Last week on the PlayStation
Blog, we announced the whole gamut of pre-order
items planned with our North American retailers. Today, we'd like to announce more details on two
of the items and the retailers supporting them.
(Just to clarify - you don't get all 5 items if you pre-order, just
one so choose wisely :P)
The official "LittleBigPlanet
Creator" miniguide @ Amazon.com
The
guys at Brady Games have been getting their hands on the game for quite a while (they're working on
the upcoming strategy guide - more details on this later). They're working with the folks at Amazon.com
to offer a digital miniguide as pre-order incentive. The miniguide will act as a primer to our
CREATORS out there looking for more hints and tips to master the 'tools of the
trade'. - Click here
to hit the Amazon's LBP page.
Exclusive in-game Kratos SackBoy
downloadable costume @ GameStop
OK,
there were lots of questions on the PS Blog about this one, so I wanted to breakdown
the above to clarify a few specifics. "Exclusive"
= this is the only place in North America
where you can get this exclusive costume.
Currently there are no near future
plans to distribute on the PS Store… "In-Game"
= this is not a physical object - but the render looked so good, it sold me on
that idea too. "Kratos SackBoy"
= Nuff' said. "Downloadable" =
Once you pre-order at GameStop, they'll give you a voucher w/ a promotional
code which you can redeem on the PlayStation Store for your free download at
LBP launch. Obviously you'll need a copy
of LBP to access the content, but I think you guys get all that. And finally, "Costume" = the Kratos
SackBoy costume actually consists of four different items (signature Kratos
skin, goatee, Blades of Athena (on back), and Kratos garments. So, once obtained you can interchange these
items with your normal costume inventory at anytime.
Both the retailers mentioned
above start their pre-order campaigns today so if you like what you see, check
out either Amazon or GameStop and pre-order now. If you’re still on hold for the other items,
stay tuned for more info on the Exclusive LittleBigPouch, LittleBigStickerBook
and Nariko SackGirl soon.
