Sack it to Me: Sackboy Returns to Tron

Tron: Legacy Minipack Released!

There’s a fun new Minipack on the Store, which includes the long sought-after Clu Costume. Originally a pre-order bonus for LittleBigPlanet 2, Clu is now available to everyone on LittleBigPlanet in the Tron: Legacy Minipack!

Clu is joined by Quorra and Gem in this Minipack and there’s also a collection of Tron: Legacy themed Stickers to add to your collection.

LBP.me Gets Some New Features!

Recently we rolled out a new update for LBP.me, which introduces a couple of exciting new features to our ever-expanding hub for the community.

Sackboy Gets Sorted with Lists!
The first of these is our new Lists feature, which enables a creator to compile a list of up to forty levels entirely of their choosing. If you consider yourself to be a super organised Sackperson, who likes to keep all their levels all nice and sorted, then the new level lists will be right up your street!

Take a look at my very first list featuring last week’s Mm Picks to see just what I’m talking about!

Oh and be sure to keep an eye out from future lists from me, which will showcase some of the greatest levels on LittleBigPlanet!

Sackboy Shows Off His Pins!
The other big update on LBP.me is the ability to see everyone’s hard-earned Pins. Finally you can show your Pins with pride and let the community know how much of a dedicated player you are and what your top skills are.

So good luck with completing those Pin collections!

For more information on the new features, head on over to LittleBigPlanet.com.

If you want to show off your brand new Lists or your Pin collection, drop a message into the comments. I’ll love to see what kind of cool lists that are being put together by the community!

LittleBigPlanet E3 Goodies!

Sackboy had a very exciting time at E3 and we’ve got a couple of new trailers to show you, fresh from his trip to E3!

To begin with we have the lovely new videos of our exciting new games to show off to you all!

If you’re excited for Sackboy’s new portable or karting adventures, then you will definitely want to check out these new vids!

Play, Create, Share has never looked brighter for LittleBigPlanet and we cannot wait to get these great games to you, later this year!

Mm Picks

Finally this week, I’m no stranger to level lists since we have our usual batch of Mm Picks that feature some of our favorite levels.

Can’t wait to play LBP Karting and LBP Vita :D would like to see more themed levels like the Muppets had

  Each game will be packed full of new themes and LittleBigPlanet Karting will also see the return of some old favourites!
  
  Are there any particular themes or styles you’re hoping to see in LittleBigPlanet Karting or LittleBigPlanet PS Vita?

So upset that I signed up for the LBP Vita Beta, and didn’t get in!! Huge slap in the face to someone that has bought every Little Big Planet game Day 1! Whoever thought it was smart for a “robot” to give out the codes should be fired!! I am a loyal LBP player, and I know people that don’t own a Vita and got the code! Shame on Sony and Tarsier Studios who did a piss poor job handing out these Beta code. Oh BTW I am also a Plus Member!! What happened to Free Exclusive Betas?!?!?!

Are we going to be able to use our LBP and LBP2 DLC costume bits in Little Big Planet Karting?
Hooligantuan

Dude, I know Beta entry is a frustrating thing, but you’re taking it entirely too personally if you would color it as a huge slap in the face.

Get a grip, man. It’s just a game.

i must say , im extremely impressed by lbp vita beta, its just like the ps3 versions, even the graphics are very, very good, i have a question when is it coming out? august?
- Steven Isbell

  We haven’t announced a release date just yet.
  As soon as we know, you can be sure that we will tell you all!

Will LBP Karting be available on PSN or not? Day 1? Also luvin the LBP Vita Beta. Day 1 digital purchase!
DZORMAGEN

@ 5Hooligantuan

When you are loyal to a game and company it just seems like they don’t care. i know it is just a game, but this is a blog for games so I am just letting them know my frustration. It’s not the end of the world I know, but this is the reason for blogs, and message broads. To get the word out! Hopefully someone out there cares enough to change it, and have more Beta for NA!

  Sorry to hear that you didn’t get into the LittleBigPlanet PS Vita.
  
  There were a variety of people invited including new and dedicated LittleBigPlanet players, which would allow us to have both beginners and experts testing the game to help us ensure that it appeals to all players!
  
  Unfortunately space is limited with these tests and there isn’t always space for everybody.
  We even pulled down our sign-up page early to ensure that the most dedicated and earliest sign-ups would have a greater chance of being selected.
  
  Hope you’ve been enjoying all the recent news coming from the beta though! :)
MakoSOLIDER

I’m sure if Plus actually did anything on Vita then u’d be in. They still need to get Plus on there
MakoSOLIDER
June 18, 2012 at 9:46 am PDT

Also this wasn’t available in the Beta but will we be able to play community levels from LBP1 and LBP2 with the exception of PS Move lvls?
- Steven Isbell
  June 18, 2012 at 9:53 am PDT
  
  LittleBigPlanet PS Vita is an entirely standalone game that will not feature the LBP1 and LBP2 community levels.
  
  We’re definitely looking forward to seeing a whole new range of games being created on LittleBigPlanet PS Vita, which make great use of the PlayStation Vita’s exclusive touch capabilities!

