I'm sure if MM had their way they would not be making a sequel, or using the move. Now that Sony owns MM I'm sure they have less say in the whole thing.
Jim, you seem to overlook the "create" aspect of LTB, which is quite important, and Move will let players create levels real fast with high precision. Of course running and jumping is best suited to the standard controller. Move support will be god given for people who like to create levels.
Ooooo! I loved LBP! Still not sure about the Playstation Move yet. I just hope it doesn't turn too gimicky.
I really don't think MM were lying when they said they didn't want to make a sequel. I've got a feeling Sony "convinced" them to...
They've demoed Move in LBP. I don't think there's really any merit in creating an LBP2 as opposed to continuing to expand on the original as they've done up to now. Since launch they've released the paintball guns, water and soon Move integration, all of which are game changers.
The only way to justify a second would be to completely rework the creation around the use of the PS Move, which would be great for the less patient among us. I still think it would make more sense to rework it within the original title.

This is pretty wild (assuming it's true) because I had a dream last night about a true sequel to LBP, namely, LBP2. And when I encountered it in my dream, I didn't give it a second thought. I was like, "cool."
True story.

After seeing the Minority Report style tech demo (on Endgadget TV?) I'm super stoked about LBP creation plus move.
LBP is brilliant, but creating with a controller is extremely time consuming and can be quite frustrating.
Now the whole, dragging, dropping, 3D mouse, twisting, turning, perspective changing action they showed with the Move on endgadget will fit LBP perfectly. IMHO.

Something tells me that a second LBP would sell less than the original, unless it completely revolutionizes the mechanics in the first game.
Adding Move isn't going to be all it takes.

I hope they keep the Move bit as an optional control mechanism. I like LBP, but I'm not too sure about Move yet.
After playing LBP for the first time last week (wicked fun by the way) I think I'd prefer a controller. I'm open minded about Move and all but unlike the Wii and most platformers in general LBP has a lot of physics going on. Not just in the envirnments but in the characters and how they move too. There's some real weight to how you move and into your character. I couldn't see that translating well into a Wii-esque setup. Just my opinion. For me personally I think it'd be terribly uncomfortable and iffy for precise platforming. Of course that's assuming motion is what controls the platforming. They could use buttons and use the motion control for other things. I could see that working.
All that said it could totally make level editing less of a pain in the ass.

I hope they shoe-horn some Sony-Waggle into Home so my Mii-like avatar can have some Wii-like escapades!
What they could do is make a LBP that is mostly Move. I know it doesn't sound like the best idea but I think it would be better than making the same game over again and putting a 2 at the end.
Yeah this game would benefit HUGELY from move. Making level with a controller just isn't very effective.
I personally cannot stand the analogs as the control of the free navigated 2.5D game maker.
If Move is like Wii Motion Plus, I think it could work great.

Didn't they say awhile back that there would never be a LBP2? I thought they would just keep doing expansions, which is what this should be. I imagine the Move support for this game would be sort of like Nyx Quest where you point at blocks and click and drag them around the screen to solve puzzles, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Nyx Quest is one of my favorite WiiWare games. But I just don't think it would work with LBP. It would over complicate things. I don't even understand how that would work with multiplayer. Are we going to have to fight over who is controlling what block? But maybe that isn't how they're going to use the Move. It just seems like the most obvious way to work the Move controller into a game like this.
Eh... Move levels better be a bonus... Move better not be mandatory. I don't want to have to purchase that waggle-gimmick piece of shit. I guess I won't be purchasing the second one.

Re: Only idiots blame the 360 for FF XIII's problems
People who read Jim Sterling articles are pretty stupid, too. You should write an article on that.
Re: Four years of Destructoid: A collection of wacky memories
Wonder what it's like working with a douchebag like Jim Sterling. Do you have to put your lunches that you bring in under lock and key?
Re: Why Sonic the Hedgehog 4 will SUCK
Why this article will suck: It's written by the useless Jim Sterling.

And as usual, the comments are overflowing with people lining up to gobble Jim's tiny little johnson.
Re: The joys of being a videogame reviewer
Waaaaah, waaaaah... Jim "Chubbs" Sterling whips up troll articles and reviews to get attention, and then cries when he gets it. You're useless.
Re: Here's what Heavy Rain's 'The Taxidermist' DLC looks like
Sorry Jimbo. The response thus far has been pretty well positive. I know how much you hate that, too. Sorry. :)
Re: How Heavy Rain has lowered the bar for game narrative
Wow, moron. We get it. You hate Sony. Shut the hell up about it.
Re: Review: Deadly Premonition
And Jim Sterling continues to cement his place in history as the most worthless video game reviewer in the history of this industry. Well done, chubbs.
Re: Deadly Premonition is blatantly better than Heavy Rain
Hey, alright. It's big fat and useless Jim Sterling, in with another winner of an article!
Re: Videogame 'fans' need to shut up about everything
I don't really find much fault with video game fans. I would however support Jim Sterling shutting up.
It should be noted that two of these articles were neither written by nor commented on by Jim, and yet you still, somehow, managed to drag him into the conversation.
You really need to get a life.

Last I checked, LBP was a 1.5m+ (is it 2m now? even more?) seller and is one of the flagship exclusive franchises for the PS3. The online mode has over 3000 levels being created every single day and 1,250,000+ available to play right now.
So uh, how is this not a big franchise or not as big as Sony wanted, or is Jim just trolling me?

I was always sad that the Nintendo didn't pick up MM. I really wanted to use the wii remote for level construction. Guess this answers that problem!
(Although.. I'm still not likely to get it seeing as I don't have a ps3 yet and I have no intention of purchasing Move ever)

@Narishma So the journalist who wrote the article is trolling? Just came over from another website, not used to this sort of thing...
