Many gamers are anticipating the launch of the PS3 Home very soon. There is even a rumor going around that it will launch December 17th. The PS3 Home has been hailed as the ultimate Xbox Live killer and XMB replacement. However, many will be disappointed as Home neither competes directly with the NXE nor replaces the XMB.
The XMB (cross media bar) is the basic interface on the PS3, PSP and several other Sony devices. The XMB is quite sufficient; even the New Xbox Experience copies the layout of it, because it is probably the most efficient way of organizing multiple media functions such as music, videos and games.
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.

I dont tend to use it that much (yet) and when ever i do i end up playin chess with sume dude who doesnt know how to play, i enjoy chess but none of my mates play it (we r a bunch of stoners) so i never get to play it
Would i say Home is worth it (although i only play chess) - i would say yes, its another free app for the Ps3
Like Tony the tiger would say "Its grrrrEAT" - coz its free
Finally an intelligent article. Cause till now it was "Home competes with xxxx", "what's better between home and xxxx" and somewhere they talk about Home like if it's a game.
Good they underline you can use it or NOT (if you don't want). And it's free, so... always welcome ;)
Yeah I knew NXE was going to be more oriented towards being friendly, I'm not saying it copied XMB but Microsoft realized it had to be more friendly. Anyway, Home will be competition for Xbox Live obviously whether they acknowledge or not. It's a free service, you can't really complain about free.
Clueless whoever thought Home was gonna replace XMB.
I have been a day one Home beta tester and honestly, its pretty, and nice, but I have no need for it.
I just use XMB and some of the stellar community in-game features some of the games have.
I have also been a day one Live Gold member and the new interface sucks.
It's NOTHING like the BRILLIANT idea that is HOME!!!;)
+ My New ;-P SONY HD:TV has the XMB on it;)
