I think Sony wants home a basis for discussion of games and relatated topics and not for discussion of relgion and sexual orientation.

Can't see a problem with that.

So games can't involve religion or sexuality? Not owning a PS3 I don't care about this chat filter at all, but that excuse is just laughable.

 

 

 It's a tricky one though isn't it.

The users of Home, much like Xbox Live have shown themselves for the immature bunch of losers that they are on the whole, works both ways!

I'm not really on one side or the other, but you can't blame Sony for doing what they have done. If there was an easy magic wand solution I'm sure they'd use it.

At the end of the day they should have seen it coming but maybe they did and as far as they're concerned this is a fitting solution.

It's the most common form of censorship on all parts of internet based communication. The word gay\lesbian\jew are still used today as insults. We can't have a our cake and eat it.

To answer your question though, no sexuality\religion has no place in game in my opinion unless its an integral part to a story and is there to provide a hook to a plot or gives some form of entertainment. Much like pornography! I'm all for porn in games but when there's just a smidgen of that everyone is up in arms...

Where's the justice in that?

Just the way it is.

The chat filter is pretty ridiculous.

Something will get censored to so****ing be because the middle of the word is "meth"

Yeah, I don't want all those sony fanboys talking abut those gay-jewish-christian-hating MS fanboys.
