just stating a opinion not a hate message.

Ok now i'll say this as a rebuttle, has anyone played little big planet? its a plateformer made by sony and sells well, so with that not only can nintendo make good platforming games but sony can too, reason being is that if nintendo gets ahold of spyro & or crash then literally there's only 2 platformers that the other consoles have and they are both are on the PS3, exmaple little big planet and ratchet and clank. So if nintendo nabs spyro and crash then well the Xbox more so than the PS3 will have nothing, because man nintendo has mario, donkey kong, kirby, metroid, zelda, sonic (now) man i wonder what other titles they have now. Too many its like Ford taking the vette or vice versa. someone has to compete against nintendo and if done right spyro CAN compete against the big guns. If a good company that does the research of what spyro is about and trys their best to bring him up the nit will be sucessful, NFS series was dying badly but EA changed developers to the same people who did burnout and now the NFS series is back ontop and expected to do great. So its possible guys for spyro to do well on all platforms. sierra did a good thing on choosing EL to make a great looking game but..... did overlooked the actual gameplay so 1 step forward two steps back. I wish it wouldnt be a nintendo exclusive and hope its just a one year thing where they are just trying something new.

Odds are the models would be the same from DotD.

ANB is on the Xbox Originals section of the Xbox Live Marketplace(It's how I got the game recently!). It has been there for a few years, I think. However, TEN and DotD are not there, as far as I know. However, when I put in DotD on my 360, it says "Play Legend of Spyro" in the disc section of the menu. So maybe they are putting DotD in the "Games on Demand" section of the marketplace.

^ Oh, I saw ANB on the marketplace.

...Right, since I don't own a 360, I've no idea what you're talking about. Do you mean an online shop to buy old games, like the Playstation Store?

And to what S240sx24 (that's a mouthful!) said, that's the reason I own a PS3 and not an XBox 360; it has amazing old-school, yet futuristic platformers. 360 has shooters, shooters, shooters. OH! And they butchered Rareware. Seriously, Bill Gates, take one of the best developers (plus they're British!) and cancel all of their projects like Conker 2? I hate you, Microsoft. Yes, I'm saying that on a Microsoft computer. DERP.

If ELB does the game I want new models. The guradians had rounded paws, like they were balancing on balls set into thier feet and Iggy had that constant smile, even when he was DIEING for god's sake! And of course let's not forget the Cynder fiasco!

I'd like a different developer who can make the games look more cartoony and less super next-gen real like they tried to do.

So does the PS3, but you choose not to play them because I'm guessing you don't like shooters. Considering you don't own a 360, you probabaly don't pay any attention to the games that arn't shooters... Only the games that get the most hype like Halo, GOW and COD (which is multi-platform anyway).

To be honest, I can't think of any critically acclaimed non-shooter 360 exclusives, and looking at the list of Xbox 360 exclusives on wikipedia, there aren't really any that do catch my attention. Nuts and Bolts interested me when it was first released, but I've heard from friends it doesn't do justice to the originals. Viva Pinata did, too, but it isn't a 360 exclusive anymore.

viva pinata was 360 exclusive? Wow... I figured that would have been multiplatform from the start... What type of game is that anyway?

I like the DotD style, so I don't mind if they keep it. I like "semi-realism". However, I won't mind a change in art style(unless it's bad).

Most 360 exclusives are shooters....if you're talking disc-based games. But there are plenty of amazing digitaly distributed games on the Marketplace.

But PS3 has LBP2, so....yeah....

What's LPB?

LittleBigPlanet.
It's a game centered around building your own levels, and sharing them online.

However, the sequel, LittleBigPlanet 2, was released yesterday in Europe. It let's you create whole games....yes, you read that correctly - WHOLE GAMES!

I CAN DO THAT ANYWAY WITH GAMEMAKER LOL

Just kidding. I'm curious about LBP, I've seen it advertised but I've never gone as far as to check it out. Depends on what downloadable content you have to pay for (read: If it means I have to pay for everything I like).

WHOLE GAMES?! Damn, I need LBP2!! Oh, and the new Ratchet game is upto 4-player

And Viva Pinata started as an XBox exclusive, but Microsoft saw the sales and reviews were good so they milked more money out of it- they care more about money then quality, hense the many shooters, since they sell the best, and the Live subscription fees. Oh, and to SpyroLUVA, it was made by Rare and it's a simulation game, like Spore or the Sims.

You haven't played LBP?! The horror!

