So how was your gaming weekend? LittleBigPlanet and Gears of War 2 were the big releases for PS3 and 360 respectively. And the gaming rush continues this week with Call of Duty: World at War and WoW Lich King leading the charge. Sheesh. How much time/money do publishers think we have?

Anyway, anyone here get either LBP or Gears 2? Server problems aside I'm still infatuated by LittleBigPlanet and for me this is the first absolute must-play exclusive title for the PS3.

Gears 2, an exclusive release for the Xbox 360, is enjoyable enough, especially in co-op, but it's hardly essential. Anyone who played the original Gears will feel right at home. Honestly, buffed up space marines, alien attacks, destruction, chainsaws – hardly gaming's future is it? Sure, the core gamers will love it but give me LittleBigPlanet's charm and originality every time. Anyone here played either or – gasp – both? What do you think?
