If they can actually pack Home with games like Echocrome and that Red Baron flying game then thing could actually work. You get a bunch of free addictive mini games with leaderboards that you can check out when you don't have any other games to play.
Same here, friend.Charles said:
I fucking hate it how they say that this service will be available for all PS3 users around the world, then state at the end of their press release that some regions won't be getting it. F U Sony.
It's like they don't even consider us as being part of this world.

Chess is already there, its at the mall. Just hard to get a game going since they are always occupied.

well i didnt mean to imply that it will happen tomorrow... but it has been said that it will work like that when the devs make the structure up. I would assume it'll happen just like trophies. 1st party first and even to older games, and then the rest trickling in for future games if it catches on

I'm not really talking about games like that (although they'll have their appeal also), i'm talking a bout stuff like that Buzz game that's been in development. It looks like it could be really good
I never really cared for Buzz, but that Home space changes my mind 
Very clever Sony
EDIT: Also...
If you live in another region, isn't it possible that you could make a US or Japanese account and use the PSN store to get this (if Home is to be available there)?
The reason I ask this is because I didn't receive a Japanese Home invite. Yet, I just realized today that I can use my US beta while using my Japanese log in and it takes me to their Home (tried this before and it didn't work). This leads me to think that if you could get it on your console, you should be able to get it to work. Just have someone share it with you if and when it becomes available.

Anyone think the 11th could mean tonight at midnight?

Interesting. I wonder if they'll roll out all of tomorrow's stuff before then, or just some.. gonna have to go check it out.. As of earlier today, the US spaces hadn't changed as far as I could tell.
edit - home square seems to be the same, but new videos including a red bull flugtag one..also, new vids seem to load a lot faster for me now, they're pretty much there when i go into the space, unlike before. Downloading the new theatre now..

Yeah, I remember someone posting a quote from an EA employee that posts on that IGN board saying how people shouldn't jump to conclusions about Home based on the beta because EA's own Home space would be vastly different from the stuff in the beta. Hopefully they'll launch it soon.
After seeing that pixelated furniture.... im gonna say it guys :
Home looks like a good and fun initiative.
Oh and i saw the trailer of the RedBull Airplane game, its like sony have a framework so other companies can make Free games . Pretty nice.
EDIT:Yeah,tomorrow the servers will crash.

In the closed beta, if you try to sign in with an account that doesn't support Home (I think having no access to the PS Store is a criteria for that), you get an error message, something like "Z(7,-12)" when you try to connect from the Home welcome screen.Epcott said:
Seeing as it's SCEE we're dealing with here, things won't change tomorrow (or in the next year or so, for that matter).

Pretty excited, but I don't know whether I'll download it straight away... whether that's my choice or not. I'd imagine things are going to be pretty hectic tomorrow when everyone tries to get on.
Great to see there's gonna be some nice content to start with, but things really need to be constant and fresh to keep people's attentions. Here's hoping...

Ah, well..just try different random buttons, eventually you should get it..
The new theatre in EU home is nicer..but it's weird that the auditorium is a single-person affair. The same auditorium model in the US allows people in together. But maybe they'll be changing that too once there are multiple auditoria in US home.
A bit annoying that the auditorium has to load seperately also.

When i watched a trailer I could hear two other guys talk in the microphone.
Anastacio said:
Well, they seem to be now.
And that being the case, it makes no sense that you've no control over the playback of what you're watching (i.e. you can't pause it). That's another one of those "did you actually test this yourselves, Sony?" thing that sticks out badly.
Video quality is good though.

OK, so I have a US PS3 and I'm from the UK... do I download Home from the UK or US Store? and which servers will I connect to?

Probably been said before, but I'm a bit disappointed that the very first commercial space in the game isn't even game related. Red Bull? What the fuck?
The Hexus content is up, but eurogamer stuff just seems to be trailers for now..
Do the videos really have to download completely before playing? Or is it lying to me and just downloading a bit first and then streaming? Hopefully the latter :|
Also, how are they gonna handle different 'programmes' in one theatre? There don't seem to be any playback controls or ways to select programmes. Right now in the Hexus theatre it's just playing a video, of which I'd no control in picking.

So what's the Far Cry gamespace like? I'm excited since I have it for PS3, but I don't know anything about it. Does it unlock a trophy, new game content, or is it just wallpapers and such?

Er, hardly, there's plenty still on the way and there are several promised features that aren't in yet (p2p video streaming) or taken out (ps2 bc).Sadaiyappan said:
