LittleBigPlanet 2
First Impressions:
So I ordered the collector edition of LBP 2 in August and got it on the release date of January 18
I totally wanted the plush doll and quite happy with now.
The bookends are pretty cool just another nerdy addition to my game library.
The DLC costumes worth it as well.
Just for the extras I'm quite happy with what I paid for.
So What Did I Think of the Game?
I just now beat the whole game and going back to perfect some levels and try creating one. I also want to try the game with 3 more friends, but I have to say... dang this game is fun!
If you haven't played the first LBP it isn't necessary to play the first one, but it may get some time to get used to the controls mainly the jumping.
For those who have played the first one this game, it is a must have especially if you really liked creating levels in the first LBP.
There's so much added content to the game and creation that I know I'm going to have this game for quite awhile. So check it out!

Why Kids Shouldn't play Call of Duty
I swear there's nothing I hate more as a gamer is playing a rated M game (Call of Duty, Halo, Killzone 2, take your pick) and hearing a little kid in multiplayer. Not only is it an earsore to hear these kids talk, but annoys me in a lot more ways than just the fact of getting my eardrums ruptured by their constant screaming and annoying babble.
To me this shows bad parenting (my opinion go against me if you will)
My parents were very strict about what games I played until I was at least 16. I was forbidden to play shooters even Teen ones because my Dad simply didn't want me to. He was okay with me watchign violent movies though as long as it was with him. I didn't really know his real reasoning, but I can assume he didn't want me to be the one doing the shooting real or not and at least mature a bit more and differentiate between enjoying a shooting game or enjoying the emulation of killing someone for fun, which I may bring into real life. Now I play shooters just because if appeals to my human nature to hunt, but at the same time I already know that the feelings just for the game and the competition and nothing more. That's at least how much I can explain it.
I don't think most kids have that kind of restraint to differentiate between that joy of playing of a game or the joy of actually killing for fun. There's a pretty damn good reason why games are rated-M BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT FOR KIDS! I really think it's horrible parenting whenever a parent let's a kid play a rated-M game you're pretty much risking exposing them to violence and gore and making them more sensitive to it. I know I sound like Jack Thompson but hey there's other reasons for my benefits and others why kids shouldn't be on Call of Duty.
Kids are annoying!
I'm not saying it in a bad way, well yes I am... but here me out. Okay most of us where pretty obnoxious and talked a lot as children. But it's natural and we can't help it. Hell the reason why we're overly self conscious and a bit more reserved as teenagers is because someone, mostly an older teenager or person, told us to shut up when we were little and we know what annoying brats when we were little.
So in the gaming lobby I know any gamer 16+ groan when a little kid is in the lobby and talking his little butt off. I don't blame them it's natural, but please what parent let you play and torture us? I have to deal with little cousins like this so why do I want to in this game?
I could take a Nazi, foreigner that doesn't speak english, girl, jerk, noob tuber, camper, etc., but once I hear a voice that hasn't hit puberty yet >:(
Kids really shouldn't be exposed to the adult crowd especailly the gaming adult crowd
For my own good and others I usually don't play with a mic due to my excessive swearing and cussing while playing whenever I get killed. So ya kids shouldn't be exposed to the gamers that don't show the same constraint like me. Teenage jokes, which usually consist of drugs, sex, and your mom shouldn't be what little kids should be listening to and no doubt they'll be imitating that in their lame way. We know we did that when we were little. When you heard the new cuss word from your friends you had to try it out, but by the time you use it on the daily you were old enough to be using them with your friends.
So in conclusion kids shouldn't be playing rated-M games or the alternative shut up while they play Call of Duty or Halo, but that's highly unlikely. In my opinion childhood should be consisting of playing outside even to preteen years. And if it comes to video games, there are already good non rated-M game out there. The Call of Duty multiplayer lobby isn't one of the places that one's childhood should be spent because once you enter it you'll loose it very quickly and regret somewhere along the way..... And be causing many a teenager to suffer in your obnoxious rambling about how you're so "good" because quite frankly no one cares.
