Very subtle but looks amazing!

So Little Big Planet is being delayed. One of the most highly anticipated titles of the holiday season and one of the most uniquely designed games in quite some time, being held back. Game-breaking bugs? Balance changes? Nope. Get a load of this:

“However, fans of the game are going to have to wait slightly longer to get it. Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has announced that it is recalling the game from retailers after it learned that the soundtrack featured some Arabic-language lines from the Qur’an backed with music. A SCEE representative also confirmed to GameSpot that this recall would be global, and could not confirm when the game would now actually hit shelves with the offending music removed.

The confirmation follows rumours that that Singing Safari level of the game features a song with two expressions found in Islam’s central holy text, the Qur’an. Cached pages on the official PlayStation forum claim that the two phrases are (literally translated from the original Arabic): “Every soul shall have the taste of death” and “All that is on earth will perish.”"

This is so random and weird and nonsensical that I really have no idea at all how it happened. Truth really is stranger than fiction. So, when is Little Big Planet’s Release Date?

Description: Well, it’s October… Here’s a little something to get the month started You play as Death himself out on another day on the job. No connection between victims, just ruthless – and entertaining – murder in an arcadish point n ‘ click puzzle style. I’ll be the first to tell you it’s short, but it was just something fun for October and, to me, fit well with the holiday, although a little early A couple of notes: * Some things require the right timing, so going click-crazy won’t always help you. * Different items become available through actions (I think you’ll see what I mean). *** If you find it too easy, I apologize and may add more too it in time, if it’s too hard, right click and choose “download walkthrough, this will open the walkthrough in your browser.

So I’ve had the Samsung 52″ A650 HDTV for about a month now and I’m confident in saying I made the right choice.I have used all HDMI 1.3 connections. I have an Onkyo TX-SR705 A/V receiver which is great.

Watching HD content from DirecTV is pure pleasure to eyes. Eventhough I am sitting just 7-8 feet from this huge TV, I see breathtaking picture quality that I did not notice in any other HDTVs. There are some complaints about black levels, but the blacks are very deep and crisp to me in settings from movies to sports.

Blu-Ray picture quality is simply spectacular. It is by far the best home viewing experience I’ve ever had.
My one quibble is with the quality of picture with non-HD content on this TV. My old Panasonic plasma did a much better job at this. My only hope is that most channels would make the switch to HD in the coming years.
