As a former closed beta member, I got my hands on HOME a little long before many of you even logged in the virtual community. As you can imagine I was incredibly excited. Immediately after creating my avatar and downloading all of the different places in HOME I wandered around the community. I found people in small groups using voice chat and laughing. A few days later I sent a message to my PSN friend asking him how he felt about Home. He sent me a message saying that although it was fun it could get tedious quick. I understood where he was coming from even though I didn't agree. So is Home really boring?
First, you have to ask yourself a question to answer the one above. What do you want to do in Home? Do you want to hang out with your friends and clan members? Or do you want to chase virtual girls (which 80% of the time are actually guys ) and play saucer pop all day along? Fact is, if you don't use Home as Sony intended you to use it , you will find it unsatifying.
I saw the dozens of "Home is boring" articles from a mile away. That's because I knew that many people would not understand it. I began to wonder and set aside all the biased thoughts myself. One day I was walking through Home and I heard a few people in a group cracking up at some guy's joke, something involving Eminem and Hancock, but that's not the point. As it is now, Home is good for what it is, even as a virtual community it still isn't perfect, but that's why it's in a beta.
Bottom line: Home doesn't have to be boring. Invite some friends to your pad, try a game of bowling, make a club for your clan,etc. As you already may know Sony is adding Christmas clothes to the mall and hopefully soon more trophy rooms. There is room for improvement in Home, but try to understand the concept because it's something Sony cannot fix entirely with just another update.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
I really started to get familiar with it. Home is fun even without (me)having a club or inviting my friends. Pool is the $hit and getting to meet different gaming personalities is very interesting. There are some cool people in Home. Now, either those who seem dissatisfied were like me in the beginning or they are just those types who like to try to look cool by saying that everything sucks(especially in proximity of female avatars). If Home sucks, why are you even logged into it? No one's holding you captive....Anyway, every time I look through my PSN Friends List there are more people in Home than actually playing games. So I officially eat my words: HOME IN FUN!!!!
Peace
Yup home is boring.
a PS3 and home?
It's not boring if your a 60 year old pedaphile, 12 year old pervert, or a 40 year old virgin.
