Sackboy knight rescues his princess in LittleBigPlanet trailer

by Nick Doerr { Jul 22nd 2008 at 1:30AM }

Sackboy wants to be a hero. In this infuriatingly cute trailer (yes, we're so bombarded by cuteness we're angry) you see the regular sackboy dreaming about becoming a knight rescuing his princess. It's another trailer showing how free you are to create your worlds and this is another success in our eyes, even if sackboy doesn't get his kiss. It's also got a great musical number going on in the background. October cannot arrive soon enough!

Joe @ Jul 22nd 2008 1:44AM

I really hope that this music is available in game

blahblahbloo @ Jul 22nd 2008 1:48AM

Why does every LittleBigPlanet trailer have such good background music?

Mattnz @ Jul 22nd 2008 9:46AM

MM have said that they have spent alot of time finding the right music so here's hoping that means the in-game soundtrack will be this good.

Deadpool @ Jul 22nd 2008 2:23AM

Wow the music in that video was so fitting! I'm getting this game. This game is so cute it Hurts! It's HURTING! BURNING! ITCHY! CUTENESS! IT JUST WON'T STOP ITCHING AND BURNING BECAUSE OF THE CUTENESS....ohhh it wasn't the cuteness afterall.

Off to the doctor I go.......!

the song is "My Patch" by Jim Noir, for anyone who's wondering.

Nick Doerr @ Jul 22nd 2008 2:52AM

You got it. I think it's from the Tower of Love album, but I could be mistaken.

War Machine @ Jul 22nd 2008 2:55AM

I was, thank you!

P @ Jul 22nd 2008 7:48AM

And he's a Manc! Mancs for the win!!!!! :D

Anyone else quickly gathering up a bit of a LBP inspired music collection?
The Go! Team, Jim Noir, i neeed mooooore!!
never in a million years would i have found their music otherwise, heard the odd TGT song but doubt i'd have heard Jim's work.

:D

Sackboy you old sly dog! This game can't come any sooner.

EPIC !!

LBPNation.com @ Jul 22nd 2008 3:28AM

One of the better games of 2008

farfisa @ Jul 22nd 2008 9:13AM

LBPNation? Are you part of the crew or just an obsessed fan? ;)

LBPNation.com @ Jul 29th 2008 11:10PM

Not an obsessed fan but just intrigued by this game. I wanted to cover the game and then build upon a community.

Tongues hanging out FTW!

SoupaNova @ Jul 22nd 2008 4:38AM

i keep watching that princess crying, IM SO OVERWHELMED WITH CUTENESS!!

Rowdehaj @ Jul 22nd 2008 5:43AM

It truly is quite smotherlingly cute.

Flame Mammoth @ Jul 22nd 2008 4:55AM

This is the most god damned adorable thing I have ever seen in my life.

NotSafe4Work @ Jul 22nd 2008 8:33AM

I agree, I'm 30 yrs old and I want my own sackboy to put on my desk at work.

Brodie-san @ Jul 22nd 2008 8:53AM

I'm also 30 and Sackboy makes me feel like a giddy little kid again.

As my Mom is a seamstress I got her to make me a Sackboy. He's awesome. I'd bring him to work but the bastids in here would steal him.

So he sits at home on my shelf above my PS3 with his tongue out - laughing as I fail at SSHD - the cheeky devil.

ChodalBerryWagon @ Jul 22nd 2008 9:37AM

@Brodie-san

are you serious??? AWESOME!!

is it as good as the one that the developers mum made?

farfisa @ Jul 22nd 2008 9:55AM

@ Brodie-san
Post a pic! I'm sure everybody here would love to see it!

Brodie-san @ Jul 22nd 2008 10:27AM

He looks pretty good to me. Hard to tell if he's as accurate as the developer's one. He's also made out of cloth instead of being "knitted" so, he looks different, but still like Sackboy.

I'll post a pic later when I get home from work (*if* I get home from work - this is turning into one of those days)

justice @ Jul 22nd 2008 9:06AM

nice...
little big will be so cool...
i cant wait any longer
=)

LAZoftheTamarinds @ Jul 22nd 2008 9:17AM

I love this trailer. Man that princess was messed up! :D

Ty @ Jul 22nd 2008 9:33AM

I didn't get the hoopla with this game but it turned me around quickly. I have a dumb question, is this a PSN title or will it be coming on disk?

ChodalBerryWagon @ Jul 22nd 2008 9:39AM

It's made to be a full-price Bluray disc game, but maybe they MIGHT just release it for download as well.

For some reason on the Wikipedia entry for it it has:
Media: Blu-ray Disc, Download

but they're yet to announce it to download (as far as I know) so it might be a mistake.
But we can hope!

stargateheaven @ Jul 22nd 2008 10:03AM

It will only be on disc. It was going to be download before but they changed their mind.

PSN: SamuraiBubba @ Jul 22nd 2008 7:52PM

@ChodalBerryWagon
Download might be referring to the user-created content. I don't remember hearing anything about the full game being a PSN title. Pretty cool if it is tho.

Chase-kun @ Jul 22nd 2008 12:17PM

This game wins so much! I love how detailed the levels are, even when they aren't really the focus of the trailer. It's subtle how they introduce different things you can create, but it's always surprising and wonderful. I'm going to be standing in line for this game (if i have to)
