Disc-based PC sales made up only 4 percent of the total.

Little Big Planet 2 Review
Little Big Planet 2 (LBP2) is a 3D side-scroller where you play as Sackboy, set in the world on Craftworld, which has been invaded by the evil Negativitron, and your job is, of course, to save the world. There are 30 single player levels, and they’re not just tiny maps — they’re fully fledged worlds, most of them with genuinely unique settings, where you can never predict what level is coming up next. However, the levels are somewhat easy, and you should be able to complete them in half a dozen hours. However, there’s plenty of replay value, with awards, starts, unlocks and trophies. Of course, once again, there’s four player co-op, which is just as streamlined as in the first game. And more importantly, just as fun.
But the best part of LBP2 is its in-game creation tool. It’s one of the most extensive ever made in a game, and doesn’t just let you make new levels, it lets you create entire new games. Like a fighting game, for instance. Or pool. Anything really, and there are plenty of tutorials to get you started. And you can share your creations with the community, which is already growing large thanks to the popularity of the first game. And of all those millions of levels uploaded in the first game, you can play those in the sequel.
Visually, the game looks gorgeous just like before, and soundtrack is just as awesome. The game feels polished, although we experienced some nasty load times from time to time, especially when accessing some of the online features. But in all, Little Big Planet 2 is a must have for any PS3 owner, especially if they were into the first game. Just like Super Mario Galaxy 2, Little Big Planet 2 is a worthy sequel that takes everything to a new level.
The Good:
Great levels with lots of variety
Great gameplay
Level editor/game creator is awesome
Nice soundtrack
The Bad:
Occasional long loading times
Fairly short single player campaign
Overall score: 9/10

Bioshock novel coming soon
BioShock: Rapture, a new novel that tells the tragic tale of Andrew Ryan's maddeningly ambitious yet ultimately doomed vision for an underwater utopian metropolis, has unexpectedly surfaced over at Amazon. If the listing is accurate, the book will be available on March 1, 2011.
The first scant details about John Shirley’s text-based BioShock prequel released last May. At the time, it was expected that the book would come out sometime around the release of BioShock 2, but obviously that didn’t happen. Irrational Games’ creative director Ken Levine was previously the only writer associated with the novel, but, as Big Download reports, Levine’s input was limited to an introductory chapter. I guess Levine was too "busy" working on BioShock Infinite to write an entire novel. Slacker.
BioShock is my favorite game universe of all time, and to have a chance to see the founding and fall of Rapture (since BioShock 2 sadly missed out on letting players play through it firsthand) from over the shoulder of Andrew Ryan is something I can’t wait to experience.
BioShock: Rapture will be available in hardcover for $18.47, paperback for $10.19, and on the Kindle for $9.99.

Nintendo 3DS(Nintendo):New Demonstration
Can not wait to get my hands on one of these babies,dont forget to stay tuned for the european reveal in Amsterdam on the 19th of this month,the video above is showing how the 3DS uses its augmented reality to capture its users image to create a Mii,how cool is that!
3DS leaks out of china
Of all the ways Nintendo wanted to start of 2011, having their highly-anticipated handheld leak out of a production plant in China wasn't likely one of them. The above photo was taken by an mysterious source out of China with access to an early version of the Nintendo 3DS. Clearly the photo wasn't taken on the production line, either, as the leaker had plenty of time to arrange Yoshi next to his shot. Oh, and there are six more shots of the device, many of which feature other Nintendo handhelds so you can see how the 3DS compares, size-wise.
In terms of leaks, it's a doozie. Not iPhone 4 leak big, given that we've already seen the 3DS and knew about what it was going to look like, but still, this is not how Nintendo wanted to debut the final look of the handheld. After all, the company has a 3DS event in just a couple weeks, where the final hardware and most of the launch games are likely to be playable.
If you prefer your pictures moving, the guy who swiped the 3DS has uploaded a video showing off the device and comparing it to the other handhelds.
Interesting to see that the 3DS is just slightly thicker than the DSi (even without its back plate) but a smidge shorter, length-wise, despite the new, widescreen top screen.
The 3DS that was taken is basically inactive, so the leaker can't run any games or even open up the system profile screen. Thankfully we won't have to wait to see the final version of the device in action, though. Basically everything about the 3DS launch will be revealed on January 19, so stay tuned.
