SONY MARKETING ERROR #17829
So, they've decided to release HOME as a public Beta. That's HOME, the amazing virtual world that had game journalists and PS3 fanboys proclaiming the greatness of Sony and how it would be the best thing EVER! Except, it's not. Two years on, it turns out to be a half empty, badly thought out mess (queuing to play a game of Pool?!) and clearly nothing more than a cynical attempt to actually make some money out of the cash-haemorraghing disaster that has been PS3. And with nothing on the horizon, save GT5, surely the 'nail in the coffin'. Even ThreeSpeech can't be arsed to Big It Up like they did with Little Big Planet (already being sold for £19.99) Let's have another little round-up of public opinion shall we;


  • "Are there really people dumb enough to spend £3.99 on a virtual house?"


  • "What they've released is just a huge anti-climax"


  • "You cannot create anything in PlayStation Home. You can only buy it."


  • "Pointless, monotonous and poorly executed"


  • "It's like the success of the PS2 has gone to their head and they think people will buy anything"


  • "It seems to be a really inconvenient way to launch games and videos while pretending to live in a nightmare vision of the future"


  • "..and the load times for each area, oh dear, that was something I didn't expect. "


  • "I really can't fathom what they've been spending all that development time doing"



There's no place like home. THANK FUCK!
