Yeah, it definitely makes money for Sony.

Two years ago it was "a very good business model for PlayStation, and quite profitable,"

While things certainly can change, I'd imagine it still makes money.



playstation home is ok, it's something to do when there is nothing else to do, its not worth going "ok i'l turn on PS3... then play home!"
it's more of
"ok done with this game for a bit now what.... netflix? nah... oh psn home guess i'l roam around"



I'm sure it makes plently of money. I don't go on home that often,but when I do,there's always plently of people online.



I have never even downloaded playstation Home



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Does it come pre-installed these days? I have no point of reference because it's not on my phatty PS3.

"WAS"? It's still alive I'll have you know.


Really? News to me.

Every time we talk about Home, there's always someone who says this. I'm starting to think it's not down to a lack of advertising, it's just general ignorance from people.

Due to lack of advertising.


I'm talking about here on VGChartz, if you come to here regularly and don't know what PSHome is then you probably need to rethink your interest in gaming.

Have there been people who don't know what it is? That's news to me! I know plenty are surprised by its popularity and profitability, including myself.

I don't think it was pre-installed on the older models.  My friend has a fat PS3 and I tried to download Home on his system.  It was going to take forever to download so we just gave up on it.
