I'm guessing there'll be even more to Home than we've seen. Dance halls, funky outdoor areas, places where you can play games with other Home avatars (capture the flag, Go kart racing) I think Home is going to see two kinds of users. The casual, and the Obsessed. Casual users will have some fun fancying up the apartment, play that awesome arcade game in the demo, and run around from time to time seeing what Sony has recently added.

The obsessed... And oh there will be many of them... They'll spend hours on Home. They'll spend massive amounts of money on their pads, organize group get togethers, turn Home into a dating bananza... there will be much, MUCH! masturbation taking place around Home...

If Sony released a much cheaper, non blueray, forget the Cell console centered around the Home service, they'd have had a crazy hit on their hands. It's too bad they tried to do every damn thing under the sun.

 Yup.

 And for you Wii guys who say HOME is horrbile. Nintendo did something with 1/10th the idea, and every time a rumor goes around, about something similar from nintendo, all the Wii guys soil their pants in glee.

No matter how you look at it, HOME is probially the biggest "software" peice for the 'casual' gamers in a long time.

HOME isnt for me, but I wanna have a pimped out mansion. For all my 'awards'

Home is ***NOT*** a MMO. For those of you who dont understand HOME that well Do some reading into what "HOME" is.

HOME is a simple lobby. It is not a place for 100,000 people to roam in the same room. It's meant for I think, tops 50 people. Those of you talking about how horrible people are. Create your own 'home' server... (not sure how it would be done) Have some people pay you to run ads. Have people get on there, make you some money, and ban the asshats.

I dont think everyone can do that, but developers will have their own home enviroments. So if... RockStar was holding a sony press release. They could start up a invite only HOME server, and everyone can watch/listen to the director, watching HD of whatever is being presented, real time. Events like that, it is unknown as to how many people could join in. HOME is largly unknown still, and what is known, is only a scrape off the surface. I think HOME is gonna be massive. Question is, Will it be massive, or win the console war? I think it's gonna be that big/important for sony.
