What can I say - it shares the flaws of Mod Nation racers, and while the customization is nice - it isn't enough to justify the lack of multiplayer (in a karting game - for shame) and just generic nature of the game. A big disappointment. |

“LittleBigPlanet Karting” (“LBP Karting”) is the long-awaited ‘official’ entry of the ‘LittleBigPlanet’ franchise into the go-kart racing subgenre. After United Front released “ModNation” racers, it seemed like a little bit of down-tweaking to the AI’s evil and a little more sackcloth were all that was needed to create the ‘Mario Kart’ killer Sony so desperately wanted. Would United Front and Media Molecule working together be able to provide the winning formula, or would something go horribly wrong?
Presentation
“LBP Karting” looks exactly like the other games in the ‘LittleBigPlanet’ franchise. There is even a significant amount of overlap in the unlockable building and customization goodies. “LBP Karting” is, for all intents and purposes... |

Then Media Molecule didn't review their work very well. Anyone with any input into the game is at fault. |

Hey, now, don't bitch out Media Molecule - they had nothing to do with this game. This game was developed by United Front, the same clowns who made ModNation Racers. |

If you are buying this game for the multiplayer aspects, beware. Media Molecule got this one all wrong. All karting games are designed to have a strong multiplaying feature to them, making them a great game to buy for having friends over to play and socialize. This game only has networked multiplayer. Most of the game supports only two local players, despite labeling their levels for players 1 - 4. This is in itself makes this game a terrible selling point, which they cover up by supplying a handful of levels that do support 4 local players, just so they can put in the description on websites selling the game. I would strongly suggest boycotting this game until Media Molecule and Sony add in the ability to have 4 local players for all tracks. Right now they are trying to pull a fast one on buyers, and want to rake in the money by forcing everyone and their dog to own the game, and "socialize" by playing networked over the Internet. And that simply is not very fun. |
