There's one sad truth in life I've found
While journeying east and west -
The only folks we really wound
Are those we love the best.
We flatter those we scarcely know,
We please the fleeting guest,
And deal full many a thoughtless blow
To those who love us best.

LittleBigPlanet IGN Review, Media Molecule delivers an instant classic.
www.ps3.ign.com
10 Presentation
The way that everything is intertwined and flows and works together is perfect. The tagging system needs to be fixed, but that's it.
9.5 Graphics
Pixar would be proud. The visuals are cute, clean, stylistic and simply beautiful, while the art direction is absolutely top-notch.
9.5 Sound
The soundtrack is as perfect as it gets. On the editor side, there could be more specific samples, but you won't be counting while playing the Story mode.
9.5 Gameplay
The controls could be a tad tighter and the plane-shifting stuff needs works, but the overall package design is simply phenominal. The editor is amazing given that it's on a console.
9.5 Lasting Appeal
There's a ton to keep you coming back to the Story levels, but the user-created content will give LBP life for a long, long, long time.
9.5
Incredible OVERALL
(out of 10 / not an average)

TGS08 - More White Knight Chronicles Details
More specific details about White Knight Chronicles: Wave of the Ancient have emerged out of the 2008 Tokyo Game Show. White Knight Chronicles is a medieval RPG being published by Sony and developed by Level 5 exclusively for the PlayStation 3.
White Knight Chronicles begins in the kingdom of Balandor, where the player's main character, Leonard, is attending a princess's coming-of-age banquet. When this banquet is raided by an evil corporation called "Wizard," Leonard grabs the princess and leads her to safety into the castle cellars. Down in these cellars, Leonard finds a suit of armor which can transform him into the White Knight, a powerful ancient warrior. Leonard, the princess, and their other companions will use the White Knight's power, along with their other strengths, to take on the forces of Wizard throughout the game.
The player will be able to name and customize his or her own combos in White Knight Chronicles, and in a traditional manner the player will need to build up a gauge to transform into the White Knight. As reported earlier here, White Knight Chronicles' single player adventure has been estimated to take around 100+ hours to complete, and the game will run at 1080p.
More details have also been revealed about White Knight Chronicles' online mode. Players will not be taking Leonard and the other single-player characters online, but will instead be creating their own online avatars. The player can customize his or her own avatar's looks and gender. The online mode will be an important tie-in to the single player adventure, rather than each being a separate gameplay component. The experience, items, and money gained in both the offline and online modes of White Knight Chronicles will be shared between each other. In order to keep the game balanced, the online quests and areas available will be determined by progress in the single-player mode. Additional online missions may become available as downloadable content after the game is released. The status of voice chat in White Knight Chronicles' online mode is still to be determined.
The White Knight Chronicles Japanese release date is set for December 25, 2008. North Americans will not be so lucky, as the game does not have any official release information for the states.

From Silent Hill 5 OST, Music by Akira Yamaoka
ONE MORE SOUL TO THE CALL / You can listen it here
Enough...
With the light...
Tell me one...
More time...
My blood...
Your line...
Is this you, inside?
Death... to the living...
The flame has no living heart.
In the order, of life, they know you there...
As you saw it, your plan, a real shot in the dark...
Came a little, too late, it's over...
Calling, the children...
Conception...
And dying...
Silent, but screaming!
Damage done to the flesh, what they said...
In the name of the...
Damage done to the heart, is the start, of the end!
Damage done to my soul, and you know, it knows where my...
Damage done to my life, may seem loud, as the chaos!
You're here, you're gone...
It's not fair, I'm lost...
Your god, your fear...
Was it worth...
The price?
Pray. For the children!
You lost along the way.
Still remember, the names, and faces...
Cold. And abandoned.
They cry, their fate put in your hands.
When it's over, they come to haunt you...
Wasted... Confusion...
Deadly... Illusion...
Nightmare... Intrusion!
One more soul to the call, for all...
In silence...
Comes two more souls to the call, for all...
And in time...
Three more more souls to the call, they bond...*
Unknowing that four more souls to the call, won't be all, and you know it!
Sacrifice...
Wasted life...
Death in me...
Redefines...
Someone, chooses you...
Lucky one, close your eyes, your family knows you're here!
Calling, the children...
Conception...
And dying...
Silent, but screaming!
Damage done to the flesh, what they said...
In the name of the...
Damage done to the heart, is the start, of the end!
Damage done to my soul, and you know, it knows where my...
Damage done to my life, may seem loud, as the chaos!
One more soul to the call, for all...
In silence...
Comes two more souls to the call, for all...
And in time...
Three more more souls to the call, they bond...*
