Sony Unveils PlayStation Plus Treats, Includes LBP2 PS3 Open Beta

[PS3 News]

Sony PlayStation Network Product Manager James Thorpe has unveiled the treats for PlayStation Plus subscribers this week, which include Dead Nation and Hustle Kings avatars and access to the LBP2 PS3 Open Beta.

To quote: Hi Guys, it's already time to give you the first installment of your festive December treats. So here goes...

You may have seen Alex's post last month about LittleBigPlanet 2 and the amazing new game coming to PSN on 15 December: Sack Boy's Prehistoric Moves.

We thought you guys might like this so we are giving it to you completely free and one week before everyone else on PSN. New, free and early!

The second treat today is also LBP2 related. We were gutted we couldn't give you the first LBP2 beta exclusively but to hopefully make up for it a little, we have managed to persuade the guys to extend the LBP2 beta for you Plus members.

The numbers are unfortunately limited but if you have been chosen then you should have already received an email and are hopefully playing, creating and sharing as we speak.

Another treat for this month is something you have been asking for: There are two Dead Nation Avatars now available for download. Check out your exclusive 'Hero' and 'Heroine' avatars today.

And finally, today you will be able to download a selection of free Hustle Kings avatars. Download them quickly though, as they will only be on the Plus section for two weeks.

This is just the start of the December treats so keep your eyes open for another update very soon.
