Archive: 44 posts


Here's some cute&cool DLC supposedly coming our way:

New Pic:

However they won't be cheap:

As most of you may have heard from the PS Blog and , Ryu, Chun-Li, Guile and Zangief have received a SackBoy makeover and officially joining the world of LittleBigPlanet. For all you die-hard fans that gave up their life savings and significant other to play Street Fighter back in the day, this is your opportunity to relive your favorite past time in LittleBigPlanet. With all of us being such fans of Street Fighter, we can only imagine the custom types of ?Hadoken? and ?Sonic Booms? you guys will create using the in-game emitters and switches.

So line up those quarters from your coin-up days and pick up your favorite Ryu, Chun-Li , Guile or Zangief character costume for $1.99 each, or ALL 4 Costumes for $5.99 in our Street Fighter Costume Pack.

And To truly relive your Street Fighter experience, be sure to also download the Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix now available on the PlayStation Network

From Kotaku:

"Ripten dug out of a Spanish PlayStation blog that little tidbit above ? that Chun-Li, Guile, Zangief and Ryu are inbound for LittleBigPlanet. Rumor has it they're gonna be available for download individually or as a package deal. No date or pricing info yet, but SCEE has asked two other sites to take down the image (might we be the third?) so it sounds pretty legit to me.

Clearly, everyone's grasped the huge back-office business case made by something like LittleBigPlanet ? publishers of upcoming/just-out hot titles get to flog it with novelty DLC, Sony/download channel owner gets a nice cut of the dough, gamers get silly toys to brag about to their friends. Much better than console themes. Better believe Microsoft is scheming up a response."

You can bet they will. I doubt any branded Costume DLC will ever be free. As before I imagine they will come seperate or in a pack.2008-11-30 19:52:00

The Ryu Sackboy looks awesome! I wonder if Sony could co-operate with Nintendo or Microsoft, for a Link or Master Chief costume.2008-11-30 20:07:00

If I had to guess, I'd say the pricing would be $2 each or $5 for all. I'd buy them all though, those are pretty nice.2008-11-30 20:12:00

Yea the Ryu one is the one that got my attention. I can see myself making an official Version 2 KAPBAM Sackboy out of those costume pieces

You beat me to it. Saw this yesterday, but it doesnt look too appealing..
but on another note, Im seeing some Goron potential in the big buff one... give your guy some bad teeth brown skin that chest, some dark brown spots on the back... i hope they come seperate.

Whoa, we've ventured into third-party. :O

This is promising. It's a shame I don't care about Street Fighter but it makes me wonder what else they might come out with.

Never going to happen. I'm 100% sure of it.

What do you classify the previously announced old snake and sephiroth costumes as?

Whilst I don't care for Street Fighter, that has put the idea of Tekken costumes in my head. Oh God please. I'd pay ?5 for a Jin costume alone. Imagine a Devil Jin costume, even if you didn't care for Tekken, the idea of putting wings on your SackBoy would be worth paying out for.2008-11-30 21:18:00

Things starting to look all the more "official" perhaps...

http://www.ps3fanboy.com/2008/11/30/street-fighter-characters-invade-littlebigplanet/

Capcom hinted at a "little" surprise for PS3 fans not too long ago. Some of you thought this was a clue to some kind of Street Fighter + LBP collaboration. Well, looks like those suspicions may be right. Sack-renditions of Zangief, Chun-Li, Guile and Ryu were discovered by the site PSNow.

While some may cast doubt on these images, our belief in their credibility is cemented by SCEE's request to remove these images. If this image isn't real, there's no reason for SCEE to stop this apparant leak.

Well I didn't see anything about this posted and I was suprised by that so I thought I'd share a rumor that Joystiq picked up. Also found at the next link.

It's possible we may be seeing street fighter costumes come this holiday season so make way for the awesome.

Yeah, I saw those on NeoGAF.

I laughed out loud. Those are awesome, and I'm not even a big SF fan.

Each of those look great but if you blow them up and look at the textures they start to look more fake. I hope these are real. Guile is the man.2008-12-01 23:18:00

http://www.ps3fanboy.com/2008/12/04/european-psn-releases-for-december-4th/

...There's also the normal amount of add-on content, though no sign of pay-for LittleBigPlanet costumes, which strikes us as odd...

- LittleBigPlanet "Kabuki Actor" costume (free)

Just have to wait and see what the American store looks like I suppose...

I'm not sure if its worth ?5 for all :l

Also a question. When you buy a costume for ?1.15 or whatever, its $1.99 that means its more expensive in the U.S.. I am from the UK but why is this, it should be $1.87 to be exact..

Lol seriously! I will too. But I don't mind, especially when they start coming out with things other than costumes, I will have been glad to help finance them. If everything were free, they would NOT keep on supporting it as long, no doubt about that!

It's all about marketing. 1.99$ makes you (most people) see it as 1$ rather than 2$. It's the psycology of it. Also making it 1.87$ is problematic because it makes it look cheap but not in a good way. It makes it look like you are saving pennies and might actually disuade people who like to buy things that seem to have good value. I.e. why do you think Walmart's prices always finish in 87s and 53s, etc. Their customers want to feel like they have saved every penny possible. I'm not bashing anything here, it's quite purely the way marketers approach us with their products. (I had a class on this, I love marketing, it's a very intricate subject)

Dude, how did you guess that well?

I think I may have powers of prediction. I've predicted every AL and AU football game correctly this season as well.

I actually saw an article saying that premium packs would be $6.00 shortly after writing that, but I liked my estimate better.
