Little Big Planet Controversy.

LittleBigPlanet (sometimes abbreviated to LBP and developed under the working title The Next Big Thing) is an upcoming puzzle platformer and world creation video game for the PlayStation 3, first announced on 7 March 2007, by Phil Harrison at the 2007 Game Developers Conference in San Francisco, California. It is being developed by Media Molecule, a British company founded in part by Rag Doll Kung Fu creator Mark Healey, will be published by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe. A last-minute delay pushed back the game's release worldwide.

Upon the release of little big planet, the developers had found out that there were two Quranic verses in one of the game's background music. They had pushed back the release date for the game just to delete the the sound track, millions of blu-ray discs were recalled by Sony and this had caused eagered fans to be disappointed. As a devout muslim and extreme gamer my self, i dont feel that this matter disturbing to the muslim community and it is not OFFENSIVE because there were only two very short verses that say "Every soul shall have the taste of death..." and "All that is on earth will perish...". Well it is true that every 'Soul' would taste death and nothing lives forever execpt for god. Well my verdict is game developers should be careful what they make and try not to make the same mistake again. Luckily it was only a small portion of the Quran.
