1. The Metal Gear Solid Premium Costume Pack will arrive on the same day, priced $5.99 / €5.99 / £4.79 or individual costumes for $1.99 / €1.99 / £1.59. The costumes available are: Meryl, Snake, Screaming Mantis & Raiden.

2. The Metal Gear Solid Premium Level Pack will arrive on the PlayStation Store on December 23rd 2008, priced $5.99 / €5.99 / £4.79. The Metal Gear Solid Premium Level Pack will overload you with MGS-themed materials, objects, stickers and decorations, plus… well - take a looky right here:

 

  • A 5th Sackboy costume…the Gurlokovich Soldier (see above).
  • 72 New Stickers
  • 12 New Materials
  • 10 New Decorations
  • 18 New objects
  • 3 new background music tracks
  • 1 new interactive music track
  • New Metal Gear Solid themed ‘sound object’
  • New Plasma Ball ‘danger element’
  • New Laser Sight ‘gadget’
  • New functioning Searchlight lamp
  • 12 new Trophies to unlock
  • THE PAINTINATOR and Paint Switch

imageWith the THE PAINTINATOR you’ll be able to splatter anything that comes between you and the end of any level.  Shoot paintballs with the R1 button and using the right stick to aim.  Paintballs will hit very weak slap.  Shoot ‘Brains’ from a safe distances now and progress thru levels much easier.  The Paint Switch, so you can attach it to any object and set it to destruct after being splattered with enough paint.


Don’t forget you can see some screenshots showing all these things and more. Though you pretty much *have* to watch the official trailer, it’s great:



Wow. There has been so much great news over the past 24 hours, we’re going to need a holiday!
Oh - we have one now, yay! And some Baileys, yay! And MGS4 DLC for Christmas day, yay!

Forget Jetpacks, give me the PAINTINATOR!

Dec 19th 2008 - 2:23 AM

Today brings massive news of new trophies coming to Little Big Planet.
The new trophies are arriving with the MGS4 Level Kit, which will be released very soon on the PlayStation Store.

imageWhat’s exciting about the trophies is that they reveal specific information about new power-ups that will be available with upcoming DLC Level Kits.

The new power up to be included with the MGS4 Level Kit is: The Paintinator.

The Paintinator is a power-up, just like the jetpack, which means you’ll be able to include this power up in your levels when you publish them, just like the jetpack. Infact, you can earn trophies from using the power up. Like the Bronze trophy: ‘Paint Sharer’ Publish a level containing METAL GEAR SOLID Paintinator Powerup. The Paintinator is a paintball gun and is capable of firing, rather obviously, paintballs. With no pics available and no video, we can only guess as to how exactly this paintball gun will work. How will it be controlled? How can you aim at other sackboys and girls?

The Paintinator marks a new era for LittleBigPlanet - It is the first official in-game weapon that a sack person can yield. This can completely change the way in which the game works and how you build your levels. This is a momentous occasion in the history of the LittleBigPlanet.

As soon as we find out the specifics of the Paintinator, we’ll be sure to post it here. In the meantime, be very excited about the new possibilities coming very soon to LittleBigPlanet.


LBP Festive Level Kit on the PSN Store now

Dec 18th 2008 - 8:32 PM

The much talked about Festive Level Pack is now available on the EU and US PlayStation Stores. Rather sensibly, the Level Pack has been renamed to Level Kit. Which makes perfect sense as it doesn’t actually contain any levels.

We’ve had a chance to look over the Festive Level Kit and we think it’s rather excellent. In fact, we’ve done a quick video review to run over the things and hopefully answer a few questions you might have.

So there you go. Materials, funky stickers, 2 costumes (plus the second part of the free santa costume this week), and some down right awesome Christmas decorations. All the new items are stored in your pop-it with the in-game story mode items. So your pop-it is not going to run out of space (that limit is just on ‘community items’).

It might only be one day a year, but this level kit sets the standard and paves the way for future kits, like the upcoming Metal Gear Solid 4 Level Kit.

Don’t forget, if you’re downloading the Festive Level Kit that update 1.06 is out now and it’s a 25Mb download, so get busy!
