The LBP crew made sure that everyone who stopped by their booth got this huge bag for putting other swag in, putting them in hot competition with Resistance 2 for huge bag market saturation. Everyone had mostly empty huge bags from either LBP or R2. Unfortunately, I have been super unimpressed by the swag thus far. But, this is probably the most disappointing part of PAX so far, and its a very minor complaint. I am having a blast.
The first thing I saw was sackpeople riding a boot elevator that worked like a balance. Ride the boot up and continue further on your adventure. Think of it as playing as a burlap person who runs around inside a Rube Goldberg machine. Totally sweet. Competitive co-op is done pretty well here. Players work together to make their way through, but at the end of each stage the winner is declared. On the demo machine here at PAX the winning co-op player the winner got their picture taken and placed on the games' internal digital "Wall of Awesome" to rounds of applause and cheering from the watching crowd. Good times.
In summary, LBP looks ridiculously fun and cool for co-op play but it is just a shame that its PS3 only, because I will never be able to play it more than casually. I don't really think it should be cast as a "system seller", but I must admit that this one game makes me very happy to have a PS3.
