Don't know how credible this is, but it states the in game XMB is ready to release. This includes, in game chat, cross game chat, and in game music. All games released from now on will support it. And all older games will receive a patch to support it. Also says Home is about done as well.

XBL is losing it's edge

They problely mean it'll be a Japanese release soon, and a N.A release in the fall, then a U.K release in December or in 09.

Do you honestly think that PSN will remain free after Home comes out? Do you think anyone will get any cool usefulness out of Home without having to pay?

I don't think PSN will remain free. PSN will remain free, it's as simple as that. Home will charge you for garbage like new furniture in your apartment, and unessesary what not. But the service itself is free.

yes it will be free get over it. sony is not going to keep saying over and over again that it was free then they don't make it free. just wait they say but in a year if it matches xbl in every way then what you will still pay for it.

Exactly. The whole thing will be run like all those free MMOs out there (ie: Maplestory/Flyff/etc) ... Free service with Cash Shops.

Well, Sony said Home would be free of charge, let's just wait and see if they were lying. If you still have doubts that Home could work as a free service, think of what Sony can charge other companies just so they can have a nice banner in a space to promote their products. Advertising will pay for Home, heck, Sony can even get a huge profit from this.

So it took them more than a year to finally be on the same level as XBL. Unless you count the whole year 360 was out before PS3 than it would have had 2 1/2 years to catch up.

Yes, but you have to wait an additional week for content that everyone else gets to download, because Microsoft want to bank off everyone.

sony also said that people would pay micro-transactions for premium things in home like a 60' tv instead of like a 20' (thats not an actual case, but an example)

Wow-just wanting to correct you-you dont have to pay to use the XBL Store at all. You can use the marketplace as a silver member which is FREE.

So atleast you agree it's on the same level now. Now why should you have to pay for XBL when PSN is free.

MS doesn't have to charge for XBL, they only do to recouperate losses. Sony doesn't have to do that, they actually make money off of their systems

what I don't understand is why you guys still believe anything anyone says? I don't have a link, but I do remember sony saying that they would charge for an online service if it was viable. will they charge? who the hell knows for sure, but there is always a chance that they will do whatever helps keep their stock holders happy.

You got to admit it is kind of exciting to see what the outcome and what it changes to your experience on psn when home and in game xmb are released.

I was a Home beta tester back in August. So many bugs and the people in the community were childish. Home will be free, but I can see this gigantic black-hole of advertising and micro-transactions. This black hole could affect the enjoyment of Home...

No I don't agree. Xbox Dashboard and XMB ARE NOT ON THE SAME LEVEL NOW! They might be in the future but not now. PSN is trying to play catch up.

Home will match XBLs achievments and then some. It's something different, i don't know how it will go, but the bigger news is the in game XMB

f50p90

If Home will match XBL than how is it something different? Accomplishments might be different for PS3 owners but its not new.

Home will stay free. Sony said that they will charge companies to advertizing products on Home to keep it free for users, Just like all these other free website, advertizing keeps them free for users. Microsoft has advertizing and they still make you pay, what kind of shoot is that?
