Review | LittleBigPlanet Vita review
Handmade, handheld.
It shouldn't make sense. What place does a game in which a chew toy jumps through shoebox dioramas filled with peeling wallpaper, worn rugs and offcuts from grandma's fabric drawer have on some of humankind's most technologically-advanced entertainment hardware?

It seems curious that a game hand-stitched in Guildford should have ended up the poster boy for Sony's corporate wonder-conjuring.

Feature | Lost Humanity 13: Top Hats and Candlesticks
Rab Florence wishes he saw the same innovation in video games that he sees in his cardboard children.
These days, I write about board games as much as I write about video games. In truth, I probably play board games more. But to me, a game is a game. And so I can't help but compare what's on offer in the board and card game world to what's on offer on the video game scene.
