LittleBigNewsSite Announcement!!!

Posted by Mark Valledor // Marketing Manager, SCEA

First off … thanks for the great comments on our first official LittleBigPlanet post on the blog. We love when the PlayStation community shows its passion for gaming and hope it carries over to LBP. We know you guys have a lot of questions … and over time (please be patient) we’ll get to answering them so you know everything about the game. “How” you ask?

Announcing the LittleBigPlanet NewsSite!

We’re very pleased to launch – what we hope to be – a key destination for anything LBP. We have lots of plans to keep you informed and active, before and after the game launches in October. We also want to take the time to thank all the fans sites out there dedicated to SackBoy and his ever-growing fanbase – you’ll be hearing from us soon …

See you there!

XxBigP123xX | August 8th, 2008 at 10:18 am

Awesome. Give me a beta no please :D

mcroddi | August 8th, 2008 at 10:20 am

This is good, I love LBP news – more to come I hope!

Will the website also support the game once it has come out?

ftown | August 8th, 2008 at 10:21 am

Nice website, I like the stickers!

Jaredu | August 8th, 2008 at 10:21 am

Great to hear guys, Keep up the amazing work!

iceman | August 8th, 2008 at 10:23 am

this is soooooo awesome cant wait 4 LBP!!!!!

joeymp | August 8th, 2008 at 10:25 am

This site is awesome, especially how you can customize it with stickers!

Now any details on the beta, Resistance 2 is coming a month after your game and Insomniac already spilled the details about their beta, and Socom is coming around the same time as your game and they just spilled the details about their beta. And now Home is expanding their beta their Home Open beta is due out until November!

Also what about a demo, for those unfortunate to get into the beta. it that still on track. Please tell me that we will get a demo a couple months before, like Motorstorm did. :)

maxerus | August 8th, 2008 at 10:26 am

OMG coolest thing ever!!

I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!

RandomEarthling | August 8th, 2008 at 10:26 am

Awesome site. Will the PlayStation blog still give updates or should LBP fans just head over to the news site?

Jeff Rubenstein replied on August 8, 2008 at 10:31 am

We’ll update you with the big announcements in conjunction with the LBP site. Sort of like with SOCOM.com – that’s your everyday place for that particular game.

EvoAnubis | August 8th, 2008 at 10:27 am

I know, Mark. I got the e-mail last night.

*chuckles* Man, I am so VERY hyped for this game. I just read on ps3fanboy that Sony thinks LBP will sell systems. They are correct; I’ve personally used videos of this game to sell 3 people (casual gamers at that) on getting PS3s.

This game is going to be amazing!

firehahahahahaha | August 8th, 2008 at 10:29 am

Site looks great, bookmarked and everything :D

maxerus | August 8th, 2008 at 10:31 am

WOW!! Now that ive really checked the site
it IS the coolest site EVER!!

The way you got the home page to play like the real LBP menu is AWESOME!!

joeymp | August 8th, 2008 at 10:33 am

you fixed the link! sorry for the double comments but for some reason they weren’t showing up, you can delete this comment too, but don’t delete comment #7 that’s my original and I want it there.

Jeff Rubenstein replied on August 8, 2008 at 10:38 am

it’s cool, thanks for the heads up, Joey.

Ghostm | August 8th, 2008 at 10:34 am

Saw it already since yesterday. You guys are a little late on the news.

bballuvrq | August 8th, 2008 at 10:34 am

Sweet… now I don’t have to search around many blogs, all the big news will be there!

BETA/Demo time…

(I hope!)

megget | August 8th, 2008 at 10:36 am

can u guys add an online sackboy creator the suspense is killing me I need more LittleBigPlanet. Please that would be really nice and i would be forever grateful

Fersis | August 8th, 2008 at 10:38 am

Ok, its already on my favourites of my browser:D

fredbob3 | August 8th, 2008 at 10:41 am

game looks awesome, can`t wait to play.
but whether u guys continue to support it after it`s launch or not (u know, more stickers, more vehicles, whatever) will make or break it for alot of ppl, including me. so will u

Noc Da Sniper | August 8th, 2008 at 10:44 am

LBP is gonna change the way games are made.. watch

Johnbot5k | August 8th, 2008 at 10:44 am

Hahaha – I love the “Mash-up”
What a fun way to blow off work! :p

DrBingogh | August 8th, 2008 at 10:45 am

Fantastic can’t wait to get my hands on this game. Rumors are running rampant that the only way to import pics is with the PS Eye? Any truth to that?

afchst | August 8th, 2008 at 10:47 am

I hope you announce Free sackboys for all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Zorgz | August 8th, 2008 at 10:47 am

Awesome :) Are you guys planning on releasing the Kratos sackboy as DLC? or is it exclusive for those who pre-order? =/ ( I will not be able to pre-order for particular reasons )

Bison | August 8th, 2008 at 10:47 am

So this game will be so enormous it’s got it’s own blog.

