Sam, a community developer over the PlayStation.com forums, states that there will be a "limited public beta" for LittleBigPlanet in September. No other details were given at this time. "If it will be possible to 'sign up' for this test, full information on how to do so will be made public in advance of the test.
Media Molecule's Pete Smith spoke about the possibility of recruiting top LittleBigPlanet community designers to join the Britain-based team.
"We will be aware of who those awesome designers are and certainly there's the potential to get them building levels as part of the dev team,"
Please label rumours as rumours. This is a single BLOG post (is that really an 'article'? Not saying it can't be true but it would be nice if you properly presented the info for those that just read headlines.
while the majority of people at the event just play the previews, I like to take time out and actually talk to the developers and get insight into gaming production. I found out some amazing bomb shells, most of which I have my mouth zipped on, but here are two things that won't get me in trouble I hope.
1. LBP will have official Disney DLC.
It takes me [Jim Unwin, interface designer] about 12 hours to complete all the levels, and I’ve been developing the game for the past however-many months. So expect it to take a bit longer than that.
my first chance to play Sony's world creation game came earlier this morning -- and I think I'm in love.
Without any hyperbole -- blame my lack of sleep -- this is the game that will allow the PlayStation 3 to catch up with the Xbox 360, if only in mindshare.
Oh, and as a side note LBP has the greatest soundtrack of any game I've seen since Rock Band. Jim Noir in a videogame? Thanks Sony!
It's hard to overstate the appeal of LittleBigPlanet's overall presentation. It's graphically impressive and irrepressibly charming. I'd seen plenty of screens and video of the game, but playing it for myself put a huge smile on my face. The hands-on part of the demo was over far too quickly, and unfortunately didn't include any level-building.
On the occasion of the release of LittleBigPlanet on PlayStation 3, a package composed of the console version of 80 Gb and the game will be marketed as soon as November 5 at a price of 399 €, the free game. (translated with google translate)
