Starting July 7th, an awesome set of four packs containing various Marvel heroes (and villains!) will begin making their way to the PlayStation Store. The first will hit the store July 7th, with each successive pack releasing every other following week. If we've done our math right, you can look forward to new Marvel costumes the weeks of July 7th, July 21st, August 4th, and August 18th. There's even a matching Level Kit on the way, with four Marvel-themed levels full to the brim with music, objects, materials, stickers, and even a special “Rooftop” background for you to collect. Even more details on the Level Kit are on their way next week!

I'm really happy with this pack. I love it's visual style, LBP's story mode was mostly all about the materials but now MM have discovered all these textures. I know some people don't like the visuals, but I love them. The gameplay is amazing.
Very smart ideas based on the Marvel world like Thor bashing Venom with his hammer causing a kind of earthquake on a building every few seconds, Magneto taking objects away and putting them back, Doc Ock's tentacles used as a ladder, Galactus bringing a building down with you in it, the list is really long...
The 2nd level is really fun. Not the best of gameplay, just that it had the most marvel guys in it. And sprinting away through the highway.
I was a little disappointed with the boss. It is a good concept but I think I would have been more content with sackboy fighting all the villains. Eh, Goblin and Magneto show up to save me from fan boy hunger so I'm ok.
These levels are AWESOME! These are definitely my favourite of all the levels they've ever made, I wasn't expecting much seeing as they're working on LBP2, but oh my god... AMAZING!
EDIT: Did anyone notice how for the first time ever they used sounds from another level kit, I heard an MGS sound and a monster kit sound.
Yes it also said 'sound effects' but I don't see any new sound effect object. It's actually an offence under the trade descriptions act to say things have something you're paying for when in actual fact they don't.
I've said it before and will keep on saying it too, that LBP cameras are USELESS and nowhere more so than in this kit. The levels are great fun but the cameras make multiplayer an absolute nightmare. I see no good reason why Mm can't give us the LBP2 cameras for use in LBP1. WHY NOT !!

haha whooaaaa calm downnnn.
they wouldntve put those camers in these levels anyway. because that would limit playing offline. i'd imagine that they won't use it in the LBP2 story levels either. at least, i hope they don't.
i for one prefer playing offline multiplayer so this is totally okay with me
I only had one moment where I even noticed the cameras... Issue #3 in front of the cut-out of daredevil it is clear you are stradaling two zones as the camera waffled rather slowly... deciding which to go with. But outside of that-- no problems to report! they're might have been a cutscene or two that caused me a death or two but htat is inevitable when your chasing after Morgana holding her back!
personally i think this is my favorite pack (apart from POTC) it contains lots of useful objects, stickers and decorations since the POTC pack. (window decorations should knock down thermo by half for city levels they did for my Iron man two level).
At times the level where a little frustrating but that would be my only criticism otherwise they were really original and fun!
as I am short for cash I'm sticking to Iron Man costume it always reminds me of a famous line in shrek - "ahh, look at him in his wee little boots" (scottish accent).
I'm not so certain this time. It looks way too far back... I actually stopped playing to mess about with it. If it's in the normal layers, then that means there is only 1 thick layer separating that background from the closer one. It just doesn't seem possible.
I've also noticed that they are using rtm's waterfall technique at multiple points. The obvious one being the elevators that continuously rise in Level 3. There's no other way to do that.
Its the 3D glitch. The highway is two thick layers. Behind these two is one thick layer. The thin buildings go about 2 more thick layers back, which means 3D glitch. Also, is it me or is the 4x challenge IMPOSSIBLE?
I spent half an hour trying to actually do it (my friends decided to act like idiots), and when we finally got it right, it was my turn to jump on top of the crate thingies. I jumped for the prize bubbles, got the first two..then something pushed me back. SOMETHING. PUSHED ME. BACK. Literally, I didnt move my analog stick to the right, but somehow I was thrown into spikes, ON our last life. Those two prize bubbles that got away will haunt me for the rest of my life.

I'll look at it again, before I tried sticking decorations on it and they seemed close, but it's difficult to judge whether it's on the normal layers or if it's in the the second or so layer of the glitch layers.
Also, if they do use it, then I can finally stop calling it the glitch layers, extra or distant layers sound better.
Ok, I just looked at it, it's definitely 100% layer glitch (Not exactly a glitch when they use it though).
It's obvious when you work it out.
The truck is in 2 thick playable layers, yes? Then there's the houses which are 1 layer thick. There's a gap between them and the truck. Then there's the thin house in the background, there's even more space between them and the thick layers.
So they've used it, which is a good sign, this means we may be seeing it as an official tool in LBP2 maybe, I think that was just a little teaser to tell us to expect it. They know how good the community are at spotting these things, lol.
Anyone else was a bit dissappointed to find out that Doc Ock's Tentacle arms use the torso-slot instead of the back-slot?
Was hoping to use them in combination with other costumes but it's not possible like this.

Yeah, I wanted to make the version of Doc Oc from Spiderman 2 so I was a little disappointed.
I thought they would occupy the "neck" section like that psycho mantis costume piece...

Same Shelby's coat would have look great with the tentacles.
Anyway, I definitely love the levels ! Mm's urban levels (the Incredibles, Marvel) are really the best urban levels. And I finally managed to get a 100% score in every level.
By the way, I think there's gonna be some videos on Youtube soon, but I've just taken some screenshots of the first level anyway.

Yeah, you keep on telling yourself that
I haven't played these, I broke my intornetz on the PS3 and for some reason, I'm not in that much of a rush to actually bother lol.
