LittleBigPlanet - game looks awesome. Platformer with crazy physics, a 3d place, and the ability to create some crazy levels of your own.

Fable II: This game will own. You have a fog and a musket. Nuff said!

So what are you looking forward too?
Did you get Dead Space? Wondering what you think.

Yep, haven't gotten that far but I really like it. It's very unusual, think survival horror but with a real b-movie feel to it. The combat is pretty good (it's awesome how you have to delimb the space zombies) level design is fantastic (hard to describe, gothic space station?), enemy design is excellent and different, AI is decent, weapons are pretty unique, voice acting is pretty good, music is good, and I like the upgradable weapons/suit options. It is a very dark game, lot's of disturbing moments that genuinely scared me. I haven't finished it yet but i'm really digging it so far, def worth a look Sean.

Thanks for the review (so far), bro! I'm probably going to pull the trigger.

Still feel the same after a few days? Worth the money? I hear it is kinda short... I may take some old games to town and do a trade.

Little Big Planet has been recalled? I don't have a PS3 so I am not affected, but someone on this thread was waiting for this one.

I expect an e-mail any minute to tell me fable2 has shipped...can't wait. I know what I am doing tomorrow night

LBP got delayed over a song that had some lines from the quran in it. Silly if you ask me, but that just means I will have more time with Fable 2. Tomorrow can't come soon enough!
