Sony has posted a LittleBigPlanet 2 FAQ on the PlayStation blog, answering pressing questions about features of the upcoming sequel, from compatibility with LittleBigPlanet downloadable content to adding your own custom voice acting.
I’ve left the iPad tag off this story for a reason, because whether you hate Apple or love Apple. Whether you await Saturday’s ascension of the iPad as a second holy day that weekend, or plan to ignore the day’s event entirely. Actor, writer, comedian, the man who gave voice to LittleBigPlanet Stephen Fry’s take on the iPad is an absolute must read.
British actor, comedian, and Dr. House’s better half Stephen Fry has confirmed that he is indeed providing voiceovers for the PlayStation Portable version of LittleBigPlanet.
Warning: this comes from Twitter. If you’re sick of hearing about Twitter, well, you have been warned. Anyway. Stephen Fry is spending the day doing voice work for a game.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that Stephen Fry is Best at everything. Actor, writer, director, comedian, poet, documentary maker, blogger, etc. etc. and bloody etc. again. In the UK we consider him a national treasure on a par with Excalibur, the Koh-i-noor Diamond and Queen Victoria’s secret pr0n stash.
He has even lent his considerable vocal talent to Fable 2 — talk about renaissance man. Beat that, Leonardo, you big fraud.
Having recently begun an 87th career as a gadget blogger (via his Guardian newspaper column Dork Talk) the boy Fry has revealed his affection for the Nintendo DS and — true to form — offers a spot-on dissection of what is great about the handheld.
At the moment his interests seem to lie in the casual end of the gaming spectrum. Other games writers beware, though — if someone gives him a stack of Square RPGs we will all be out of a job by Christmas.
