YES IT IS TIIIIIIIIIIZZZZZZZZZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHTTTTTT. CANT WAIT. BUT HOW WILL THEY BE ABLE TO FIT THE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE THAT WILL MOST LIKELY OWN THIS GAME. SEPERATE VIRTUAL CITIES. HOW ABOUT A VIRTUAL COUNTRY, WITH JOBS AND WHAT NOT THAT WOULD BE COOLKEM92
i wazs wondering the same exact thing. casue if you have people on your firends list but they seperate them onto different servers then u cant play with them. it shoudl be interesting to see how they will fit everyone in one world and not have it look like a stop motion movie

Imagine, if it was split into different servers, it could mean different cities. Then, when u want to go to the another city (server), u use a virtual train. THAT WOULD BE SO SICKKKKK.
Then, the amount of time it takes to reach the different city (server), it would mean the amount of time it takes to enter that server. THIS MY FRIENDS IS AN AWESOME IDEA.
[QUOTE="KrazyC18"][QUOTE="aero4444"][QUOTE="joevfx"][QUOTE="kevass007"]he waited for the ps3 to come out num nuts, instead of buying a 360joevfx
how do u know , all he says is he waited for the PS3. that could mean he got it ahwile ago or hasnt gotten it yet
true there if he didnt get it yet, he would say WAITING for the ps3, not WAITED maybe, but you are talkign about the grammer of a poster here. lol....good point xD
But you have to wonder, how the hell is sony doing all this for free? They must be loosing some cash... Wouldn't most of you gladly pay like ~$50 a year for a service like "home"? Should sony charge for it?

You obviously didn't view the keynote speech in its entirety. The basic stuff is free, but if you want premium stuff in your apartment you have to pay if you wanna play. This is Sony's virtual reality cash cow. They will make tons of moolah from that alone.

Everyone is allowed to go to the shopping mall to hang out with friends for free. You are allowed to park for free. You are allowed to chat for free.
However... You have to look at ads. You have to pay for food. You have to pay to watch a movie. You have to pay to buy a book. You have to pay to play games in the arcade.
I think Sony is monetizing on a shopping mall model (free entry) not the Disney theme park "Pay to enter" model.

You probably didnt see all the screens in that place. ADS ADS ADS. I personaly wouldnt mind a snicker ads or some godaddy.com ads :D
I'm just as glad I got mine at launch, but here's something worth a decent laugh. Someone on tv.com just said Resistance was running with 85-90% of the PS3's total power.

All the promises in the world can't beat the facts....Sony is a monster at gaming.

Hmm...I'm not sure where I stand with this. I think the idea of being able to go to a virtual movie theatre with friends and buy clothes and stuff sounds great, but I'm interested in pricing. I mean if they're charging the same price to go to a movie, then franklly I'd rather go to a theatre, get popcorn, and put my feet up with some of my friends or put my arm around my girlfriend's shoulder. Again, I like the idea, but personally I'd rather pick up clothes or a movie ticket and physically wear them. The thing I do like is being able to get achievements for playing games, and if sony somehow gets past the whole "poster/trophy for the room" gag and rewards the gamer with clothing/movie/arcade credit, I can see it really picking up. Plus it would be good business: more people buy PS3 games to unlock more achievements for their avatar (worked for the 360's achievement system). I see great potential in this as a way of creating a big social network, but focusing on movie theatres and clothing is not how I see the future of community gaming. I hate malls to begin with, and the idea spending time on my $600 (+tax and the extra controller) PS3 shopping and attempting to track down girls (how many of them actually own a PS3?) is something I really don't want to do. Plus I'm going to have the fear that the girls walking around are guys. I think Sony has the chance of creating something great with this as long as they use it to integrate games and create a community based on those games...shopping and movies, thanks but I'll stick with the real thing.

That's what I hope they do to, it would be a much better idea for players to earn "credits" of some kind when they unlock certain trophies so they can spend it on things, but there can also be microtransactions for people who would rather do that.

He was using a shopping mall as an example of how Home is.. ie you can go there for free you can chat and hang around for free but you buy stuff that you want or you pay in the arcades etc. oh by the way Home has an arcade section with the pool tables and the bowling and you do pay to get more games to play so he's not trolling or making false statements in any way.
I wish they would've explained how the movies is going to work. I mean do we just put a dvd into our PS3 and everyone watches it or to we have to upload the movies onto the PS3?
