E3 ‘08: Jack Tretton says “Home” May Be Two Years Away

By Jeremy ⋅ July 16, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

In a recent sit-down interview with Engadget at this year’s E3, Sony’s Jack Tretton alluded to the fact that Sony is in absolutely no rush to release “Home.” When asked directly about where “Home” was in the development process, Ole Jackie Boy said that the problems have come from, “the disconnect of when Sony took Home out of the creative minds and put it the hands of business minds… but I would rather ship it two years from now with a lot of good stuff, than open it as some ghost town. We have to do a good job of populating it.”

Ouch, looks like PS3 gamers shouldn’t be holding their breath for a “Home” beta. Now don’t get all rabid fanboyish on this one. He didn’t say the release is in two years. He just said Sony is prepared to take their sweet ass time to make it awesome. If Home really does spend four years in development before it is released, it better be fucking good.

Everyone that uses the word delaystation in this thread gets banned. Find something original for a change.

I still don't see the appeal of Home. What's the point of it?

More like Decaystation!

My guess is PS4 will be out before Home is.

What about Sony is so far from "Home"? Is that original enough to avoid the ban hammer?

I think that Jack needs to release Home, even an un-ideal version of Sony's vision for Home, before consumers start to lose interest in it.

If they can figure out how they're going to make Home, a delay isn't really bothering me that much. However, I think that they're wasting valuable money by scurrying around in the dark like they seem to be doing.

Sure, it'd be nice if it were to come out, but I think fixing the identity crisis would be better than releasing it to gamers who are already questioning the usefulness of Home.
