I guess I’m just an artifact of a bygone age when it wasn’t so commercial,when we knew that keeping Spaff in our hearts was the real reason for the season. But who are we to complain when we are now no [...] The big news,of course,is the upcoming LBP demo and GOTY edition. A lucky homemade Sackboy who got to go to PAX. Gamers Couch reviews LittleBigPlanet. A somewhat tardy yet very positive review,while pointing out two legitimate issues with the user content system (instead of just saying “user-generated content is bad”,like [...] New PS3 commercial: Amusingly,the boyfriend in the background is clearly playing LittleBigPlanet. Which makes it even more unbelievable that he hasn’t hooked it up to the internet yet,right? But maybe he scored a pre-recall version of LBP,and is enjoying the vocal track on “Tapha Niang”.

LittleBigPlanet DLC is shared between PS3 LBP and PSP LBP (costumes and stickers,at [...] [Whoops,LittleBigPodcast episode 16 came out while I was working on this post. LittleBigPodcast team rocks! ] Happily,episode 15 of the LittleBigPodcast has finally arrived! Glad to hear that Austin and Daniel have overcome the various technical difficulties and are producing the podcast again;each installment is more polished than the last,and the [...] All of the cool kids in the UK are picking up LittleBIGPlanet for ten quid or so,while it’s still over $30 everywhere I look in the USA.
