This is a fantastic way to kick off LBP2. Great job team!

[Gravel•]

Mm announces new power-up... coming 'soon'... The Illuminator?

[Macnme]

well, LBP is groundbreaking, so no reason why it shouldn't be record breaking aswell.

[psyntens]

I´m watching since yesterday is funny and is the oportunity for the people what dont live in NYC

[oldage]

my fraps is ready to record CC's chat session (in 1 1/2 hours apparantly)

[wolverine_2008]

Not surprised

LBP2 is just pure awesome-ness it should get the Title "best videogame in the history of forever and ever" from guiness (is that how you spell it?)

[RockSauron]

my fraps is ready to record CC's chat session (in 1 1/2 hours apparantly)

Ok, good. Glad someone will

But yep, it seems like it'll be in 10 minutes. I'm gonna watch Just letting you know that he will be on in 10 or so minutes it seems and then yep.

[oldage]

he'll be on the random cam right?

[Jedi_1993]

I'm staying up late for CC's chat.

Oh and 7 hours ago they announced the 'Movinator' I asked when it's likely to be out. They said they weren't allowed to comment any further.
I'm assuming it is a controllinator for move with a similar button layout circuit-board.

Edit: Saw the chat. Well done CC, you did us all proud!

[oldage]

recorded, now to process it with sony vegas and upload it.

think it's for tommorow

[Snappyguy]

I asked about what they thought of Modnation Racers and now they are making a KB level :O These guys are the best!

[Mr_T-Shirt]

Highlights: Jersey Shore Visits. (Idontthinkso)

Foofles interview is a highlight. Upload that, not two scumbags who couldn't give a crap about the game.

This ladies and gentleman is the real life equivalent of those comments we all see saying: "Plz ply my lvl!!"

[Snappyguy]

I saw that Jersey Shore thing. "So you're here at the LBP2 marathon."" Yeah"..............."So what's in the new season?"

[DaSackBoy]

Aw man, wish I remembered to watch it a bit. Of course as soon as I got home I unboxed LBP2, so I had my mind pre-occupied.

Looks great so far, keep up the record!

[Snappyguy]

It's still going on if you want to watch. Naomi is making this sweet neon level.

By the way, anyone catch the start of the Race Creation tutorial? I missed it and I want to know how he was editing that car but making it spawn somewhere else without changing the emitter settings.

Fixed it for ya! It's not Lugey, it's Naomi from Mm.

[jEpiik]

Watched a bit of the program yesterday, but I don't think many U.S. viewers were on today, you know, busy playing their new game. Lol.
Should have held the event at least a week ago to get more people hyped up for it.


But then again, I guess that would defeat the purpose since you guys are playing user created levels...
