Getting sick of Sackboy? Throw him around in PAIN soon
Even before PAIN first came out there were mentions of bringing other Sony characters into the game, but we didn't expect the first one to be poor naive Sackboy. If Game Informer (via 1UP) is to believed, however, we'll be flinging him out of a giant slingshot "at some point in the future." That's pretty much all the info that's available on the subject. Could this be the first downloadable character for PAIN that's worth the money? Or would you rather Sackboy was a little more choosey about the games he visits? We've been conditioned to think that he's no bigger than a plush toy, so seeing him all human-sized is going to be a little weird.

Pain is shite. Who cares.

Whatever. It was $9.99. You must have no sense of humor or something because that game lasted me many a night with friends during last Xmas break....right now I'm trying to attain a couple trophies which should be a platinum in itself imo....

From what I can gather from the trailers, he isn't even that large. I mean, he's smaller than a toy soldier, so... what, a few inches tall? Maybe 5 inches at the most?

Its PAIN... realism isn't something they are going for.... forget about the size of him, he is made of fluff...

They'll make him the same height as the midgets ninja and pirate

I think Sony benefits throwing him into as many different games as possible. If they truly are going for a Mario type character, then I suggest the next step would be to let Sackboy play a round of golf with Kratos.

I'll just design a PAIN game in LBP

The only way this would be cool is if you could import your custom sackboy into the game.

Tati is worth the .99, her ass has its own sound effects.

Man, these dumb characters should be free, no reason to nickel and dime us on a game that came bare-bones already dude.
