Its working perfectly for me. Very impressed with it.

 

As a closed beta user that found it dull, what do you find impressive about home?  I asked a hundred people this question and never got a straight answer.  For the life of me I cannot find a compelling reason to regularly use Home.

 

I am not a troll, this is an honest question.

 

Being able to have a go at PSN games Ive never played in the arcade is great. The potential for specific game user areas will be brilliant too. I think its just a great way of seeing what is happening in the PS3 world.

So what do people think of it? What makes it so cool besides making an avatar? I hear it takes between 3-4 gig of space to DL?

From what I've read, the game reserves 5 GB space for the extra areas you explore and stuff.

I'm also curious about what is so amazing about this.

For those that were in the closed beta, is it the same thing or has some of the locked features been opened up?

 

3 GB only

Been working fine for me, no errors/disconnections. This is pretty neat, my only major gripe is that it takes a while to download areas. And it takes a while to load up games and movie trailers. So it's pretty much what I expected; not revolutionary, but a cool feature that helps the PS3 to stand out from the other consoles. Should be interesting to see how Sony improve it over the months and years.

I get that, but it gets old pretty fast.  I think I am one of those people that has been ruined by a Sony Beta. I have seen Home, therefore the release of the product is disappointing.  Its the same thing with Little Big Planet beta testers that eneded up not buying the game.

it's ok but nothing special, at least you can create interesting avatars.

is there anything new in it, compared to the beta?



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

@ chapset.. there is nothing in it.

The Farcry 2 spaces, Uncharted space and new Central plaza are old?

Aren't they all there?

@ dmeister.. no. not in uk at any rate.

Oh yeah, UK stuff isn't coming until tommorow or next week or somethin.

I got on the Beta a couple of weeks ago, worked fine at first, but then just sat there when I went into the cinema etc and it wouldn't dowload, so I gave up. I can't really see the point either, we get all the trailers and demos on PSN. Interesting for a couple of hours maybe.
