Media Molecule Want To Make Ensure Everyone Gets The Best LBP Experience.

Media Molecule's Alex Evans told VG247 that the team wanted the "retail" disc to be perfect and something the company could be "proud of", ensuring those without their PlayStation 3 connected to the Internet would receive the "full experience" without patches. We're not sure you can get the full LittleBigPlanet experience without the Internet, but obviously we totally get Alex's point.

"We could have shipped it and it would have been fine," Evans said. "However we realized that with just a couple of extra weeks we could make the game super amazing, adding the super onto the already amazing which exists today. This is something that will live forever and the delay, people will forget about."

You've got to appreciate the honesty. For as disappointed as we are about LittleBigPlanet's delay (and we are devastated) — it's this kind of commitment that make Media Molecule one of our favourite developers. Hats off folks.
