According to THE INTERNET, a Sony marketing manager in Benelux has spilled the beans about LittleBigPlanet 2. Folkert Langeveld of Sony Computer Entertainment Benelux mentioned LittleBigPlanet 2 in an online video, where he also revealed that Media Molecule's sequel would use the PlayStation Move. Because apparently, every Sony game needs to use Move now.
Of course, Sony has not officially announced this, so take it with a grain of salt. However, I have no doubt Sony is making this happen. The LittleBigPlanet IP was never as huge as Sony and everybody else expected it to be, and restructuring it around Move just makes sense from a "let's try to sell this again" standpoint. If LBP2 with waggle isn't announced before Move launches, I'll be very surprised.
Naturally, it goes totally against what Media Molecule said when it claimed they would never want to make a sequel, but a developer telling a fib is nothing new in this industry.

The only way to justify a second would be to completely rework the creation around the use of the PS Move, which would be great for the less patient among us. I still think it would make more sense to rework it within the original title.
True story.
LBP is brilliant, but creating with a controller is extremely time consuming and can be quite frustrating.
Now the whole, dragging, dropping, 3D mouse, twisting, turning, perspective changing action they showed with the Move on endgadget will fit LBP perfectly. IMHO.
Adding Move isn't going to be all it takes.
All that said it could totally make level editing less of a pain in the ass.
If Move is like Wii Motion Plus, I think it could work great.
Here's a recap of the last ten comments you've made:
Re: Only idiots blame the 360 for FF XIII's problems
People who read Jim Sterling articles are pretty stupid, too. You should write an article on that.
Re: Four years of Destructoid: A collection of wacky memories
Wonder what it's like working with a douchebag like Jim Sterling. Do you have to put your lunches that you bring in under lock and key?
Re: Why Sonic the Hedgehog 4 will SUCK
Why this article will suck: It's written by the useless Jim Sterling.
Re: The joys of being a videogame reviewer
And as usual, the comments are overflowing with people lining up to gobble Jim's tiny little johnson.
Re: The joys of being a videogame reviewer
Waaaaah, waaaaah... Jim "Chubbs" Sterling whips up troll articles and reviews to get attention, and then cries when he gets it. You're useless.
Re: Here's what Heavy Rain's 'The Taxidermist' DLC looks like
Sorry Jimbo. The response thus far has been pretty well positive. I know how much you hate that, too. Sorry. :)
Re: How Heavy Rain has lowered the bar for game narrative
Wow, moron. We get it. You hate Sony. Shut the hell up about it.
Re: Review: Deadly Premonition
And Jim Sterling continues to cement his place in history as the most worthless video game reviewer in the history of this industry. Well done, chubbs.
Re: Deadly Premonition is blatantly better than Heavy Rain
Hey, alright. It's big fat and useless Jim Sterling, in with another winner of an article!
Re: Videogame 'fans' need to shut up about everything
I don't really find much fault with video game fans. I would however support Jim Sterling shutting up.
It should be noted that two of these articles were neither written by nor commented on by Jim, and yet you still, somehow, managed to drag him into the conversation.
You really need to get a life.
So uh, how is this not a big franchise or not as big as Sony wanted, or is Jim just trolling me?
(Although.. I'm still not likely to get it seeing as I don't have a ps3 yet and I have no intention of purchasing Move ever)
You would think Jim wsa aware of this wouldn't you?
