LittleBigPlanet's 'launch' freebie: SackAstronaut
As if yesterday's announcement of an entire God of War level theme for LittleBigPlanet wasn't enough to entice you to snap up the game day one, today Sony delivered the icing astronaut on the cake.
Anyone who plays Media Molecule's platforming concoction during its first week of release will be able to download a space suit costume for SackBoy, free of charge, from within the game. Sony says the suit will be a way for players to proclaim, "I was there for Launch!" Get it – launch? Like blast-off. Like what astronauts do. Hence, a space suit. Clever, eh?

Does this mean they will have suites available for sale (since they emphasize "free")?

Since I cant get into the BETA, I guess the Suit, T-Shirt, and god of war stuff will help dry my tears.
Oh, This is old! :)

Every time I see a SackAstronaut, it reminds me of Daft Punk

Yeah its old. But I haven't seen different pictures of it. Just the whole spacesuit. Its only going to be available during its first week. Once the first week passes it will be gone forever.

Not cool for people(like me) who even pre-ordering will have to wait a couple of weeks for the import to be inhand...
