LBP has nearly 2m online users

Around 650,000 user-generated levels.

LittleBigPlanet has nearly two million online users, Sony America said on Friday, and between them they have uploaded nearly 650,000 levels.

In a press release (thanks vg247) celebrating LittleBigPlanet's recent AIAS and BAFTA wins, SCEA said that there were more than 646,135 levels, 1,934,700 total users, and an average of 35,373 levels uploaded each week. The data is from 11th March.

Sony is presumably hoping that renewed awards chatter and signs of a thriving community will entice a few more people to give the game a go - especially as it has now slipped out of the UK All-Formats Top 40, and with some online retailers marking it down to around 15 quid in the UK.

Sony also recently confirmed that LittleBigPlanet is coming to PSP.
