HADOUKEN! When you’re taking a break from playing your newly downloaded Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix (available now on the PlayStation Network) — imagine venturing around LittleBigPlanet dressed as some of the greatest and most iconic characters in fighting. Beginning this Thursday, CAPCOM’s Street Fighter, one of the world’s greatest pop culture phenomenons, teams up with LittleBigPlanet to bring you brand new Street Fighter costumes made especially for your Sackboys and Sackgirls.

Now is your chance to be geared up and ready to go toe-to-toe with anyone who stands in your way with Ryu, Chun-Li, Guile and Zangief costumes that will be available at the PlayStation Store.

errm can’t edit..meant to say, why should costumes alter gameplay. That’s just ridiculous to think they should fracture users like that. How can it be a rip-off it it’s not a mandatory purchase?

Most of you are complaining simply because you do not want to spend money.

Money1  |  December 8th, 2008 at 9:19 pm

think i’ll make a street fighter themed level, maybe one based on the anime….ken akuma and bison would have certainly help but i can def make a decent level for either one of these characters

56

erico316  |  December 8th, 2008 at 9:22 pm

Looks like Capcom is in the house!

DudeFX  |  December 8th, 2008 at 9:26 pm

They do look awesome and I agree, don’t like don’t buy. Still though constructive feedback is always welcomed by Sony bloggers here, and they like to know what people think or want. I’d like to see more bundles at a greater discount than the usual buy X get one free deal. Just a suggestion lol

59

erico316  |  December 8th, 2008 at 9:30 pm

i see john on the blog site do i dare to ask will we get a street fighter level in lil big planet?and what about taking it farer with the cross game thing add a sack boy ryu in a street fighter game!!!!!!!!!! what do you say john do you like those ideas?

60

SuperDuckWC  |  December 8th, 2008 at 9:35 pm

too much expensive for me…. good characters but sorry, not for me :(

61

kspraydad  |  December 8th, 2008 at 9:35 pm

Not my game so I won’t be buying them but it IS good to see SONY bringing in 3rd party DLC to this franchise.

Now some 3rd party LEVELS would be interesting.

And yes…these are VANITY purchases…you can’t choose not to buy them but complaining about the price is mainly from those that like to complain anyway. If you LOVE SF you’ll part with your $1.99 I’m sure.

62

kspraydad  |  December 8th, 2008 at 9:36 pm

above can’t = can

63

Federation  |  December 8th, 2008 at 9:36 pm

Can we get a KillZone costumes???

64

JohnnyMoses  |  December 8th, 2008 at 9:50 pm

$6? It’s not as simple as “don’t like it, don’t buy it”.

I personally love these add ons. But, this nickel and dime DLC is making developers think it’s okay to release incomplete games. It’s not right.

I love LBP. So, I’m probably ranting in the wrong post.

65

momba0014  |  December 8th, 2008 at 10:06 pm

day 1 buy for me……john please tell me theres more capcom LBP DLC…please!

66

Sakimori_X  |  December 8th, 2008 at 10:11 pm

@63: I don’t get your point? This has nothing to do with nickel-and-diming players for DLC that should’ve been in the game in the first place. You can’t expect to have 3rd party character costumes for every conceivable IP in existance on the disc at release time. That’s just plain unreasonable.

Personally, I have only 3 words regarding this particular announcement by Capcom: TOO … MUCH … WIN !!!

67

Sakimori_X  |  December 8th, 2008 at 10:14 pm

Question for the Capcom folks: What do the Guile costume’s nametags say? I just realized there’s text on them, but I can’t quite make it out.

68

jqtaxpayer  |  December 8th, 2008 at 10:16 pm

Who says that the market doesn’t have the right to complain when companies set prices above what is reasonable? I think the people with this economic slave mentality are the ones that need to “STFU” as some have so eloquently put it.

69

JohnnyMoses  |  December 8th, 2008 at 11:27 pm

agreed with jq.

