Sony and Toyota have teamed up to offer gamers the chance to win a brand new Sony Bravia 3D HDTV along with a PlayStation Move hardware bundle, and all you have to do is download and play a specific map on LittleBigPlanet 2 then crate your own level from it.
When you head online and download the level entitled “LittleBigPrius 2”, you then use the collected items to build your own LittleBigPlanet Prius-inspired level. Once you have created your masterpiece, simply name it “Prius (then your level’s name)”, and Sony Computer Entertainment of America will listen to the community feedback before picking the top 10 most popular levels.
Once the top 10 is selected, five will be chosen, and of those five, four will receive a PlayStation Move Sports Champions bundle. The grand prize winner will then receive a 46” Sony Bravia 3D HDTV with a PlayStation Move hardware bundle.
While in itself, the contest is interesting, perhaps more importantly is what it signifies. Sony has confirmed its commitment to growing the PlayStation Network, and this might be the start of a larger campaign to lure people into interacting with the online communities on the various PlayStation devices. Besides, free 3D HDTVs are cool.
The contest runs through March 8 at 11:59pm, and the winners will be announced in May.
