47w ago - Sony Associate Producer Jason Coker has announced today that the LittleBigPlanet Karting PS3 Beta is coming soon to fans!

To quote: Greetings Sackfolk! The LittleBigPlanet community is about to get another very special treat!

In case the opportunity to participate in the LittleBigPlanet Beta on PS Vita wasn't amazing enough, many of you will soon have the chance to participate in the LittleBigPlanet Karting Beta on PS3!

The goal of the Beta is to get feedback on the overall experience from Sackfolk who understand it like few others - you!

There will be a lot more information to follow, so keep an eye on the PlayStation Blog for details on how to register.

For now, though, dust off your driving gloves and prepare to experience the most competitive LittleBigPlanet yet!

61w ago - Media Molecule Studio Director Siobhan Reddy has announced today alongside a video trailer that LittleBigPlanet Karting is coming to the PS3 entertainment system!

To quote: Earlier this year, we cut some cake and popped some champagne to celebrate Media Molecule's sixth birthday!

We've had an awesome time during the last six years, seeing how the experiment we started here in Guildford has grown, giving rise to a thriving LittleBigPlanet community. This year will be no different, filled with DLC, plus new experiments from the LBP family for you to play with.

You already know about the fantastic LBP work that Tarsier Studios and Double Eleven Studios are doing on LittleBigPlanet for PS Vita, and now we are delighted to announce today a new LBP collaboration with the hugely talented team at United Front Games who will be leading a new project called LittleBigPlanet Karting!

We've all seen that UFG has a wealth of racing experience and they're also intimately familiar with LBP's cornerstones of "Play, Create, Share." With LBP's powerful and diverse toolset in their capable hands, LittleBigPlanet Karting is sure to be an adventure that both LBP fans and kart-racing fans alike will enjoy!

We are eager to see what you think of this union and especially excited...

125w ago - Recently BludgaBoy has shared a LittleBigPlanet 2 PS3 BETA - Windows: LBP Edition Creation video showcasing the work of Boss_Mob, SaggySackBoy, tomatenbrei and daFRED94.

While the game isn't available until later this month, those interested can check it out below.

To quote from Kotaku: "This Windows XP homage, built in the LittleBigPlanet 2 beta, won't run a copy of Excel or PowerPoint, but it does do a reasonably good impersonation of the operating system's desktop, start menu, built-in timewaster games and, naturally, a blue screen of death."

Finally, from the video's caption: "It works... well, *almost* perfectly (just like the real Windows, there are some kinks in the works), and it's an extremely accurate re-creation, right down to the log in noise. You've got pictures, music, videos; even some built in games for you to play! Who needs the NT kernel or C++ when you've got LittleBigPlanet 2?"

131w ago - SCEA Marketing Manager Mark Valledor has made available some videos today as part of their LittleBigPlanet PS3 community update dubbed The Cha Cha Cha Edition.

To quote: You know you've sang it, heard it, maybe even yelled it - the Happy Birthday song with the added "Cha Cha Cha" in-between the lyrics. Well. there's been several instances around here where we've been singing the tune at the top of our lungs.

132w ago - SCEA Marketing Manager Mark Valledor has shared several videos today spotlighting LittleBigPlanet PS3 updates including LBP2 Beta costumes.

To quote: Remembering Costumes

Remember the first time you played LittleBigPlanet? Remember the first thing you did? For us, it was opening the POP-IT and customizing our own little Sackboy (or Sackgirl).

I'm sure most of you remember dressing your own little Sackboy - and as we reminisce, we're reminded of a few community gems that we thought we should share...

Costume Montages

sposim94 has creatively put together a two pieces we love with tons of LittleBigPlanet and LittleBigPlanet 2 beta costumes:








sposim94: We can't wait to see what you do with the costumes in LittleBigPlanet 2!

Over on LittleBigPlanetCentral, they got together and created a brilliant group photo.
