Voluntary Game Hosting: An Aide in the fight Against "MM" and "Cool" Steamrolling
I personally think you should be able to voluntarily host. That is, press a button, sit back, and let LBP pull people who are "diving in" directly into the pod that someone is voluntarily hosting from. This will create more traffic for game creators and help stop the fact that the MM picks and "Cool" picks are 99% crappy games that were fudged quickly and published promptly after the release of the game to get tons of hearts and smiles from blissfully ignorant people who aren't allowed to play the similar better levels that actually took time and effort to make them great because they didn't come out early enough to make such elitist lists.
Basically, I'm getting sick of playing the same generic crap over and over again whenever I want to play multiplayer online because the 2 Elite Lists steamroll all of the actual GOOD levels off the menu entirely.
Here are some examples of absolutely terrible levels that people play constantly even though there are ridiculously better alternatives that don't make the elite lists because people actually put the time in to make them perfect instead of releasing them in week 1 to whore hearts and thumbs. I have managed to play multiple versions of much better variations of these levels that go completely unappreciated and it's very sad:
Sacksketball (oh my god, the storymode version is better than that one)
Super LBP fighter II Turbo
Clockworx
Sackbot Versus Arena
Free Run Concept (I mean really? The boring concept level has the best rating and the awesome levels that actually use it get absolutely no recognition)
Godzilla eats Tokyo
