There was a really good set of GamesCom coverage links posted by Mr_Berger on LittleBigWorkshop while I was working on this post,some of which I hadn’t found yet,so I wanted to give credit where due. Also beware of my fragmentary and/or run-on sentences below,but I tried to give a quick overview of [...]

Along with Sackboy Junior’s recent misadventures,there’s a lot going on in the LittleBigPlanetverse: Here in the States,the Subway sandwich company is running a promotional contest with a variety of Sony prizes,including both regular and collector’s edition LittleBigPlanet 2. PlayStation.blog details –Subway Fiery Footlong Frenzy site –Subway Freshbuzz twitter page. [I've [...] PAX A games blog over at the Portland Mercury seemed impressed by LittleBigPlanet,and were nice enough to point out something that I think is being largely overlooked: Unlike most world-building games,this platforming section is robust enough to functionally be its own game,much to the delight of those who don’t have [...] Lots to report,before anything starts coming in from PAX: First of all,the LittleBigPlanet News Site is showing off the official boxart for the USA [thanks Brian!]. I can’t decide whether I like the UK packaging better or not. I like the USA crowd better than just showing two Sackboys,but the use [...] First of all,if you haven’t yet,go take a look at Media Molecule’s Leipzig photos. Simply amazing. And to those who ask “What about lighting? Can we make dark levels?”,you might spy an answer in this image.

We have this [...] First there was a blurb on CVG that user-generated levels in LittleBigPlanet would be segregated by region. And the internet exploded in rage. Then PS3Fanboy expressed their concern,as they had heard something different. And the internet continued to explode in rage and confusion and speculation. Now our good friend Sam Protagonist (Hi Sam!) has [...] The official PlayStation Blog has a missive from Pete Smith,detailing some of the Leipzig LittleBigPlanet experience. I think it’s pretty popular: There are over one hundred seats available to play the game from and every one is occupied –plus there’s a queue. But the most important question is “Will we be seeing more [...] The “Best of GC”awards have been announced already,and it’s LittleBigPlanet that grabs “Best PS3 Game”. From the press release: Sony brings new life to an old genre,the laterally scrolling platformer. It also adds both a social and a creative element to the console world:the gamer community becomes the developer community. “Little [...] Despite this reveal during Sony’s Leipzig GC Press Conference: it seems there’s still some confusion in the press. I’ve seen October 19th as the PAL release date in a few places,and GameSpot even tells Australians that “LittleBigPlanet will be getting its local release on October 28,a week and a half after the [...] | ||||
