With the runaway success of the Xbox 360 and Wii, there are many who maintained Sony had lost its way with the chunky PS3. But in LittleBigPlanet, the console has a title it's worth owning a machine just to play. A hugely creative package that allows players to make their own platforming challenges and share them with friends online, LittleBigPlanet's simple and intuitive interface means that everyone can be a game developer - so long as all their virtual heroes look like voodoo-animated happy sacks.
