LBGenius: LittleBig Contra Explodes Onto PSN

One Last Continue writes: "Since the launch of Sony and Media Molecule's LittleBigPlanet, thousands of user-created levels have been posted on the Playstation Network. Some are completely new, some tributes to games of old…but you've never seen one quite like this.

Just a few short weeks ago, a group of posters on the NeoGAF forums set out on a mission - a rather dangerous mission, you might say. Their objective? To recreate the entirety of Konami's NES shooter smash hit, Contra, using LittleBigPlanet. Since then, the seven members of the LittleBig Contra team have toiled away, studying the maps, tilesets, and sprites of the original Contra for research. And I'm pleased to report this evening that their mission is an absolute success."
