Halloween Storyboard Comp - The Shortlist

A big thank you to everyone who popped by the Halloween party and a bigger thank you to all who submitted storyboards and entered our competition.

They all made us laugh and we have narrowed them down to a shortlist of five.

Congratulations to (in no particular order) DanTheMan121, Mattiebo123, mango1234, ratbag69 and xjonny84x.

We have a PSPGo for one lucky winner and the rest of you will each receive a very special virtual t-shirt.

Now the fun part. YOU decide who wins.

Posters are now up around Home Square and in Home Theatre where anyone can see the shortlist and vote for their favourite. Please beware you can only vote for each entry once.

Good luck to everyone. Voting will last for 7 days and we will be announcing the winner at the end of next week.

Halloween Comes to Playstation Home

We are going to be working with Sony on a few events over the coming months in PlayStation Home, the first of which is kicking off this Saturday. Yup, you guessed it. It's Halloween!

All details have been released over on the PlayStation EU Blog but for convenience, they are all below too...

First up, you’re all cordially invited to PS Home’s very own Halloween party! Taking place from 6-8pm (GMT) on 31st October 2009 within the Burn Zombie Burn space, all appropriately dressed attendees will get a (trick or) treat upon arrival. There are five exclusive new costumes available in Threads especially for this event – including a werewolf, Frankenstein, a witch, a ghost and his and her skeleton suits. Check out the screenshots of these delightful outfits below:

If you’re wearing one the above costumes when you enter the space you’ll net yourself a very special (ghoulish) Reward. If you’re not, just pull on the costumes when you’re in the space and jump on the enormous red button to receive your prize.

And if that wasn’t enough, we’re running Home’s first official storyboard competition alongside the event. Using the Home camera (available through the Menu Pad) we’re asking you to supply five images with captions and upload them to our Flickr group. The wittiest five storyboards will go on display in Home Square and then you will decide who wins!

The lucky winner will receive a brand spanking new PSPgo

Full entry details can be found here.

Oh, and be sure to check out the commerce point in the Burn Zombie Burn space, something very special may be lurking in there….
