This is amazing. One devoted fan who goes under the PSN ID of “RRR30000″ used his creative skills to recreate the opening level from Gradius, a classic coin-op shooter, in none other than LittleBigPlanet. From the erupting volcano to the first epic boss fight, it’s all there. For those interested, be sure to fire up LittleBigPlanet level browser and search for his PSN ID to download this creation. And for those without a PS3 or LittleBigPlanet, you’ll just have to settle with watching the video clip above.
