LBP to feature voice chat, PS Eye options

By Robert Purchese Published 2 July, 2008

More stuff to be added after launch.

LittleBigPlanet will be making use of the PS Eye for some top secret "creative features".

Media Molecule boss David Smith told Eurogamer he couldn't elaborate, but said voice chat is in and his team has a lengthy list of features to add after launch.

"I can tell you we have VOIP. It's really useful when you're making a level with a friend who happens to be in a different country. It fits really nicely into the game," Smith said.

"There's some more cool stuff about this that I'm not going to go into right now. We are using the camera for some of the creative features of the game. It's a pretty powerful way of getting new content into the LBP world.

"We have a big wish list of things that we'd like to add after the initial launch of the game. Making videos of theatre plays and stunts is definitely on the list. Whether we add the feature or not is partially up to you guys. How much do you want it? Tell us!" he added.

Those words came from his mouth during our live text interview, where you get to ask him your questions about the quirky game-making game.
