SCE Australia giving away LittleBigPlanet with PS3 purchase

It's nice to know that not all recent LittleBigPlanet articles are depressing. This one should brighten up one's day -- or at least it will for the Aussies down under. SCE Australia plans to give away a no-strings-attached free copy of LittleBigPlanet with every PS3 purchased this holiday season. The promotion was supposed to begin on October 23, which was the original LBP launch date in Australia.

With LittleBigPlanet currently delayed, this promo will be effective starting at a later time. Australia has yet to have an official new release date finalized. Optimistically speaking, Australia's shouldn't be too far from Europe's release timeframe of "week of November 3."
