For weeks now, Sackfolk have been voting on their favorite levels to win one of the prestigious Sackies, awards that celebrate the highest level of achievement amongst players, creators and sharers on LittleBigPlanet.
The votes are now in, we’ve counted them up and we’re now ready to announce the winners…
But wait, that’s not all of them! There are a few more special winners of awards that were chosen by us, so head on over to LittleBigPlanet.com to see all the winners of The Sackies 2011. A huge congratulations to all the winners and nominees!
The LittleBigPlanet franchise now has over 6 USER-GENERATED MILLION GAMES & LEVELS!!!
Something magical recently happened in the world of LittleBigPlanet – thanks to our awesome community, the LBP franchise now has more than 6 million user-generated games and levels that have been created by fans and uploaded online to the PlayStation Network! As always, we’d like to extend a HUGE thank you to everyone contributing, whether you’re creating, sharing, or just playing. Here are a few nuggets we found over the weekend (see above video).

First off, welcome to the 400,000+ new LittleBigPlanet fans we’ve gained since Black Friday (for some of you, expect a big surprise from Santa in a few weeks)
We hope you all saw Disney’s The Muppets Movie! We loved it so much we wanted you to continue with your own Muppets adventure with our new costumes, newly available on the PS Store refresh. Check these out!

Happy third birthday, LittleBigPodcast! Three years ago, our friends Daniel and Austin started a small podcast dedicated to LittleBigPlanet. And now, 146 episodes later, The LittleBigPodcast has a special birthday episode, and a special “Sack-it-to-me” video just for us…
This weekend, be sure to play the lastest “Mm picks” chosen by Media Molecule themselves..
Be sure to support LittleBigPlanet 2 in this season’s GAME OF THE YEAR nominations (but only if you think we deserve it…)

We’re pleased to bring to you a new costume from our friends over at Oddworld Inhabitants. With the PlayStation Store update later today, you can dress your Sackboy up as the crossbow-wielding, poncho-sporting bounty hunter with a deadly secret (and deadly breath). Introducing the Stranger…

Hope you guys had a great Halloween! We did, and this week’s recap is proof of it.
Just in time for the November 15th release of Assassin’s Creed Revelations, our friends at Ubisoft helped us make a new Ezio costume for Sackboy. Look for it on the PlayStation Store on 11/15. Here’s a little post-Halloween treat – an early preview and some free Wallpaper downloads on us.
Now that UNCHARTED 3 is out, everyone is in the fortune hunting mood. Why not outfit your Sackboy like Nathan Drake with this week’s latest costume? Available now on the PS Store. And here’s another treat – epic UNCHARTED 3 wallpapers!
Over the next few months, Sackboy has plans to keep you busy with tons of activity including new friends, new costumes, and new ways to get started with LittleBigPlanet…
If you’re reading this, we know all/most of you already have LittleBigPlanet 2, but for those of you who don’t, or if you have friends who don’t, this is the perfect time to get your hands on the latest Sackboy adventure. Not just because it’s been one of the most popular games on PS3 in 2011, but because it includes tons and tons of bonus content.

There have been high levels of LittleBigPlanet activity on the interwebs lately, so here’s a quick link-o-rama to get your LBP fix…
LittleBigPlanet for the PS Vita was recently on stage at the EB Games Expo in Australia with a full on walk through of a “Vita-fied” level filled with front touch, tilt, rear touch, and of course, trademark Sackboy frolicking… If you haven’t seen LBP for PS Vita in motion, check it out here.
