Here I'm going to spotlight some of the best creations, produced so far in the Little Big Planet 2 beta. All credit for these videos, creations and content goes to the appropriate entities.
Capture the Flag by Nuclearfish
The objective here is to hold onto the flag for as long as possible, whilst your opponents try and shoot you with various powerups, to reclaim it. You earn points as you hold onto the flag, the person with the highest score when the timer runs out, is the winner.
What makes this level special is a great presentation, and good use of the new competitive multiplayer and creatinator tool.
Audial Visuals by Fyshokid
Audio Visuals features no gameplay, it's essentially a music video. What makes this level special is the great use of the camera and music creation tools.
Sackro Machines 2! by Splapp-Me-Do
Sackro Machines 2 is a brilliant micro machines clone. What makes this level special is the great use of direct control seats, and camera tools to recreate a classic title from video gamings past.
Here's Jonny by Ladylyn1
Another level with no gameplay, this is a cinematic level, telling a short story. What makes this level special is the fantastic use of camera tools.
The Ancient Cave of New Beh'Ta by lous_85
The Ancient Cave of New Beh'Ta is a traditional LBP platformer, what makes this level special is it's excellent presentation and great use of the grappling hook, and Sackbots to showcase how the new mechanics can be expertly integrated into a standard platformer.
Community level - Flower
As you could probably guess this is a recreation of the game 'Flower'. What makes this level special is how well the author translated the 3D mechanics of the original game, to a 2D top down enviroment, with direct control seats and camera tools.
Community level - Armour Boy: Battle Arena
This is a mech based game, where you have to fend off waves of enemies in an arena. What makes this level special is a fantastic use of a direct control seat intergrated into a multiplayer game.

Community level - Flow
As you can probably guess, this is a Little Big Planet recreation of the game flow. In fact it's so accurate it makes me wonder if it crosses the line for copyright infringement.
Vietnam: FPS (First Person Shooter) by PPp_Killer
This levels essentially your basic, on rails shooter. What makes this level special is how the camera tools have be manipulated to produce a first person-eque perspective.
Community level - RPG Concept
Pretty simple concept level, what makes this special that it showcases a functiona menu system, which could be used to swap items and whatnot in a typical RPG.
Minesweeper by BludgaBoy
As you can imagine this plays exactly like minesweeper. What's special about this level is perfectly accurate reproduction of the game, and how the author manages to produce 'random' variables to generate each table, for each new game.
Community level - AirHocky
Pretty simple concept but a great demonstration of how multiplayer levels don't need fancy mechanics to be enjoyable. There's not too much that's special about this level, although it does show good use of direct control seats and a top down camera.
Here's another level of a similar nature
Witches Brew - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTNH5u5bTAY
Community level - Street Fighter: Guiles theme
I wasn't too impressed by this level, but hell since it seems to be the most popular. I figured I'd include it so anyone that manages to miss out, can get to see it.
Community level - Torchman
This is a sweet level showcasing how simplistic use of direct control seats and Sackbots can amp up Little Big Planets platforming formula.
