I agree with you; fact is that there will be a lot of things that you cannot use. Now what they could do is make it a Fat Princess-style game for the PS3, but then have you able to make anything you want to (if it hasn't been heard of, you can add it to the game by drawing it and giving it a name from a dictionary within the game). That would be pretty kickass. And yeah, you probably can't use any guns or bombs or anything-it isn't a mature game. :(

I'm going to write "David Jaffe" and that motherfucking centaur will be cursed (at) to death!  Ohh, the possibilities. Wait until later stages to bring out the big guns of KAZ THE DESTROYER.  **giant US$599 crushes all enemies**

Wow I am totally impressed.  I am sure there must be some sort of limitations but I can ignore that for now, I am excited about this game big time.

Violence solves everything. "Sniper Rifle" is the solution to every puzzle in the game.

You don't draw the items. They've simply drawn a shit-ton of things. Millions. It's possible to request things that the game doesn't have though, some of that being thanks to the rating.

For instance: You can't summon cocaine and a vibrator to solve a puzzle, which is upsetting, as I've found that to be the best way to solve just about any puzzle.

I wonder if you could write in stuff like Nuclear Bomb and nuke the levels.  The fact they gave the old man a sniper rifle is also pretty funny.

The cake is a lie!

Even with some super complex prefix/suffix system I can't honestly believe this is going to work how they're marketing it.

Did someone go in and code every single item in existence?
