Sack it to Me: Summer Games Outfits and Sackinima

Community Spotlight – Sackinima

Let’s start the week with another community spotlight. This time, we’re tipping our collective hats to the cool guys who run the Sackinima YouTube Channel.

Sackinima features an impressive collection of videos including machinima and community-level videos. With special permission, they even released some amazing gameplay videos from the recent LittleBigPlanet Vita beta, which showcased some of the amazing talent seen in the beta.

These guys have been producing great videos for so long and for that reason, we will be bestowing a Rare Prize Crown to each of them. Congratulations guys! Keep up with the great videos!

Mm Picks

We have a fresh batch of Mm Picks for you to feast on this week! Sackboy is in his element with three great platforming adventures that take us across Caverns, Ruins, and an abstract Wonderland. The mini-game fans amongst us will love the Tank Wars and Cling to Life games — they’ll really put your survival skills to the test!

Cling To Life 2.0 (Survival) by Nick930930

Summer Games Fan Wallpapers

Finally, we jump straight back to our perpetually energetic community!

The folks over at LittleBigLand have really gotten into the Summer Games spirit, by producing a set of wallpapers showcasing each of the events in the LittleBigPlanet Summer Games Costume Pack.

These guys love to make LittleBigPlanet wallpapers, and these are just their latest artistic offering. If you love fun wallpapers, be sure to head on over to their website to see what else they have to offer!

If your Sackboy hasn’t gotten off the couch and into the Summer Games spirit, perhaps it’s time you headed to the store to check out the Summer Games Costume Pack! This pack will be able to kit your Sackboy out with everything he needs for the Summer Games!

  If you have been lucky enough to be invited to the LittleBigPlanet Karting beta, you would have received an invitation via email to the email account that is associated with your PSN.

Any date by a retailer is just an estimate/guess until otherwise announced by Sony. Not sure if SCEE announced a date, since I don’t follow Europe dates since I live in NA, but somehow I doubt it.

Is gamestop speaking lies again about the release date being 12/31/12 or is this just their way of saying 2012 TBA.
I am very confused. I was really hoping a summer release so that I may spend the last days of summer playing lbp vita. please give us a SOLID release date, i beg of you for I no longer trust game stop and their lies, december 30th It’s preposterous i tell you, preposterous!
