I own a 360 and PS3 and I admit that when Home was first announced a year or 2 ago I was one of those that was super hyped about it and even thought it would end Xbox live's dominance in the online gaming world. I was a very very big supporter of Home and even up to a couple months ago I was telling everyone to stop complaining about the delays because it will be well well worth it, but now thats changed.. Ive been patient long enough with Sony and the way they have handled the Home roll out is a complete disaster.

I mean lets reflect on this for a second, Home was announced over 1 year ago not only that but it was promised to be out that same year by no later than Holiday of 07, well look where we are now.. Holiday of 2008, 1 year later and not only do we not have Home, we dont even STILL have a release date for it? really sony? I mean think about this for a second.. Home was announced and PROMISED to arrive by end of last year, its been literally one year later and not EVEN A RELEASE DATE HAS BEEN OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCED!  i mean sure we have a beta and God only knows what the requirements are to get in that Beta, first it was being a annual Qore subscriber then it was being a PSU member, then it was based on how much you purchase of the PSN store and THEN it was based on how much you game online to determine if you could just get into the beta!!

I mean come on!  What really drove me to think this way was how amazing Xbox has been in handling the new Xbox experience roll out, I mean if you think about it the new xbox experience is more complex then Home is and they are releasing it right on schedule. I mean with this new Xbox update is completly changing the whole interface, home is just a downloadable app.  The bottom line is this, this is not fanboy talk.. this is mad sony loyal customer talk that keeps getting the run around on Home and its supposed release date.

LOL...well, I own both. Someone stated that it would be released the same date as the NXE. As you state, it is not official. You made a very interesting point that I realized when E3 passed and the announcement came about the NXE. Your right, Its not just an app, Its like they did the entire thing over. If it does drop the same date as NXE it will be the end of your fustration. I really didnt get hype about home because I purchased my PS3 after E3....but for those who have waited for over a year. I really hope its worth it. IMO...its funny as heck.

I never cared about it, I thought it was a weird and confusing idea that I would never really care enough to actually use.

I never kept up with Home, but I was surprised when I got my PS3 and it still wasn't out.

I thought they said October of this year a long time ago, shouldn't they be done testing it already? It looked almost finished from the latest update.

Did'nt really care for it. Kind of a waste of money and time tbh. They should focus on something more important.

Put it on the list of things that will never see the light of day alongside Huxley, the next Duke Nukem, and that unnamed Team ICO project cows are hyping.

Well all interest is lost by now.

As much fun it would be to rub it in, I feel real bad for cows that were promised so much, and Sony just shat on their faces.Theres no chance of it coming out around the time NXE goes online because that rolls out next week. It's not an app you can chose to turn on, you pretty much are forced to use it, but its user friendly and doesn't get in your way.

I get the same feeling from Home as I did LBP. Like a year ago everyone was so hyped about LBP and everyone said "Oh man I'm getting that on day one. Its a must have' , then as the release date got closer everyone was saying , ' Yeah i'm not that interested in LBP, I never was.' And the numbers show. It is selling well but not like everyone said it would a year ago. It's the same feeling with Home. It's sad, and I feel real bad for cows. All I can say is "just wait".

Sony just needs to make sure that when it does release the severs don't implode on themselves like it did with SOCOM and LBP. You would be even more angry TC if it did in fact launch only to have massive server problems. Give it some time and we'll see what happens.

i've never cared about home. for that matter, i'm really not interested in the XBL revamp coming up, either. honestly, i don't know why sony doesn't fix just a few gripes about PSN (global invite lists, XMB, private chat, more user-friendly interface). if they did, they would have an online service comparable to XBL that is also free.

I don't really see how the NXE is more complex than Home to be honest. We know it's coming before the end of the year, probably mid-December.

I never cared, I always said it will be cool on the first week, then it will get boring. Something like the NXE is better IMO. Focus on building the dashboard, instead of overdoing it and making it like the sims.

 QFT. I am happy with XBL and even happier with what is to come for XBL. I stopped trying to stay excited for PSN (I have both), barely play my PS3 at all anymore, so I don't care much at all.

Who cares about all this HOME and NXE crap.. its nice that NXE allows me to put games on the harddrive, but thats about the only feature I intend to use, luckily most games already do it on the PS3, I pop in games, play them and thats about it, if I want trailers and stuff I can use the PC..

Home... I seem to remember hearing something about it.  It's been so long I can't remember what it is...? :lol:

It'll be cool when/if it ever comes out.

Meh, i honestly don't care for Home anymore. To tell the truth, i never really cared about it.

Let them release it whenever they want.
