When you first start Little Big Planet you are introduced to this world where all your dreams are placed, and you are also introduced to a friend that you will guide through all of it, the Sackboy. A sackboy is like a little doll that you can create into almost anything, wether it be a bunny, a dinosaur, or a bundle of noses that you placed all over him. You will guide your sackboy through all the environments people create for you, you will have to get him to the end so the little sackboy can be happy. Your sackboy has wait so whenever you move on objects it reacts to your weight, suh as buttons and dominos. So you have to be careful in certain areas.
As far as menus go you are in a "Pod" which is kind of like a spaceship. You can customize your pod however you like using stickers and items with your "pop it". Your pod is where you can go to the menus. Such as, Story, quick play, community, and another in which you can purchase items and costumes from the LBP Store. Through the story you meet many interesting charactors, explore all environments and see many vehicles and enemies. You go through collecting prize bubbles that have stickers and items in them, also you collect little bubbles that you get points from.
Little Big Planet has a Create mode where you create levels using all the stuff you earned. You create anything you want, from racing, to riding down a hill on a skateboard, or even just looking at pictures and creatures people have made. Some people even create songs that you listen to all the time. There is basically and endless amount of things you can do in that game.
The graphics in the game are fairly good, the sackboy's look like they are stitched up and the levels and design look like a pixar movie. All the textures are pretty simple, and the backgrounds look like real good drawings. There isn't much left to say about the graphics, they just look good.
Multiplayer plays a big role in the game, without it the game just wouldn'tbe as fun. You can play with four people at home or up to four people online. If you are online you cannot create any levels but you can play all the levels in the cummunity andthe story. The online in the game is actually pretty balanced. Other the the fact that it may take a while to load and lags sometimes the online is the best part of the game. It's kids friendly, and there is a chat button that you can talk to your friends with.
Little Big Planet is just an endless world of creativity and fun.
