New game from Sony, Little Big Planet

The game revolves around the player's control of small avatars, known as Sackboys owing to their appearance, in a variety of platforming scenarios. Though the game features a set of pre-built levels for players to explore, of equal importance is the game's customisable nature, from altering the player's character and personal space, to building entirely new objects and levels, and then sharing and playing them online as part of the LittleBigPlanet community.

Originally intended for a release in mid-to-late October, a last-minute delay involving a song in the game's soundtrack delayed the game's release worldwide.[10] It was released in North America and Japan at the end of October, and in Europe at the beginning of November. Seen as an important title for Sony and the PlayStation 3,[11] the game received a very positive reaction from critics, who praised the game's presentation including its graphics, physics and audio, as well as its gameplay and large array of customisable and online features, including its scope and future potential based on user-created content; minor criticism was reserved for some specific elements of the gameplay mechanics and level creation facilities. The title's overall positive reception sees it as one of the top-rated games for the PlayStation 3 console on video games aggregate websites.
