Ok seriously, Sony needs to scrap Home.. Its a lost cause

I know its free to use, but thats not the point.. What is Sony doing with Home at this point? we havent heard any new updates about it in months and at Sony's big shareholder conference a couple weeks ago Home wasnt even mentioned whatsoever. The PS3 now is so successful that they can just announce they will scrap Home, take the money they have made and move on.. I mean seriously, who really uses this?

Who knows, maybe im wrong,. Maybe Home is just to much ahead of its time and will become huge in a year or two but for now I dont think people are ready for it and its proving to be completly pointless.. your thoughts?

its making sony money and some people like it. why would they scrap it?

No1 cares if you hate it,

becuase there are many people useing Home, go check it out now, its nowhere close to being a dead town ;)

Just because you dont like it dosent mean that everyone dosent as well and that they should remove it..NO!.. its awesome, i dont go there that often myself but i do visit it once or twice a month, every single month they add more stuff and tis always full of people, i like it and want sony to add more stuff into it

How does Sony even profit from Home? Do those advertisement billboards and Avatar clothing sales really generate enough revenue to keep the service up and running, as well as justify the inital investment costs?PandaBear86

I Just wonder why we havent seen a "It only does everything" commercial for Home? they could make a great commercial for home under the new marketing campaign, but they dont..

well there's your problem.

Home is pointless and a waste of memory imo.

I love home. Got me about 5 or 6 friends off there, and co op with them all the time. im glad Sony didnt scrap home. i love getting new friends

I think girl gamers use home more than males, can't explain why :?

It's a good casual attraction and some people enjoy it. You wouldn't want Sony to scrap making Singstar and Buzz games too ? Where will it end ? They'll have to remove everything to please all demographics. They taek out Home for you , pretty soon they'll stop making what you enjoy too.

Sony are making money off of it, and some people like Home. If you don't like it don't use it, like me.

Don't like it? Don't use it.

This belongs in the PS3 boards.

I know its free to use, but thats not the point..

Sony makes money off it, and overall its free. Why would you complain about something free you don't have to use? Its like complaining about free puppies at a shelter, do you have to take one home?

Plus many people still use it, the game rooms get plenty of support from devs and publishers, and the minigames provide some entertainment when bored. Home was also the first place to use a console Alternate Reality Game (Xi), which was quite popular.
