So that should be enough youtube watching to last you the week, this is a amazing game called little big planet. It’s were you control creatures called sack boys, named from there look and texture, that are very small. It’s mainly good physics-based fun, but the main piece of candy that makes this so special is that you can create your own levels fluently.

Now, I do have a lot of creative outlets, and I’ve taken pride in level editing. A lot of the problems I come across with that is the difficulty.

Yes yes, the interesting bit is that all the editors I’ve played were designed for simplicity. But it’s the controls, and how tedious it is, that counts. With little big planet, it really takes moments to get results.

Anyway, that should all sum up the creation aspects etc.

Little big planet is awesome.

And that sums up why I’m saving up for a PS3.

Remember the post were I said that the teachers at Montessori were exaggerating high-school? Yeah, that one. Well, I just wanted to verify that I was right! They aren’t like that! I’ve been half-way tempted to visit Montessori and drive by with my bike shouting “I WAS RIGHT!” However, I’m not only more polite than that, but that would be fairly mean.

 I’ve heard that Montessori has fallen on some rather hard times, so that would seem like a sort of IN YOUR FACE maneuver. And I, Dylan Ford, am mostly against that. Well, I’d say entirely, but I don’t know myself that well in that respect.

To Montessorians, if the teachers tell you to toughen up for high-school, send them to this link!

I’m sorry, I’ve just got about 3 full screens worth of chain e-mails from all the people I met 2 years ago, and I just can’t stand it. (continued »)
