GamesTM: LittleBigPlanet 2 Review

GamesTM: When we reviewed LittleBigPlanet back in 2008, we did so with more than a little faith. True, that review disc came with a substantial amount of potential, but its success was out of Sony’s hands. Sure, LittleBigPlanet was a charming and stylish game, with a tool kit and some ideas of how it all might be used, but no one really knew if it would work. More than any other console game in history, LittleBigPlanet’s success or failure rested with a community of gamers that no one was sure even existed.

But now, more than two years, three million sales, a couple of BAFTAs and over five million user-created levels later, that faith has been fully vindicated. Without being too hyperbolic about matters, it’s safe to say that, with time, LittleBigPlanet has become one of the defining games of this generation.
