I think it’s safe to say we’re all tired of waiting for Sony to release LittleBigPlanet for the PlayStation 3. It was first revealed at last year’s Game Developers Conference to squeals of delight from the gaming community and press, and we’re just a little over a month away from this year’s GDC. We were “promised” a demo in late 2007, but that fell through. So what gives?
At CES, Sony’s Jeff Rubenstein stopped by and spoke with LittleBigPlanet‘s producer Kyle Shubel, who walked him through some of the game’s “Create” functions. But that’s not the important part, because who the heck cares — when can we start playing the damned game? Shubel drops some not so subtle hints.
“You’ll see more at GDC,” he says. “You’ll see more heading into the Summer. We’re probably going to be doing a public beta, get a few people involved, and try to expand that out as the year goes on, leading up to the fall.”
So there you go — fall. Let’s hope he’s talking about fall of 2008, eh?
