LittleBigPlanet: the Walmart trailer

by Andrew Yoon { Aug 14th 2008 at 10:30AM }

Yep, it looks like yet another retailer is sipping the LittleBigPlanet kool-aid. This time, major retailer Walmart is onboard with its own exclusive trailer. It takes a similar approach to the amazon.com trailer, showcasing all sorts of new footage that we haven't seen before. With so much support from the biggest retailers, we have a feeling that LittleBigPlanet will do just as well as we'd like it to.

Strange that it is using the old Wal*mart logo and not the new Walmart* logo.

Every time I see this game I can't help but get excited. This is now the game I look forward to most...

looks like there one of the five preorder spots that get the exclusive item...we will see...im waiting till they reveal all 5 to see which is better

Yeah I'd like someone to give away an actual little sackboy but I'm not holding my breath.

Eggy @ Aug 14th 2008 1:00PM

Not with a pre order. I'm sure they'll stick the sackboy with the Limited or Special Edition.

i really like this game. However all material shows some tearing which makes me a little sad. I mean if Tearing is even visible in TV-Ads thats pretty bad... However if anyone explains to me in a believable way that it has to do with converting Material from 60 or 30fps down to a tv-framerate or the conversion from an interlaced TVad-back to digital video i would really appreciate it...

GTA IV trailers lagged, and the game didn't. I wouldn't be worried.

Lordtombot @ Aug 14th 2008 11:07AM

I think this may be better than the amazon trailer, or just as good.

Nerdkiller @ Aug 14th 2008 11:31AM

Has anyone noticed that the music sounds like the opening theme for Futurama?

Skippy @ Aug 14th 2008 1:43PM

I was actually thinking it sounded like a slowed down version of La Bamba

Robert @ Aug 14th 2008 11:58AM

I hope this game use the youtube upload feature of the PS3, what will be better to increase the hype for this game than user created videos

nakedatthecomp @ Aug 14th 2008 11:59AM

thinkofmeasmra @ Aug 14th 2008 12:05PM

The more i see about this game the more it gets me excited for it to come out, cant wait for it to come it

LatinoLA @ Aug 14th 2008 12:51PM

out*

Gervin @ Aug 14th 2008 1:10PM

I'm wondering just how detailed level creation will be. I mean, will I be able to make swaying trees, etc.... And will this be balanced so level creation isn't a tedious uber-detailed task?

Dante @ Aug 14th 2008 1:34PM

my brother played this at Edinburgh interactive festival, and he said it was incredible, im so excited for it to come out! :)

Jak @ Aug 14th 2008 1:44PM

Every time i look at these types of trailers they make me smile. I think that is their job!!

farfisa @ Aug 14th 2008 1:53PM

Easily my favourite Walmart commercial of all time!

ryan @ Aug 14th 2008 1:55PM

this game reminds me of the good old days of nintendo. if there is anything really that i want a PS3 for, it's this game.

Dwag @ Aug 14th 2008 1:57PM

So how much can this sell?

RPMd70 @ Aug 14th 2008 3:14PM

amazon did better with putting their name in the ad. walmart just stuck it in there..."pre-order at walmart!" talk about creative laziness. cool ad content though.

Nozz @ Aug 14th 2008 3:21PM

LoL i cant wait to put my sackboy in a home made slingshot!!!

Cant wait for this!

skateRAT @ Aug 14th 2008 3:57PM
