Sonic DLC early (well knuckles)

Archive: 71 posts


I was browsing the store looking for something. i searched sonic to see if there was any cheap sonic games.
Then i came across the knuckles costume for lbp, so i thought this cant be real so i clicked on it and it came up with the information for the sonic dlc. So i brought it just tol see if it realy worked (A bit Dumb)

I loaded up lbp and what did I see

then i toke it form there then

The costume is not that nice. Its pritty basic, the hair is boring and the gloves are just a white.
This might be to do with its early apperence.

So yeah Taa-Daa

Why is it called Sonic Unleashed Pack? Knuckles wasn't in Sonic Unleashed (well not the Wii one anyway).

Yeah, that costume doesn't look , that good tbh, the gloves don't even have spikes!

Early appearance on the store you mean?

Whether or not it's released now, or a few more weeks, that is how it will look... the pack has been on our PS3's since last year since the original release was meant to be just before Christmas, but was postponed since the water pack made it's release date.

I still believe that this pack was readied in case the Water didn't make it's date. When it did then there was no need to release this pack then, since we know which of the two packs would be more popular.

They look crap, because they are.
The worst looking (costume) DLC pack Mm have made.

Just having a close look at this and it really does look like an average custom costume attempt, rather than an official DLC costume.

The one I want to see is Robotnik/Eggman... whoever it is, that for me seems the only one that has any sort of potential from this pack.

Hah, who would pay that much for such an ugly costume (experimenting people aside)?

I've news-ified (http://www.littlebigland.com/little-big-planet-ps3/sonic-costume-accidentally-released/) it by the way, bakscratch.

Looked on the store a few minutes ago and only the knuckles one is there, very strange.

I can't believe how rubbish that looks though. We've given Mm plenty of stick over the last year or so about crappy costumes and crappy stickers but they just don't seem to take any notice whatsoever. Surely you would have thought that especially with a character as iconic as Sonic they would have tried to make it as perfect as possible but as far as I can tell from that very small picture it appears not. I've seen custom ones that look miles better. What's going on at Mm ??

Eeeek - that does look a bit... ummm... what's a nice word.... primitive? I'm a sheep when it comes to DLC so I'll probably buy the darn things but wow, not the quality I've come to expect from MM at all.2010-02-11 18:14:00

yeah. it seems a bit...rushed.

but eggman does look pretty cool and the best out of the whole pack. id buy him.

bakscratch, just wondering. what parts of the costume are there? is it just a skin, hair and gloves? if so, you get more in the free costumes.

They could've also given us spiked gloves instead of having another slightly different colour copy of the same glove!

I saw this on the store when going to show my sister the PoTC pack

It looks unfinished, the gloves dont appear to be spiked (they wouldnt leave out the reason knuckles has his name, would they?), the eyes are wrong, the skin and spines dont match in colour. also seeing as MM didnt announce it, im guessing it was accidentally put up.

Is it just me or does bakscratch discover a lot? Layer glitch, secret tutorial music (even though you can't use it), this, probably 100's more.

And my god that dlc is crap. And i rarely say that. I've seen comunity made costumes better than that! Oh my. Well if this was a mistake and they take it off and completley change it you could end up with the rarest costume ever on lbp... even though it sucks. Sorry MM if you read this but it's true.

Lol.

The costume is just realy weard i showed some people and they althought it was a custom one.
Hopefuly Mm are going to make the rest much MUCH better.

Its just a Skin, Gloves, Hair, and this tiny little bead for a noise and some shoes which look ok.

The pack is already done... so I highly doubt they are going to re-do it.

It's as it's shown there, the data is already in the game.

Something must be wrong here, I mean compare that knuckles to the early pictures we were shown a while back.

Well, actually now that I look closely... :/ Disappointing DLC.

You're right. The only one that looks remotely worth buying is the eggman one D:
Also, I'm gonna be honest, the knuckles one looks better in this picture than the in-game screenshot one.

They were removed from the store because of the slip up in accidentally releasing them.

High possibility of it including some stickers in the full pack, but not levels.

Frying pan?

Anywho, the costumes just don't look right because of the eyes, they arent manga/anime. The only one that looks good is eggman.

I'd have to disagree i think all of them look bad, I would Perhaps Buy Tails, If It Came with a double tail, But that would be the end of that.

