DEMO and GOTY in-stores next week
Sept 10 – For those of you who haven't "jumped in the sack" with LBP yet, head over to the PS Store on Sept 10, and you'll be able to download a free playable demo of LittleBigPlanet.

The demo is filled with – PLAY: a hand full of in-game levels and mini-games by yourself or with 3 of your friends, CREATE: Customize your Sackboy and plaster levels with a variety of stickers and objects, SHARE: a few community levels picked from the over 125MM levels created online.

Hopefully, you'll get hooked just in time for the release of the Game of the Year Edition (coincidentally next week as well :) ). If your just getting your hands on a new PlayStation 3, check out the Examiner.com's "Top five games to purchase along with your new PS3" – which just happens to have LBP #1…and conveniently just arrived in our offices!

Why not? A year ago, the game was so hyped that many people were going to buy it without a demo including me.

A year on, the PS3 Slim is on the shelves so the fan base has increased, and the LBP community is declining and that is solely what the game revolves around.

Especially as the GOTY edition comes out at the same time.

Finally I can see what this game is all about. It looks like just a platformer but I'll see.

Yeah a lot of people (including myself) who were not PS3 owners last year, or even last month are looking for games to buy and nothing grabs a new owner's attention like a new demo being released. I'll try the demo and if I like it (which I'm told I will), I'll buy it -- and I'm sure there are others in the same boat as I am.

Makes sense. I hope it convinces some new PS3 owners to pick up the game.

Yes it is amazingly stupid to release a demo now to rebuild some hype for the game right before the GOTY Edition hits stores. What were they thinking? Why on earth would they want people talking about LBP this late after its release when they're planning to sell a GOTY Edition. Why oh why? Please think before you post.

its called a clever business strategy, Activision did the same with COD 5 before the release of MW2 to boost sales, it might work, it might not, it dont hurt them for trying

what's the point of the demo? and what's the point of buying the goty edition?? the only thing that matters in LBP is the option to download (or create) user-made levels (and they are free), I don't see why anyone would pay more to have a painball gun some disguises and some user made levels that anyone can download for free, this is just my view on the matter))
