According to new details from the developers themselves concerning one of the PS3’s shining gems, LittleBigPlanet, server space for level uploads in the game will be limited. Though that’s a given; what were people expecting..? Unlimited space?
Interestingly though, users who create popular levels will be given more space, allowing the more creative gamers to upload more of their unique level designs.
So lets hope your imagination is up to scratch, or you won’t be able to share too many of you crazy ideas with the world!

Excellent, this will allow people with real imagination to upload neat levels, and restrict morons from upload their “failed experiments,” (i.e. bull crap levels uploaded just for the hell of it.)
Yes and no. Every user can store their personal levels on their own ‘moon’ and invite any of their friends to play. That hasn’t changed.
This news speaks to one of my few concerns with this ground-breaking title. There will EASILY be 100,000 user created levels uploaded by XMAS, so how could they possibly be accomodated within the onscreen Craft Earth?
Whenever we see demos, we only see a dozen or so levels pinned to the globe at any one time - that’s about to change big-time! The good news here is that each level tends to be very small in terms of file size, so they could host more levels than anyone would ever have the time to play.
From everything we’ve seen so far, I have nothing but confidence that MM and Sony will do this right…
I think its a good idea
