LBP is a platformer..
u need to look at the background of the game to know what the hype is about
but to sum it up in general.. people are looking forward to the user created levels that anyone can make and upload to the global server.. that is the main reason for the HYPE
LBP's gameplay is indeed a platformer, it cant get any simpler than that, any old school gamers who played 2d mario, or Sonic, or DKC would appreciate the gameplay this game has, collecting things on levels, solving puzzles, find hidden path etc... there is a single player gameplay with several levels, but its more of an introduction by developers to give anyone ideas, on how to make their levels..
its a simple game.. but this one is a gem.. look at the youtube vids for the gameplay, if you like what you see, pick it up, if you think its too simple and not worth ur $60 then no loss.... official game reviews for the game will also tell you the same thing..
btw, anyone got the game and having problems connecting to the server?

^ my gf and I got LBP and are having the same problems connecting to server, same with another friend of mine. I think it's global for now, they released a patch but that did nothing for online.
And I think you are bang on about the hype thing, even playing the creator created levels is fun with a friend on the same console!

I'll probably pick up LBP in a couple of weeks. It'll give users time to create levels and server issues should be resolved by then.

I'm passing on LBP. I had the beta and didn't think it was that...
Picked up Socom and I don't know what it is but I don't like it. I didn't really like COD4 either...I used to love FPS but these two just didn't do anything for me.
I dunno....maybe I'm getting old...
I think I'll see if I can find a cheap used copy of Ratchet & Clank....

just found out that the LBP servers arent up yet..
because shipments werent expecting to come this early, so assume either on tuesday or later in the week, they will be up and running
im just trying to get through the "campaign" in LBP... even the offline levels are pretty good, its addicting to collect the bubbles and the stickers.. and trophy support FTW!!!!
but ya, they need to patch up the platforming controls on Sackboy, jumping seems a little off for like a fraction of a second, and sometimes i would die for no reason on some part of the levels..

my ps3 disconnects me a lot too... fucking horrible.
when i moved out my roommate brought his shitty microsoft router though, and i left my linksys w/ my parents.. could be the reason as well
