October 28th! Originally dated for Oct 21st. Reason for this is the soundtrack in the game contain offensive language to some Muslims. This resulted in a worldwide recall of the game which most retailers already have in stock. What a big waste of time and money, they could of just released a patch to block out the soundtrack. Now this cost Sony a great deal of money...and time wasted for eager gamers.

"During the review process prior to the release of LittleBigPlanet, it has been brought to our attention that one of the background music tracks licensed from a record label for use in the game contains two expressions that can be found in the Qur'an," admitted the company in a statement.

"We have taken immediate action to rectify this and we sincerely apologise for any offence that this may have caused."

Some people managed to have the game already by finding local mom and pops shop who sold it early. Lucky you. For most of us, we have to wait an additional week.
