I just don't see it. It looks kind of boring. I'd also worry about the creepy people that might be attracted to such an environment. I don't think I'd want my kids any where near it.

The world is an unfriendly place and scary in a lot of ways.

Children will be exposed to the less pleasant aspects eventually. Better to do it while you're at their side where you can do something about it and prepare them to deal with it when you're not. Sheltering them just makes them that much more vulnerable.


So, "Home", a place to expose your kids to an unfriendly and scary place in a kid safe environment. Parental supervision required. Is that what you're trying to say?


No, no. That's Xbox Live. Go back to Albuquerque, hang a right, and keep going until you get to "j00 sux0rs" street and it'll be right there.


 Xbox Live is in Albuquerque? I'll have to check it out if I ever go to Albuquerque. But anyways, you're recommending that parents supervise their children when they use Xbox Live? Strange that you would mention that in a thread about Home but thanks for your thoughts on the matter.

 I doubt you'll ever be in Albuquerque.  You don't have a Wii Friend Code for it.

 Strange that you would mention a Wii Friend Code in a thread about "Home". So I can be clear on your thoughts, you were saying that children should not be sheltered from Xbox Live, if I'm reading your comments correctly. You're also of the opinion that "Home" doesn't also fall into the same category? Thanks again for your thoughts on the matter.

It's easier to find bad material on google than it will ever be on home.  Get real people.  I hate that Nintendo mentality that everyone is so vunerable.

Home should do great things for Sony. Wii fans are upset because they don't have a decent online component like Live or PSN.



I'll take the case!!!

 I dont know...er...it exists? Wii has the VC which is fair enough, but the online gameplay is poor.

Does the Wii have voice chat? Can you download add on content for games? Does the Wii come with a ethernet cable? Can you download demos of upcoming games? Are there more than 5 titles you can play online, and if so do they have online leader boards? Can you send photos to friends online? With Home you can video chat with your friends. You can watch videos and listen to music with your friends and so on.
