  • Very disappointing that the EU Store didn’t get updated :(

  • The free video download sounds interesting. Iam getting the LBP goodies ASAP. Have a Merry Christmas everybody!

  • is canada ganna get this update too? please answer

  • First off, two weeks in a row with Playstation Classics that are worth owning, great job.

    Secondly, Luminess really should be $10.00.

    Third. Keep the jrpg’s coming.

  • Im a bit confused, there are new trophies of little big Planet that have to do with the metal gear solid pack, however the pack obviously doesn’t just add new levels, does that mean we just make a level with Rex at the beginning to get the trophy or something? seems to me adding those trophies was a stupid/annoying way of saying buy the add on pack and create more trophy cheat levels in the community. I’m disapointed with the pack.

  • “wow the pricing on this stuff is really ridiculous. $2 for themes, $12 if you want both the entire set of LBP DLC. you guys are seriously scum.”

    Talk about scum. Stop your crying. Some people do nothing but complain.

  • @toombzie

    While I agree that pricing of the LBP Costumes are overpriced, the level pack is worth it. 6 bucks for 71 new materials, 3 new music, 5 developer made levels, 1 new costume, 1 new switch, the addition of a gun. That is definitely worth the 5.99 price tag.

    @Ramza
    The LBP level pack comes with 5 developer made level, all MGS themed of course.

  • On the the front page of the store the big ad for Lumines says it’s $9.99, but when you click on it to buy the game it says it’s $14.99. Just thought someone should be made aware of this.

    • Hi Kowak –

      There was mistake on our part, where we listed the wrong price on the Ad. We are working to update it w/ the real price of $14.99. Thanks for catching it!

      – Ro

  • libregkd_117

    ok that seems better then, then they really need to improve the writing on the preview of these things as it doesn’t make it clear that you’ll be getting levels, on my first read through sounded like I would just be making them

  • @Ramza: “create more trophy cheat levels in the community”

    Forgot to add this, Liquid’s plot in LBP involves him flooding the LBP world with Trophy and you are the only one who can stop him <_<;;

  • Suikoden – yes!

    Disgaea 3 – yes!

    LBP addons – yes!

    Amazing job Sony, I think I’m going to die from gaming exhaustion. The amazing Home, Resistance 2, Motorstorm 2, Valkyria Chronicles, Crash Commander, stream of PS1 classics for my PSP. It’s a mad rush to get through it all before the greatest FPS in history, Killzone 2, is released along with White Knight, inFamous, and Heavy Rain.

    Greatest. Console. Ever.

  • why do americans get everything first! no reason not to release games, dlc all at same time! So annoying

  • where the lil big planet level pack? i see the start pack is that the level pack?

  • @Foxy

    There are these things called “laws” that prevent everything from being released at the same time. Certain areas of the world take a longer time processing/rating games then others, and then theres the whole issue of making sure its within the regulations of a certain a country (i.e. have to censor things or such)

    If Sony was able to get everything out to the world market simultaneously, don’t you think they would? Its the same story with MS and Nintendo, its just how the industry works.

  • Wow, a lot of good content!

    Thanks so much for Suikoden! Hopefully other PS1 greats are on the way.

  • Great update. I’m excited for Lumines Supernova. And Little Big Planet extras (though I do agree they are over-priced). As a side note I’m really enjoying Crash Commando, and hope to see it expanded in the future!

  • @63 I guess its because they are the SuperPower! lol

    Just kidding. Legal issues I guess.

  • Just wondering how in the world ALL the LittleBigPlanet DLC can be the EXACT SAME file size?

  • Hey, I have a question. I Downloaded the Costume pack, and the Level Pack (LBP MGS) and I think some of the pieces for the costumes are missing. Like Raidens pants, there are only 5 Clothing items. Are there supposed to be more?

  • who is from USA that is getting the level pack for lbp? i would really appreciate it if you would let me have a run through with you! Add me :D PSN: Foxy1990

  • Nice update!

