Sony's platformer secures its place in Guiness World Records with five awards
The results are in, after Sony Computer Entertainment America hosted a three day celebration in an effort to set five Guinness World Records attributed to LittleBigPlanet 2.
Beginning Monday, January 17 and concluding on Wednesday, January 19, dedicated LittleBigPlanet fans took over the PlayStation Lounge at the Sony Style store in New York City to earn their place in history.

Throughout the three day period, three spirited gamers headlined the historic run with various fans, developers, and local supporters taking turns sitting in the fourth chair to be part of the action.
“We’d like to congratulate the dedicated group of gamers and the entire LittleBigPlanet 2 team on setting five new Guinness World Records, an impressive accomplishment in such a short period of time,” said Scott A. Steinberg, Vice President of Product Marketing, SCEA. “With LittleBigPlanet 2 releasing this week, it’s fantastic to see so many fans embrace this launch, which continues to illustrate the endless fun that this title provides for fans and newcomers, as well as the entire family.”
