UK LittleBigPlanet sales top 200,000

The Electronic Leisure Software Publishers Association (ELSPA) has issued Media Molecule’s LittleBigPlanet its prestigious gold status award, following UK sales of the game topping the 200,000 mark.

According to Edge, the impressive milestone can be attributed to a stellar marketing campaign for the social platformer, which saw numerous advertisements hogging our TV screens throughout the holiday season.

Furthermore, Edge notes that that game is soon to surpass the 300,000 milestone, at which point the game will bag itself a Platinum award.

All in all, a solid performance and proof that even the most acclaimed titles can sometimes take a while to gather steam. No more sleepless nights for SackBoy, then
