How? Am I going to load up my virtual guy to turn on an imaginary stereo in my virtual apartment, or am I just going to pick an MP3 from the Cross Media Bar?
Am I going to go online in the browser and just watch trailers online, or am I going to have my virtual guy walk around for a few minutes, sit down in a virtual theater, stare at a bunch of very real and annoying ads, and then watch the trailer?
Am I going to meet up with my friends quickly in a game, or am I going to have my virtual guy walk around my virtual apartment to my virtual phone and "invite them over" - wait for them to come to my virtual apartment, and then we'll all sit down at my virtual couch to play my virtual PS3 (wait aren't we already playing PS3 in real life - confusing) and then it will launch the game we want to play? Ughh...
Home sucks. You can't interact with people like in Second Life, yet they want you to spend real money to get clothes, items, et cetera - and replace the match loading screens with a bunch of ads you have to walk past as your virtual guy before you even get to play a game.
Sorry - it's JUST AN INTERFACE - it doesn't improve the lackluster PSN in any way.

[QUOTE="JimmyT2"]Home is overrated and looks boring. Just watch that video to see what I mean. ps3gen
I admit it, Home looks pretty interesting.
If they did the same thing with Xbox Live, I would not be complaining.
True home was cool, but sony, 'where are the games' is what i want to know.Haziqonfire

I'm sorry. You were saying something? My eyes were pulled to your sig and I've been staring there ever since. ;)Face the reality in second life, Home owned.

Home looks interesting. It's as though Second Life and The Sims just got married and had a baby or something.
But the baby isn't that special because it's too much like its parents.
(I think all babies are special, really, but I'm talking about electronics here)

Maybe you should read the FAQ. It said exactly what he said. :roll:

These fanboys like to dismiss you without ever reading anything you've said. I've watched all the videos, read all the FAQs, there's nothing more to say about it. Home is the visual interface for PSN. That's it. You can't interact with other characters physically - so none of that Second Life crap - you can't do anything in Home that you can't do in the Cross Media Bar (well unless you consider putting you curtains in your virtual apartment to be "something")... look when I want Barbie's Dreamhouse Playset I'll buy it at Toys R Us. Home doesn't add anything new to PSN other than exposure to ads - great for Sony's bottom line - but what does it give you?PSN is shaping up to be better than XBL. I have XBL and its pretty good but PSN is sounding better. Soulja_West

Long live Home !!!
I cant wait 2 years from now, when Home comes a huge success...and all Lems admit to being owned and destroyed.. While we are customizing millions of different things in Home.. Lems are putting on a new face plate...
True home was cool, but sony, 'where are the games' is what i want to know.Haziqonfire
LittleBigPlanet is a game, and it owned every game at GDC...the end
Long live Home !!!

I hear there is going to be some massive victories for cows in 2 years time. However I did hear the exact same talk from cows about 2 years ago when the PS3 was being shown at E3 2005 :| You have been waiting a long time for your victory and deserve it!

Home has already been confirmed to have no purpose.
Media Bar has the same functionality. Quiker, easier. No ads. No sims.
Even Gamespot said that Sony seems to be focusing their energy in the wrong direction.

Home has some neat features but seriously, how does this enchance the online for games much? Time should be spent playing games not walking around in a virtual town.
agreed 100%.[QUOTE="jack244"]QFT[QUOTE="WIIRUS"][QUOTE="RKFS"]X-Box Live is more about the games with none of the Home nonsense... johnusabeis

agreed 100%. You're not even walking around a virtual town - it's just chat rooms with limited numbers of people - strangers - and you maybe hope one of them has the same games as you or that they're not a pedophile. To top it off - since YES I READ THE FAQS ON THE SONY WEBSITE - this stuff is instanced - when you're not online people can't visit your apartment, you're not able to go "oh yeah, check out my cool trophy" because it's not there unless you're signed in... There is NOTHING to HOME - Sony sat down and said "how can we get more advertising dollars" and home is what they came up with. It's an ad-fest. LittleBigWorld has NOTHING to do with Home, people are getting them confused. LittleBigWorld? A game - just what the PS3 needs more of - Home? Useless "meta-content" that the PS3 has too much of already.[QUOTE="johnusabeis"][QUOTE="jack244"]QFT[QUOTE="WIIRUS"][QUOTE="RKFS"]X-Box Live is more about the games with none of the Home nonsense... subrosian

Too much of a hassle, I'd just rather use a simple menu thant run around in a 3d world.Â
And the fact that it's free should have u more worried than anything. Cows, u get what u pay for.
Everything in Home is accessible through the XMB. Home is optional. Home is free. Jealousy. Ouch. What a feeling.Home looks stupid. It's just taking the 360 dashboard and turning it into the Sims or something. Too much of a hassle, I'd just rather use a simple menu thant run around in a 3d world.

Yes it owns.... just like your sig.
Anyway, people shouldn't use Home as ownage and stuff. It'a very cool feature but many PS3 fans are going overboard with this.
^ Listen here. This person is wise.Yes it owns.... just like your sig.
