Sack It to Me: “Back into the DLC Swing” Edition

Posted by Mark Valledor // Marketing Manager, SCEA

Greetings LBP friends. If you have been keeping up with the internets or our Blog you should know that SackBoy has been seen puttering around all over these days. Whether he’s in England winning awards for Media Molecule at the BAFTA or swinging clubs in other games, you’ll never know when you are going to see him next. Now we know its been all quiet on the DLC front lately, but since all good things come to those who wait, here are the details on where SackBoy is going to be next!

He’s at Kohls!

LBP Kohl's shirt

If you checked out last week’s post, you saw the black LBP shirt that is now sold out at Hot Topic except for the larger sizes. But fear not, as they re-stock there is another shirt available at your local Kohl’s if you want something on the lighter side. Hopefully more LBP gear to come!

On March 17th he visits IRELAND!

LittleBigPlanet Add-On St Patty's Day Costume

St. Patrick’s Day costume: FREE (available for one week only) If you want to avoid the “pinch” and get luck on you side, be sure to visit the store between March 17th to the 24th so you can celebrate St. Patty’s day LBP style.

On March 19th he invades HELGHAN!

LittleBigPlanet -Add-On Killzone Minipack banner

Killzone Mini-pack: $2.99
The ISA isn’t the only one invading Helghan! With both Sev and Helghast costumes along with 32 KZ-themed stickers this mini-pack brings the fight against the Helghast to LittleBigPlanet.


On March 26 he hits BUZZ!

LittleBigPlanet - Buzz Render

Buzz! Mini-Pack: $1.99
SackBoy is about the get Buzzed! as he sports the costume of PlayStation’s most famous game show host and we get cool stickers to Buzz-ify our levels.
Take that Trebeck!

On April 2, he marches on to PATAPON!

LittleBigPlanet - Patapon Axe Front

Patapon Costume: $1.99
As mentioned on the Pata-Post a few weeks ago, Pata-Fans can celebrate the approach of Patapon 2 (Patapon 2 tag) with this costume including a selection of weapon options.

On April 9, he returns to HEAVENLY SWORD!

LittleBigPlanet - Heavenly Sword Render

Heavenly Sword Mini-pack: $2.99
If you didn’t get Nariko the first time, now is your chance and Kai is coming along with her, not to mention 27 Heavenly Sword themed stickers too.

On April 16, SackBoy goes to CHINA

LittleBigPlanet - Monkeyking

Monkey King Costume: FREE (available permanently) This costume based on the Monkey King story is a winning design from our LBP community in Asia. Now we can all be winners with a free new costume!

Oooh more costumes, how exciting – not! lol The team has taken so many breaks this year, you would think a new level pack was forthcoming in the next few weeks. Yes I know MM has promised more of that in 2009 but so far no word and nothing to look forward to other than more promises of things to come.

102

SpyDudeFX  |  March 14th, 2009 at 3:31 am

Breaks, as in weeks are skipped without new DLC.

We seriously need an edit function here.

Carl-G  |  March 14th, 2009 at 5:03 am

I want a ‘LBP/KillZone 2 Level Pack’ like the LBP/MGS4 one :P That would be COOOOOOOL ;)

104

inveigle  |  March 14th, 2009 at 8:38 am

I like free stuff!

105

DynastesC  |  March 14th, 2009 at 9:17 am

Finally killzone 2.

106

Azira013  |  March 14th, 2009 at 10:21 am

So where are the Warhawk DLC? Eucadian and Chernovan costumes?

107

Ouren  |  March 14th, 2009 at 12:08 pm

Nice. Going to Kohls when I get a chance ^^

108

Whahoppen  |  March 14th, 2009 at 12:53 pm

I’m looking forward to these. :)

109

sunshine9323  |  March 14th, 2009 at 1:58 pm

I love LittleBigPlanet, however, I think that you should release the costumes of these content packs for free. I don’t want to pay more than dollar for a good costume. :^)

Heavenly_king  |  March 14th, 2009 at 6:59 pm

DEAR SONY, CAN YOU MAKE A KZ2 PACK LIKE THE ONE OF MGS4?? IF YES IT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!!

113

Heavenly_king  |  March 14th, 2009 at 7:01 pm

@111 (me lol) And I would gladly pay for it :D

114

jorge3433  |  March 14th, 2009 at 9:30 pm

I’m def getting the patapon costume.

