What happens if you take a massive collection of Sackfolk, a lot of love for LittleBigPlanet and a team of eager photographers looking to take snapshots of the huge variety of Sackboys and Sackgirls that inhabit LittleBigPlanet?

You get the Epic Definitive Community Group Photo, that’s what!

If you’re in the group photo, why not play a game and see if you can find yourself? It was certainly the first thing I did when I saw the completed group photo!

This absolutely epic collection of Sackfolk from within the community was put together by Ostler5000, DaSackBoy and OmegaSlayer – so please give them and everyone else included in this amazing group photo, a big ol’ pat on the back for creating such a visual treat of Sackpeople.

This week’s Team Picks include a wonderful sound extravaganza in Sackboy’s latest adventure on LittleBigPlanet 2, a wooden platforming paradise in LittleBigPlanet PS Vita and Pookachoo brings us another 3D platforming experience in LittleBigPlanet Karting.

Last week we announced the first game add-on for LittleBigPlanet PS Vita; the Marvel Arcade Pack! This pack contains three brand new arcade levels, each challenging you in very different ways. This new pack comes with a ton of new create assets and even trophies so don’t miss out on this one!

LittleBigPlanet PS Vita: Team Picks

This week, we have two new LittleBigPlanet PS Vita: Team Picks. They’re both a couple of great levels that you should download today!

The first one is Another Flora by ZecoCOcoZza. If you wonder why silhouette levels are so popular, play this level. There are few silhouette levels on LittleBigPlanet PS Vita as good as Another Flora.

The title of the second TeamPick pretty much tells you all you need to know. You play as a flying purple monster and eat skydivers to earn points. Sounds quite simple, and it is, but it is also a lot of fun!

LittleBigPlanet 2: Mm Picks

Heading over to LittleBigPlanet 2, we have a great selection of new Mm Picks for you, which include a fantastic running and gunning arcade game, a new platform adventure that sees Sackboy clambering through lots and lots of pipes, and finally, we have a simply addictive balancing game that will truly test your patience.

GunRun sees you taken on the role of a gunner as he continually runs across the screen shooting at a constant barrage of upcoming bad guys to survive for as long as you can and score big against all other challenges.

Like Stardust has Sackboy going through pipes on his latest platforming jaunt. Be careful though! You will have to work hard to ensure that the pipes you’re climbing through are heading to a place that you actually want to go to.

Your final challenge this week is the simply addictive Balance! It’s just Sackboy, a pair of Grabinators, a lot of boxes and a simple walk… How hard could that possibly be?

Jump over to LBP.me and queue up these new LittleBigPlanet 2: Mm Picks!

The Marvel – Arcade Pack contains three fantastic new games, each of which will challenge you in very different ways. In Hero Rush, you’ll team up with three of your favourite Marvel heroes — such as Iron Man, Spider-Man, or Thor — and try to survive for as long as you can. Shoot for high score heroics by avoiding plasma beams, rockets, and all sorts of obstacular trickery. Of course, obstacular isn’t a real word, but you should never let a dictionary get in the way of your Marvel heroics!

In the mind-bending puzzler Avengers: Ultimate Escape guide several Marvel heroes, including Hulk, Captain America and many more, through a deadly maze. The cool thing about this game is that the challenges you face will be completely different depending on the hero you choose!

And last, but by no means least, we have S.H.I.E.L.D. – Interceptor! Take control of the Quinjet and blast your way through wave after wave of the invading Chitauri hordes. Don’t forget to pick up coins along the way to unlock new weapons in The Vault..

Of course, it wouldn’t be a LittleBigPlanet level pack without a whole host of new create assets to play with and bring your own creations to life! By collecting coins in the arcade games, you can unlock over a hundred new stickers, dozens of decorations, sound effects, and three new interactive music tracks.

The Marvel Arcade Pack will be available on Tuesday, April 2, 2013 for $4.99, exclusively for LittleBigPlanet PS Vita. Be there, or we’ll send Hulk round to convince you!

On February 10th, it will be Chinese New Year which marks the beginning of the Year of the Snake in China. To celebrate this popular festival, Sackboys and Sackgirls have just the perfect outfits to wear for this special occasion in our free Chinese New Year Costumes Pack.

These wonderful oriental costumes will be released on the PlayStation Store this week and will be available for one week only, so make sure you don’t miss out on your chance to see these great costumes.

To find out more about the Chinese New Year Costumes Pack and to take a look at all the other great DLC available for LittleBigPlanet, be sure to check out our LittleBigPlanet Game Add-Ons Catalogue.

LittleBigPlanet 2: Mm Picks

Our LittleBigPlanet 2: Mm Picks this week include a scenic jaunt through a variety of fun platforming levels. You can either take in the night-time atmosphere of Paris, the wonderful lights of the Spectrum Caverns or run amok in a barn with some chickens! Whatever you decide to do, you’ll be sure to have fun in these great levels.

LittleBigPlanet Karting: Team Picks!

We’re starting this round of Team Picks off with Turbine Toxique, a new track by Caiman_6 that will have you dodging toxic sludge and hurling cookies at your opponents – all in the name of first place!

Take a look at our first race lined up for you today!

If racing through a dangerous turbine isn’t your speed, have no fear; we’ve got tons of variety this week. We’re also featuring a winding race through a beautiful snowy village, a track built entirely on a comet in space, a huge medieval-style arena featuring an equally huge castle, and even a romp through a massively detailed casino!

Community Highlight – LittleBigJourney

We want to end this week with a shout-out to a great fansite that has caught our attention.
LittleBigJourney has been active for just over a year and its intrepid team of just two administrators strive to bring you all the latest LittleBigPlanet news and activities on their blog.

Since this fansite is so fantastic, we have already awarded the duo a Rare Prize Crown each and the elusive Master of the Internets Pin, so we think it’s about time to shine the spotlight on them for their hard work and continued dedication to running a thoroughly impressive LittleBigPlanet fansite.

Be sure to head over to the LittleBigJourney fansite and check it out for yourself!

It’s Monday, and although our favourite feline is well-known for hating Mondays, hopefully this week he can make an exception since the Garfield and Odie Minipack is making its LittleBigPlanet debut!

The Garfield and Odie Minipack will give Sackboy two brand new costumes for his LittleBigPlanet 2 and LittleBigPlanet PS Vita adventures, as well as providing him with a variety of stickers just perfect for creating your own Garfield comic book stories.

LittleBigPlanet Calendar Theme Out Now

We also have a special new theme on PlayStation Store to spruce up your PS3 with! This dynamic theme features a set of 12 rather nifty backgrounds, one for each month of the year.

Each background features a variety of Sackfolk having fun, so whether they’re enjoying the sunny weather in July or playing in the snow in December, you can be sure that this theme will bring you plenty of joy throughout the year!

Head over to the PlayStation Store today to pick up the LittleBigPlanet Calendar theme for $1.99, and keep Sackboy with you all year ’round.

LittleBigPlanet 2: Mm Picks

This week, our LittleBigPlanet 2: Mm Picks sees Sackboy becoming Outback Jack, as he takes off on a journey through the Australian Outback with some new platforming skills to help him survive. Meanwhile, in The Arena, Sackboy enters a first-person deathmatch arena that pits him against waves of mean robots that he will need to shoot to survive.

Finally, we finish the Mm Picks this week with Solitude in Silhouette, which sees Sackboy taking a scenic journey through some dark caves with fun gameplay and impressive visuals to behold throughout your journey.
