Starting off the substantial DLC with a bang

Ok,I’m guilty:I’ve downloaded every costume pack released for LittleBIGPlanet so far,even the premium ones. I just can’t help myself. But at the back of my mind I had a nagging concern:“By paying this much for cosmetic DLC (even if it is frequently awesome cosmetic DLC),am I encouraging Sony to [...]

A Gentle Reminder

…that the “Little BIG Music”album was released today (at least on iTunes). Buy it!

LBPDPMUZIK

For as long as we’ve been talking about LittleBigPlanet,music has been a big part of the equation. First the brilliant use of The Go! Team in the original demo;then a whole generation of gamers being introduced to Battles,Jim Noir,Ananda Shankar,and others;and finally the unfortunate Tourmani Diabaté controversy. I [...]

Ruck Sack FTW

Those of us in North America are excluded,but I’d encourage all happy gadders in the UK and Ireland to enter this contest. I can strongly recommend a trip around the world to everyone.

The scissors are the barbers

Not sure why I didn’t find this when I first looked,but if you’re curious about the real lyrics to “Atlas”they’re here on Battles’MySpace Blog [warning:strong language in comments].

Blogging about not blogging

I normally dislike posts like this,but to address the concerned emails:Yes,we’re still alive;and no,we’re not silently boycotting anything. Busy times at work and other ongoing projects (which a few of you know about) have made it difficult to attend to the blog regularly. And I will sheepishly admit to occasionally [...]

Stuffed fun

Anyone who’s been reading this blog has seen a lot of the little stuffed Sackpeople we have hanging around LiBiPl.net HQ. They’ve held up quite well,despite a lot of travel and (mis)adventures. So I was happy to see that the lady who made them is still crafting little (and big) Sackboys and putting them [...]

European Unity

Franco-American fans like myself have noticed some similarity between a set of LBP ads being shown in France and those in the UK:

Cullen Family –French,English.

Rock’n’Roll –French,English.

LittleBigPlanet rules in either language,but I would’ve loved to see a French translation of “Play with everythiiiiing!”.

Has anyone seen any other [...]

An Amazing Night in America

I don’t usually do this,but I have to expound on my experience last night. Hours glued to the screen,the ups and downs,the drama,the pageantry,the thrill of victory,and the agony of defeat…

Just Say No to Proposition Pluto

Here at LiBiPl.net we’re simple folks. We don’t have a popular Facebook group or a snazzy campaign site. We’re ordinary hard-working Earthlings,just like you,who know that our solar system has eight planets. But some extremists are trying to trick you into giving Pluto a seat at the planetary table,and I just can’t [...]
