Forums - Sony - Home is Not For Profit.... Its All About The Community!!

Zkuq said:
Of course it's for community and not for profit because bigger community means bigger userbase and bigger userbase means more potential customers. And naturally more potential customer means more (potential) profits. Although I doubt their true motivation is community, I don't have a very hard time believing this anyway. Community = profit if they do stuff right.

I believe Sony makes good money from advertisements and not just the micro transactions made by PS3 owners. Like I doubt Sony paid Redbull to put a space in HOME. I am sure it was the opposite.

 

 

To touch up on Kowenicki arguing about the PR "lying". When MS talks about their $50/year charge, do they say it is because they want your money or because they use it to help the community?

Put yourself in their shoes. What would you do?

You gonna come out and say "We have HOME because we want your money. It is not about the community, it is all about getting you all to spend your hard earned cash on our virtual items."

Go ahead and act like it is something you can bitch about. You go ahead and do that and see how long you last in a PR job.

In all honestly you are complaining about something so stupid.. Something that is not at fault to just Sony, MS, Nintendo, etc... All PR from all companies do the same shit. It is their job.

Really, what did your post add to this discussion?

good for you.

@euphoria

so you agree with my take on HOME (the money spinning aspects) but dont like that I am saying it... odd.

over and out... this thread has turned into the usual sony defensive nonsense.

Yes. All companies do it, but you only made yourself look very foolish here.

You come into this thread with nothing more than to bitch and moan about someone doing what their job description tells them to do. (Think about this for a moment.)

What is worse is that you think people like me are giving this response because it is a Sony defensive position.

No. It is just common fucking sense that people do what their job description says they have to do. How else does a PR guy get paid?

Will him telling the truth make you happy? Probably.

Will him telling the truth let him keep his job? Nope.

 

My god bro. This shit with you lately is so childish. What the hell happened to you?

Contact me via PM if you really wish to know. I may have mentioned it, but it has no place in this thread.

Home is the equivilant to the 360 Arcade(when it came with a few arcade games). Home offers lowbudget, free games to play within a community space. It costs nothing innitially, only if you want to expand upon that experience.

When people talk about 360 Arcade, and the fact it comes/came with free games I just say PS3 comes with HOME which has way more games and stuff to do than other systems.

PS: HOME Xi is the shit, everyone should check it out. Its like playing real life Carmen Sandiego or The Davinci Code.