You can pay for extra costumes (E.G: Ratchet and Clank costumes, Metal Gear costumes, The Incredibles costumes and so on) via PSN but that's mainly for famous characters- things like animal costumes (my sackboy is a 'dead' Zebra ), normal clothes and other random stuff is found in-game. Plus, you can use stickers on your sackboy; par example, I could make my sackboy plain white then paste lot's of flowers, kisses or LOL's onto him. I like making big, buff sackboy's then pasting a lovely pair of huge lips onto them

In the first one, there was a TON of downloadable content. Some of this was game-changing stuff. However, they are all on the LBP2 disc anyway, so if you don't plan to get the first one, there is not much of a problem. However, I'm not sure if the objects and costumes collected in the first games story can be obtained without importing a save file of the first one.

I've seen LittleBigPlanet on YouTube, I don't like it, lol.

*Facepalm* You've never played it and you don't like it?

In LBP1, the limit for stickers/decorations on your Sackperson is 9(the number is separate for both stickers and decorations).

In LBP2, it could very well be unlimited. I placed tons of them on him and they never got deleted!
I used it to improve my Cynder costume from LBP1!
Will probably improve more...

Haha, a Cynder costume? Do want! Is there a way of sending costumes online?

You can in LBP2. But not in LBP1.

To do it in LBP2, put the costume on a SackBot, then put the SackBot in a prize bubble(or, send it directly, to your friend).

The receiver must then go to the SackBot's tweak menu, open the costume editor, and select "Save Costume". It will now be in your saved costumes, and can be used on your real Sackperson.

I think that's how it works anyway. I haven't tried it, but there is a YouTube video of someone doing it in the Beta.

Cool. I'm intrigued.... May have to check it out, I'll probably just go for 2 though - Unless there's something in the first that I need?

Well, you don't NEED the costumes and what not from LBP1 to enjoy LBP2, but they would enhance the experience I guess.

No matter what one you get....just don't expect creation to be a cakewalk. It's preety much like making an actual retail game.

Yeah, I made a few games before on Game Maker..... They weren't that easy, and took a lot of time and effort. But still, the end result is always worth it

Aw, damn... I've only got LBP 1

Well I've seen gameplay of it, and that's all I need to see, and it looks stupid.

LBP has realistic physics, so keep that in mind when getting it.
LBP2's gravity and physics can be changed though.

@Spyroo what console is Gmae Maker for? How old it it and where can I get it?

@Spyroo what console is Gmae Maker for? How old it it and where can I get it?

It's actually a downloadable program - Search it on Google, it's made by YoYo Games. It might look complicated at first, but it's actually quite easy when you've got the hang of it!

Do you need to be good at scripting to use Game Maker? I haven't tried scripting yet, and don't know a thing about scripting.

Nope, although some elements can be done quicker that way. The tutorials that exist out there are also good, it didn't take me long to pick it up.

M'kay, I'll get it sometime. I still haven't properly tried LBP2's creation mode though!

Hehe, we're using Game Maker at school in ICT

Thing is, it was my last year of School and as a result of poor teaching, I failed, only like two or three people managed to pass. It was ridiculous.

I passed, but I just self taught myself after. I mean what I say when I say that secondary school was a waste of my life - I learnt nothing that I wanted to, just crap I haven't used since. We also had problems understanding our teachers as English wasn't their native language - One of them was even stupid enough to lock us in the room (!!!) all because of one student. Bah.

One word: Kameo.

I've never played a LBP game. I mostly stick to the Wii, my brother has the Xbox 360. Nintendo does well as making platformers, especially titles like Kirby's Epic Yarn. I'm not really a fan of shooters, so I'll stay away from the Xbox and PS3 and stick to my Nintendo and 3rd party games.

Never played LBP, and odds are never will

Won't be able to play LBP either.

I perfectly happy with the following 'create your own' games

RollerCoaster Tycoon Deluxe
RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 Triple Thrill Pack
RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Platinum
Zoo Tycoon Complete Collection
Monopoly Tycoon (a monopoly-themed Sim City)

Drawn to Life
Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter

ThrillVille: Off the Rails

I would love to try out LBP.

But for now I'm satisfied with WarioWare DIY.

Monopoly Tycoon = Best "do it yourself" game EVER!!!

I disagree.

I don't.

I hate all of the 'Tycoon' games, but then again I dislike most PC games.

Drawn To Life 1- Great!
Drawn To Life 2- A crummier version with a much worse, less gripping storyline and less fun gameplay.(IMO)

I don't play many D.I.Y games. For the most part, WarioWare is the only one that I actually ever owned and took full interest in.

Drawn to life 1 was f'ing awesome!!

Drawn to life 2's final cutscene was sad. I nearly cried.

if you thought the end of that was sad, you would cry until you drowned at the end of Professor Layton 3- *shot*

Not *shot*

...What happened at the end of ths 'profressor layton'?
I don't know.
Drawn to life 2 was okay-*sniped*
But not as good as the first game.
