It appears that LittleBigPlanet for the PS3 is about to be officially delayed until fall 2008… which would be Septemberish South African time… Feo actually posted about this at the exact same time I did… We both obviously want to see this game succeed, Personally I was really stoked about this game but then it started taking to long and …
