Sony talks portable LittleBigPlanet, Guitar Hero/Rock BandPosted 10:20am Wed Nov 19, 2008 by Zach Lott Tags: PSP, Sony, LittleBigPlanet, Guitar Hero, Rock Band

Rumors that LittleBigPlanet is getting a PSP iteration have been around since April and were recently strengthened by a rumor found within the pages of the latest Electronic Gaming Monthly (EGM), so MTV's Multiplayer Blog asked Sony's John Koller about the rumors during a phone interview yesterday.

Koller's comments from the story:

"'LittleBigPlanet’ is so expansionary. I think the developer’s really concentrating on right now making sure that the launched product is everything it could be and can be. We’re watching the UGC [user generated content] and seeing how that’s playing out. But for the future, I think certainly, we’d look at a wide variety of opportunities. Whether that’s the PSP or not, I can’t really say. We certainly look at ‘LittleBigPlanet’ franchise as a going forward franchise for us, and that speaks to the PlayStation brand overall.”

DLC For Wii Version Of Rock Band 2 ConfirmedPosted 5:48pm Mon Sep 29, 2008 by Zach Lott Tags: Rock Band 2, Wii, DLC

Good news for you Wii owners who missed out on DLC for the original Rock Band: Kotaku is reporting that a USA Today story has confirmed that the Wii version of Rock Band 2 will receive the same DLC support as the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions.

"While unannounced, MTV Games has confirmed that the upcoming Nintendo Wii version of ``Rock Band 2'' will offer the same online functionality — i.e. song downloads and Internet multiplayer modes — as the Microsoft Xbox 360 and Sony PS3 versions. The PS2 version, however, will not include online connectivity," says the article.

While this is certainly a good thing for Wii owners, it is still uncertain about whether or not the full array of DLC for the original Rock Band will ever be made available on Wii, though a select number of DLC songs were packaged and released through retail back in July. Keep your fingers crossed.
