Win a LBP Prize Crown by creating a birthday level

by Andrew Yoon on Nov 19th 2008 12:20AM

Want to win a limited edition (virtual) item that almost no one else will be able to get? Well, here's your chance. To celebrate PS3's second birthday, Sony is challenging LBP players to create a level celebrating two years of Sony's black box. The rules are simple, but you must create your level by December 9th. Then, LBP community members will vote on their favorites.

Here are the rules:

1. Create an original LittleBigPlanet level celebrating the PLAYSTATION 3 second anniversary.

2. You must name your Level using this format. "LBC1 -< YourLevelNameHere >".

3. Publish your Level to the LittleBigPlanet online server at any time up until 11:59am PST December 9, 2008 when the contest closes.

4. Send an e-mail submission to community_support@playstation.sony.com and indicate your level name (LBC1 - < YourLevelNameHere >) in the subject line. Include your PlayStation Network ID along with the name of your Level in your e-mail submission.

Good luck!

Wow

Any info on if this once more is US only, or can europeans also take part in it?

Dont tempt me...

Can canadians do it?

US only.

The tricky part will be to not get the level deleted due to copyright infringements.

Even better, it's dead easy to take out your competition. Just before the competition deadline, open up their levels and submit a grief report. Then submit your level. You can't lose!

Its hard to create a birthday level, as you are not sure whether u r breaking the copyright law...

Excellent, I've been looking for a decent reason to create a level. I started one, but haven't had the energy to go back and complete it. I spent hours creating a nice little trap, only for it to not work how I intended it! Sadness all round!

Now I wonder if we're allowed to use Sony and PS3 related imagery within the level without it causing copyright issues... ?

i'll assume that's a given that their fair use if they are SCE properties unless they do that whole messed up thing where they want to be seperate. Or possibly Sony icon's as a whole (except join ventures like Sony-BGM) could be used

We need sackboys with Galatasaray shirts ASAP... At the back they can write the number 19 and above it KEWELL.

If you are from europe check out the eu ps3 forums because there are community level design competitions which are pretty fun. The LBP community is pretty good there as well (there is even a diary from one of the community staff as they knit a sackboy). No virtual prizes or anything, just a bit of fun but if you like making levels be sure to check it out and join in!

should get some nice creations out of this

Just to let you know your top 2 ad boxes are 90% hidden behind the main content when I view the site in IE7, you might wanna fix that because you'll be missing out on some cash.
