ive always wanted to go online and be in a world where u can walk around without a cape and talk with other people, a bit like grand theft auto except more controlled.

well sony has introduced this thing called home and you can log onto a virtual world where u can walk to movie theatres and watch the movie trailers, instead of it just being selected and u view it.









ive always wanted a virtual world like this, hmmm dreams of the moment he gets his ps3 an ditchs life

While i admit that looks interesting, it looks like total shammage, and all of the people talking reminds me of runescap... Oh God... RUN AWAY!!!!!

Also... who wants to type?

Can you talk on it?

And what if the Movie Theater is full?

Also, it will get boring after a while... just so you know...

Still, Playstaion home looks pretty cool. Seems to take features of Nitendo’s Mii, and Xbox360
s achivement points and rolls it into one. Plus it’s free, can’t go wrong there.

I’ll just stick with Live... you know, being able to listen to music, talk to multiple friends, download demos and content, play a game, etc all at once...

I’ve done it before... >_>

yeah but its more than just moving the cursor to the selected movie or something and then watching it, on the ps3 ya watch it at a time with everyone else(may be a time) and theres that large croud of people that walk out of the cenima adding a realistic feel to it, and becuase people are the players not ai it just ads so much more feel to it.

Yep Sony usually copies from just one company but with this they’ve copied not only from Nintendo but MS as well and combined it. Guess that little combo was bound to happen sooner or later.

o come on a copy? there are lots of services that other downloadable content and lots of games that offer customizable charecters, but they combined it in a good way and the ps3 owners can only benifit by it

I like the home system but it’s a deliberate copy and shows Sony’s desperation. And yes this has been done in games before but does that relate at all to hardware. NO so that’s above the point.

i wouldn’t say desperation, i mean its a pretty good idea if you ask me, something desperate would be to put down other companies

A perfect place for young PS3 owners like little timmy to get led to the park by a rapist with promises of candy and sweets.
