143w ago - Klei Co-Founder Jamie Cheng has announced that Shank will be hitting PSN tomorrow, and he shared a launch trailer video and costume unlock code today too!

To quote: Over the last few days, we've been announcing the Shank Costumes over at the official Shank blog, and divulging how to unlock them on our Twitter account.

Jeff asked if I could divulge one unlock criteria especially for readers, so obviously I complied. The costume I chose was one that's close to impossible to stumble across.

So, today's special is costume number 8 -- the ANY-S costume!

Unlock Criteria

After completing the single-player campaign, input a slight modification to the classic Konami code: up+up+down+down+left+right+left+right+circle+x.





As you can guess, these outfits are odes to our own geeky fantasies. Naming them was a fun little exercise. Did you know that "Droid" is trademarked? I didn't.

And with that, I'm off! Enjoy the launch trailer and let me know if you have any questions!

152w ago - SCEA Marketing Manager Mark Valledor has posted up this week's LittleBigPlanet PS3 community update, which includes new Marvel Costume Packs and a LBP Level Kit and more!

To quote: A few weeks back, during the Mm Community Jam, Alex, myself and the rest of the Mm team stayed up all night with our super-users.

And when you combine no sleep + coffee / energy drinks / both with fun, creative minds and lots of laughter ensues. Particularly at my expense, as they found out I was the Marketing Manager for Genji: Days of the Blade.

From then it was nonstop Genji talk, ending in a brilliant auto-tuned song dedicated to me, with brilliant lyrics and chorus of "Massive Damage" / "Giant Crabs". Payback time...

200w ago - A few weeks back a scan from V-Jump Magazine revealed Tales of Vesperia swimsuits, and today a scan from the latest Famitsu Magazine unveils some new details.

The game includes a new character, Patty Fleur, along with new bosses such as Sword Dancer.

Apparently the character Flynn is now playable for more that just one battle, the game will be fully voiced and will include fresh scenes such as Yuri fighting Don Whitehorse when the party visits Keiv Moc.

To quote: Although we knew of the rest of the characters, we had yet to learn of Karol Capel's bathing suit-themed costume title.

It is entitled Energetic Beach Boy, and features Karol in swim trunks with a scuba mask on his head, along with the goggles.

Those interested can check out the scan below!

219w ago - Survival horror game Resident Evil 5 is already out in Japan.

As players have pointed out, it's possible to "purchase" new outfits by unlocking them.

Hard work, but just might be worth it.

Pictured is an unlockable outfit for RE5 character Sheva, who's an agent of the West African branch of the BSAA.

Her duds are skimpy, and there's body paint involved.

Enjoy guys!
