So video games and comic books converging, does this work?


I ask because there have been only a handful of successful video games based on comic book characters (and by successful I mean as widely recognized/big profit/easily accessible and/or playable by all/most ages) while most of the rest have bombed.

One of the most anticipated Hero games being released this year is

Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions

and atop of that is Little Big Planet 2 which is being released with a slew of unlockable Marvel characters!

Ghost Rider LBP

Daredevil LBP

Doc Ock LBP

Human Torch LBP

Spidey LBP


I'm pretty excited. Image

I was jumping up and down when I saw that LBP was coming out with Marvel costumes. And you don't have to wait until Little Big Planet 2 to come out, the costumes are available for download soon, if there isn't some out already. From what I understand they are coming out in installments of a few costumes every week.

Also, If you don't have LBP, BUY IT!!! It's a ridiculous amount of fun.

Boo. I want LBP2.

The levels are only going to be in LBP2 though. The Marvel materials to make Marvel U levels, that is.

I want LBP2 too. So much it HURTS.

Do you mean the level kit? Because it says that it was released already. I haven't checked, but I'd assume you could download it today and there would already be some neat levels that other people have made. I dunno, maybe we are talking about two different things?

There's a specific one with unlockable content only accessible through LBP2 coming out.

I think "Shadowland" might be one of them >_>

It's an adorable puzzle game where you have a bunch of characters and need each of them to get to the other side of the stage: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MuoRp32W5l0

The skins they show here on the thread are the ones you can get on your little dudes

Both, it has an actual game, but there is also a section where you can make your own levels or play levels that other people have made.

The actual game that comes with the disc is only about 50 levels long, but there are over 2 million levels that other players have made that are free for play as well.

Oh.


Oh WOW.


Okay, admittedly, I thought if the 4th world was "Ultimate" it would come off repetitive, but it never occurred to me to make Ultimate Pete SYMBIOTE SUIT PETE!
