Ok, "many" don't like it and "many" do.  The "many" that don't like it or just don't use it = 80%+ of the PS3 userbase.  I'm sure a lot of that userbase doesn't go online with their PS3's so my number isn't spot on, but if even 50% of PS3 users go online, then of that, only 33% have used Home even once (regular basis number being much smaller) and 66% have yet to even touch it.

 

100% of statistics made up on the spot are factually incorrect.  But keep on preaching.

 

Those aren't made up though.  Sorry.  I believe Sony released an article saying 4 million people have tried Home since it's launch a little while back.  That means 17 million have not, which is 80% of 21 million.  The other percentages are based off of these numbers and you should be able to figure that out from there.... I hope.

 

See anything wrong with this contradictory logic?

 

Nope.  Would you like me to find the article?  I guess to please your retardedness I should have left out the "I believe" part because you are the only person who can still try to find something wrong with it.  I am actually quite positive they released the article.  Let me find it so I can laugh at all of your miserable attempts to try and discredit me.

EDIT:  And the laughter begins:

From said article:

In an interview with GameDaily, Sony's senior marketing vice president Peter Dille has revealed some stats on PlayStation Home, Sony's online virtual community, which was greeted with a rather lukewarm reception when it launched late last year. Word is 4 million people have come into Home and those who do stick around stick around for 55 minutes on average.

Sony doesn't differentiate between active and idle users (by idle, I mean you've gone in once, checked it out, and never gone back), so it's hard to say how many folks are really hard-core Home dwellers. However, what's clear is that now that it's had an opportunity to mature a bit, the company is making a push to publicize the virtual world that Sony officials have admitted has been a challenge to build and maintain.

The biggest gripe that critics have had about PlayStation Home is that it's long on Sony marketing and short on fun. But Dille says Sony is learning and will "nurture" and "develop" Home.
