Oh sure, you think you’ve seen some impressive things made so far in LittleBigPlanet 2. Cult Valve favourite Portal perhaps? Or retro RPG Final Fantasy VII? How about a whole operating system (well almost)? A team of LBP enthusiasts have been working to build a functional homage to Windows XP in the game, and it is damn impressive.
The crazy team (Boss_Mob, SaggySackBoy, tomatenbrei and daFRED94) have recreated the operating system, including a file explorer, media player – try and guess all the music tracks lovingly recreated with LBP2’s tools – an internet browser, and even games! There’s three in the level, including a cute space shooter, and something called Celex that I won’t even pretend to understand.
I could go on about the “videos”, which are actually pre-programmed Sackbot routines to music, the authentic logon noise, or the amusing reference you’ll find in the Recycle Bin, but really you should just go and play it yourself. Unfortunately, if you don’t have the beta yourself, you’ll be waiting until January, but you can at least pretend you’re playing by full-screening the YouTube video we’ve embedded below and randomly mashing buttons on your DualShock. If you’re that desperate.
Thanks TSBonyman!

That’s insane – would love to know how long that took him to make.

I have seen some amazing things created on LBP but this tops the list by miles. It is brilliant that a game has been made that allows people to actually create things like this.

Really cannot wait for this game! I love how clever this all is. Only problem is it kinda puts me off making anything because I know I can’t compete with that level of creativity… lol

Unless there are trophies for creating levels then i don’t think i’ll be bothering with create mode.

I’ve seen some amazing things done with lbp2. I just know i won’t be able to create anything a fraction as good as this.
