Originally created for the Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3), this platformer was made available on the PlayStation Portable (PSP) in 2009 with a release date of November 17 in North America, enabling fans to take the game to whole new levels. This new entry in the LittleBigPlanet series of games delivers a brand new story mode, hours of exciting gameplay, and beautifully redesigned levels that capture the feeling of the original perfectly. Developed by SCE Cambridge Studio along with Media Molecule, LittleBigPlanet for PSP plays much like its PS3 predecessor, though without the multiplayer aspect. The PSP platform story mode offers 23 main levels and 14 mini levels, all of which are centered on themes that fans might recognize from the original game. Though the look of these levels might be familiar, each one has a new design, giving the game freshness despite similarities in gameplay and design. The story for LittleBigPlanet for PSP is a sequel to the PS3 LBP that follows Sackboy as he walks around the world, gathering Creator Curators and convincing them to attend a carnival in Brazil. This adventure takes Sackboy through several different environments, from The Orient in China to the Hollywood-inspired Tinsel Town, and introduces him to a cast of unique characters. Each character brings that larger-than-life personality that gives the LBP games their colorfulness and sense of fun. Much as with the original game and with the succeeding games for PS4, LittleBigPlanet for PSP focuses on collecting, building, and sharing. LBP is a platformer that encourages players to create and share their own levels within the community, and that is carried over in this entry into the series. With hundreds of items to collect throughout the various story mode levels, you have the opportunity to create anything your imagination can think up. Downloadable content provides even more materials, stickers, and costumes you can use to create your own levels or customize your playable characters. Whether you like to think up fiendishly difficult obstacles or focus on dressing up interesting characters in your games, LittleBigPlanet for PSP gives you plenty of ways to let your creativity shine. It’s easy to share your creations with the rest of the LBP community, letting other players try their hands at your levels. Simply post your designs to the community pool, and wait for other fans to discover the new addition you’ve made available. On the flip side, you can also download content that other players have created, giving yourself even more levels to play through once you’ve completed the story mode. With such a vast pool available at your fingertips, you can easily add hours of gameplay to your PSP LittleBigPlanet experience, allowing you to linger for a bit longer in Sackboy’s vibrant world. This combination of new platforming levels, the ability to make your own creations.
