It looks awesome. I was skeptical when I heard about it, but if Sony can deliver on everything they promise with it then it should be great.

If it's implimanted right this is going to be really great. Anyone who as already played MMOrpgs knows how good it's going to be.

Finally a great, original idea from Sony! Now let's hope it doesn't end up like the AOL stuff.

Can someone list the features that it is supposedly going to have over Xbox Live (if it's implemented correctly)? Other than price...no fanboy responses please. I can't watch the video on Gametrailers...at a public computer. :?

Life like avatars. Virtual house to live in. Hang out with other users outside or in your own pad. Customize your public and private space.  Play arcade games. Its basically an MMO version of XBOX live.

Wow sounds  like an amazing Idea for gaming, if they get this to work correctly it could possibly be a huge step in the right direction for online gaming for Sony.  They are definatly back in the game now with online if this is where they are heading.

That does look pretty good and a great idea by Sony. Very mmorpg-ish or sims-ish. I wonder how many might just hang out in that instead of playing games. Just to bad that the system still cost to god damn much for me to pick up as no games I'm interested in have been released to justify the price!

This is what I wish the Mii channel on the Wii as like. Not realistic graphics but a true meeting place. I guess Wii owners have to wait until MySims or perhaps the Wii version of Animal Crossing is released for something even remotely similar. Then again perhaps Nintendo might surprise us by doing something similar soon as they have things in place where they can do something like this if they wanted. Miis can already wander into other Wii systems, just need to create a central place like the Home system has and with Mii graphics it wouldn't take up to much to great a small place for owners..

Curious as to how big of a download this will be though. It won't be small from the looks of things. Also wonder if they'll put this Home system on a disc with a game or by itself for those that don't go online can have their own versions offline.

Playstation Home, eh? Sounds too community oriented for me.Jandurin
It's for people who can't socialise outside in real life they can do it on the PS3!! Lame i know but the actual interaction between playing games line and such is massive. It will far succeed LIVE but don't count on MS doing some uber upgrades to LIVE. Nintendo...there online system always sucked.

Based off of that i don't see the superiority, if anything it make them about equal. Virtual House? I guess it's welcome but it seems like more of a gimmick. The life like avatars are kind of cool...but what are we talking about when "Life Like" is concerned? Because you can put pictures of stuff as your Avatar on XBL.

tag_001


how in the hell is this like an MMOrpg? lol - please explain.

to me it's more like an online gaming platform with social networking and a pretty graphical UI.

and it's hardly original, it's actually a flat-out combination of the networks on XBL and Wii/Mii with a few obvious extras. i.e. instead of playing an arcade title you walk to the arcade machine. personally i prefer the less social XBL method.

I think its cool, but I still think XBOX Live is better. This seems really great in concept, but I think it will leave a headache when you got tons of people walking around! I think Mircrosoft's achievement system still owns this, I'm glad its free, NOW MICRO MAKE LIVE FREE!!

Very true.

Once the ohhs and ahhs are done the whole price point will start to get noticed I hope. Looks nice all the same but the cost and price for this "gift" is going to be a swift kick to people I think.

Definitely.....I can see massive Micro transaction now...The new virtual Jordans,Leather sofas, etc  ...It's free but SONY will make a killing with the micro transactions......Two thumbs up to Sony for making a great looking virtual Identity for gamers.

I'm guessing you'll probably run into alot of obnoxious kids during in and out of your "virtual house" as well.

It seems like it's a well rounded service (again, if it's implemented well) but alot of it seems like more of a gimmick than anything. Whereas XBL is an actual online service where games are the focus it seems like Sony is trying to make an online service where Social interactions are the focus.

it will unify the whole online experience. Xbox does this just not this in-depth. E-commerce will be kinda neat seeing as you will able to walk into a threater within your PS3 and buy stuff, like Xbox but Xbox is not a PS Home service.