  • I was expecting Lumines Supernova to be $9.99 =(. DAMN! I wont be enjoying Lumines until after the Holydays (family gathering). Its sounding like PULSE is going to be a paid service like Qore.

    Nice LBP update! Its a little pricie though.

  • Is it me, or after I bought both LBP MGS packs, I can’t find the Level Kit stuff? No Paintinator, no level building stuff – nothing? Was there a hold or rollback on this? I’m in the US BTW.

  • @ 74

    I am in the UK so I don’t have them yet, but maybe you have to collect them in game? There are something like 5 new levels to play and I would guess most of the objects can be picked up while playing through them.

  • @74, ADD ME:- Foxy1990

    Check on story

  • good update. next time i put money on my PSN account, ill download suikoden. see what its all about. maybe il check youtube first to see if its any good

  • Suikoden ?!?! Total surprise !! Keep bringing us good PSone classics like this !!

  • i’m all over LBP’S MGS STUFF sux to be a britt

  • I was hoping for a discounted price on everything, I have been waiting to purchase a bunch of psn games!

    Either way… Lumines Supernova here I come!!

  • Best Christmas Update Evar!!!!!!

    Bought LBP DLC (Both), Suikoden (Thank you, more JRPGs, kthxby), and I bought the SF DLC and Festive DLC I was missing.

    More updates like this Sony, and I’ll be broke.

  • has anyone in Canada gotten the update yet?

  • what about those of us who won the Little Big Challenge and, per Media Molecule’s blog, should get the Metal Gear pack free? Are we going to get our emails today with the codes?

  • Thanks for the update Grace.

  • Goodbye world. I’m about to depart to my magical land of Lumines! I don’t know when you’ll see me again, but don’t cry for me.

    :lol:

  • meh-ish update.

  • would kind of suck when its like WERE HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE THE LITTLE BIG CHALLENGE WINNERS WILL GET THEIR MGS PREMIUM LEVEL PACK FOR FREE! and its delayed and all others getting it now…

  • @86- “Meh-ish” if you don’t like games. :|

  • Awesome! Thanks for finally getting Lumines out. Home said it’d be out last Thursday, so I was going to be unhappy if it didn’t make it in this week. But now when will I find time for the new LBP DLC? ;)

  • Thank you! And MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

  • anyone get the update in Canada?

  • This is so not the best Christmas update ever. I gotta say once upon a time… when the PS3 had nary a few good games… on December 24th, 2006… a FREE Gran Turismo HD demo hit the store. Now, THAT was the best update ever. Still haven’t beat it yet in my opinion in terms of “wow” factor. Unleashing a Killzone 2 demo on us this year would’ve 1-upped that historical moment, IMO. :)

  • How come Lumines is listed as 9.99 on the storefront, but when it’s added to the cart it’s 14.99?

  • Ooh, the Joker premium theme is tempting. I’ll probably get that with the LBP level pack for a nice $10 week.

  • also from canada, it’s kinda annoying cause all the ads have updated yet none of the content is there, i know you guys have an ignore ignore ignore policy on when things go wrong and when issues occur but come on, if it isnt going up today, i’ll live just give us some info on the situation

  • Heh, love reading the whiner posts. They QQ about a few dollars endlessly, but have no problem dropped hundreds of dollars a month on their cell phone bill, no problem buying $5 coffee from starbucks, no problem getting fat eating fast food lunch. Are you upset ’cause the few dollars PSN charges you for exclusive DLC is dipping into your retirement fund?

  • Thanks for great update. I’ve always wanted to play Suikoden and now I finally have the chance – without selling some internal orgnans, too!

  • I really liked Pulse and I’m looking forward to see more of it. Thanks!

  • For the Canadians, the new Rock Band songs and LBP stuff can both be accessed through their in game stores and Lumines can be purchased if you click on the as on the front page of the store.
