Gameplay
What if you were given the challenge to maneuver a race car through a flaming hoop, say 20-30-40 feet up in the air. Think you could do it? What if it had to be done with balloons? Or perhaps using so many variables that it looks like a Rube Goldberg machine? Of course this is a pretty ridiculous request, but assuming the suspension of everyday reality and belief, and an assortment of malleable if unlikely objects, could you make it happen? This is the crux of Create. Consisting of a large series of puzzle challenges tending towards the outrageous, players must use their imaginations and objects provided or already part of their in-game possessions to succeed. With success comes additional items that can be used in later endeavors, if not ruled out by the challenge at hand. Challenges are set within a variety of base game worlds that can also be customized using an in-game toolset, and player creations can also be saved, reused, edited and even shared with others online, who can also then edit them for their own use. An additional exclusive feature of the PlayStation 3 version of the game is compatibility with the PlayStation Move control system which allows players to create in new ways using the systems motion controlled tools.

Still, it could be kind of interesting, depending on what you can create. I don't know if the physics model is as flexible as LBP.
It doesn't seem to be very exciting. I guess it's like setting up dominoes and watching them knock each other over. Mildly amusing, but not all that engaging.
First: This is NOT a platformer. It cannot be compared to Little Big Planet or Super Mario.
This is a puzzle game and, as another reviewer noted, a good reminder of "The Incredible Machine". If you're fan of that genre, you'll have fun. If you want to create contraptions just to see what can be done, it's good too, although Little Big Planet is doing a better job at it (that's the only part of this game that can be compared).
If you buy this game for a young kid, he can be frustrated very quickly. It can be challenging to go through all the levels.
So look at the description of the game before buying it. It's a great game in its genre and there are too few of them.
I'll start with the cons. I did not use the Move controls, so I can't comment on those. Given the amount of control you have in item placing/tweaking, the menus unfortunately get a bit clunky and confusing to navigate. Fixing an error you made in placing an item (and you will make many) can be quite daunting sometimes. The game has far too much loading time. At its core, the game does fall into trial and error, because just 1 pixel can completely change your entire setup, so you have to be very patient for some of these puzzles.
And on to the pros. Again since you have so much control, you really can do anything you want. Don't feel like building a vehicle to transport stuff? Try dropping an explosive on it to send it flying into the goal. Having trouble getting a ball across the level? Put some rockets behind some cars and zoom it away! The utter freedom you have with your solutions is just amazing, and will heavily test your critical thinking skills as well. Honestly, that's all the pro you need. If you like this style of puzzling, you'll be addicted in no time.
And that should sum it up. People can freely upload their solutions to the create website, and you can just see how creative people get with their solutions. The one that always stuck in my mind was being tasked to build a vehicle to get a ball on to a platform. The person's solution was to build a series of rotating platforms that bounced the ball around until landing it on the platform.... Read more ›
