LittleBigPlanet netting over $150 on eBay

Don't recall saying Islam = terrorism. I'M not the one jumping to that conclusion.

I'm confused, who's selling these copies? Game store employees who stole copies?

Just more ridiculousness heaped upon what I already find to be ridiculous news.

LBP: Infidel Edition! It would sell millions!!!

Well, LBP did have a Twin Towers map...

Possible connection?!

@cbebop007

I thought that to at first, but I know what Jim was trying to get accross so its no big deal to me.

@cbebop007

Considering muslims are against LBP and the picture is clearly depicting Osama in the act of purchasing LBP, the only thing the picture might be claiming is that Osama Bin Laden is a bad muslim. Which I think is a perfectly rational opinion.

150 DOLLARS?!?!

Wish I had that kind of money to throw away needlessly.
I going to pay 40-45 quid for it, that's it, I've preordered it today.

I just can't see why people whould pay THAT much, maybe if it was a super rare special edition, but it has one song, that's it. Bar the lyrics/song, it'll be the same game in a week's time that I'll be playing.

Some people are just too desperate, or idiotic. :(

Didn't people learn about speculating from the PS3 launch?

I'm more impressed that Jim is STILL posting stuff, less than a day after the INCREDIBLE SING STERLING! Kudos to you once again, you awesome British gamer! ^_^

Header picture is in bad taste. :/

HOLY CRAP JIM! Apparently your header picture is in bad taste. Could you have possibly NOT foreseen this? OMG! Seriously, who could have seen this coming :o

Probably won't be a collector's item as Media Molecule will probably release that patch anyway.

It must be really hard to breath up there on your high horses there, guys.

@ neshill:

Humor is only as disrespectful as you allow it to be. Too bad you can't enjoy religion jokes. Probably means you don't like race jokes either. Or sexuality ones. Or gender ones. Or Nationality ones.

knock knock jokes?

Faultymoose, where are you my son? lulz.

Go get em.

The people that are offended by this post are the reason Sony had to delay the game...somehow.

"Islamazing... Qur'azy..."

You will burn in a fire for these comments, Jim. A fire of HUMOR and GLORY! I laughed out loud. Spelled out, so you know it's good.

Everyone "offended" by the article... ten bucks says you're not even Muslim, so like any and all good white people you're being "PC" and being offended FOR someone else. Get a fucking life, lighten up, and piss off. Tis a joke, son, tis a joke.

I'm a Muslim, though feeling uncomfortable about the pic, I'm not offended by it. Y'know why? We live in a free society, one that gives us the right to religion, but also a right to free speech, Jim is merely excercising that right, as I excerise the other right daily. They are both equal, both deserve the upmost respect. We can chosse who to believe in, but also what to laugh at, what to say, who/what to criticize, it's our right.

I just can't believe people are STILL criticizing Jim, it's been bloddy AGES sice he began writing for this site, I thought even newcomers know how he writes.

Sorry to go off on one Jim, I just can't stand people who don't realise this, does me head in!! :)

Chill the fuck out people, please?

I demand this article be recalled!

I think that Jim is an alien whose biochemistry is one that thrives on controversy, like the one original Star Trek episode with the out-of-focus pinwheel that kept the Enterprise and Klingon crews fighting.

We're onto you, Jim! Watch yourself! :)

Uh oh Jim, you better watch out for those Islamic fanatics. I hear they're in force over in Britain.

@EternalDeathSlayer I am more scared of catholics than muslims- but maybe that's because I am an atheist and large institutionalized indoctrination scares me more than small factional indoctrination.

I was going to say, "in before atheist-provoked flame war", but I don't know if that will apply as we'll have to see if any Catholics take whormongr's bait or not.

People buying this game for $150 are either very dumb and foolish or simply have much more money than your average bear. It will not be a collector's item. Maybe if the defect was a sackboy giving the finger on the front cover, sure. But a song or two that no one cares about in the soundtrack? And if you're paying just so you can play the game a few weeks early, that is just as sad.
