The sackboy plushie market is gonna be crazy.

I'm gonna buy like ten of them.

I hope they have limited edition ones, like Kratos and Nariko for real, not just in-game assets.

that report in the OP says that LBP is going to be a downloadable game. Please, could someone reassure me that it will be coming out on Blu-Ray too?

on topic, I think it will make a great mascot. I just wish they'd change the name from Sackboy. it sounds...well...a little rude imo...slightly less rude than ScrotumKid

RUMOUR ,they are going to release it on the PSN and let people create a bunch of levels, and then in the future they will put it on blu-ray disc filled with all the best user created levels made.

which sounds very cool

While it isn't a bad choice I see this confusing more consumers than anything.
