SCEE has supplied us with the official statement on the situation regarding LittleBigPlanet…

During the review process prior to the release of LittleBigPlanet, it has been brought to our attention that one of the background music tracks licensed from a record label for use in the game contains two expressions that can be found in the Qur’an. We have taken immediate action to rectify this and we sincerely apologise for any offence that this may have caused.

We will confirm the new launch date shortly.

We’ll keep you updated with further information as soon as we get it.

UPDATE

We’ve just been informed by SCEE that the delay to release is effective worldwide.

2d platformer+being able to design awesome levels= count me in, if you put weight in review scores then yes it's a must buy and lol at you judging the game by the cover that's laughable ever hear of the phrase never judge a book by it's cover? As for reviews it currently has 95 rating after 18 reviews.

One of the most ill advised premeditated statements towards LBP, nothing can be further from the truth.

i agree with jak, ratings doesn't make something kiddy - adults can enjoy rated E games - if you look, around 95% of all sports games are Rated E/G - the ratings just depend on the game content, not the game play or game story

violence, nudity, gore, and similar content is likely to spike up the ratings

I saw the commercial for this game also. It looks pretty dumb to me. I didn't find it exciting.

Was it really that big of a deal that they had to take it out?
That's kind of ridiculous.

I'm hoping to get it Friday by legal means or illegal, when I mean illegal I mean the practice of renting it and never returning it. Considering Family Video is a evil corporation that deserves bankruptcy I won't feel bad, I really should wait 1 month and rent like 5 games considering I won't be able to rent ever again there not that I ever intend to but still may as well max out.

LBP get really laggy now that the online is up. I going to give it a few days until things settle down to play again. It lagged it so much that you can't even get into story mode. Tons of people must have got this game.
