In an open letter sent to both the game's distributor Sony, and to the game's developer Media Molecule, gamer 'Nsider' (on behalf of Arabic gaming site True-Gaming.com) asked for the immediate recall of copies of the upcoming (and highly anticipated ) game LittleBigPlanet. The reason behind the recall is of it's inclusions of select phrases from the Islamic holy book, the Qur'an.
These two lines, taken out of context, create a very dark picture and tone of the writings that all Muslims hold sacred.
