It seems like its not just a 3d chat room . Lets add the trophies (accomplishments) that will be released with home as well and we have a Winner

Home > Xbox Live Achievements

oh clever i see what ya did there...blatant opinion without any facts / anything to back you up. nice good job.

microtransactions alone will kill this game for me .. i'll get bored of what there for free, and would find it a waste to buy more stuff (which is inevitably the way sony will go)

also, i think a lot of people are gonna get addicted to it .. it'll just become a huge waste of everybody's time, depriving them of the greater enjoyment of playing actual games

not too much good can come of this for true gamers IMO

You mean if it were on a console or from a company you liked, and didn't hate like the PS3?

There will be no way to get bored of what's available for free...

#1 We don't get bored of coming into these forums and chatting with each other. And that's the main function of Home, to provide a forum for gamers to chat & get to know other players of the same console... works well on gaming sites, will probably work out even better on a console. The main focus is a place for gamers to come together, not the apartments & content... that's just added to make it an interesting & immersive environment that we enjoy coming back to.

#2 Not only is Sony providing tons of free content, each game that you purchase will add even more to that free content. So you could enjoy new content in Home without ever having to make any micro transactions. But what's cooler is the ability to trade and buy stuff from other players, not just Sony & the devs.

#3 IF Home did suck up a lot of ppl's time... that's a good thing. B/c no one is going to be wasting time on something that they don't enjoy. So if they're letting it take up their time, it's b/c they're enjoying themselves... which can not be considered a bad thing to gamers in any way imaginable.

All in all, I'm looking forward to Home. I think that it will provide an added boost to the social vibe of online gaming. But ultimately, I don't think it is going to overshadow the fact that we are on the console to game, not chat. I'm likely to explore Home most before deciding which game I want to play, or at times like this when I just want to kill time chatting w/ other gamers and finding out the latest gossip. It just adds another way to have fun on the system, that's all.

It won't be as good as you think. Sounds all gimmicky to me...tccavey2

i really hope not. but im getting that vibe too

HOME is not a game.

As long as we dont have to pay for Home its going to be a lot of fun, but if I have to buy home for $70 like a game, then i'll pass.

yeah your right.. because once your out of middle school it isnt fun anymore to meet new people and make more online buddies right?

Live is for online multiplayer and downloads. HOME is more like MySpace, which is very popular for the middle schollers.

Sony Domination starts now. Home, trophies, couches, beds, refrigerators, walls, shoes, teeth, everything you could want.jackvegas21

All i know is gamers win and fanboys loses

I will be enjoying home while fanboy calling it kiddie and gimmiky

The only interesting use described here, Warhawk's map room, really didn't require Home. They could have added a strategy session to Warhawk any time they wanted. Rainbow Six: Raven Shield had this back in, what, 2003?lowe0

it's business stand point... you would understand it if you go to school

makes people use home

Come on cows, try to convince anyone here that Sony or scam artists wouldn't use Home to prey on people. If Sony had no qualms about putting rootkits in CDs, what would stop them here?DXGreat1_HGL

scam artists are every where, what's your point? I don't see where you going with this.

Stika you couldnt have said it any better lol, if Microsoft did something along the lines of Home I wouldn't own a PS3 because my gaming heart would be full.

And nowhere in my post did I say there wasn't a business case for moving features into Home that could have been done in-game. I simply pointed out that I'm not impressed, as it's nothing that couldn't have been done in-game.

I feel sorry for you if you needed to go to college to understand this concept. This is common sense
