Sony mystery game shows knitting, countdown

Another day, another website countdown to an announcement.
This time the culprit is Sony, and the site in question shows a man in a tuxedo. Knitting.
The page is called “amimono,” which means knitting in Japanese (per Andriasang) – thus the fella with his basket of yarn.
If you take the image on the site and brighten it up a bit like we did for the header, you see men in suits standing around the Godfather-looking fella.
At the time of this post, there are five days and seven hours left until the reveal. That puts it going live on September 2, the day before PAX Prime.
Until then, guess away at what it could be.

Its for LittleBigPlanet 2. A guy on the GT forums downloaded the SWF file and used a decompiler on it:

The ‘godfather’ is knitting a Sackboy.

I just don’t get why the teaser when the game is already known about. I guess I have no sense of “fun”.
I’ll be the old lady keeping the balls that land in my yard,when the times comes I bet.

why would anybody use a countdown to tease a game which has already been announced?

That’s probably because the game hasn’t been announced in Japan just yet. Wait for TGS for real reveals.
