Sony Reveals LittleBigPlanet Community Game for PS3
Posted on March 8, 2007 by Victor Dangelo
 

Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios revealed just what they have in mind for their new PlayStation Home service with LittleBigPlanet, a community creating gaming world for the PlayStation 3.

The game is being developed by Media Molecule and will be a community based game with highly innovative concepts.

Players will be meeting on a blue and green planet with individual plots where they will be able to play, create, and share things throughout the PlayStation Network.

Players will have to physically interact with the world around them and collect pieces to puzzles, solve problems, etc.  All of these tasks will require a great deal of teamwork and creative skills.

Official details from the official press release are below:

“We were confident that PS3 would be the platform to lead the way in creative gaming, and LittleBigPlanet brings this concept to life spectacularly,” said Phil Harrison, President of Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios. “By giving players the power to shape and share an entire virtual world via PLAYSTATION Network, we’ve created the space for PS3 owners to realize their creativity and craft their own unique gameplay experience.”

So, how does it work?   

Play the game, learn the skills and then find your own way to play. There isn’t a set solution to anything – you live LittleBigPlanet however you want to.   Create your own content – customize your character and build your own locations. You have the power to rearrange anything in this unbelievably tactile landscape.   Build, move, create, collaborate – then share content with friends or publicly by inviting the whole world to come and visit your own location on LittleBigPlanet.


Key features:

• There’s not just one way to play. Players craft their own individual experience
• Unlimited possibilities for user-created content – players can customize everything: their characters, the landscape around them and their own patch on LittleBigPlanet
• Players discover and win new skills and items to aid them on their creative journey
• Initial levels will be provided – endless others will be user-generated on a global scale. LittleBigPlanet will change every day as players contribute their own levels
• Online and offline multiplayer modes – play alone, work as a team or get competitive
• LittleBigPlanet global community for players to get involved with: includes player comments, rankings and easy communication with new and existing friends 

A demo will be available on the PlayStation 3 this fall in downloadable form.
