Fans of The Sims virtual-world-creating game will have a general idea of what to expect from the remarkable new creation for Sony's Playstation 3 called LittleBigPlanet.
What is astonishing, though, is the level of complex ingenuity and simple charm that has been employed throughout. There are no rules to speak of -- you play the game by creating and then interacting within an environment. All the "materials" you're given to work with are basic, everyday items: wood, an orange, a cog.
True, that doesn't sound like any big whoop. Well, seeing is believing. Watch a few minutes of the video by the game's creators and see if you aren't utterly seduced. We were.