115

Spyroluver88  |  March 14th, 2009 at 11:49 pm

Hi Mark,
I was wondering why you posted a link to Kohl’s if they don’t even have the shirt on there. I actually searched through 172 fricken pages of tshirts only to find that out.
Also I was wondering if anyone is going to make a GIRLS tshirt. I loathe wearing Men’s shirts. I know girls are the minority in the gaming world but we are still here and it would be nice if we could get shirts too.

116

Onna76_NL  |  March 15th, 2009 at 3:04 am

HONESTLY! Where the heck are those promised levels like with the MGS4 pack? That’s the only thing I’ve bought and the only thing you’ll ever get money from out of my pockets. I’ve finished the game including the MGS4 pack, you honestly don’t expect from me to buy silly costums only to fill your pockets? Neither do I!

117

mrdiamond666  |  March 15th, 2009 at 5:49 am

So when are we going to see some HOME LBP PARTNERSHIP? I know MM could do some amazing things to jump into the HOME GAME!!! I would love to see some HOME LBP AVATARS running around. And since RE5 is out will we see some DEAD UNDEAD LBP costumes and some graveyard type of stickers, and level pieces? I would love some MORE EVIL added to LBP, Come on, evil isn’t ment for just HALLOWEEN, BRING ON THE DEAD SACKBOYS AND SACKGIRLS, I WANNA EAT BRAINS!!!

118

glody  |  March 15th, 2009 at 11:53 am

I really think you guys would sell a TON more of these LBP costumes if they were priced at a significantly more competitive rate…of if they were downloaded for free. Sure alot of work went into modeling each of these characters…but what happens 10 years from now when everything we purchased for this game remains irrelevant? Its a waste of money and im realizing it now.

119

CPhotographer  |  March 15th, 2009 at 12:49 pm

I tried to find it at Kohls, and no Jones. So I poked around online, and there are a few “Create-your-own” clothing/apparel websites out there with some pretty nice user-created shirts on them.

120

bulimicitsgreat  |  March 15th, 2009 at 6:46 pm

I am really loving all the stuff you guys are making. I hope you guys just surprise us with resident evil costumes or level pack.

That would just be great.

121

rAdIOhEad73  |  March 16th, 2009 at 6:45 am

We need MM’s created levels, don’t get me wrong I love some of the community created stuff but I will buy more level packs like he metal gear one…

122

over_9000  |  March 16th, 2009 at 5:43 pm

i’m not really liking how MM is grouping stickers with costumes to sell more costumes…

More level packs are in order

keep up the good work ^-^

123

Schnacky  |  March 17th, 2009 at 10:35 am

none of these cloths are at my local Kohls.

124

Szarky  |  March 17th, 2009 at 12:56 pm

Online is still broken. What a joke. I tried playing last night after doing the update and when you join someones game in story mode it goes all weird fast-forward and then after a while it lets you join in. Online has been broken since launch. Man do I love this game though.

125

AZ929  |  March 18th, 2009 at 3:52 pm

that monkey king costume looks sick!!! does anyone know if in the heavenly sword pack if u can actually hold the sword?

126

In case you don’t plan on doing so, can you please post the High-Resolution images of the Helghast and Sev costumes that show off the front and side of the costumes. The ones posted a few weeks ago were just the in-game models, and don’t look good as the High-resolution images that show off the front and side of the costumes (like the Kai and Buzz images just posted on the LBP DLC Flickr page). Just to compare:

The High-Resolution model of Kai:

The in-game model of Kai:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/3309706821/sizes/o/in/set-72157610932967156/

I think the Killzone costumes are some of the best looking LBP DLC costumes so far, and it would be very disappointing if these two were some of the few costumes that didn’t have their high-resolution images posted (most of the other costumes do).

Wafi24  |  March 19th, 2009 at 10:11 pm

Cant wait to buy kz2 pack tommorrow

128

BPink  |  March 20th, 2009 at 12:14 am

Will we see an update to LBP to allow more saved costumes? With the addition of the two new costumes today, I’m at the limit. LBP tells me I can save no more. So, I’ve started deleting costumes that have a single object to make them a costume. I think that as we get more content we might need an update that allows us to save more. Just as suggestion. Thanks.

JesterBrain  |  March 22nd, 2009 at 1:34 pm

Can i download the “St. Patrick’s Day costume” in germany? It is not listed in the PS Store or the ingame DLC area.

130

Mikoid1  |  March 23rd, 2009 at 7:58 pm

COOL! Can’t wait for the monkey! He looks pretty cool.

131

csquared13  |  April 9th, 2009 at 10:34 am

i think that these costumes should be free because it just another way for them to get money away from us the gamers
