LittleBigPlanet coming in October News

PlayStation 3 News by Ellie Gibson

6 May, 2008

Speaking at the SCEE PlayStation Day in London, Kaz Hirai has revealed LittleBigPlanet will be released in October.

Media Molecule's effort will "revolutionise" the way people interact with games, according to Hirai. As you probably know already, LBP is PS3 exclusive that will let you create your own game levels and share them online.

Hirai also confirmed that PlayStation Home will be "open to the public towards the end of the year". He apologised for the delayed release, but said he won't open up Home until he's "completely happy with it".

"Our confidence in Home has not wavered," Hirai told the audience. However, "As great as it currently is, it needs a little more time."

For all the PlayStation Day news as it happens, or as it happened if you're reading this some time after half-past five, read Eurogamer's live coverage.

But will they stick to the release dates?



Only smarties know the answer.

Why do so many people view this as some sort of PS3 great white hope? Don't they realize the designers behind it also made Rag Doll Kung Fu? ;)

The delay of Home is simply Sony playing into Microsoft's hands. They can knock out code much quicker than anyone and I'm sure they'll announce a beta of their own version of Home around the same time, as a spoiler to Sony's efforts.

Let's face it, Sony are not programming giants, Microsoft is and they're very good at releasing something that's 80% complete and by the time people have found out and noticed bugs and complained, they (Microsoft) have the other 20% completed and ready for release as a Service Pack.

I'd bet money that's how they'll release their Home 'killer'...
