Well,the handheld release we’ve all been waiting for is nearly upon us. And also,LittleBigPlanet PSP is coming out! The joy of playing with Sackboy and creating levels on those long train rides is finally within our grasp. Of course,no LBP release is complete without a little controversy. The lack of multiplayer [...] 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. (But then,sometimes prices are a bit inflated.) Either SCEE feels that it’s worth discounting to attract people to PS3,or they expect to make back [...] …even if clicking on “Learn more”takes you to a top 30 list (in no particular order). Darn the number 2 game on the list,though,for taking almost as much of my PS3′s uptime. [...] Yes,I know that LittleBigPlanet went “gold”long ago;but now it has earned a Gold Sales Award from ELSPA,apparently for selling in excess of 200k copies in the UK. As I recall,it sold more than that in the USA in October alone;considering the population difference,however,and ELPA Gold award [...] [Update:This Japanese blog entry seems to disagree about the Japanese sales vs GTA4,at least for the first day of sales. I'll admit a low level of reading comprehension;is this simply an online vs in-store sales difference?] Gamasutra watches the Amazon sales charts as closely as I do,and has good tidings this [...] By now,many fans in North America seem to be able to pick up LittleBigPlanet at their favourite local retailer. There is naturally much rejoicing. But is it a fancy new copy of LittleBigPlanet fresh off of Sony’s presses,or did your store just start putting the recalled copies up on the shelf? Our [...] More things to see and read while we wait: Going to be in London next week? I’m not,but MyLittleBigBlog is giving away two tickets to see Irish supergroup The Script at the LittleBigPlanet space in Covent Garden on Monday. So go send in an email,and get out of the house and enjoy some [...] Looking for LittleBigPlanet before the new version ships to your area? Some retailers aren’t paying much attention to the recall. No luck around my hometown,though,so far. It makes me wonder what the repercussions (if any) are for the retailer. Since it was recalled before the street date,could the retailer be in breach [...] First,without commenting directly on the recent unpleasantness,I’d like to give some words of encouragement to our friends at Sony and Media Molecule. I’ve been part of enough suddenly-delayed releases to know what a horrendous pain it can be. If any of you have time to read this between frantic phone calls and urgent [...] As the release date gets closer and closer,we caught up with a few more local sackpeople to ask about their pre-order experiences. Princess Sackgirl is a sucker for the Nariko costume,so she went into Best Buy and put $5 down on the game. Dragon Mask Sackboy had to visit a few [...] | ||||
