Contraption Challenge 13: Submarine
The Contraption Challenges make a bold return for LittleBigPlanet 2, with a new challenge to build a working Submarine. It may sound simple, but if you dare pit yourself against the hardened contraption creators, you will be up for a real challenge!
This is the first Contraption Challenge since the Launch of LittleBigPlanet 2, the previous ones all being in the first game,so we expect some interesting things to say the least!

A LittleBig Journey
As part of their Make.Believe series, Sony filmed a mini documentary type thing detailing how Sony changed the lives of Media Molecule designers John and Christophe, who were both hired from the community after they impressed Mm with their LittleBigPlanet creations.

Play for Japan: Own a piece of LittleBigPlanet history, or buy your way into royalty
This post is somewhat overdue, but it’s time to talk about the tragic events that have been unfolding in Japan recently. There’s perhaps no need to go into too much detail, we all know about the earthquake and subsequent tsunami that has caused immense devastation, and loss of life there, we all know they face a very tough time ahead, and can do with all the help they can get.
The games industry obviously has special ties with Japan. These people are our colleagues, friends, family, team mates, opponents, compadres, buddies… you’ve played their LittleBigPlanet levels, and they’ve played yours. That’s why people from within the games industry have come together to build the Play For Japan campaign.
Play For Japan aims to channel the passion and generosity of gamers into a relief effort, through events, donations, and auctions of rare and interesting gaming memorabilia. That’s where we will be joining in, with five auctions we hope will raise some much needed cash for those in need. All the money raised will be donated to the Red Cross Appeal.

The LittleBigMap
The awesome LittleBigPlanet fan community is filled with helpful, friendly and creative folk. But it’s also pretty darn huge, and spread out across the world and the web – so if you want to dip your toe in, it can be hard to know where to start. That’s where the brand new ‘LittleBigMap’ comes in…
