LittleBigPlanet 2 Round-Up – Grabinator Featurette, Collector’s Edition, Home Space Update

Oh yeah I should not be rude let me thank you SCEE

Thanks for the marvelous shaft job once again.

i think now the content is worth the price but its still not a collectors edition as there is nothing to collect. and i havent seen any plushies in holland.

and also i want something with the game that only a few people would have and not some plushie everyone can go out and buy

@29… I did that, you shouldn’t have been playing around with the God glich in the first place *Sigh*
Just press start button, settings, profile tab, import, use your most recently used one. Done

Good to know the retail price is the same. Now I’m sure my gameshope will just swap my preorder of the normal edition in the Collector’s (which, angry or not, I would’ve bought anyway)

But euhm, any news on getting any of that real life stuff in countries other then the UK? I’m craving for a sackboy plush or action figure and just can’t get my hands on one… It would be nice if the bookends and the plush would be available here.

We all should be an interesting possible user base.. When will it be launched already.. It is taking like forever.. With no word.

You know what SCEE not communicating is equal to no understanding. Like I said before sharing is caring so share the info with us.

When:

Video store
Comic store
descend PSONE classics
Netflix/lovefilm type of services
Cloud saves
Xchat

And so many more that the fanbase/userbase is crying out for.

The price is what makes it somewhat alright. It still is more like one of those EA first run “Special Editions” (Battlefield, MoH, NFS etc.) and not even close to what a LBP CE could and should be.

RRP of €69.99 is pretty steep for a normal game.
It’s on point when its a collectors edition with some exciting extra’s, but that isn’t the case either.

I’ll be importing.

@wbrinkman what about the dlc content..?

Already on the disc for everyone, basicly withholding content from non-collectors edition buyers – and to be fair, I don’t rate DLC very much anyway.

If this turns out to be the same price as the regular edition then I’ll buy, but simply making the price the same as the standard version doesnt make it anymore a collectors edition than it was when first mentioned, there is nothing to collect in this collectors edition and the cover for the game is awful I prefere the standard edition cover for the game with the happy sack faces on it, not one sack face on collectors edition just a huge zip how bland

Alex, just one thing I want to know.. Will those 5 avatars come to PS Store? (I get the normal edition, so can I buy those avatars from PS Store?)

@ mitran
There will be 10 playable move lvl’s on the disc when it ships and they plan to release the tools to create your own lvls using move later, which you will be able to download from PSN for free

so you took all the negative feedback and online petitions and instead of taking them on board threw them out and basically re-iterated your position and then left it too the regional retailers to rectify your mistake at asuming what consumers in PAL regions wanted. i’m sorry i dont buy this rubbish. Many might forgive you, i wont until we get the collectors edtion that we PAL consumers deserve.

@Alex
“On top of all of these ‘core’ contents, in many countries there will also be additional or expanded bundles available that include some cool real-world LittleBigPlanet items.”

A simple question: These “real-world LittleBigPlanet items” will those be exlusively bundled with the game or will they also be sold seperately? because I am looking for exclusive real world items to be bundled with my collectors edition, since that is what a collectors edition should include. Thnx!

so how much does it cost in australian dollars??

It seems that your information regarding the price may incorrect, one online retailer has the collectors edition at an RRP of £59.99 and the regular edition at £49.99. The actual difference in listed price is £17. If these RRPs are correct that is still far less content than the US edition for £5 more! Think we are still getting the poor end of the deal despite your reassurances!

Eight retailers on Gamestracker.com all have £55 for the price of the collectors edition. Are they all wrong? Or is the regular edition £55 as well?! Still shafted then and offered false promises to get us back onside. Weak!

NOT THE SAME PRICE AT ALL!

I thought Gamestracker.com was a price comparison site to find the cheapest prices? I can get LBP2 standard edition for £37.99 with free 1st class delivery, I dont see any collectors editions yet in the stores I regularly use tho.

Oh and thnx Alex for your lack of response, I guess the “real-world LittleBigPlanet items” can be bought without even buying the game, you need to change the info for this edition as its NOT a collectors edition its a stealbook edition. SCEE have no idea what a collectors edition is. A collectors edition as in REAL collectables for example, coin collectors DO NOT collect virtual coins the same as stamp collectors do not collect virtual stamps etc… I hope this helps

I don’t understand how everyone is all happy and calm now, SCEE will still end up giving us crappy collectors editions in the future since they know everyone is happy enough with a collectors edition which is the same price as the standard edition.

Europe should be getting the bookends and plushie, it’s not just about LBP2 or the price, it’s about all the future amazing collectors editions that will come out for the USA and we’ll end up getting shaffted all over again by SCEE

ill run round london naked if the collectors edition is the same price as the standard edition…..
although looking in the uk who are listing this so called “collectors edition” (haha sorry cant say that with a straight face) it is about £15 more than the standard edition

Im pre-ordering this when i get the chance to.

OMG I couldnt have put it better myself lisa_2k6
Everything you have said is spot on, this is not a CE its a steelbox edition!

So Alex, any response at all to the fact that so far all retailers are charging £17 more for the ‘collectors edition’ when you said it was going to be the same price as the regular edition? Even the listed RRP is £10 different. Not such a “cool thing to note” it seems!

Normal edition it is..

They really do not understand what a COLLECTORS edition is do they lol

We want material goods which can’t be bought anywhere else. And also if we get the CE we expect to get ALL the DLC and not specific depending on retailers. Thats what you do with the Standard Edition and not the Collectors Edition. So far you might as well call it the ‘Extra DLC overpriced under-contented crappy case edition’

Another annoying thing also is I bet the retailer specific costumes won’t even be available in the PS Store lol for us to buy if we didnt get it from that retialer……O i know Il just buy a couple of copies so I get everything -_-

Hi,does anyone know where you can pre order the Collectors edition in Ireland or the UK? and if I were to order the UK version would it work in Ireland with the DLC and please don’t tell me Zavvi because it will be released there on the 21st of January because I want to get it on the 1st Jan. I checked amazon too but it’s not there!

You won’t get it anywhere on 1st January. The game’s release date in Europe is 21st January, so that is the date you get it.

Typical, but I will still be getting the Collector’s Edition from Game.

Thoroughly disappointed that I cannot find one list of EU online shops that will be selling the Ratchet, Clank, Jak and Daxter costumes.

Does anyone have a list of shops for EU?
