I played Sackboy with a friend who was very important to me. We had a lot of fun playing it together, laughing, helping each other through the levels, and just enjoying the time we had. Unfortunately, we never got to finish the game. Things happened, and now I know that we will never meet again or sit down and continue where we left off. Because of that, it is difficult for me to think about Sackboy as just a game...
Adding a voice for sackboy is the worst thing they ever done also we need a port for lbg 1-3 badly
there is a lot less creativity to this game than the other lbp games. There is no stickers, moons and everything looks stitched other than having weird objects with a brain and called it a day. They didn't add stephen fry for this game or called the narrator. the only character they added from all the other lbp games is zom zom. there isnt any layer swapping and thats just a minor. I will still play the game but it...
