Last week’s announcement that Sony would be bundling the revolutionary new game LittleBigPlanet with PS3s this week was put on hold thanks to Sony discovering one of the songs they used in the soundtrack included passages from the Qur’an. If you want to know all about that clusterfuck, hit up Kotaku.
However, Sony Australia are working hard at getting not only LittleBigPlanet out the door, but also the aforementioned bundle. Although it won’t be a bundle as such – more just a free copy of LittleBigPlanet when you buy a PS3. As it stands, they’re targeting a November 7 launch date, but we’ll let you know if it gets put back again because they discover a song that talks about tipping cows or something.

Our good friend Seamus is holding the fort over at Kotaku AU at the moment, and has spent today with the people at Sony Australia, learning all about their upcoming products. One that might be of interest to you guys is that from next week, you’ll be able to get your Sackboy fix with your new PS3, as Sony are bundling LittleBigPlanet with their PS3 console from October 23.
There won’t be any change to that $700 price tag though, so look at it as getting a (good) free game with your PS3 purchase.
