It's almost here... I know, we've been knocking at the Sony door and no-one has been in, but the promise is out there and they can't take it back - Home will be released this year.
After watching the video, it's obvious that the community has been unfairly judging Home, calling it a Nintendo or Second Life rip-off... This couldn't be further from the truth.
Tripwire Interactive's Killing Floor debuted 15 years ago, birthing a critically acclaimed series and a new publishing arm.

I knew all of those things. I'll add one that many dont know (if you are a hardware person you do). you CAN actually swap bluray drives between systems. The drives themselves are interchangeable but the board that interfaces is not. So anyone who has a dead optical drive can just get a replacement and swap the interface board and be back to reading discs in no time. I've had to do this myself on both a 20gb B01 as well as a 40gb L01 unit.
you can also replace the spinning hdd with an SSD for improved (not life changing) performance as well as quieter and cooler system reliability. The physical spinning drives draw more current and generate heat as a result. Using an SSD means no moving parts and thus will have less current draw and reduced fan noise from not having to spin as much as usual to offset any heat generated by the spinning hdd.
I never even thought of that. If I can ever track down a reasonable true backward compatibility one the first thing I'll do is ssd it up.
Still one of my favorite Playstations next to the Playstations that came before it and after it.
You missed some great games then. Especially the variety. Ps3 lacked compared to before and after.
It had great games but it lacked compared to every other ps system. The variety went out the window. Game budgets got higher that's when developers stopped taking chances. Indies weren't quite going full speed like the ps4 generation. It's my least favorite of all the Playstation. Also jrpgs disappeared like a mf, there were some but sht compared to previous gens.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
awesome video...i love the fact that sony has taken what online gaming is now and instead of just replicating it in their own little way they are taking it another step with home and are really innovating and establishing what online gaming will be for the future
that wasn't boring at all !
im really losing interest in home !
i hope it doesn't get in the way !
it just seems such a slow way of doing things !
Not interested so much in HOME but I must say that was very impressive gaming community display.
exactly like second life to me
... furniture placement OMFG that's sooo cool