I really thought back in december when the rumors started flying about this DLC that it wasn't true. I thought it was some photoshopped image or something. When it didn't come out on the date it was supposed to I was absolutely positive this was the case. But now, seeing that this DLC was actually something MADE AND ENDORSED BY MM, I can't believe the poor quality of it. I look at the assassins creed DLC and then these sonic ones and wonder how the same company could be responsible for both. Hopefully they've realized these are terrible and that's why they were pulled.2010-02-12 17:24:00

Actually, I meant that you could add that to any costume you already have.


I am hoping that future packs are back up to the old standard. The white knight chronicles costumes look promising.

I agree with the consensus on this one. What I think is really missing here is the pointy noise and of course the spikes on the gloves. One could only imagine how horrific sonic might turn out.2010-02-12 22:36:00

Dont expect this kit to be released for a while i say
hopefully MM have seen our opinions and will improve them

I'd like the Sonic style eyes as actual Eyes for sackboy, that blink, not part of the hat

When you look at the diffrences.


These are the things that stand out when you look at knuckles
-Two spikes on handgloves.
-Big shoes.
-Big eyes.
-Tail
-Snout.
-Fire red colour.

These are the things that the LBP Knuckles does not has.
-Two spikes on handgloves. (edit, the knuckles does have these!)
-Big shoes. (The shoes look kinda good)
-Big eyes.
-Tail
-Snout. (Its flat, isnt it suppose to be a little to the front?)
-Fire red colour. (Its not completely red)


-----------edit----------------
Look at this, a sonic made from stickers, it looks even better than the sonic MM made.
http://media.photobucket.com/image/littlebigplanet+sonic/core44/LittleBigPlanet/Sonic.jpg?o=1

And look at the right knuckles, its better than the Knuckles MM gave us.
If i had to buy one of these it would be one with the stickers lol (if it wasn't possible to make it myself)

Whoever 'owns' Sonic (it was SEGA back in the day) would not want this released--and if they approved this design... well that's just further evidence why I don't know who currently owns sonic-- because there hasn't been a worthy succesors to the original in like decades.2010-02-13 15:02:00

How has no-one thought about this... 45 day before release, they "accidently" release knuckles... which is horrible looking... then on april first, after you download the pack, BAM! Final fantasy pack appears with a note that says, APRIL FOOLS! They give both packs to you and after you stop feeling stupid... you laugh...






Then your Ps3 explodes....

You know what...after seeing the costume ingame myself (Nemesisninja has it- his is glitched too lucky sod...he got it for free! D: )...I will have to say...
It's not actually as bad as you think- sure the wig and the skin don't match...but we can make stickers right? Easy fix.
First of all, the gloves look nice close up, though unlike the real Knuckles they have fingers separated but that's not really a problem.
Then we have the shoes- these are more useful that you may think- they are not oversized and look great when stickered!
The costume also has it's own tail and iirc it's own nose too but I'll have to get him to show me again as I may be wrong...

As for the pack itself, I will most likely buy it! I have a feeling it will come with stickers because the Icon Neme showed me on his store had a slightly different icon that looked like it had rings and a GHZ Palmtree on there- here's to hoping we get some Retro Sonic stickers too!

I can see why you guys are not happy with it but...how many of you have bought the Loco Roco costumes? Those are not exactly...great...
Sure the Sonic costumes will be more expensive, but they will have those extra bits that will have their uses.

Just my two pennies...I'm no American! D:

Yes, we can sticker the costume, but we shouldn't have to! The official costumes should be the best attempt at making it! I think this will join the toro costume as the DLC I haven't bought...2010-03-09 10:38:00

Nice touch using a community level in the trailer

These actually look slightly better with the actual picture

I like that eggmans hovercraft is a seperate piece, so it can be just Eggy (:

Also, whats 'costume', listed as a piece for eggman and werehog?

Of course, im gonna be buying ( Glad I didnt buy the History Kit today then )

Improvements that I think would have made it better: Fix the eyes (though easily done with stickers, just feel cheated a bit), Add a 6th character (Shadow!), And should have come with the GHZ music

Humm... if I can give you an advice, I think the history kit is really more interesting (and cheaper) than this one


Anyway, cool that these costumes are finallly out.
They look ok but I'm not buying this pack...and the stickers are a little too specific for me.

I'll wait for the next one
(I have no choice anyway, because I don't have my PS3 at the moment)
