I think this program will revolutionize how we get together and interact before and after matches with our online friends.

It's not a far stretch from SOE's baby EQ in a sense that I used to get on just to talk to my friends, maybe we'd camp a mob while we were talking, but we just got on to talk sometimes. If they come out with the MMO's they are talking about right now, it will be invaluable to boost the sales of those games. It's a great idea IMO and I can't wait.

Sony would stop talking about Home so much and let the anticipation sort of slow down before ramping it all back up in November/December so we can get excited about something imminent, not something far into the future. I wish for something like the excitement surrounding 2.4 right now. They told us about it months ago, but now they are hyping it up ridiculously as we get closer to the actual drop date.

It will have a HUGE impact on the Social and Community aspect of finding other people who enjoy what you enjoy.

I also think it needs to get polished up asap, features need to be added (Gamer-centric) and they need to release it. As Reploid24 said, "How time can lessen the excitement." and to a point he is defeintly right. Still it doesn't mean I won't use home, infact i'll most likely use it any time the ps3 is on, JUSt because.... WHY NOT! lol. If i can make online friends like i made wayyyy backin the days of Ultima Online, then it will be a priceless addition.

I think HOME is SONY's Forward Thinking at its best, I also think they underestimated the difficulty of getting it right. But They will deliver. Sony always does.

I cant wait to see what gets done with this... there is so many options for it ... I can't wait...

Also the rumor that MS is making or wanting something similar is great news... Because the more competition between sony and ms the better for gamers on both sides of the fence...

does anyone care about this pipe dream anymore?

I mean who doesn't know by now that home was just an attempt to get attention by Sony, you can't really expect it to be worth crap when it comes out in 2013, not if it's free.

The best thing they could do is the home to game transition. Without that Home would've sucked. I like the sims-like customization of your house that will be a good time killer.

And the way it loads new environments is both extremely clever AND visually appealing. The menus actually have some cute animation, and I love the mannerisms and nuances that they've added to the characters.

Can't wait to use it this Fall. =D

Not really sure how much I'll use it, I'm more interested on the features regarding online MP...althouhg I'm looking forward to watch E3 shows live or any other event, or watch a demo/trailer/movie with my friends, or maybe stream music, etc, etc...there are some features for everybody...I don't criticize the rest of the features I'll probably never use because:

1. It's free so I choose whatever and whenever I want to use it without feeling SONY is getting my money for something I don't use

2. This will add one more category to the variation you'll find on the PS3, the key of a great gaming platform is to offer something for everybody

3. All those micro-transaction and ads will keep PSN cost free, I'm planning myself to buy stuff once in a while, it will feel good to know that by doing that I'm helping to keep the service for free for others than might not have a credit card or the cash, like kids.

It had a catchy tune and the editing made things seem a lot smoother than I bet they are at this point. Still, I have faith that Sony will be able to improve the load times and stuff until things become more seamless.

I truly think this app is going to turn out to be an incredible boon for the PS3 and for the gaming community at large. At first I really didn't think it was going to be THAT big a deal, a fun novelty, but nothing as all consuming as I'm starting to think it's going to be. What really changed my mind is when I read (can't find the article) that Sony was considering putting online poker (or other gambling) as an option and it made me realize how big of a digital marketplace Home could become. I'm sure virtual stores will begin to pop up everywhere and various clans and groups will evolve around specific games and even specific hobbies. If the PS3 does indeed last 10 years I can see Home evolving into a juggernaut.

And, by the way, please just expect a butt load of advertising. It will be there. For sure. So just expect it.

Some try to say this is overhyped. We watch a video from a conference and now SONY is overhyping. SONY is trying to build this up in the business community. The disadvantage of something free is they need to make money in some respect. That can only come with advertising. Now they need to get said community up on this to feel their advertising dollars should be put into HOME.

I am in the Beta also and I am less than impressed so far. I think it's funny you have two guys talking it up so much and whenever I participate in the HOME environment I am the only one there. Yesterday there were three others participating and yet they had Z's above their character. The only thing that will make this successful is community involvement. If they don't have attractions to keep peoples attention for more than a few minutes most people aren't going to bother with HOME. It takes more than pool tables and having your own Summer Home to make it fun.

This is for the xbutt that walks into this little section of news.

You really want it dont you?
You know its gonna be crazy right?
Are you secretly saving up for the ps3 yet?
Are you waiting for the holidays?

i say its time for you to stand up & take a ps3 home soon.
There are many ways to get a ps3, choose the best way for you.

I only know 2 types of people that have xbox360's gamer.
1.) North american, This guy is either cramped into a small apartment, in debt & cant afford to get his own ps3.
2.) United kingdom, For some reason this guy wants to compete with dumb americans because he want to live there because he thinks his meaningless life in the U.K. will be better in America. This guy is one of those abadoned guys who have a non existant life and his own family cant really stand him.
Xbox live has a whole laggy room filled with these two types mainly.

Arent you tired of it.
Are you really looking forward to Fable 2?
You playing a walkman with tapes and Im trying to tell you about a Ipod!
Get with the time you dinosaur. Hurry up and trade that xbox360 before its too late!

I for one am looking forward to this. I think that as long as Sony keeps this user friendly and stable, that it could help sell more PS3's and be just as successful as Xbox Live.

Here's to hoping (crosses fingers)
