Microsoft: HOME is old tech, and doesnt touch XBL

I've been reading Home reviews today and they're all just blasting the service. They say that basically there is nothing to do but buy (with real money) designer clothes and furniture for your avatar. There is a bowling game, but it would be "laughed off of Wii Ware".

I talked to a couple of people who played it as well, and they said it was uninteresting. The first guy told me that he made an avatar that looked like him and no one wanted to hang out, but then he made a female avatar and he was surrounded by people wherever he went and it was obnoxious.

The biggest problem people seem to have with home is that Sony controls all of the content and as a result it is uninteresting.

Whoa, big surprise... :D

Home will improve. Be sure.
