Little Big Planet: Big Time Suck

I finally caved and downloaded the demo for Little Big Planet.

I know. I know! It’s been out for a while now and heck, it’s even been re-released in a Game of the Year Edition.

Talk about being way over fashionably late to the party.

But you know, I’ve been in such a gaming funk here recently that nothing has interested me much. Well, not until today.

I downloaded the demo because I was procrastinating and I didn’t want to play anything that would tax me too much in the brain department.

After what seemed like fifty years [because I had to install 3 freakin' updates to my PS3], I was finally able to load the demo and it rocked.

First off, this was one of the longest demos that I’ve played in a while. I was able to play three different levels and a cool fan created level and I was able to go back and re-play the levels to try and get 100% on everything.

Even though the concept of the game is simple [it's a puzzle game with cute characters], I wasn’t bored. In fact, I was bummed when the demo ended and now I’m sitting here writing this and thinking about playing the demo again…at least until I can get my butt to the store and buy the Game of the Year Edition.
