What's a better incentive to create a level in LittleBigPlanet than good, hard cold cash? According to recent comments by David Reeves, president of SCEE, that's what's planned for the upcoming community-driven platformer. "What we're trying to do with LittleBigPlanet is almost iTunes meets eBay in the sense that once an individual or a developer has qualified by producing certain levels or certain add-ons, they will then be able in the future to exchange these and make money out of them," Reeves notes. "Eventually, it's feasible that you might well see the first LittleBigPlanet millionaire!"

It appears that how much creators can charge for content is also user-determined. "Even if you charge less than one euro, it doesn't take many downloads if you've got a really strong LittleBigPlanet level for people to be able to make money. It's a great way for people to show others what they can do." This may give aspiring level designers a chance to not only show off their creativity, but turn their skills into profit.

Thats tight work. but I think it'll be a huge headache

But thats one of the best ideas ive heard

Not to mention there would be a lot of people charging for shit levels, and people will end up taking the plunge :<.

Outlaw_91791 · 07-21-2008, 01:15 AM

in my opinion they should do some type of rating shit (if they aren't doing one already) so people can know what are the best user created levels.

Grahf16 · 07-21-2008, 01:45 AM

Even then, that still means somebody is going to take the plunge and waste money to even get hands on experience of playing it just to say it sucks.

Besides, what does Sony get out of this? There must be SOME kind of cut the Big S gets for doing this.

They should at least allow users to perform some "preview" so that they can tour the map before playing with it.
