LittleBigPlanet patch v1.01 goes live: song's still there, but what about the lyrics? |
Listed in: PS3 Tags: LittleBigPlanet, Media Molecule, Sony
Ó
For those who've broken the LittleBigPlanet street date, the very first patch is now available. LBP v1.01 is set to "rectify" the Qur'an references in one of the songs - which is strange because, if all it needed was a patch from Media Molecule, then why did Sony have to recall the discs?
Oh. Right. Here's your answer: it's because Sony said that "the right thing to do for quality and support of people with no on-line was to replace existing disks." We're assuming that this patch is being prepared to be built right onto the disc, to be fair to those people who can't download the patch.
Here's something interesting though: the actual "song" which caused the whole controversy is still included in the game after it being patch, and right now, sources state that the v1.01 patch has either "removed, censored, or looped around" the offensive lyrics.

Think about it for at least 1 second.
Not everyone has INTERNET. Not everyone has INTERNET hooked up to their PS3. The game does not require internet access. You can play locally. Thus, they would never get the update.

I'm deeply offended by the fact that this patch removes only part of the song, and not the whole thing!

Plus, that doesn't take into account all the original "bad" copies that are then sold after the initial purchaser. So that leaves a pretty big hole.

Hope you're enjoying it, while I've been forced to play COD4 for yet another week!

Anyway, who is that aimed at? I'm certainly not 'dying over the game'! Well, I might be without realising, as I don't really understand the meaning of it!!!

What facts?
Nobody cares what you are. Nobody is dieing . (bacause of the game) (and well not everyone is suicidal).You need to stop pretending to be the victim . We all know you guys got offended but get over it . The song is still there, so just chill the ***** off. If you "die" for a game you are nothing short of a "geek", posting and expressing people's feeling is our rights. What, are you going to make us feel bad just because we post?

Every store I've gone to has said they just changed the release date. The discs are all sitting in the back of the store. Gamestop, Target, Wal-mart, Circuit City, Best Buy - the games are all STILL THERE!
It's complete BS.
