Little Big Planet has been delayed worldwide due to the inclusion of quotes from the Quran, reports VideoGaming247. In a forum thread, a Muslim user commented that he noticed two passages from the Quran in a licensed music track for the stage, “Swinging Safari.” He respectfully requested that they be removed, explaining that some consider the mixture of a holy book with pop music to be offensive. Sony pulled the game despite it already being on retail shelves in some areas, and has issued this statement:

During the review process prior to the release of Little Big Planet, it has been brought to our attention that one of the background music tracks licensed from a record label for use in the game contains two expressions that can be found in the Quran. We have taken immediate action to rectify this and we sincerely apologise for any offence that this may have caused.We’ll confirm the new launch date shortly.

Sony will probably have to press new discs that don’t include that licensed song

But the PlayStation.Blog has updated with a new release date, October 27 in North America.

  • Screw Konami

    After wasting almost a day in downloading Metal gear solid online premium beta, and after upgrading to the new version, I just cant simply get a Konami ID and a game ID from their ugly website https://id.konami.net/
    And why cause there is a huge traffic!!!
    I cant believe a company like Konami cant have powerful servers and smart people to solve this issue!!!
    or they were not expecting this huge traffic??
    I dunno why they didnt simply stuck with the PSN(playsation network) ID??
