History YMMV / LittleBIGPlanet

** Sacknana [[labelnote:Explanation]][[https://i.imgur.com/WnJWU6J.png A costume from the PSP game's Fruit Salad Pack.]] Likely because of it's ridiculous appearance, this became popular for shitposts similarly to [[VideoGame/SuperMarioRPG Fat Yoshi]]. [[/labelnote]]

* OvershadowedByControversy: The series has landed itself in quite a rough spot over the years, to the point that discussions over it's downfall tend to override the game itself. Not helped by its recent main entry ''[=LittleBigPlanet 3=]'' being a heavily ContestedSequel, and the frequent hacking purges of its various online servers, which also tend to override casual discussion over this game as well.
* RetroactiveRecognition: The first two games were scored by Music/DanielPemberton, who later one would become famous for scoring WesternAnimation/SpidermanIntoTheSpiderVerse and Film/TheManFromUNCLE2015.

** Going through levels in one life can be a fun challenge ... however, certain tools and materials are locked behind this. It's possible that thing you want for making your level is locked behind a [[NoDamageRun No Death Run]], which can be less than desirable if you're around more for the creation and sharing than the playing.

* SongAssociation: "Get It Together" by The Go! Team, as the second licensed song in the first game and the first to be used in a level outside of the Introduction (Skate to Victory), is often heralded as a secondary theme song for the ''[=LittleBigPlanet=]'' series. Even the description for The Go! Team's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ht0yLJt7K4I official upload]] of the song reads "[[LampshadeHanging Yes you probably came from Little Big Planet]]".

* TheyCopiedItSoItSucks: People who are too lazy to create levels will just go to the Cool Levels page and look for any copyable levels. This is why the community has been flooded with multiple copies of the same level by different people, and sometimes even the SAME people will take a level and publish it 20 times. Case in point, here's what you get if you search "[[http://lbp.me/search/v?q=The+Best+Mortal+Kombat+Level+Ever&p=1&l=12 The Best Mortal Kombat Level Ever]]" on [=lbp.me=]. The arrows at the bottom of the screen will be there for a while.

* OlderThanTheyThink: This is not the first time a ''[=LittleBigPlanet=]'' game didn't have Creator/StephenFry as its narrator -- the ''[=LittleBigPlanet=] 2'' Move Pack DLC had Morwenna Banks narrate over the story in his stead, though the key difference being Fry still introduced the expansion before passing off narration duty to Banks.

* TaintedByThePreview: Let's just say that revealing a ''[=LittleBigPlanet=]'' game with no create mode and very minimal outfit customization did not go over well with longtime fans.

** Sackboy judging you. [[labelnote:Explanation]] [[https://www.reddit.com/r/MemeTemplatesOfficial/comments/184ehyy/shocked_puppet_guy_turning_around/?rdt=46390 This particular clip]], featuring Sackboy slowly turning towards the viewer while making the "scared" facial expression at max intensity. Usually used as a way to express shock/disgust at someone saying/doing something appalling. [[/labelnote]]

** "You can also get jiggy, and shake your sack booty" [[labelnote:Explanation]] One of the narrator's lines from the Acting Tutorial of the second game. The scene is usually edited to replace "sack booty" with a different voice from some other random media saying something else, such as Creator/SethRogen [[https://youtu.be/dTG1QOHbUyk?si=nEBe8AdP9AIzcz01 shouting "PUSSY"]].[[/labelnote]]

* MisaimedMarketing: For a happy, E-rated game, some of the downloadable costume packs are rather un-kid-friendly. Examples include ''ComicBook/TwoThousandAD'', ''ComicBook/{{Watchmen}}'', ''VideoGame/MetalGear'', and ''[[VideoGame/{{Resistance}} Resistance: Fall of Man]]''. Though there is an explanation for this, as the marketing on this this one is actually pretty specifically aimed. Kids aren't likely to buy DLC, and slightly older kids who might buy some of it probably wouldn't spend their money on something extra if they don't recognize it. The ''game's'' PeripheryDemographic is the ''DLC's'' intended demographic.

* MoodDissonance: While most DLC for [=LittleBigPlanet=] such as the Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean and [[Creator/MarvelComics Marvel]] packs mostly fit in their tone, the [[Franchise/MetalGear Metal Gear Solid]] DLC can easily be considered this, for both franchises involved! Even with Metal Gear Solid 4's plot and violence made much more simplistic and kid-friendly, it still has the same visual aesthetic and music as a typical MGS game that contrasts wildly with the colourful and cutesy look of the base LBP game. It could even be considered a BigLippedAlligatorMoment considering that the DLC has little lasting impact on the series outside of materials, stickers and the Paintinator.

** The Negativitron himself is no slouch either; It's a giant vacuum cleaner with red, reptilian eyes and pink, jelly-like horns.

** El Jeff's quotes have also gained a similar prominence within the community, most notably from glitch discoverer and satirist dominatordompix, who has used the storyline voice clips in many of his levels (an example is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2WvZX1hTs4 this level]], a mockery of WebOriginal/JeffTheKiller creepypasta survival levels).

** The Bunker is ''obscenely'' difficult, especially the infamous "[[FanNickname Wheel of Death]]" section near the end, where you run around the inside of a giant wheel.

