VGA 2008: MM: LittleBigPlanet packs 'very substantial'

Our man Kevin Kelly is grilling celebs on the red carpet at the VGAs, and in addition to Kevin's standards ("Where's the cool party after the show?" and "Can I have a ride home?"), he's also asking about a few more substantial topics. This first nugget comes from Alex Evans of Media Molecule who said: "The LittleBigPlanet packs are going to be a lot more than what people are thinking they will be. They will be very substantial."

That's all we've got for you at the moment, but stay put for all the latest updates.

SPIKE 2008 VGAs: Media Molecule win Studio of the Year, LittleBigPlanet Best PS3 game

A few short hours ago, Media Molecule were the LittleBigWinners at the SPIKE 2008 Video Game Awards. The Guildford, England-based developers won Studio of the Year honors (over the likes of Bethesda, Harmonix, and Rockstar North), while their masterpiece, LittleBigPlanet, was named the best PLAYSTATION 3 game of 2008.

I caught up with MM?s representatives at the show just minutes after the lights went down to capture their reaction:

In case you didn?t catch what Kenny was saying about drawing a blank - they were still on cloud nine having just met Hideo Kojima!

We?ll have more from the Spike 2008 VGAs later on today.

But it nice to see the advertising actually at work though.

Whatever list that is, it's not the UK top 10. COD: WaW is #1.

Article over at EG said it has seen a huge increase in sales this week though. Probably cause of the low prices on e-tailer sites.

I like it how it is, Corris - Tell her to leave it (Y)

By the way, knitting ... you into very old girls? :rofl:

Lmao, no, she's younger than me, and I'm not that old (at least not yet :cry:)

And I don't know why she started knitting, but she does, I'm not one to complain though, it keeps her entertained so I can play games. :p

I also got a giant scarf out of it too.

Its huge, and I'm 6ft 3". :rofl:

Damn, one of you Americans is going to have to pickup a PSN card for me so I c:laugh:ally buy DLC :laugh: (My copy of LBP is American)

How the f*cking heck do I use purchased costumes? Can't find them :(

If you done a background download I think you'll need to install them from the XMB.

If they're installed, they appear in your popit menu under each body part (downloaded costumes are all separate entities, like the costumes you get during the game).

One point though, DLC isn't region free, if you bought a USA copy of LBP, you need to buy DLC off the USA PSN store.

I've installed them but they don't appear in my popit menu :(

Think this game is US region..so that's probably it :/

If you got the game before the delay/off ebay, its bound to be a USA copy.

Metal Gear Solid 4 Sackboys (Yes, Plural), Level Pack Arriving Soon

mgslbp.jpg

Looks like the Asian PlayStation website has spilled some beans. On December 18, the Hong Kong PSN will be getting not only a Solid Snake Sackboy, but a character and level pack as well.

No prices are listed, but the items themselves most certainly are. There are individual sackboy costumes for Solid Snake, Meryl, Screaming Mantis and Raiden, a pack selling all four of those, and a "Level Pack", which looks like it includes stuff like creepy, over-sized manscenery.

There's of course no mention of this on any other PlayStation website - including the notoriously leaky Japanese one - so there's no guarantee these will appear globally once Thursday rolls around. But every other LBP update has gone live globally, so keep your Kojima-caressing fingers crossed.

www.entropay.com - stack up a prepaid USD VISA card from your own account :)

Entropay is now blocked!

Or purchase a US PSN card from Ebay.

People on Ebay sell the $20 for $25 and what not.

I couldn't find 1 PSN card on Ebay that was for the actual face value.

Yeah but it costs ?18.

?18 is NOT $20.

?18 is like $28 or something, almost $30 probably.

When I need a card I think I'll just ask on NW if anyone is kind enough to buy one for $20 for me, if I paypal their account $20.

Cheapest I could find you, sorry.

I'm also sure that Entropay still works

It's cool, I ain't getting on at you.

Just as I said, no one on Ebay really sells the cards at their proper face value.

I heard Entropay still works for people who signed up a while back, but new signups are blocked in relation to the PS3.

    • Microsoft's Copilot Cowork now generally available with usage-based billing by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in March, Microsoft first revealed Copilot Cowork, a new agentic AI experience in Microsoft 365 Copilot through which users can assign tasks to AI to complete in the background. After testing the service with a limited set of customers in Research Preview for a few weeks, Microsoft announced the general availability of Copilot Cowork to customers in the Frontier program on March 30. Today, Microsoft announced the general availability of Copilot Cowork worldwide for Microsoft 365 Copilot customers. The company also highlighted that Cowork became the fastest-growing feature in the history of its Frontier program. Unlike regular Copilot Chat, Copilot Cowork can run complex, long-running, multi-tool tasks from start to finish in the cloud by using organizational context through Work IQ. When compared to Claude Cowork, Microsoft claims that Copilot Cowork will be 30% to 40% cheaper on average with its Microsoft 365 connector. For now, Copilot Cowork runs on Anthropic models, including Opus 4.8 and Sonnet 4.6. However, Frontier customers can now use GPT-5.5. Microsoft also announced Cowork 1, a secure fine-tuned model coming in the next few weeks, which is designed to handle everyday Copilot tasks at a lower cost. To access Copilot Cowork, a Microsoft 365 Copilot user subscription is required. Usage is billed separately through Copilot Credits, based on model use, context retrieval, tool calls, and runtime. Pay-as-you-go pricing is set at $0.01 per Copilot Credit. To offer IT teams full control over usage costs, Microsoft provides spending limits, usage alerts, user-level controls, reporting, and prepaid usage plans for organizations. Usage-based billing begins today. However, Frontier customers who used Cowork between March 30 and June 16 will not be billed until July 1, 2026. The Microsoft 365 Copilot app now includes a toggle to enter the full Cowork experience. Microsoft is also adding partner plugins, with Enosix, Harvey, LSEG, Miro, monday.com, Moody’s, Morningstar, S&P Global Energy, and TeamsMaestro available now. Adobe, Atlassian, Box, Canva, Databricks, and others are coming soon.
