Have you fired many a condescending moan at the lead characters of most chart-topping blockbusters over the past few years, commenting on how the protagonist of your homebrew first-person shooter,
Hellkiller, is
so much more original and marketable? Perhaps it's time you put your unsung character design skills to work -- we suggest entering
a contest recently posted by
LittleBigPlanet creator Media Molecule to create a clever outfit for the game's texturized heroes, Sackboy and Sackgirl.
One winner from America, Japan and Europe will be chosen from the entries, and the winning designs will be posted as free DLC for the title "in the near future". Applicants, who must be 13 years or older to enter, simply need to
draw a costume over a Sackboy template on the
LittleBigPlanet site, and email it to Media Molecule. They don't mention this in the rules, but we imagine equipping
the mascot-worthy protagonist with intricately drawn reproductive organs is grounds for immediate disqualification.
