"Dude, this place is quiet," says one avatar, a rather generic-looking 20-something guy as we lurk on one side of the Home central plaza, watching virtual people go by on what appears, on my television screen, to be a sunny day in a modern town center. "This could get boring fast," texts another in agreement, a speech balloon popping up over his head.
Benjamin Rivers has suggested that it is “totally possible” for two of his titles — Alone With You and Home — to be ported to Nintendo Switch.
I recently published an article about beating my Steam backlog by getting organised and the first game I’ve completed with this new approach is Home.
I chose Home not because of its production values or reviews, but because, well, it’s short. I needed a game to start my new approach on the right foot and read that Home takes less than two hours to beat.
Whatever my reasons for finally installing Home, I found it to be an enjoyable yet flawed title.
Handheld Players takes a look at the PS Vita new releases in February 2018.
I've not used Home in awhile i don't really see the upside of it.
Take the phone a friend option and add it to the XMB so you can call friends while there in-game ,also take the instant messenger style talking and add that to the XMB so its not like sending emails back and forth that wouldn't take years and it would improve the ps3 ten fold unlike this crap
Hmm, wonder if he realized that Home is in beta at the moment (and maby for a couple of years more). But hes right, it is not the funniest place to spend in front of your television. But who cares?
Its free and you dont have to use it(it´s not the default XMB)
For people without social skills, I guess Home could be a little intimidating.
It seems a lot of people either have homophobic issues about talking to guys, or can't help but rudely hit on girls.
It's amazing how quickly you can meet and socialize with others if you act half decent.
The pool and bowling alone are worth it.. For the longest time ive wanted a good pool and chess game to come on the PSN but now they stepped it up a notch and included a very good pool and chess games within Home and I love it. You guys that say Home are pointless might as well say posting on this site is pointless..
Home is for social networking, if you go on forums and post your little comments like you do on here, then Home is pretty much the same thing only in 3d, its meant to be a 3d social networking app meant for meeting and chatting with other gamers when you dont feel like playing a game at the moment.
I like Home, for the nights that im bored and i really dont feel like playing any games but i also dont feel like turning off my PS3 either, thats where Home comes in, i hop into home play some pool, bowling.. Icebreaker etc and meet cool gamers.
I have a 360 and better than anything Xbox live offers at the moment.
The only reason its being hated is because its Sony and no matter, what people will have these impossible standards that no console company can live up to..
Dont you guys find it odd that the 360's avatars where praised and it was a blatant rip off of Miis but yet they say Home is pointless?! I mean atleast the avatars have some purpose on Home, you use them to represent you and you can actually walk around, communicate, shop, play games etc.. What are the point of 360 avatars?! can someone answer that?! You cant move them, you cant walk around you can just dress them
