  • Is the game done ? LOL

  • i wish i had an in-store display like that and the sackboy costume

    • We’re planning a lot of use for the costume, we’ll be sure to let you know when/where in the near future.

  • Play My Levels- DO IT NOW!!!!

  • Wow. That’s fantastic box art.

    Where can you get the wrapping paper?

  • I want some of that gift-wrapping paper, haha… Where can I get that? :D

  • PLEASE tell me where can i get some of that Holiday Wrapping Paper!?

  • Looks great so far, MM! I semi-enjoyed the first LBP and will be debating on whether to pick this one up or not. The images are great, BTW. :P

  • AWESOME. I pre-ordered the collector’s edition when it was first announced (mostly for all the special costumes) and that looks great. Also my birthday is 12/22, so a demo sounds like a good present to me. :)

  • when is the beta invites coming out for playstation plus subscribers

    • Next week, but be mindful that not all PS+ subscribers will get it – only a select batch of LBP fans within. Unfortunately, the online beta server wasn’t designed to support such a large number, but hopefully you’ll get yours (or find some more ways in…more details to come).

      :)

  • Woot Collectors edition Box is awesome, so glad I pre-ordered this :D

  • Pre-ordered from Amazon a while ago! Can’t wait to get the collector’s edition! I have 2 more trophies to get in the first game in the meantime…

  • have you added kevin butler as a costume yet?

  • @Marston43

    Thank you for actually making me laugh out loud.

  • I PRE-ORDERED AND PAYED IN FULL FOR COLLECTORS EDITION…. HOW DO I GET A BETA CODE??? PLEASE HELP. YOU CAN VERIFY THE PRE-ORDER THROUGH GAMESTOP. I LOVE LBP, GREAT JOB MM…. CANT WAIT TILL JANUARY !!!!!!

  • God I love Media Molecule and LittleBigPlanet!

  • enabling record feature???

  • I want that wrapping paper. Where can I get it?

  • Giving away free copies to PS Blog members – Beginning!?

  • Wrapping paper, I want some, lol. So when you say ideas, do you mean in game ideas or out of game ideas?

  • Pre-order — Done

  • Will the LBP2 demo feature Move support?

    • Right now, the only Move support from the world of LittleBigPlanet is “Sackboy’s Prehistoric Moves” available on the PS Store on Dec 14th. Or you can get it free on Dec 7th by being a PS+ subscriber, one of the lucky few selected to receive free (more info to come) or when you buy LittleBigPlanet 2 in January.

  • This post is amazing!!!

    Cool box art; Collector Edition looks huge; Anticipating the LBP2 demo; Kevin Butler – yes please; In store display – looks good (is that the old box art I see?); and the wrapping paper is adorable.

  • I like the CE Box. Not sure if it’s gonna fit in the gaming shelf but we’ll see. I can’t wait – just wished we would keep all the creations we’ve done in the beta for the full game. I’ve put a lot of hours into it already.

  • cool, looking forward to the spinoff for move that is free for ps+ users

  • Cannot wait to add LittleBigPlanet 2 to my Trophy and Video Game collection.

  • Reserved my copy of LB2 CE long ago. It just leaves with a few questions…1 How can a normal guy get the Store display?…2 Will the LBP wrapping paper be available for sale?…..3 where can i get that costume for next Halloween?

  • Maybe a contest where we can win a free copy of the game ?

  • wish you’d release it earlier… awesome though :)

  • I’d like some of that wrapping paper :D

  • Prehistoric moves is going to be in the LBP2 Blu-ray right?
    I pre-ordered my collectors edition on September I cant wait

  • Can’t wait, but will have to wait :( In the mean time, how do we get the wrapping paper?!?!?????

  • Please tell me that wrapping paper will be sold in stores.

  • I really wish games with move support wouldn’t have that ugly half circle on the box art, A blue strip next to Only on Playstation would be more than enough.

  • CE Pre-ordered for a while now …
    Looks great! Keep it up!

  • Hurry up and release this game now.I hope I can beat the first game before then.

  • Cool you are going to be able to build your own assassins sackboys brotherhood

  • Wonderful box art, well except from that ugly move logo. It would be really nice if you made the logo some kind of sticker or just refined it a bit. I know its the game that matters but still….I guess you can’t have it all though can you?

  • I’m so going to buy the Collector’s Edition…. but I’d be happy if I could get my hands on the wrapping paper! Any plans to see this in Canada, soon enough to wrap gifts before the holidays?

  • I like the new boxart. Well, aside from the semi-circle “Playstation Move” logo.

    Looking forward to the KB ad and the demo….and the game of course.

    As for ideas, how about some LittleBigPlanet Christmas tree decorations? I’d buy some.

  • WRAPPING PAPER!!!!! I hope that can be found in the wrapping paper section of all stores.

  • Fantastic! Somebody hand me the sleeping pills because I’m just too excited!

    How do I get the holiday wrapping LBP2 paper?

  • Sooo cute. My favorite game. Can’t wait to get my Collector’s Edition! :)

    AND WHERE DO WE GET THE WRAPPING PAPER?!?!

  • Laggy online multiplayer – Done

    Ridiculous amount of forced content patches – In Progress

  • Awesome. January is almost here.

  • I’m drooling over the LBP2 collector’s edition. I’m glad I pre-ordered it awhile back! :)

    Can’t wait to see the Kevin Butler ad! Also: the in-store display looks great. Cool Sackboy costume! Oh and the wrapping paper is nice. Though the way I unwrap presents, it would ruin that paper. :(

    Too bad Qore users are not getting into the beta. Doubt I’ll be keeping that after it runs out this month…

    That said, I’m looking forward to the demo a lot! Thx in advance! :)
