From the article, "Toro’s Friend Network a free-to-play, social app has just launched on the Vita. As someone who loves Toro in all his forms, especially in Toro! Let’s Party!, I had to get in on this. After spending about an hour with the game, I have to admit that it’s about what I expected, though I didn’t expect so much paid content.
Once one launches the Toro’s Friend Network app, they’re immediately tasked with creating a profile."
Looks like PlayStation Home isn't the only PlayStation social environment being shut down. Sony Computer Entertainment Japan and Asia announced that the Japanese version of the little social network Toro's Friend Network on PS Vita is going to close its doors for good on March 31st.
This is a shame it was an excellent service. No doubt Sony has something ten times better in the works though.
I don't even know what this is, but I hate hearing about things shutting down.
First it was Resistance which I still played regularly, then Home (which I didn't care too much for). It really makes me think twice about ever putting any money into any online services like these.
Why are they closing these services? I wonder if they are planning to use the servers for something on PS4 or they just don't want to fund it anymore.
Searching for a PS Home on your Vita? Here it is!
Shacknews: ''The Vita is getting a pair of apps tomorrow: Toro's Friend Network and Paint Park Plus. The first is a social networking app that lets you interact in a sort of meta-game with friends, while the second is a set of updates and enhancements to the existing Paint Park app.''
