''But something we’ve also added is keyboard and mouse support for the PS3, so you can draw things and navigate Pop-it with a mouse and stuff."

Misschien dat ik er overheen gelezen heb, maar zijn de controls van de Sackboys nou ook beter? Bij deel 1 zijn de controls nogal 'zweverig'.

Media Molecule couldn't simply reprogram Sackboy's floaty jump, because the developer wants all levels created in the original game to still work when they're brought across. You will have the option to "fix" it for yourself, however, via the Popit menu.

Now you just build the object that you want to work as your car, and then you stick on the Direct Control chair. Once Sackboy's sat down, depending on how you've reprogrammed your DualShock, you can steer it via tilt, via triggers, via thumbsticks, or even via face buttons.

See it in action, and it's clear how much this changes things. Cars are no longer wobbly to use, slow to respond, and prone to rocket-powered unpredictability. And why stop at cars? Direct control allows you to create vehicles you can use for sections that play out as racers certainly, but it also opens the door to scrolling shooters, and even RTS games (these will be aided by the fact you can now use a new neon material to create stick-on HUDs).

Expanding upon a game that is already as deep as LittleBigPlanet is a daring approach to take for a sequel, but it's hard not to applaud it. And while every new addition threatens to take a fiddly experience and make it even fiddlier, it's also worth remembering that Media Molecule's now done this once before, and has had two years to study what its players like and what they don't.

So for everything from the crucial question of content discovery to the not-so-little matter of how Sackboy should move - short answer, the floaty jump should no longer be a problem, as you can tweak all aspects of his movements, from his stickiness to his inertia, in the Popit menu - you should expect a sequel that comes with plenty of new ideas, but has also had a lot of thought put into how it presents them to you. For the casuals, there will be dozens of things that they can get working in a few minutes; for the rest of us, there should be more than enough stuff to tinker with for hours on end.

The exciting stuff really happens when you're away from a PS3 though. We were shown a video of a web browser plug-in that will allow you to watch videos on YouTube and then add those levels to a playlist so that they're queued up to play at home. A unified website at http://lbp.me will act like URL shortening service bit.ly, giving every new level a link that can be shared on networks such as Twitter and Facebook, with every click adding to its popularity rating. You'll also be given your own space on lbp.me according to your PSN ID, such as http://lbp.me/gamespot. The site isn't live yet, but will act as your dashboard, allowing you to view photos and add levels to your favourites list, while you'll be able to go to other people's profiles to add their levels to your queue.
