Could LittleBigPlanet be getting a sequel this year? That's the rumour coming from VG247 this morning, as a source in the know says that a game called "LBP2" - be it disc-based or downloadable - is heading for a "cast iron" 2010 ship date.Sony is currently making preparations for a big press conference at GDC on Wednesday, but no details are available as to what the event will discuss. With -
the now Sony-owned - Media Molecule insisting that a sequel would be "the most counter-productive thing you could do," we wonder if the whispers are a result of the studio changing its mind.
LittleBigPlanet was
demonstrated using Sony's motion control technology some time ago - could a sequel, or patch, be planned to add this kind of functionality? Time will tell if even the rumour is true, later this week.
