Unlikely as Home is SCEE and not SOE
SOE otoh has lots of stuff to discuss at a conference like this.

was thinking the same thing...SOE might talk about upcoming MMOs and some downloadable PSN games...but thats it...

these articles are getting lame...Sony isn't going to announce anything big until at the very least their own Sony Gamers Day or whatever that is...which was in May last year...probably the same this year...but is most likely the time for a few trailers (killzone 2 and Resistance 2 hopefully), and more info on Home...Sony already stated that they save their own announcments for their own conventions...except for E3...which will probably be crazy this year...

lots on the line for everyone...

3.4 - Why are you reading about Home?
Let's be real, no matter what it is you're not going to like it. So why all the interest?

Mart you are not 'waiting'...and 1.5 years ago?...idiot...it was just announced in February of 2007...like..a year ago...for a fall 07 release...and it was delayed until mid 2008...

thats one delay...shouldn't you be at your own website dropping that excuse bomb all over everyone lately...it hasn't been an exactly positive last few months for the 360...I am surprised you have time to be wasting on N4G when your own website is on the verge of collapsing...

Well you're pretty wrong on that one. YOu can accuse all you want, but I have one account and one account only. Go ask the mods on IP etc.

I don't care about accounts. I don't care about bubbles. And go try and react on my post what it says. It is reality, right? Its not that I am making up the delay, Sony IS delaying it over and over again. That's not my fault.

And well, you could have multiple accounts, as the Sony Protection Group has taken over this site.

again...they delayed it once mart...1 time...at TGS 07 SCE announed that it was pushed back to Q2 2008...that was the first and only time its been delayed so far...the release window was slated for late spring/summer 2008...

the service was announced just over a year ago...announced...as in nobody new about it before hand...

so to answer your question...yes you are making things up...you are making it sound like its been delayed more than once...which it hasn't...and we all know that you are only in here to attempt to throw punches...

the mods of N4G made a specific 'zone' for people exactly like you...

Doubt it, it's more than likely about The Agency or Ramayan 3392AD (I hope for the latter) since it's SOE.

I bet its about a few online games, but mainly about the new VoIP service they are going to release.

"...who have no clue of what an incredible gaming experience 360 has to offer."

Yeah, that's right... RRoD: what an incredible gaming experience, in fact, huge experience of taking your money into garbage.

This could be an ad to 360:

"Buy your 360 now. Mount it on your home lcd 42'', start your 360, clean back and enjoy the lights turn red... life's beautiful and your money too. Don't forget, M$ loves you."

LOOOOOL
