LittleBigPlanet has over 600,000 user-created levels

Occasionally, game developers launch press releases for no other reason than to proclaim how totally awesome their games are. One such release just landed in our inbox courtesy of Media Molecule, describing the many accolades that have been bestowed upon LittleBigPlanet -- though we were more interested in a few statistics hidden in the print: Altogether, LBP's 1,934,700-strong online community has produced an average 35,373 levels a week since the game's release, for a whopping total of 646,135 user-generated levels.

Sure, 350,000 of those are simple trophy-collection levels, 200,000 are item-sharing stages, and 95,500 have Phoenix Games-esque production values -- but 635 of the levels stamped on LBP's highly texturized globe are precious, precious gems. That's more than enough to keep us busy for quite some time.
