Sony has confirmed with us this morning that LittleBigPlanet will be out in September.

An autumn release date for the quirky PS3 game was hinted at yesterday, when producer Kyle Shubel spoke about the 2008 timeline for the title in a demonstration at CES in Las Vegas.

A LittleBigPlanet demo was expected toward the end of 2007 but failed to materialise. A rep from Sony's UK had no further news on a release date for the demo at this time.

In LittleBigPlanet you start off as a small teddy bear-like creature made from wool, and you use your little avatar to construct in-game objects using materials such as wood and cloth.

With a bit more time however you can construct entire levels that can then be ran through in a side-scrolling platformer style.

As for the wait...we should all be use to that by now no matter what system you own, and this is one of those games that I think will be worth the wait.
