Forums - Sony - PS Home is making money ???????

"content in the social networking service is selling tremendously. In fact, in the first four days of the open beta Home produced more money for Sony than the video download service did in its first week."


How much did the video download service do in the first weeks ???



God i hate fanboys, almost as much as they hate facts

Nobody knows except for insiders, they had some good movies on the 1st week, so I'd guess they did quite well....

 

I just logged into Home and there are a lot of people with Santa Clause outfits or with outfits that can only be bought, i.e. suits, etc....this can be a MAJOR cash cow for Sony...



These microtransactions are also just icing on the ask for Sony, the bulk of the money will be coming in from the 3rd parties who wish to advertise.



 

I hope it gets SONY quite a large amount of Cash.

LOL... people must be willing to give money for nothing. Most complain about spending 5$ for VC games. In home you don't even get a game with the 5$ and no one complains?

Wowzers....



Prepare for termination! It is the only logical thing to do, for I am only loyal to Megatron.

All I want is ALL games to launch via home. E.g GT5p or fifa. I really dont see it happening though



Ynwa.

@Darknight.

Most of the people going to home, are sitting around gabbing with other people :P It's a social experience before all. Home offers a ton, and will continue to offer more and more for different types of users. My friend is a fairly shy, low self confidence kind of guy, and he is sadly using home to meet new people lol. I see him on it literally like 5 hours a day >_>;;; He spends the entire time talking to people and adding friends to his list lol.

The first thing you have to get out of your head is that home is useless in any way shape or form. It's a fantastic service, and the micro transactions are a very tiny part of a much larger picture. Sony is pure genius for Home. And once they get more of the XMB features up and running for it, I will personally be using it a ton more ^^
