On Thursday, 11/13/08 the PlayStation Store will have new items for our LBP fans.  As we introduced our ‘freebie’ costumes last week, our second week on the store introduces a variety of costumes - ranging from free to $2.99.

• Sack-Eating Plant (FREE)
• Lilly Pad ($.99)
• Hugo ($.99)
• Great Blue ($.99)
• Frost-E ($.99)
• Animals Costumes Pack ($2.99)

---------------------

This weeks FREE costume is the SCEE winner from our previously announced Costume Contest – congrats to the winner across the pond (and to you for getting to download it for free).  Stay tune as we'll announce the costume winners from North America and Japan in the new few weeks.

Our “Animals” line-up, introduces our SackBoy costumes with a ‘wildlife’ motif. 

 

Each of these “Animal” costumes can be purchased separately, or via value bundle.

Finally, our first Premium SackBoy Costume on the PS Store is an outfit from the exclusive PS3 title MotorStorm – Stormers UNITE!

Check back next week when we give you a sneak peek on what’s coming next for LittleBigPlanet on the PlayStation Store.

We’re sure most of you have seen some of the TV ads for LittleBigPlanet, especially since most of them have found its way on YouTube; including

Fun Shall Overcome

In case you’ve missed it, Mm also has all three of the European LBP TV spots available on their site / blog.  Each spot shows how every user-generated level has a story of its own, whether its a homage to an ex-girlfriend (Janice Planet), a celebration of Mullet Rock (Metal Mullet Planet), or just a tribute to one's family (Cullen Family).

Just a friendly reminder, both the Spacesuit SackBoy and Halloween Mask SackBoy costumes are available for FREE download exclusively on the PlayStation Store.  But don’t wait too long, these downloadable contents are only available from 11/6 to 11/19.  

In addition to the fan appreciation gifts mentioned above, be sure to check back soon to see who the winners were from LittleBigChallenge 003 (Costume Contest) and other LittleBigPlanet DLC updates.    

 

 

Please note the LittleBigPlanet online servers will be down for essential maintenance on Thursday November 6th between 12am and 9am PST. During this period the offline game will be unaffected as we work to improve online performance. So keep playing or creating and we'll have some shiny new servers ready for when we get back.

Welcome to the LittleBigWorkshop, your personal creative canvas to inspire ingenuity, creative synergy, or for those of you who are just curious.  

For the first time visitors, learn what LittleBigPlanet is all about by going to GAME to view the all the latest trailers, screenshots and game-info.  You can also download LBP Icons and Wallpapers designed and created by our fans within the community.  Feeling a little creative?  Visit the Blueprint Room to plan out your own LittleBigPlanet level with in-game shapes and architecture, then print it out and use it as a guide to build it in the game.  Be sure to also use the Sticker Room to make your own wallpaper or artwork by using in-game LBP assets to build and decorate.  

For the LBP community veterans, this is your home for all things PLAY, CREATE and SHARE.   We’re sure everyone has discovered by now, but we’ve dedicated a large portion of the site to help inspire, create and share your awesome handiwork.  Use the Workshop Room and Inspiration Room to motivate and educate your fellow LBP community by showing them how it’s done.   

Whether you are a first time visitor or a LBP veteran, PLAY WITH EVERYTHING, and tell us what you think!  We want the LittleBigWorkshop to be your own personal imaginative space, one that will inspire the creativity within the entire LBP community.  Stay tuned for future updates as the LittleBigWorkshop will constantly be evolving with new LittleBigChallenges, video trailers, screens, and all other great LBP content.

As always we welcome your thoughts, ideas, and comments so post away!

In preparation for European launch this week, the LittleBigPlanet servers will be temporarily down due to maintanance on Tuesday, 11/4 starting at 1:30am (PST).  We'll be sure to post here again once ther server is back up.  Our apologies for any inconvenience this maintenance will cause.
