HONORS: 2011 Winner BAFTA Video Game Awards in the Family and Best Innovation categories

REVIEW:  Little Big Planet 2 features the same main character from the original title, the loveable animated knitted stuffed toy, Sackboy. The game offers a number of different play styles including the basic platformer levels (similar to the familiar Mario Bros. play style), but also players can also find racing, puzzle games, multiplayer shooters, and role-playing games. The game also offers players a great deal of customizable content including the game interface and display and the creation of non-played characters with customizable artificial intelligence.

OPINION: I greatly enjoyed the first Little Big Planet and was eager to try out the sequel. It did not disappoint! It has something for everyone with the variety of play style options and custom features. I was not able to experience the how the game works on multiplayer, but there are multiplayer options.

IDEAS: This item would likely work best simply as a circulated video game, but depending on how well the multiplayer functions, it could be a fine addition to a video game event.