** ''[=LittleBigPlanet=]'' has a huge range of them! One of the most spectacular is the '3D' bug, which lets players build with unlimited layers (although it's really tricky to use, but the makes the level amazingly beautiful if used correctly!), and wasn't fixed.[[note]]The original method to create the objects ''was'' fixed in ''[=LittleBigPlanet=] 2'', so another method had to be used in that game and the [=PS Vita=] games to recreate it. Existing glitched objects still worked similarly to the original game.[[/note]]

** [=LittleBigPlanet=] has a huge range of them! One of the most spectacular is the '3D' bug, which lets players build with 50 more layers (although it's really tricky to use, but the makes the level amazingly beautiful if used correctly!) and is still not fixed. Another, which HAS been fixed is the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azAR4MmldP8 Constipated Sackboy]] where the player chooses the 'reset button' holding it down and then pressing START the START Menu would block the screen so only your friends could see the paused player.

* MagnificentBastard: [[VillainousHarlequin Vex]] initially comes off as a generic supervillain until his [[NotSoHarmlessVillain true colors]] are revealed. Planning to use a machine to throw Craftworld into [[ChaosIsEvil chaos]], Vex kidnaps the residents of Loom and has them work on his machine, while purposely letting Sackboy escape. After seemingly dropping his plans in the process and later fighting in an underwhelming manner when encountered, Vex eventually reveals to Sackboy that he dropped them on purpose so that he can get the {{MacGuffin}}s which power his machine for himself, stealing them all from him and engaging him in a much more intense battle. Even after seemingly been defeated, it's revealed that Vex escaped and activated the Topsy-Turver already, planning to replace the Tree of Imagination with it to become a god. [[NearVillainVictory Nearly winning in the end]], Vex proves to be the craftiest foe Sackboy's faced yet.

* WereStillRelevantDammit: There are a handful of references to internet meme culture, like level names ("[[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/squad Squid Goals]]" and "[[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/the-struggle-is-real The Struggle is Rail]]" come to mind) and an unlockable [[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/the-dab dab]] as an EmoteAnimation.

* EightPointEight: Several reviews that give a score such as 7.5/10, 8.8/10, or 4 out of 5 stars are ''immediately'' filled to the brim with Boos. For example, a user gave a Team-Picked level a 7.5 due to difficulty, and later on it had '''''10''' boos and only 2 yays.''

* UncannyValley: Victoria von Bathysphere has a rather realistic organic-looking head and face, especially in comparison to the rest of the characters. Combine this with her super-deformed proportions and robotic body, and players might find her appearance little unsettling at first.

* UncannyValley: Post-Newton's Airship, many of the characters and creatures fit squarely into this category, including Nana Pud, Irene, and Zom Zom.

* NightmareFuel: The ending of the Introduction level, where the Negativitron begins sucking up the entire level, can invoke this; mainly due to the sheer [[MoodWhiplash Mood Whiplash]] from a happy-go-lucky first level to a major catastrophic event. The tense, panicky music and the fact that you can see random objects from the level that you just played being sucked up really sell just how much of a threat The Negativitron really is, even before he is even properly introduced.

* ThatOneLevel: While there's nothing on the level of The Bunker, there are a few that are infuriating to ace, especially two-part levels. Of note is [[Film/FullMetalJacket Full Metal Rabbit]] in The Cosmos. The first part of the level pits the player against several guard towers with bad guys tossing impact explosives at the player. To proceed, these impact explosives must be tossed back at the towers to destroy them. Later on, there are several platforms over fiery pits; each platform has a bad guy shooting flamethrowers at regular intervals. Mess up the timing on one of them and you're dead, spoiling your Ace run. The second part has the player riding the Robobun, which has unforgiving JumpPhysics, extremely floaty movement, and no attack capabilities except for a power stomp. This entire section is filled with enemies that can OneHitKO you with blasts. Good luck in trying to learn the timing of the final three turrets before the goal...

* MagnificentBastard:
** [[ItCanThink The Negativitron]] is the ruthless yet cunning EldritchAbomination intent on turning Craftworld into their playground. Having already incapacitated the Alliance and their assets ahead of time, The Negativitron frequently interferes with [[PlayerCharacter The Sackperson]]'s attempts to stop it, usually in the form of surprise ambushes. Performing a particularly destructive one in Alvolonia, resulting in the destruction of the Huge Spaceship, it's then revealed that it had the only one who could fix it, Professor Higginbotham, infected with a virus that incapacitated him ahead of time, proceeding to attempt to burn down the asylum he's in before the Alliance could get there. Managing to destroy the Huge Spaceship again upon it arriving at its base after it captures Alvolon, it corners the Alliance and reveals to them its origin, being made out of each member's vices, before using their HeroicBSOD to incapacitate them and duel Sackperson one-on-one, putting up a long and challenging fight even after the Alliance recovers.
** Creator/DCComics Premium Level Pack [[DownloadableContent DLC]]: ComicBook/LexLuthor is once again the brilliant ArchEnemy of the ComicBook/JusticeLeague, as well as the leader of [[LegionOfDoom the Dark Alliance]]. Plotting to use the heroes to power his mecha suit to TakeOverTheWorld, he invades the Watchtower and abducts each member before they could react, placing them all over the world with his Dark Alliance members watching over them, each one also being guarded by harrowing platforming challenges. Operating many of the traps himself during the final stage, he manages to get his mech to full power before challenging Sackperson to a duel, putting up a good fight before being beaten.
