There really is some growth when they implement some tactics for games like SOCOM of Killzone 2. Still I believe Second Life is for Geeks, however when Second Life will run just as smooth as MSN on every casual PC it will be far more popular. To date Second Life is still very very crappy on a Pentium 4 when you switch rooms. I´m pretty sure that Sony is on step higher on the stairs than Microsoft as you mentioned they already follow with avatars. |
Yes, but they believe the Wii's example makes more sense than Sony's. They aren't exactly showing a threatened face at home. It's just another enjoyable factor for hardcore Sony gamers to change up the online experience into a virtual experience. It's not exactly a draw for the casual but whatever, it exists and it will draw whomever it draws. Home will be more time consuming than it will be quick and easy like a trailblazing online experience. I wont deny that it will give Sony owners an alternative however.
