Part social network and part 3D virtual world, Kaneva also throws in a dash of YouTube, with media sharing for pictures and Flash video. I received news of the service today, but Kaneva has been kicking about since late 2004. Essentially you begin with a standard social-network profile, then earn prestige points to work your way up a site leaderboard until you're invited to join the 3D social world, which launched its beta in April of last year.

Most of the reasons people are hyping it  are because it connects the social networking aspect to PS3 online games.

Home looks cool , its free, and it is designed for playstation users in mind. What is not to like ? Who cares where this stuff comes from ? Jealousy is running wild in SW and I just don't get it.

I don't get the big deal about home, all the stuff it does like watching videos, chatting and playing games (mini games like pool and bowling) with friends I do in, you know, real life. Maybe I'm in the minority here but Home sounds like its designed for people too scared to a) meet real people and/or b) too scared to get some sunlight.

If you don't like Home, you don't download it. How more simple of a concept can it be? And the fact that you're not being charged for it...need I say more?

Sure it is a copy...But how many things are original now. But I agreence on Sony Fanboys hyping it as the 2nd comming of sliced bread^^ Home seems to be getting more hype then any other game comming out. They are treating it as the savior of the PS3/ How it will incite mass riots of casual gamers flocking to the PS3:lol: Of course it is a nice idea...but sorry to say it. Gamespot had it right. It is pretty much going to be kind of like Barrens Chat in WoW or any of those other nerd things. A bunch of little kids screaming, wannabe gangsters, and elitist gamers fighting at each other. It is pretty much going to be system wars lol. Except they can put porn on TVs lol

Part social network and part 3D virtual world, Kaneva also throws in a dash of YouTube, with media sharing for pictures and Flash video. I received news of the service today, but Kaneva has been kicking about since late 2004. Essentially you begin with a standard social-network profile, then earn prestige points to work your way up a site leaderboard until you're invited to join the 3D social world, which launched its beta in April of last year.

hahah poor lem. trying to find a reason to bash Home when, really he has none. For g-ds sake, microsoft couldn't find a reason to bash home, you could stop defending the billion dollar corp that hasn't done s*** for you.

 

i think your trying too hard to find flaws. we have seen what they offer in action and by g-d if it can actually play out without much lag once its released then this could seriously be a evolutionary step in console gaming.

I don't care if it is original or not

as long as the result is good.

If we followed your way of thinking, we wouldn't have cars with more than 10 horse power.

Or lemmings are pissed that Home is free and they are paying $50 for the same old online gaming.
