November issue of Qore takes you Home |

No, the online publication Qore isn’t going to give you a free ride to your house. God, you people are lazy. No, instead they are going to do something much better. Paid subscribers and one-time purchasers will be given a invite to the closed beta of Sony’s online service, HOME. So if you get it, be sure to immediately e-mail me how kick a** the experience was, attached with photos of your virtual space, and a note telling me that you love me. Or you can just..you know..give me your beta token since I’m lazy. As payment, I will write an undying sonnet to your greatness.

I think the biggest question about Home right now is: Does anyone even care anymore? I feel like I’ve been let down so many times that I will have zero interest whenever it actually manages to come out.

Yeah, I’ve yet to understand what Home is actually going to be used for other than probably advertising and virtual pool…

Same here. Warhawk mission planning, game specific areas, bowling, my own room, and advertisements. That about covers it?
Not trying to be an ass about it or anything but yeah, I don’t see Home being the holy grail Sony probably wanted it to be when they started the project.

This is sure to be something that I will have to look into. While I don’t think Home will in any way be a deciding factor for anyone looking to purchase a console it still looks entertaining. Thanks for the info.

I think it’s becoming a decent add-on. Something you’ll go to if you don’t fancy playing anything else. I was initially really excited, but I agree with Mike…it’s taken so long that I forget about it until there is some rare news on it. Maybe it will be addictive though, who knows…

I am in the Beta and its a great concept. But how Sony deals with issues will be the deciding factor in HOme.
Things like playing music, pics and video in your space are in discussions. It’s a great portal to meet new people in the game of your choice or not.
I admit i do not load it up as often as the first week when i got it because right now there is no reason (no game room for the games i play, and content that canonly be seen there etc)