Sakimori- I said in my post it was the wrong blog to rant in. Also, 64, not 63. Although I’m sure you find it hard to remember post numbers while you’re counting your pennies for these costumes. Suckafish!

70

XxBigP123xX  |  December 8th, 2008 at 11:28 pm

I was right John…lol.

Day 1 purchase for me! I love this “lil” surprise!

Day 1 for DLC for a game you don’t have :P

71

zookey  |  December 8th, 2008 at 11:56 pm

Deifinite Win!

rbanke  |  December 8th, 2008 at 11:57 pm

—————————————
Those all look awesome.

Really? $5.99? That is 10% of what I paid for the game. These great costume packs need to come with new stickers, textures and/or other in game items, then I would gladly give you my $5.99.

I will have to think about it the way it stands.
—————————————-

THIS.

I love the game, i REALLY want to support you guys, but the pricing is just rediculous on some of this stuff. 10% OF THE GAMES COST. for 4 costumes. Please try to add some more value to these costume packs. As mentioned, stickers, objects would both at least give us something we can use to create. and would also ad to the value of these costumes.

73

L  |  December 9th, 2008 at 12:52 am

You can make Ken by yourself! Use Ryu’s clothes and color it red and use different hair. I would have liked to see Blanka or Bison though. I also want Sephiroth, Snake and Helghast!!! :)

74

Dark_Vincent  |  December 9th, 2008 at 1:23 am

It looks awesome, but damn 6 dollars? >.<

75

pedr0boy  |  December 9th, 2008 at 1:52 am

Im getting these costumes. :) I hope they make devil may cry costumes too. I want my dante, virgil, trish and lady sackpersons.

76

Conrad Max  |  December 9th, 2008 at 2:00 am

Nice costumes. Maybe Rsident Evil costumes for next Halloween?

77

BigRon3400  |  December 9th, 2008 at 3:30 am

I love LBP and I love street fighter. But 6 bucks is too much even for me.

78

lifeRPGs  |  December 9th, 2008 at 3:45 am

That is just totally awesome. I thought i would never buy any LBP costume, but being a massive SF fan, i simply cannot resist. Keep up the great work CAPCOM, we love you.

But CAPCOM, Onimusha are my favorite of all game series. I’m still waiting Onimusha 5…so please don’t let that exceptional franchise die!!

79

lifeRPGs  |  December 9th, 2008 at 3:52 am

*BRING ON THE EDIT ALREADY!*

Just a thought i had earlier today whilst on Home. For SFIV launch on PS3, would it be possible for you to open a SF Game Area, with some real SF characters ? I remember watching a video in which i saw Chun Li in Home..That would be great advertising.

80

DryvBy  |  December 9th, 2008 at 3:57 am

I was excited until I saw the price. John, you just revealed us our version Xbox 360 Marketplace “Horse Armor”…

81

lifeRPGs  |  December 9th, 2008 at 3:59 am

*OMG EDIT NUMBER 2*

I took the time to read the last sentence again, and

“Oh, and that’s not all for this week in costumes. Check back here again on Wednesday to see what else we have “IN-STORE” for you.”

IN-STORE? CAPCOM PLAYSTATION STORE OPENING THIS THURSDAY O_O

82

LeoMindfreak08  |  December 9th, 2008 at 4:17 am

wow!… I love it !

83

LeoMindfreak08  |  December 9th, 2008 at 4:18 am

I still waiting for a Star Wars Customes :(

84

hijaker77  |  December 9th, 2008 at 4:27 am

I ain’t paying for NO MORE costumes. This is ridiculous!

85

hijaker77  |  December 9th, 2008 at 4:30 am

Whats next? A barbie costume for $20…?

86

TouchyEd  |  December 9th, 2008 at 5:15 am

The prices are ludicrous, especially considering that costumes provide so little value in terms of gameplay. At 50 cents, or even 99 cents, I could see myself buying the occasional costume. But at $1.99, there’s just no way I’d purchase anything (unless they made a spot-on “TouchyEd” costume…and even then I’d probably pass).