I like what I see.

Aaron | August 8th, 2008 at 10:48 am

Awesome will defiantly bookmark it! I dont know if this has been answered or not but will LBP have HOME support? And off-topic Jeff if I buy Qore Episode 1 can I still get into the SOCOM beta or is there a certain cut off date for that?

Thanks Jeff! :)

Zeo | August 8th, 2008 at 10:48 am

Great!
congratulations sony!
LBP gonna be ps3 exclusive or not?

thank you!

kristopher.w | August 8th, 2008 at 10:51 am

my excitement for this game simply cannot be contained. this will be the one of the finer exclusives to really make the PS3 standout from its competition and it is just the beginning.

Sony, I’ve been a life long fan of everything you have ever done for over 10 years. you make people like me proud to own a PS3 even in the earlier days when even the media wondered what good it was for. please keep up your current and on going successes…

LN_MEXWARRIOR | August 8th, 2008 at 10:53 am

Ok I’m a big fan of LBP and all I want to know is whether the game will have the OPTION for IN-GAME MUSIC? Please answer =[

LBP FTW!

StalkingSilence | August 8th, 2008 at 10:56 am

OK Jeff – you win. Scale it back. This is too much face-melting blog content for one 24-hour period. And that’s before we see today’s video store post.
I think I just wet my internet pants.

Kratosdog | August 8th, 2008 at 10:56 am

Make a sackboy plushie I will buy 10 I promise.

Brad1337 | August 8th, 2008 at 10:58 am

@28, I’m almost 100% sure that it will.

Nice website too, thanks a lot.

Zeo | August 8th, 2008 at 10:59 am

yes! sackboy owns!

joel | August 8th, 2008 at 11:00 am

Little big planet will be game of the year, its the best thing that has happened to gaming since mario, and thats a FACT!!

Kratosdog | August 8th, 2008 at 11:02 am

Hey zeo I can answer your question, LBP is exclusive to ps3, sony owns the rights to it.

Fantatier | August 8th, 2008 at 11:04 am

cool,
one quick question, will Europe be getting any cool preorder goodies?
*hope* :D

FritoZ | August 8th, 2008 at 11:05 am

nice, this just means everything is on schedule, and LBP will be out soon!

can’t wait for level creatin’ and uploading, and seeing what everyone thinks…

i think this game will finally be the one that really brings the PS universe together into a bigger and tighter community!

will there be a QandA section at that site, or should we still post our questions here?

thanks again!

Kratosdog | August 8th, 2008 at 11:05 am

Anyone smell that? I have an idea! Hey how about making like a mini LBP game for the psp??? And don’t forget those plushies! Make the plushies, MAKE THEM!!!!

erico316 | August 8th, 2008 at 11:05 am

so jeff im guessing u mean now the Saturday recap will include a lil big planet recap????

SupremeStephan | August 8th, 2008 at 11:06 am

Great website; I love the customise-option! :D

StalkingSilence | August 8th, 2008 at 11:09 am

My first question for the LittleBIGPlanet news site – what’s inside the zipper? Like, if I unzipped sackboy (not intended to sound dirty) – what would be inside. Probably asbestos, but it does warrant asking.

SDkngsht | August 8th, 2008 at 11:11 am

i’ll admit. i was curious about this game and my girlfriend was excited about it when the first trailer (skateboard trailer as i like to call it) came out.

but within the last month you guys have gotten me amped to play this game. even to create. i already know the first 3 levels i’m going to create.

then the Kratos sackboy with the frown?! oh it’s a wrap. i’m pre-ordering as soon as i know where i can get that or the Brady create guide.

Fersis | August 8th, 2008 at 11:12 am

@40 StalkingSilence
Its obvious what is inside of sackboys:
sugar,flowers,colours ,bunnys …
Obvious…

SDkngsht | August 8th, 2008 at 11:13 am

@#33

i’ve been thinking the same thing. i don’t think anything this big or original has come since that fat plumber. i mean there have been amazing games and leaps & bounds forward but i mean a completely radical idea of this proportion. this is crazy.