@DZORMAGEN There’s millions of people that play LBP, its really hard for them to tend to millions of people, and only a few hundred, maybe a few thousand people can take part of the Beta, don’t take it too personally, I’m sure they care for everyone that plays their game
DZORMAGEN
June 18, 2012 at 9:57 am PDT

@ 11 Ace2540

Yes, but how many of those millions have a Vita also?? I know a lot of people just went on the site and lied about having the system. I am just saying it was done poorly and it could of been done different.

I got a chance to play the Beta from a friend, and at E3 and the game is AMAZING!

Absolutely love the new Tron Legacy pack! Any chance that there will be a level pack themed after Tron?Tron Legacy? I’m sure that many LBP fans would love that.

I can’t believe I wake up everyday excited to “maybe” have a release date for a game, and then still have to wait for it come out.
Ace2540
June 18, 2012 at 10:24 am PDT

@DZORMAGEN yeah, maybe they should’ve had the Beta registration only through the Vita to make sure that the codes are at least going to people who can actually use them

Everytime you post LBP Update, I get all excited thinking the Vita cross-controller DLC is coming out!
Any word on it’s release date?
- Steven Isbell
  June 19, 2012 at 1:55 am PDT
  
  The Cross Controller DLC isn’t due for a little while yet.
  Our reveal of the pack at E3 was the sneakiest of peeks that we could offer everyone. ;)
  
  We have a great line up of content to release before then though and we cannot wait to reveal more on the Cross Controller DLC, it’s definitely an exciting pack that will appeal to all.

Twisted Metal Theme!!! Imagine the possibilities! For both Karting and LBP Vita! Sweet Tooth Sackboy!

June 18, 2012 at 12:11 pm PDT

I’m with Wario64, Tron: Legacy themed Daft Punk outfits would be amazing! Any inclusions of Tron or Tron: Legacy themed stages would also be an amazing addition. The visuals in the films and the new cartoon are so awesome, seeing that translated to LBP would be a real treat.

When will the astronaut costume be available for everyone?
- Steven Isbell
  June 19, 2012 at 4:21 am PDT
  
  The Launch Spacesuit will actually be re-released twice this year!
  
  One week to celebrate the release of LittleBigPlanet PS Vita and another week for the release of LittleBigPlanet Karting!
  
  Keep your eyes peeled for the announcements of those release dates to know when to look out for these popular costumes.

Hey, I like pins. The day LPBVita is released is the day I buy a Vita (Unless by some happy accident I am able to win one).
- Steven Isbell

  We all love Pins here and you will be glad to know that LittleBigPlanet PS Vita will bring a brand new batch of Pins for you to collect!

Hey Steven, any chance you can confirm that there is going to be a Fallout/Nuclear Wasteland theme for Vita? I figure that by now LittleBigPlanet would have one :D

June 18, 2012 at 9:40 pm PDT

If you’re still answering questions, how long is the Beta expected to run? I’ve had limited time on it but definitely want to spend a metric-ton more when I can so I’m hoping the Beta runs for a long time. Any news at all would be good, thanks.

  The LittleBigPlanet PS Vita beta is due to end on June 25th.
  So you’ve got one more weekend to crank out some awesome creativity before the beta ends!

  LBP.me will offer full support for both LittleBigPlanet PS Vita and LittleBigPlanet Karting.
  It will be your one stop for levels, creators and community activity for LittleBigPlanet!

i am so at a loss i signed up for the beta day 1 only hours after the sign up page was launched i was one of the first at least first 20 i told them that i have played and owned every LBP and i dont get a betta key im talking to friends that signed up like a week later and they got in in but not me im so disappointed and really kinda angry i dont think thats fair at all ……if anyone knows how i might be able to get a betta key send me a mssg on psn… i even pre orderd day 1 but i kinda feel cheated i know its free and all but come on how do they skip over 1 of the first to sign up

i really think that what dzormagen is saying is right this beta was handled very poorly i think they should extend it we saw starhawk beta get extended because of problems and ghost recon as well and im sure there were more times where people saw things were done wrong or not as well as they could have been and so they tried to make up for it why cant we do that with lbp vita beta and just extend it a little longer so they can get me and dzormagen and other big fans/supporters in this beta even if its only for a week or 2 im a stay at home dad i could do so much in that beta in a short time …I STILL WANT IN…. ok i think im gonna go cry now…LOL…Sob.

I’m so excited getting this game! I bought LBP on the PSP, but I had problems on making levels on it. With PS Vita, I’m pretty sure that it would work out fine just like or better than the PS3 version because of its touch, gyro and camera capabilities that you can bring on the go. :)

June 24, 2012 at 10:25 am PDT

I’m just curious, will LittleBigPlanet for the Vita feature multi-player? I enjoy playing LBP with friends, and I was just curious. By the way, is the Pod still in the game?

I payed for the Tron:Legacy Minipack but it didn’t include the Clu Costume. I bought the pack mainly for the Clu costume could you tell me how I can get it?

July 15, 2012 at 3:28 pm PDT

sad to see a rare item like the clu costume become available to everyone. takes away from the fun of owning those few things that not many other people have.
