So, theres no warning when you are about to make a purchase? It doesnt ask you to accept the purchase of the articles that are not provided free?raven_squad

No there is not. I learned that the hard way. :(

i dont mean to be rude, but that is a lie, i have purchased a few things and they do tell u and warn u about wat u are purchasing, either ur just trollin(again dont mean to be rude) or it was an honest mistake u and ur son made and didnt know about. its kinda impossible to just click on the pants or shirts ur gettin and thats it ur automatically charged, u go through few steps and u have to click the CONFIRM BUTTON, before u get it, so either was a mistake u did or ur trollin

I am not trolling, I wrote: "Aside for the fact that we accidently bought 'em online..." It was a mistake. But an easy mistake for a 10 year old to make due to the interface. Sure I could watch my son like a hawk, but I am just not that kind of Dad. But the point I was making is that you don't get much for 49 cents. I find it silly they even offered cargo shorts for 49 cents at all at this point in time. Anyway, I just revisited Home today, I went to the bowling alley: all lanes OCCUPIED. I went to play pool: all lanes OCCUPIED. I submit: Home is a failure at this point. So I signed off and said good by to my cargo shorts wearing 49 cent avatar.

So, a few days ago my son and I patiently downloaded Home onto our PS3 and customized an avatar. Within a few minutes I went back to playing Rainbow Six Raven Shield on my PC and I noticed an an email coming in. The email informed me that I had just been charged 49 cents for: CARGO SHORTS by Sony. My son had been fooled into the purchase while dressing his avatar.

Of course, I did not complain about what he was doing, but we both complained that Sony was trying to make money on this terrible Wii/Second Life customization scheme for your avatar. I mean: CARGO SHORTS for 49 cents? This is the dumbest thing I ever heard of. Aside for the fact that we accidently bought 'em online.

Originally I was excited by the idea of Home, but after seeing it I realized that it is just an online shopping website dressed up with empty promises of hooking up and conferring with friends; and playing mini-games. And some weak attempts at advertising

When you walk around you will realize that there is a ton of empty retail spaces and that this mall is looking like it will be going belly up soon just like Hellgate: London and the soon to be defunct, Age of Conan.

The mini-games suck. There is no significant content on Home to keep you interested or entice you to come back. Except maybe for another pair of CARGO SHORTS.
