The latest statement from Kaz Hirai has caused quite a stir. Some people are questioning why he would make such a statement. On the Home forum on the official Playstation Forum, people are saying that this is indicative of another delay. Is there really a need to panic? Did Kaz subtly announce that we are in for another delay? I for one would say no. Let me tell you why.
There is one thing that everyone needs to take a moment to realize. Kaz said that the Open Beta would still be coming this autumn. This statement is key because of a comparison that Sony has been making for a while. Home's release will be akin to the release of Gmail. Last I checked, no one is freaking out because the official Gmail release date has not been announced. Gmail is still in Beta. I am reminded of this every time I log in to check my messages. I am sure some of you will say that Gmail is at least out and has not been delayed twice already. I cannot fault you for thinking that. But I will certainly say that it is too early to say that the sky is falling.
Benjamin Rivers has suggested that it is “totally possible” for two of his titles — Alone With You and Home — to be ported to Nintendo Switch.
I recently published an article about beating my Steam backlog by getting organised and the first game I’ve completed with this new approach is Home.
I chose Home not because of its production values or reviews, but because, well, it’s short. I needed a game to start my new approach on the right foot and read that Home takes less than two hours to beat.
Whatever my reasons for finally installing Home, I found it to be an enjoyable yet flawed title.
Handheld Players takes a look at the PS Vita new releases in February 2018.
People with common sense pretty much understood exactly what it is he meant. But N4G has a minimal amount of people who have such a trait. As such, because of this no matter how many times we point out the actual interpretation, supply it with facts, and do a little dance, we'll have the same usual suspects downplaying, trolling, and spreading flames well into the night. Good write up though.
When your ready Sony bring it out . Sony should stop talking about home until its ready . I agree with the previous post , There are things already on the ps3 that will keep us entertain till Home comes out . Is there really a mad hysteria for home to come out or is it the media trying to bring the ps3 down again .I never seen anyone with a ps3 ask me when home is coming out . Most people don't even know what Home is . I do get this question all the time though . When is socom coming out ????
because its already been delayed enough to where people don't expect it to come any time soon.
because the loyal fans are more than enough to clean up anything execs say and perform damage control..... :/
I couldn't care less about HOME. It sound real nice when I heard about it 2 years ago, but I've moved on. They can continue to expand the xmb and I'll be cool with it, but one thing I will say is this. The article is right, the open beta will come out this fall, not because Sony want's to deliver something groundbreaking to us ps3 fans, but because they don't want the new xbox experience to gain any more ground. People are hating on it right now, but once it's out I think the NXE is gonna convert a lot of non believers. Sony will need HOME out to say "hey we have a 3d offering as well, and we can do xyz, etc,."
Gotta love competition.
Check out the E3 2008 real time footage from the press. Sony had real time demos running at their e3 2007 presentation by Phil Harrison. But what they have done since 2007 is even more impressive. It looks more than ready for an open beta.
