Make a Living off LittleBigPlanet!

We learn more about the soon-to-be PS3 phenomenon every day, but the information dug up from the comments of David Reeves, president of SCEE is particularly interesting. It seems that users will be able to eventually register their unique content for sale in the LBP marketplace, or something to that effect.

“What we’re trying to do with LittleBigPlanet is almost iTunes meets eBay in the sense that once an individual or a developer has qualified by producing certain levels or certain add-ons, they will then be able in the future to exchange these and make money out of them,” Reeves notes. “Eventually, it’s feasible that you might well see the first LittleBigPlanet millionaire!”

Looks like you’ll also be able to decide what to charge for your masterpiece. “Even if you charge less than one Euro, it doesn’t take many downloads if you’ve got a really strong LittleBigPlanet level for people to be able to make money. It’s a great way for people to show others what they can do.” A cool concept, definitely. I would hope that there’ll be enough free content out there that no one will be forced to pay for additional levels, but the best of the creative can make a few bucks doing what they do best.
