After yesterdays Best Buy coupon mishap I was able to get a 2TB hard drive, my first year of psn and $50 psn credit for $80 out of pocket (after rz points). I am ready for this sale!

I was thinking there was something odd about the LBP: Karting multiplayer at release, but couldn't remember what it was when I was looking it up recently. No local multiplayer?, no online multiplayer? or am I thinking of a different carting game?

^For some reason there was a rumor going on around here (and maybe elsewhere) that this game doesn't have local multiplayer. It definitely does, there are plenty of YouTube videos proving this. A quick Google search suggests that there *might* be an issue with 3rd party controllers, though that sounds like an extremely weird issue. It also may be possible that the different game modes support different amounts of players.

Yeah, it was totally confusing at one point. It does support 4 player local multiplayer right, 100% positive? TIA.

I have to agree with you on this game, except it's still worth $5-$10. I mean, what can you buy for $5 these days? A hamburger, 30 mins of parking in San Francisco, an avatar dlc on a console? I'll be repurchasing it at $5. I have the Wii version and bought the PS3 version at launch but sold it shortly after. At $5, I won't even hesitate to rebuy it.

Was there a scheduled maintenance today? Every time I try to get onto the store I keep getting a message that its currently under maintenance. Weird

They're more than likely updating the store with all the deals/changes.

Thanks for the clarification, another one to add to the list.

Just played the demo. I wasn't overwhelmingly impressed. Is there much of a story mode? And the level with the dragon-monster truck thing was a little too busy. Couldn't quite tell what was going on.

I myself was confused when I got LBP: Karting in the mail after Black Friday, because it clearly states on the box that it supports multiple players online, and only 1 player locally. The box is a lie!

On the other hand, I am having all kinds of problems staying logged in and downloading content online. I would say it's my router settings or something, except EVERY OTHER game works fine online. :(

Unfortunately I can't say that I'm personally 100% positive. Google searches of message boards suggest that it does, but it may be restricted to certain modes. (Like Mario Kart, where you can do the campaign with 2 players, and then versus and battle with 4 players). I don't have the slightest idea which modes allow which amounts of players.

Oh wow the box is wrong? That was stupid of them.

Could have been patched in.

I know Mod Nation Racers does not have multiplayer support on Vita because I personally own it and a lot of people were upset with that. Not sure about Mod Nation on the PS3 though, haven't heard on LBP karts

Wrong topic me thinks.

To me, the Survival Edition is a waaaay better value than the Post-Pandemic Edition. Half the price and instead of a statue and a multiplayer DLC pack, you get a sweet artbook.

My bro was going to get psn+ and get some of those deals but was wondering can these purchases from psn+ be shared?