87

TouchyEd  |  December 9th, 2008 at 5:17 am

#80:

GREAT IDEA!

They should make an LBP costume that resembles horse armour (and blast their pricing structure straight into Oblivion!)

88

toombzie  |  December 9th, 2008 at 5:20 am

wow $6 for 4 costumes? you guys do realize we are in a recession right? shouldn’t it be enough that we forked over hundreds of dollars to buy the overpriced system that sony steadfastly refuses to give a price break on? you know, the system that is lacking in quality titles compared to the competition?

89

PizzaDancer  |  December 9th, 2008 at 5:31 am

This is priced way too high. At $.99 I would gladly buy, but no way in hell for 2$. Every dollar counts and anyone saying “If you don’t like the price then don’t buy” doesn’t understand that. 10% of the game’s overall price is not worth 4 costumes.

Good job on the costumes though. They look great! When you lower costumes to .99, I’ll gladly buy them.

90

Daver  |  December 9th, 2008 at 5:48 am

I tought we would be able to get our hands on a real Sackboy plush before christmas, i guess not. Will they be available one day? (not the one from play asia that looks weird and are too small)
By the way at that price for costumes, you are loosing a lot of costumers and when you will decide to drop the prices its gonna be too late because people wont play it as much, thats what i thought

91

Enforcer_X  |  December 9th, 2008 at 5:53 am

Love em!
Getting them because I am a PSN Store Whore!

Would really love the ability to create costumes though … beyond placing stickers and objects Sackboy.

Regarding Sackboy plush dolls, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DON’T BRING THOSE SPAWNS OF SATAN FROM JAPAN HERE. THOSE HAVE TO BE THE UGLIEST SACKBOYS I HAVE EVER SEEN. Seriously look around the web at what people have done. PLEASE MAKE A NICER LOOKER ONE!

92

Enforcer_X  |  December 9th, 2008 at 6:02 am

@88 toombzie
I’m not in a recession!
Hey you want to sell your PS3 to me?
I could use a third one.

I mean obviously your not enjoying it.
By chance do you have a 60GB?

I can’t believe you call the PS3 overpriced.
Compared to what? Show me a system even close to offering the level of value?

Seriously though if you have a PS3 with PS2 backward compatability I will purchase it from you!

93

rAdIOhEaD73  |  December 9th, 2008 at 6:11 am

You have my money MM I am buying them all!!!!

typikal82  |  December 9th, 2008 at 6:20 am

Time to recreate Kens USA stage

StalkingSilence  |  December 9th, 2008 at 6:25 am

I want the chick with the bra on her head. ;)

96

SpiritThief  |  December 9th, 2008 at 6:51 am

Give us Blanka next, rawr!!!!

97

.Seiven.  |  December 9th, 2008 at 7:14 am

I just want to know…WHY NO KEN???

I would love to see Ken and Ryu in a sack slap fest…O well, definitely a great costume pack, and I would probably get it anyway because I am addicted to LBP DLC.

98

scorpio  |  December 9th, 2008 at 7:19 am

I’m all for d/l content and have bought some LBP costumes but i think this custome business is getting out of hand. I mean i don’t have to buy it and all but to sell 4 customes for 6 bucks is a little steap.

A customer IMO should never exceed .99 cents… just my two cents..

99

VofEscaflowne  |  December 9th, 2008 at 7:20 am

Can you tease us a bit more as to what other news we can expect on Wednesday? :p

But I’m still hoping for a bigger costume package than this. Mighty tempting this week though but I can’t help but feel we’re going to get a seasonal deal of some sort featuring all costumes release thus far for a discount announced the day after I cave in.

Scodo_Thope  |  December 9th, 2008 at 7:25 am

Cute but expensive.

Nickel and Dollar Ninety Nine Me!!
