I just got bored of it. The things you could go to where cool but that was it for me. Also some people just get obessed with it, and well start asking other people out in the game, either that or there prevs, either way, but really it just got boring and i would much rather play actually Video Games then Home. And truly even though it was free, it was still the worst thing I ever got.

I got a PS3 to play games. If I want to walk around and speak to people I don't know, I'll go to a bar.

This. I've tried Home here and there, and its cool for what it is. However, what it is is a social simulation. I already have plenty of social. No need to simulate.

Because it's lame. And it's all good when a guy avatar tries to grind on a female avatar, but it's not cool when a guy avatar tries to dance up on another guy avatar. Discrimination is rampant in HOME!

Because its boring and lame. I tried it one time when SE premiered a new trailer for FFXIII on HOME (why they chose that of all places to premiere a trailer is beyond me) and thought I'd mess around with it after the trailer was over and there was just nothing to do. I tried interacting with people and it was just lame.

Oh man, I do that all the time! You don't know how many people follow me around to announce that I'm "homophobic". It's damn hilarious how people treat the game. On topic, There's absoltely no one decent to talk to on Playstation Home. Most of the people on Home are coming from CoD games and want girlfriends.

Why would you ask why people don't like home, and then tell them they're wrong? :roll:

I don't like using Home because I'd much rather go somewhere in real life with my friends than walk around and talk to complete strangers.

I love Home, just dont use it that often. The KZ3 minigame was fun, like collecting costumes, and I usually check out the new HHG show at the theatre, I just wished it played in its own theatre so i dont have to wait for some useless podcast to finish before watching HHG.

I guess the quickest reply is that its just lame. I could elaborate on a terrible OL Community, etc, but it'd take entirely too long.

Well it does have games so i dont know what everyone is talking about, but still i find it rather boring. the games you do get arent exactly much fun, and speaking to random people you don't know with a keyboard that takes really long to type with (unless you have keyboard accessory), not really my kind of game.

Its very boring walking around at 0.05 km/h doing nothing. I just deleted it. Didn't do anything they claimed they it would. Its also pathetic and awkward to watch guys chase down a female avatar, that is probably a guy. A girl who is in home I bet chooses a male avatar. I set mine to a male, no one noticed me. I set it to female and guys were surrounding me, giving me gifts, inviting me to their playstation appartment all this kinda stuff. Never even notice my psn id is fourballs.... how feminine, people can be stupid - or just very desperate. Just makes me think of nerds at home, and really doesnt do well to hurt the sterotype people have on gamers. When a female avatar is around they cant use the software for what its actually for. What do they really think will come out of it, even if she is a female? What theyll get married? Its just pathetic.

In my opinion, it's boring. Though, I used to go on it when I first got my ps3.

Because it's a waste of time and hard drive space? It's nothing more than a limited clone of Second Life with a storefront for Sony to sell you virtual clothes and furniture for your avatar and their fake dwelling.

You're right, there's so much hate, but I love Home! If I don't feel like playing a game, I can just go on Home, chat to people about games or anything else, listen to music, watch movie trailer or whatever. And there is fun games on it too like SodiumOne MMO, Xi and the new Killzone one, and they update Home each week, and it's 100% FREE!

I find it incredibly boring, and a waste of space... I don't really understand why anyone would spend a lot of time with it. I mean, you spend a lot of money for a game console, and instead of playing the games you'd rather be socializing with random people you don't know, buying fake clothes, and doing whatever else it is you do on there? Aren't there lots of games like that on the internet already? I guess there might be some use, like finding friendly PSN friends, but otherwise, I can't figure out why anyone would be addicted to it.

yeah ive had my ps3 for over a year now and have tied home twice both times i couldn't stand to spend more than 10 min in it. It's absolutely pointless really and it also seems like one of those things where you have to spend a ton of real money to have any sort of fun and even then your still bored.

Um cause its boring! I went in there the other day to complete the KZ3 challenges they were actually pretty fun. Thats the only time i go on, to check out some of the new games. I remember when there was so much hype for Home, then like two days after it came outnearlyeveryone deleted it! Sony should pull the plug on Home, it was a big failure! Mainly because it had none of the feutures they said it would.

mediocore load times, mandatory installs for each area, little to no interactivity, teens who can't control their hormones and, in general, provides no entertainment for the user.

It had potential and still has but it doesn't contain any phenominal features or some features that were intially promised. Me personally i have brief occassions of using it but the loading was pretty mediocre.

I can't work out if your statement is sarcasm, irony, both... or if you're being serious. Now I really hope the last isn't true.
