Sony Denies Copying Non-Winning LBP Costumes For PSN Sale >

	Sony is apparently having issues with Little Big Planet again. Not the game's technology this time, or the PSN servers, but for plagiarism. There was a Sackboy costume design contest recently, and now users are claiming that Sony is copying designs from non-winning entries for PSN LBP download content. You can check the similarities at the link. Posters on the official forums have pointed out more than one uncanny similarity between the design postings and Sackboy official costumes. Of course, Sony community officials are claiming it is just a coincidence. We are sure the Sony art people did look at the entries though, and who can say if it affected them subconsciously? "this was always going to be a possibility when we ran the costumer competition - releasing new costumes which are similar in theme to ones that were entered," said the Sony rep. >Link

where are my sony pilgrims?

^^^Please STFU^^^ That just sounds b3yond gay. It's still 9 days till Thanksgiving, and those are the only pilgrims I wan't to hear about. How pathetic can you be to try and rally people to your cause on a videogame website. Don't you have some traffic to go play in???

i wonder if there is some clause in whatever contest that says that entries (costumes) become the property of Sony. If so, they're not really stealing anyway

probally right daveydz3, there not direct copies anyway only similar, i'd say sony have concept art for each of the costumes before the contest had submissions.

sony stealing an idea?....... never......
