The title will be released in North America in the week commencing October 27th – meaning most likely October 28th.

It was announced on Friday that LittleBigPlanet had been delayed owing to some vocal objections to use of lines from Muslim holy text the Qu’ran, leading to a healthy business erupting on eBay.
