LittleBigPlanet gets October 30 release date ... in Japan photo

Well, it looks like Media Molecule's PlayStation 3 exclusive LittleBigPlanet finally has a release date. Well, at least it does in Japan; according to Sony's Japanese LPB Web site, the game will be released on October 30 for 5,980 yen (roughly $56 US). 

We'd be lying if we said we weren't secretly plotting to ninja our way into Media Molecule's United Kingdom-based offices to grab our own copy of LittleBigPlanet. After it was first revealed over a year ago at GDC 07, we've been teased with trailers and empty (so far) promises of a public beta. Give it to us. Now. 

No word on when the game will drop in North America, but we'd say October seems like a reasonable month to release to release a game where you control a creepy little sack monster boy.

So Japan gets it in three months? That sounds too far for my own liking. Sucks to hear I will probably have to wait even longer than that before I can play it. Take your time, make this game amazing!

My first thought was WTF 09 release, then i realized it wasn't being developed in Japan. and calmed down a bit, it would have taken at least 3-5 more months for a port lol

heres hoping we get it within the same time frame
