Either that, or they're looking to create a full-fledged MMO. This evidence comes courtesy of a job listing at the franchise's official website; the position is for a Lead Community Manager and under the Requirements section, they ask for someone with "a strong knowledge and passion for games, ideally to include social gaming and MMO's." Despite LBP's family-oriented approach to entertainment, it has never really qualified for the "social gaming tag," so this is an interesting find. What might be in the works?

Media Molecule and the other studios involved in the creation of these titles are definite innovators. Maybe they're once again trying something very new and very progressive...only it involves the casual and the mainstream rather than the hardcore niche crowd. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
