Interview With a Prolific LittleBigPlanet Content Creator 27
SlappingOysters writes "Ole-Marius Lakselv is going to be making games for a living, sooner or later. Under his PSN moniker of Geosautis, he has become arguably the most popular and famous LittleBigPlanet level maker in the world. His works, such as World of Colour and Haunted Mansion, are shining examples of what a talented user with a bit of time on his hands can build using LittleBigPlanet's powerful creation tools. Gameplayer has just interviewed him to get the full story on being an amateur developer making waves in LittleBigPlanet. The site has also awarded the game The Best Exclusive of 2008."

Yeah, whatever happened to Minh Le? [wikipedia.org] The guy creates the most popular Half-Life mod ever, which helped sell a LOT of copies of Half-Life and Half-Life 2 (people buying it for the Source version), and now appears to have vanished from the gaming scene.
I think that helps prove your point.

If you look at the wikipedia page you posted yourself, it mentions that Le was then hired by Valve. I think that helps out someone's point.
