LBP fans –
We’re one week out from the launch of LittleBigPlanet PSP and to celebrate SackBoy going portable, we’ll be teaming up with the Academy of Art University’s School of Game Design in San Francisco for a 24-hour LittleBigPlanet PSP Game Jam Session this Wednesday and Thursday. Similar to what we did with Parsons The New School for Design last year prior to the launch of LittleBigPlanet (PS3), students will demonstrate their keen artistic talents and create dueling game levels utilizing the easy-to-use creation tools of LittleBigPlanet PSP—but this time it will be all on the go! Each team of students will take their PSP through the streets of San Francisco looking at Bay Area architectural icons (buildings, historic landmarks, statues, bridges, etc.) for inspiration and ideas to incorporate into their level design. So, if you see our students running around the streets of San Fran tomorrow, be sure to say hello!
At the conclusion of the 24-hour period, each team’s game levels will be presented and judged by members of SCEA and Academy of Art faculty, as well as one of our LittleBigPlanet Game of the Year amateur level creators. The winning team will be announced the following day and will have their creations made available online once the game hit stores on November 17.
To get you even more fired up for LBP PSP, here’s another look at our Create trailer…

I hope they release a demo for it, just to make up my mind.

How big is LBP going to be if downloaded from PSN? Just wondering if I should be running out to pick up a larger memory stick in preparation for this game.

stop putting ps3 successors on the psp, the psp needs a new fresh ip that works well and makes the psp worth having something simple and fun

well my opinion is that sony is the best and playstation 3 is too.

The first time you did this, it sounded like an awesome idea. The levels that were seen looked amazing and we were all excited to play them. But then what happened? Yeah, those levels never made it to the public. Not that I remember, anyways. So, it’s great that you’re doing this again, but how about actually having these levels available for download when LBP PSP launches later in the month?

What an awesome promotion. Wish my school did something like that.

mrgorfaldo | November 10th, 2009 at 12:10 pm
Sweet! im excited for this game. do you think in the future you could make a DLC for multiplayer though?

Dice_for_Death_ | November 10th, 2009 at 12:27 pm
This is something my wife and I will enjoy. Between Dragon Age: Origins and LBP PS3, this’ll be something up both our alleys. Couples that play together, et al…

“stop putting ps3 successors on the psp, the psp needs a new fresh ip that works well and makes the psp worth having something simple and fun”
What makes you think LBP won’t do that on the PSP? Really dumb comment.

tetsou9shima | November 10th, 2009 at 2:05 pm
I for one think that LBP is perfect for psp. I have LBP for the ps3 and have a hard time finding time to really build a nice level. My psp I have with me all the time and I can’t wait to start building levels anywhere and everywhere (yep, in the bathroom too. what else are you going to do in there?)

Cool I work a block away from the Academy; maybe I’ll see students on the roam

tryser | November 10th, 2009 at 3:28 pm
hey sony, how do I preorder this game for psp go, I really want the bonuses but I can only find the option to preorder the UMD
Eric Levine replied on November 10, 2009 at 9:38 pm
The digital version will be available on November 17 when the game launches.

hectorhardy23 | November 10th, 2009 at 5:15 pm
please tell me when the LBP PSP demo is coming out so I can make up my mind on either LBP or AC Bloodlines.
Eric Levine replied on November 10, 2009 at 9:40 pm
There will be a demo, we’ll provide details on the blog when they are confirmed.

bLiNdSiDe82 | November 10th, 2009 at 6:07 pm
A demo would be nice. This holiday season is so crowded, a game is going to really have to stand out to warrant a purchase.

I haven’t played a Little Big Planet game yet so I’m really looking forward to this coming out! Thanks Sony Cambridge!

komicturtle | November 11th, 2009 at 6:37 pm
I pre-ordered the game, but would that apply for Digital Download? I’d like to have it downloaded rather carry UMD’s. My case is already filled with 4 (I have 6 games, 1 digital and the other is in my psp now).
Also, would it take alot of memory if I just downloaded the game. I have about 2000+ memory left on my 4 Gig., handful of videos and three demo’s.
Thanks :)
PS: I pre-ordered in Toys R Us and they had Gran Turismo for PSP in a case, but mentioned that it had a voucher, not a disk or something of that nature. Would like to get the official word on my two questions soon!

ohnomothra | November 11th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
wish something like this would go on at Savannah College of Art and Design, there’s no Sony love in our game development department :(

sithlordcody | November 11th, 2009 at 7:22 pm

arenas675 | November 15th, 2009 at 6:01 am
i agree with comment number 8
thats why the psp is falling behind in sales

Elvick_ | November 15th, 2009 at 7:39 am
Still annoyed that Sony once again gives Canada the shaft when it comes to preorder bonuses.
Importing from the United States is extremely expensive.
We already pay more for your games. Especially since our dollar is so close to the USD right now. So gives us the damn free stuff.

I can’t wait LBP is one of my favorite games ever.

fancycar57 | November 15th, 2009 at 4:01 pm
i am so excited cant wait! great job mm. ive always thought about lbp on the go. making levels where ever you go. one question. how would the hand motions and grabing work if there is only L and R, unlike the ps3 version, which has L1-2 and R1-2?
44
Polfin | November 16th, 2009 at 8:33 pm
i cannot wait just 30 min and we can create our own levels on the go, LBP PSP is going to be amazing always a fan of lbp

I’m really starting to question my 250 spent on my pspgo. I bought a 50 dollar card for a game and now have no idea when I can get it. Happy birthday ps3. Thanks for screwing me out of 300 dollars!

crscon | November 18th, 2009 at 10:24 am
An update as to when LBP will be available for download would be nice, way to shaft the people that purchased your newest PSP system. Isnt LBP one of the games that is supposed to bring the PSP back from the dead??
