We now have two new costumes at the PlayStation Store. You can stick a turkey in your SackBoy’s head, for free. Or you can pay $1.99 and dress up as a Chimera, from Resistance.

If you don’t have a PlayStation Eye and need more textures to create cool surfaces, fear no more! We’ll bring you cool texture packs on a regular basis to spice things up.

The first texture pack has 10 stickers to create walls. Combine these textures with different materials and you’ll be able to create all kinds of walls.

To get the textures look for the level LittleBigMadness.com Textures Pack 1.

This was NOT confirmed by Sony, but someone leaked information from the anual SCE staff briefing. This is what he said about LittleBigPlanet:

Our source also confirmed that LittleBigPlanet PSP is definitely in development and that Media Molecule have been working on it for four months. Footage was shown to attendees, though Alex Evans allegedly wasn’t prepared to show it himself because it was such an early build. “It looked good, obviously not PS3 good, but missing the level of detail that you get in a final release”.

Version 1.04 of LittleBigPlanet is now live. When you start the game, it will download and install a small patch. It’s still not clear what’s new in 1.04.

New costumes are coming to the PlayStation Store tomorrow. You will find 5 LocoRoco-themed costumes, at $2.99. If you’re looking for freebies, there’s a Sack-in-theBox costume, from the LittleBigChallenge 003.

One of the best LBP user levels is back, after it was moderated without any logical reason. Enjoy The Azure Palace!

After the vanishing of many, many, good LBP levels, a petition is now online to ask Sony for a better moderation system. So, forget about saving Pluto, and save LittleBigPlanet!

Due to carelessness on Sony’s part, levels have been removed from the online servers without reason or rhyme. It is getting worse, with levels like The Azure Palace, World of Colour, and God of War - Demon Skull being pulled off the servers. These levels have all been recognized, by Media Molecule and many other sources, as some of the best on the servers. However, they were pulled down from the servers without even a word to their creators as to why it happened. This is getting increasingly worse, and it is an affront to the creator’s time and hard work. Sony, we ask you this: recognize the mistake that was made, reinstate the hearts and play count of levels that were undeserving of being moderated(such as the three listed above), and quickly repair your flawed moderation system to include custom reasons and to give the creator a chance to fix the issue before it is pulled offline.

Sony Computer Entertainment and Media Molecule would like to thank everyone in the LittleBigPlanet online community for an amazing start! So far a staggering 84,000 individual levels have been uploaded and more than 27 million level play throughs have been completed. We couldn’t be happier with the initial efforts from our community members; the variety and quality of some of the creations has been astounding. We’ve seen everything from great platform adventures, puzzles and quizzes through to stories and races. We have even had a wedding proposal created entirely in the game!
