The fine folks over at Don’t Panic have sent word that public advance previews of Media Molecule’s ambitious world-creation title LittleBigPlanet will kick off later this week on September 12 as part of a PlayStation-sponsored event hosted at Piccadilly Plaza in Manchester, England. Through October 4, gamers can drop by and express their creativity in LBP before the game’s retail release. Top Mancunian artists Luke Drodz, Sketch City and Chris Drury will be in attendance during the coming weeks, explaining the design ideas behind LBP. Entrance is completely free – but of course, space is limited, so be sure to head out early.
