PlayStation Home is 'Freemium'
Sony creates new offensive word.
So PlayStation Home, then. It's quite the underground success - despite us gamers being all 'meh' about it, Sony says there are still boatloads of people that use the virtual chatroom software every day, so we guess that counts for something. This year, Sony intend to expand the Home experience even further.
Speaking on the US PlayStation Blog, director Jack Buser detailed recent changes to the Home portal. Such changes included a revamped Mall space, that features storefronts from the likes of EA Sports and LucasArts. Storm Trooper costumes FTW. But Buser revealed that there's more exciting things to come yet.
"Many of our long time community members have been asking for features, fixes and content that we have been secretly hard at work on, and will be rolling out over time," Buser wrote. "Rest assured that we hear your requests loud and clear (I personally use Home and read the forums daily), and although we can’t deliver everything we’re asked for, we will compliment all of these new features and content with a renewed focus on open dialogue and service."
Does that mean we'll actually be able to launch a few more games from Home this year, Jack? We hope so, that was sort of the original point, wasn't it? What makes us really shudder though is this sentence, where Sony creates a brand new offensive word;
"PlayStation Home is based on a “freemium” model, which allows you, our community to play games, meet friends, explore and discover rewards – all for free."
