I can't.

I don't see what would entice me into flirting and mingling with people around the globe I don't know, for no reason, no profit, no gain, and then having to furnish my own virtual apartment with my credit card. =(

It would be fun to ___ with people on there.. Just to annoy them, so I think Home could be fun if you bored..

I'd be the first person to get banned form beta if I had PS3 XD

I remember in the GDC, Harrison said something like anyone who's giving you trouble can be "removed" from your vision. As in, they can't send you messages, nor can you see anything they might be doing.

Does Sony like to ruin people's fun?

lol joking.

I think it's meant for people who are harrassing you.

I heard that there won't be any collision detection so that people can't block you from going somewhere or doing something.

That'd be bad if there was, as it'd turn into Habbo.

I probably will get HOME for my PS3 but I'm not going to blow my money away to furnish a virtual home...
Like Dogen said Sims is Home, but free.

It's only a hub between the services Sony will provide. For those who are into the whole customization scene, they'll have what they are alloted and will buy items if they desire.

But the question still remains; will the PS Eye be used to create your personal avatar?

For Home? Yeah, it probably could.

In Tony Hawk's Underground for PSP, I could store a pic from my Memory Stick and map it to the character model.

If you didn't have a PS Eye, you could probably use some external file and map it the same way.

It can be used for a personal avatar in the upcoming Snake game for the PS3, so I expect the same for the later released Home.

Even if they don't have some sort of option to map your Home Avatar with your face, the face customization options are enough so that you could really make it look like yourself with some effort.

Doggy, if you don't care, why are you posting in this thread?'

Mainly because the creator of the thread didnt say "if you dont like it, don't post" But it's a little too late to change that, huh?

Yeah, but that's just common netiquette. It'd be like if I went over into the Kingdom Hearts section and started posting how much I didn't care about Kingdom Hearts.

I hope you have fun reading about how much fun other people are having in the Beta! You can enjoy the fun in 2008! Play the Sims to tide yourself over.

I don't see what you mean. As of today I'm still potentially in the beta until it actually starts and I do not get a confirmation email of acceptance.

I hope you realize the stupidity of what you just said to someone with 7,207 posts.

I found what you stated earlier to be detrimental to my thread, so I kindly without flaming, gave you a subtle direction to ignore it and not come back.

Obviously I can't regulate what you do over an internet connection.

Anyway, I'm interested to see how Home turns out. I hope we'll have some vids on YouTube soon.

NDAs prevent this in a sense and I'm certain nobody will be bold enough to do it anytime soon. Have you ever beta tested before?

So what you're saying is... whatever is posted on the forums, we have to love?

No; just don't say purely malicious things. It's not that big of a deal: don't go into a thread if you don't like it. Why do you think that i don't have 40,000 posts? Self control man, self control.

Last time I checked this was a forum. And forums are where you post what you think. If you didn't want any bad feedback maybe you should of posted this in the Sony topic.

>_> Except The Sims Suck, this is alot better that 2nd life or sims, the customization is phenomonal(opinion based on GDC trailer) and you can interact by playing online games with people and watch exclusive free movie trailers. And you can post up stuff about yourself and hang pictures you have on your PS3 on frames in your apartment. So think 2nd Life+Myspace+Youtube+Something totally new. This looks awesome, Im only crestfallen I didnt know where to go in time.
