I'd like to participate as well.

I saw this when you guys did UNO but I didn't actually have the game but I do have (and Love) LBP. So I finally get to participate in one of these things for the first time.

PSN: elnino14

I think that''s the right PSN, I'll have to check when I get home on Sunday.

So do I need to do anything else outside of log on on Wednesday a little before 5:30 (Pac time)?

Just add me (mhatter106) on PSN, and I'll invite you to the text chat room a little before we start. From there we'll divide into groups of 4.  Check the first post for all details.  See you there!

Also, still looking for a volunteer to be the organizer for the Warhawk night next month.  A lot of you said you wanted it.  Who's gonna step up to take point on it?  Bueller?

I'll anchor it for now, but if someone else would like to step up and host, it's all them.

I'll request me a copy in the next week and will try and to refamiliarize myself with setting up games.

Im in for LBP

A word of warning: if you haven't played LBP in a while, take some time to download the updates. Just did this earlier today and I required 600MB+ of updates that took around a half hour.  Also needed to go back to re-download the GoW preorder bonus pack from the PSN store for some reason.

If anyone wishes to help contribute to the trophy hoarders, there's a few quick things everyone playing Wednesday can do:

1. Heart the other players participating (Celebrity trophy requires you to be hearted by 5 or more people)
2. Play the created levels of those participating.  (Feel the Love trophy requires 10 or more people to play a user published level.  Several other trophies have you heart authors and rate/tag their levels).  I already checked out Hatter's Goozex photo-op stage.   Akronon's Little Big Lebowski stage was pretty challenging, but awesome.
3. Add the other players participating to your friends list. (Party Person trophy requires you play a 4 player online game with 3 other people from your friends list).

Having alot of fun revisiting this game and sort of regret trading it out several months ago.  Wednesday should be good times.

Oh wow, I'd love to do this but Wednesday is a no-go for me. I'm PST at 5:30 and I work from 6-9 that night, which is a totally lame shift but I can't skip it and risk ticking off the boss lady. I'll try to participate in the upcoming game nights though because it's a fantastic idea. :D

I'll still add friends and check out and heart your levels though since I just picked up LBP and I'm still checking everything out.

Ohhhhh. Good thinking. I hadn't even thought of that. Will do that tonight in advance, at least play the levels and heart everyone.

Count me in for LBP and Warhawk. I haven't played either one in quite a while. I'm looking forward to it!

Thanks for  the props, Mecha!  Did you get past Jesus?  I checked the stats this weekend, and around 240 people have played the level, but I think only 14 finished it.  I guess I made it a little too difficult for most LBP players.

If anyone else here plays the level, just know that there are safe zones at the edge of the ramps where you can't get hit by the bowling balls.  You'll know what part I'm talking about when you get there.  It's pretty hard to avoid the bowling balls, but you can do it if you take your time.

Props are well deserved.  It's pretty evident from playing it that you put a considerable amount of time and effort into designing the stage.

Sadly, I did not survive my encounter.  The inclined ramps with the bowling balls killed me dead - up til then I had been doing well.  I didn't notice the safe zones, but just tried to time my jumps and got myself killed in the process.  Regardless, I completely dug the Big Lebowski quotes and references and that alone makes it praiseworthy.
