LittleBigPlanet: Game of the Year Edition
© 2009 Sony Computer Entertainment America
The testers' verdict on this edition of LittleBigPlanet? "It's just like the original." In other words, if you already own the game, think twice before investing $60 in this similarly designed experience. Content includes 18 bonus levels created by LittleBigPlanet fans, selected by Media Molecule, plus seven downloadable content packs to expand SackBoy’s wardrobe and a larger variety of “Create” materials. For those who have yet to see this incredible open-ended experience, LittleBigPlanet begins with players customizing the game's main character, SackBoy. Then you learn how SackBoy interacts physically with the surrounding environment in Story Mode. You must make your way across the LittleBigPlanet to help find missing characters, their creations, and those responsible for their disappearance. You will also solve puzzles and collect items that can be used to create levels. Limited quantities of the game will include a PlayStation Network voucher code to download the upcoming ModNation Racers online beta. ModNation Racers is PlayStation’s newest “Play, Create, and Share” experience, offering a classic kart racing game with a creative twist.
