LBP - Missed Opportunity?? - Blu-ray Forum

garlad · 11-10-2008, 11:45 AM

I was in a games store over the weekend and a girl working in the PS3 section challanged me to a game of Motostorm 2 (the game being promoted that day - she beat me!

).

We got talking about Little Big Planet and she explained that she got it before everyone else as she received the game early to promote it in store. As she was promoting the game, she also received a file giving her EVERY collectible item in the game!!!!

Should I have asked her to send me this file???? Should I haved begged?? Paid here even!! Ok, chances are she would have said no, but if I did get it, would it have taken from the enjoyment of the game (what would the challenge be?) or would it have enhanced my experience by having access to everything when creating levels???

yeh earning them is 70% of the game... creating your own would be all thats left for you which is strictly preference on why you bought the game in the first place

At the time I would not have bothered as I would have seen it as part of the challenge that the game offers. BUT!!!! In retrospect, some of those items are a real massive pain in the ass to acquire!!! The game now has me

If you accepted the file, you wouldn't have been able to gain trophys from it due to tight restrictions on file ownership.

I'll take the file.

ok, just as well i didnt ask for it! Was just curious as to what people thought.. would they jump at the chance of maybe getting the file, or just play the game how its meant to be played!

I think the big question is this: was she hot?

Proteus · 11-10-2008, 05:21 PM

You didn't miss anything.

Getting all the items doesn't take very long actually and it's basically a big part of what makes playing the game worth it at first (prior to level creation).

So...

That only leaves one other issue to be resolved.

Was she hot?

Seriously, my initial reaction to this post was that the girl was flirting with him. But clearly the OP was too dense to notice.

Or maybe she was a bit too dense for him to want to flirt back. If you get where I'm going...

From my experiences, any girl who is beating a dude in a new racing game, is not going to be hot lol

garlad · 11-10-2008, 08:15 PM

haha! people! She was pretty fit yeah, but what could I have done with my girlfriend sitting beside me!! She wasnt a huge believer of blu ray either.. "not a fan of blu ray", she said, .. "dvd suits me fine.."

... That was my queue to walk away..

dgator783 · 11-10-2008, 08:19 PM

trying to unlock everything is the best part....i have about 85-90% of all items right now, I 100% every world so far except the last two and only have one more level to complete....the only pain in the ass ones are gonna be the 4 players needed to get some of the item balls in the later levels
