Built for Blu-ray: LittleBigPlanet won't have PSN version

Despite the fact that Sony has previously listed
LittleBigPlanet as a disc-only affair, there continue to be doubters. The crew at Bits Bytes Pixels Sprites decided to end any debate as to whether or not
LBP would be a BD and/or PSN release. Being in the northern bit of North America, it rang up Sony's Canadian PR crew, who replied that "The game will be available at retail. The user [generated] content will be available on the PSN." Okay, Canada's covered.
We got in touch with
LBP's US PR manager, Scott Goryl, who had this to say: "
LittleBigPlanet is a Blu-ray Disc product exclusively for PS3," adding, "
LBP will utilize much of PlayStation Network's vast functionality for online and community features, but the game will indeed be distributed as a Blu-ray Disc." Sorry folks, but you'll totally, absolutely, definitely have to tack on the price of gas to that $59.99 as you trudge down to one of those old-fashioned "game stores" to pick it up.
