Hey all,

We’ve been working with our North American retailers to promote the release of LittleBigPlanet in October 2008. And now that the “planning dust” has settled, we wanted to share early details of our pre-order campaign for you to decide which item you’d like. Stay tuned for much more detail on which retailer will have what pre-order item and when to go to your favorite retailer to reserve your copy.

Here’s the master list:

The Official “LittleBigPlanet Creator” MiniGuide by Brady Games - This exclusive digital guide is a primer for LittleBIGPlanet’s CREATE tools and provides users with a quick tutorial to begin developing their own levels.”

Exclusive Kratos SackBoy - Nuff’ said. Yes…the forum rumors were true - but the biggest question remains “why didn’t this guy smile?” Seriously, this is another exclusive downloadable costume that will elevate your SackBoy status to godlike proportions.

Amazing!

The fact that they are pushing Nariko, with no sequel in the works makes me wonder if she'll make a cameo in GOW3 :D

:O

Done and done. Where/when do I pre-order?

Wait, I thought those were actual Sackboy toys... oh well, still gonna pre-order. :D
 
When I first scrolled down I thought the Nariko plush was being included in the box. Oh well, in-game skin is awesome still. Guess I'm going to pre-order what I've been expecting to be one of the best games this gen.

Pretty much, i read through each one and felt dissapointment. I would have loved a real one.

Thank you Sony. Now announce the Limited Edition. Now. Stat.

Edit: I just realized each retailer gets a 'specific' item. F-that. I want all of them. Is it that hard to announce a making of Bluray Disc? I want to see how the most innovative game in the last 4 years was made.

Nariko as imagined by Santa Monica Studios = TOO MUCH WIN!!!

Btw I would sacrifice a goat for the ability to use weapons (as in swords) in this game. Would awsome if you could actually use Kratos' and Nariko's weapons.

Maybe that was what Alex was talking about when he mentioned there being 1 big announcement left. The use of weapons seems like a possibility.

Is anyone else disappointed? The only thing I find cool is the sack. However, the Nariko and Kratos downloadable costumes just make me go meh. Why would I want a sticker book or a digital guide? Come on Sony.

I want the dolls. I want a fancy looking box. I want a soundtrack.

Would be so awsome if we could create both traditional platformers aswell as action platformers (swords + guns).

So this is for North America?
There better be a way to get these in the UK. I want Kratos sackboy. :(

Btw all of these things+a real Sackboy better be included in the LE. Also, they'd better not be fucking over Europe with this one.

Seriously.

I hope Sony isn't this clueless about marketing their first party titles. I mean, come on. Microsoft has some nice LE for almost every single one of their 1st party releases.

If I am not going to get a free sack boy with this game. I WILL TURN EVEN MORE BEAVERS INTO GOLD! THEY STRUGGLE BUT THEY NEVER ESCAPE.

Does anyone remember when when Nintendo released Pokemon book covers to students for free? I was in seventh grade and up until that point I had never heard of Pokemon, and than I finally saw the book covers, and was like "oh snap".

They need to do some sort of promotion like that for the kids table. For us hardcore GAFFers, we need more than just a coloring book and a zip lock bag.

I also thought it was a plushie when I read it, then I read costume, bummer. If it's one different of these "bonus" items per retail, not the greatest pre-order bonus, the stickers rank up there with DS stylus give aways.

Nice..
But..
Stay tuned for much more detail on which retailer will have what pre-order item
...it seems as if every store is getting a different extra.. :/
Probably Gamestop will have the Kratos code..Target: Nariko..Toys R Us the sticker book..something like that... :/

Why not make some "collector's edition" with all that (and then some more).??... :(

All this game needs to succeed is cut and paste that first trailer they released as the commercial. The music plus the distinct look will get people interested much more than their current "epic speech" commercial that they've been running recently for the PS3.

Yeah I don't really agree with the use of that commercial, it's really not effective IMO.

edit- forgot to mention that I LOVE all the pre-order goods.
