A Sony rep has now confirmed that LittleBigPlanet is not region locked. The representitive said that "there will only be one region for the game.... a LittleBigRegion."

"The confusion arose out of regional differences in how moderation will work as there are different legal rules each region have to play by, and at one point this looked like it may require the game to be independent in each region". Thankfully, this was unnecessary in the end. So you can stop fretting now; your level creations will be playable worldwide and, perhaps more importantly, we're going to have a huge selection of content from all different cultures to play with soon after launch."

This is great news for anyone thinking about buying the game.

Yeah, it would have sucked if the regions were locked out. I'm in a group of gamers who have a team prepared for the release of LBP and we will be team making stages so this helps out a lot.

I'm very glad to hear this Now I can get great levels from Mana.

Hopefully. I won't be making them alone though. As I said, I'm with a bunch of other people who got together specifically to make levels for this game. I'm getting more and more anxious the closer we get to it!

Oh my god this is awesome, me and my friend used to have hours of fun on TimeSplitters map maker, making crazy maps, hopefully you guys will see LBP levels from us!
