its been pushed into november, some thing with the game is not right so we will be waiting for a little longer

"• 2008-10-17: På grund utav feltryck vid tillverkning är Little Big Planets release i Europa uppskjuten cirka 2-4 veckor. Detta gäller samtliga återförsäljare, ej specifikt Webhallen. Vi kommer att uppdatera vår websida med nytt releasedatum så fort detta bekräftats av den nordiska distributören."

if you can read swedish

here is the link; WEBHALLEN.com [Little Big Planet]

it basically says that due to a printing error the release for LBP in europe is postponed 2-4 weeks. and this is all of europe apparantly

nah, its for real. i work at a store that sells computer hardware and games and its 100% true

Just checked on cvg.com and apparently earlier today Zavvi (formerly Virgin I think) emailed it's pre-order customers to say that release had been put back until 14th Nov.

That said they have since emailed them again to say the first email was an error and release is still scheduled for next friday.

Confused am I

Here, an up to date article on thesixthaxis regarding this ordeal. It's a pity if it is recalled but i guess that gives me more time to get the money together and finish far cry 2 also.

Here's two links related to the situation and the possible reason for its supposed recall

Offensive Material - Playstation EU forums - Link

The SixthAxis - LBP Delay - Link

Hope this is helpful to you guys.

Is this just Europe?

YurtleTehTurtle · 10-17-2008, 03:02 PM

Ok, cvg just updated their story to say an official statement is expected from Sony very soon. It looks like this may be true

Offensive Muslim phrases in the in-game music; this cock up makes M$' RROD look like a minor error.

Oh well, what else is due out next week?

Sarnath · 10-17-2008, 03:10 PM

what about far cry 2, bioshock and dead space? all due next week
