IGN: LittleBigPlanet Beta Codes Giveaway

We have a few thousand beta codes to hand out, and since there are only so many of us in the office, we might as well give them to you, our faithful readers.

Getting a code is pretty easy, but not as simple as hitting "Send" on a form email. See, Sony doesn't necessarily need to test for the number of people online, but rather what happens when a ton of people create a bunch of cool content.

So, to get a code, simply hit the email link below (beyond@ign.com) and send us your idea for a level. It could even be a sentence or two. So long as we see that you're interested in creating something, we'll probably send you a code. Note that we don't have an infinite supply, so it's based on a first-come-first-served type deal.

Note that the subject line must read LBP Beta Code or your submission won't get read.

i kinda surprised though, i've been in every beta from the beginning. i've been in Home for over a year now.

i thought they would've sent me a LBP code by now.

No problem. I just feel kinda bad since I'm kinda giving away chances t0 all of my friends on the IGN boards. But it would end up on N4G eventually, so....

EDIT: IGN's Chris Roper posted this on the Insider boards:

And FYI, I'll be sending out a bunch today before I head home, and then resuming on Monday. But if you've already sent an email, you should get a code in the next couple hours (I have to send them out manually).

I hope I didn't ruin my chances I had to re-send my email because I didn't have LBP Beta Code for the subject line. So you guys want to share what your ideas was for the levels?

i sent 2 emails aswell, so we're both in the same boat!
my first idea was a 'forts' idea where each player has a fort and a catapult to take the other guys base. (not very original i know)
my second idea was basically a space level full of rockets and flaming meteorites and UFOs etc (again, not very original. i wanted to keep it short so i could send it off ASAP!

sandip787 lol my idea was based off the worms game where you use cannons to take out other peoples territories. We must have watched the same level with the cannons and gotten inpsiration from the same level.

I sent my idea off. Hopefully I get in this time taking all my time up refreshing n4g boards and other chat rooms for new betas. Its certainly exciting but most disappointing when you miss out so many times.

Email sent.

I just had some kind of sick inspiration moment and wrote 20 lines of awesome. Must be the power of sack ancestors.

Now. If 10 000 people participated on the GS beta giveaway, IGN will probably get just as much. Maybe less! This story isn't on their front page! Less people will see it!. They say they have a few thousands of keys. I'd say 3000 since they're more important than GS. That makes about 1 chance out of 3 to get into the beta...

awesome!

never before man, not home, not MGO, resistance, hell not even KZ2. I guess its because

2. its not available through Qore, or preorder, just these "hurry the hell up and get em" giveaways.

Yeah, it's fairly exclusive, unpredictable, and everyone who's in it has been raving about it. Reminds me of the golden ticked from Willy Wonka.
