Your PlayStation Election Results

Once again, we’d like to thank all of the PlayStation.Blog Halloween costume contest entrants. We received a total of 4,382 votes in a close race to determine the top three submissions. And the winners are…

First place with 29 percent of the vote:

Ross A.’s SackBoat! For the brilliant combination of SackBoy and kayak, SackBoat will receive a PLAYSTATION 3 80 GB system.

Second place with 26 percent of the vote:

Ding Dong’s Helghast! For breaking through the plethora of SackBoy submissions and winning over the PlayStation.Blog community, Helghast will receive a PSP-3000 system.

Finally, in what was an extremely close vote, third place with 17 percent of the vote goes to Ricardo G.’s SackCouple.
The adorable duo will receive PlayStation Network vouchers valued at $50.00 USD.

And because the fourth place entrant was just a mere 5 votes off, we’d like to give Daniel W.’s Hawaiian SackBoy PlayStation Network vouchers valued at $25.00 USD.
(While we love the Hawaiian shirt selection, we’re secretly hoping he uses the money to purchase a new SackBoy wardrobe.)

Congrats to all of the winners, and thanks again to all of you that voted! For the rest of you, you might wanna start planning next year’s costume…

So the Jeff costume didn’t even get an honorable mention. :-)

KaySackBoy deserved the win no doubt.

feedDUNK_All | November 10th, 2008 at 11:05 am

Good stuff, SackBoat, haha

lakaihigh | November 10th, 2008 at 11:05 am

congratulations guys! still think that Helghast trooper shoulda won though. perhaps when the LBP hype dies down a little bit another helghast costume will win next year seeing as how that title drops next year. but perhaps LBP will still be in full swing all the way through 09′. guess we shall see.

peace,
Lh

+1 bonus point for Sackboy piloting a vehicle with a palindrome name (kayak). We also would have accepted racecar.

Nice contest. I still liked the jeff one best… I mean, jeff works for Sony doesn’t he? and he’s definitely a character…. Shouldn’t that qualify as a Sony character? ;)
