A noble failure? A work in progress? Or is it something much bigger than people anticipated? Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's London Studio had a grand vision: to create a unique social portal that goes a large step beyond Miis and Avatars, bordering on something like Second Life. Of course, with lofty ambition comes user expectation and sometimes a painful reality check.
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.
It's yet another great idea by Sony with plenty of potential but no real substance that will be taken by Microsoft and transformed into something amazing.
Home and the eyetoy are complete failures, but they are the first step in some awesome gaming tech by Microsoft.
It lacks direction. 100%
Whoever is in charge is very confused and it shows.
Make it more Game-Centric. Give us Pokemon style dueling, where everyone has a pet, give it a style and atmosphere that its a "fictional" world not a bland regurgitation of real life, where 20 year old males hook up wiht 15 year old females.
Its very dissapointing. I've even spent a bit of money in Home, but its not choesive enough, I've acutally just deleted it. And why is everything a HUB? Make it a seamless virtual world, give it a landscape, an actual spacial system. Make the user's feel like its al iving breathing world, not a hub to hub advertisement.
Bleh. Very dissapointed. You can tell Sony isn't fully commited to it and the designers/project leads, haven't got a clue. All they know is "we need to advertise". Which will ultimately be its down fall.
