There Are Now 4 Million Levels On LittleBigPlanet

Kotaku AU

This is a pretty incredible statistic. At time of writing there is now 4,141,742 levels on LittleBigPlanet. According to Alex Pavey at Sony, if you were to play for 12 hours a day, and play each level for five minutes, it would take you over 78 years to play them all.

LittleBigPlanet 2 Does A Good Job Of Babysitting With This Game Boy Remake

Drive up the volume for this user-created level from LittleBigPlanet 2, an homage to World 1-1 from Super Mario Land on the Game Boy. Creator Junkvxxl loaded the level three days ago; it became a developer favourite two days ago; it’s been played more than 36,000 times in that span. If you have the game, perhaps you should try it for yourself.

When LittleBigDreams Come True…

Kotaku AU

This is awesome – this is a short documentary focusing on how Media Molecule plucked two people from the LittleBigPlanet community to work for Media Molecule. A while back in a previous life, in a previous job, I actually interviewed one of these guys for a feature on the very same subject, and his story is truly incredible. Well worth watching.

Kotaku AU

As if you needed proof that LittleBigPlanet 2′s Create tools were incredibly and almost intimidatingly flexible, here comes an almost perfect recreation of Popcap’s Peggle. We’ve already seen Wolfenstein 3D and Flower recreations, but this is every bit as awesome an achievement.

LittleBigPlanet: Good On PS3, Better In Real Life

Give this 10 seconds to let you know what’s going on. Give it 30 to warm your heart. Then give it around 60 to blow your mind.

Real Life LittleBigPlanet

Kotaku AU

The beauty of LittleBigPlanet is that it feels like someone just emptied a giant toybox on the floor, then built some of the best 2D platforming levels ever with the garbage scattered across the floor – it has a gorgeous patchwork style that we just adore. Well, in this real life reworking of LittleBigPlanet, someone literally has scattered a bunch of crap on the floor and made a LittleBigPlanet level! And it looks incredible.

Community Review: LittleBigPlanet 2

Kotaku AU

I can’t be the only person who loved simply playing through the single player levels in the original LittleBigPlanet with my friends, can I? I cracked the seal on my copy of LittleBigPlanet on Friday night and, more than the community levels, more than the new create tools, I simply couldn’t wait to see what Media Molecule had conjured up in the single player section.
