Who's a cute sack boy? You're a cute sack boy! Yes you are! Yes you are!
By the way, I had my Rock Band mic plugged in while playing LBP, and the TV was on pretty loud in the other room. It was HILARIOUS to see sack boy mouthing the words to the TV show going on in the background! I think I might have sack boy lip-syncing webcasts from now on. I highly recommend it.

Why does it matter if they are included with the final game or not? They'd be available to play from the online portion of the game from day one.

Great, but does any of the shit I picked up in the beta (objects, stickers, etc.) transfer over? Or do I have to go through all of those tutorials again?

I think you're going to have to do that all over again, the only thing carrying over are shared levels (not game saves).

You have to do it all over. Once the beta is gone so is your game data, progress, etc.

Last night when I was in the beta it was very buggy with lots of slowdown. Did anybody else have trouble?

Yeah it was horrendous last night, I think because a whole bunch of people got beta codes from USA Today (including my own good self).

It took me about 3 hours to d/l the beta and my PSN connection kept going in and out...but it was all worth it. Boy, was it worth it.

I'm hoping they at least filter out some of the bad levels, but this is great news anyway you see it. There are already some masterpieces in LBP I dont wanna lose.

Is there a way to score a level besides hearting it/not hearting it and choosing one of those vague preselected keywords? When searching for levels, can you sort by quality somehow? I don't really get how this works. (Why isn't there just a 5-star rating system?)

I already have my publication space in the beta taken up and will likely be overwriting it all shortly after launch anyway. However there's a lot of really great stuff in there that would likely never be duplicated so its definitely a good thing. Crap is going to end up in there whether its from the beta or not. If they want they can wipe stuff from PSN accounts that don't sign back in in a set amount of time.

Is it just me or did betas stop being what they used to be? I'm all for having a clean bug-free game but recently this whole bullshit(Code Giveaways,People offering their own PSN Accounts,Selling codes on Ebay)has become more of a PR Show than an actual benchmark utility.

Believe me...this was a Beta in every sense of the word. I crashed LBP about 20 times in the first two or three days of playing. On top of that, the online element crashed a few times, and has been fairly buggy for some people from the word go.
I hope all of those bugs are squashed for the final retail version. At the very least, the Beta was a great head start for the people that will creating the excellent levels (I suggest the Wipeout level. It's brilliant) come launch day.

Neither do I really...just annoys me because a proper term for it would be "release candidate" - gimped version of full finished Game such as Halo 3 "Beta"

How much space are you given for uploads?

Uploads? There aren't really uploads per se. You have a "moon" to yourself where you can copy other people's levels, play them and edit them, and it belongs to you. I'm not sure just how many levels you can host there at any given time. I'm guessing around 36 or so.
