silly question but where do we input these codes at?
 
Got on Home for the first time in months to see the new "feature" of picture sharing. Three bucks for a picture frame to enable photo sharing at low rez? Really?

Stick a fork in it.
 
I bought the picture frame today, haters be damned.

It works really well, you can manipulate the image a few different ways, and you can rotate the canvas how you see fit. And the image is instantaneous as soon as you click the button. I've a great picture of my kids up in my virtual pad now, and they like seeing themselves in a videogame. You can also zoom in on it like a poster in the mall or central plaza.

And for whoever asked earlier, you can use the frame as many times as you want, I've already got tons of pics up in my pad.

My first virtual Home purchase! Three bucks well spent.

Probably won't buy another item until they give me a TV to play videos on. :D
 
I will probably buy it (on my US account) to test it.

Haven't used it since it was removed from Beta in early 08 (or late 07?). You didn't have control over the image besides choosing which one at that time.
 
Well, I just tested this.
It's far better than what it was in closed Beta.

The personal image list (when you choose) is instantaneous now and better presented (bouncy menus).
The sample images are a bit low res but my own images remained very detailed.

You can choose to edit the image with stretched (standard, four corners of image fits to four corners of frame), cropped (image ratio is upheld but some of it may disappear outside the frame since the image fills it all) and letterbox (whole image is shown with correct aspect ratio, bars over and under it).

You may rotate the image frame itself (and the image follows).
 
Buying digital shirts and costumes is one thing...I can almost see it...

But paying 3 dollars for a virtual picture frame is fucking mindblowingly to me.

Not hating on the people who do it, I just can't see any sense in it whatsoever.

You see more value in a virtual t-shirt than adding functionality to your game?

That's like saying you'd rather pay for new costumes for your character than be able to purchase the ability to map your own face onto it.

I can put pics on my HDD into the Home world now. That's much more valuable than a piece of clothing IMO.
 
I just wish they added more 'interactive games' that you could bring to your apartment like pool or arcade cabinets.

Sony could do something if they made an XNA type thing where they allowed amateur developers to make their own little arcade games for Home.

But the costumes and t-shirts are used all the time. Every time you walk around, people see them on you. It serves a purpose -- to make you stick out from everyone else in the game.

That's why it makes sense.

A picture frame that goes in your "home" will barely be seen by anyone else. There's no purpose to it.

It's starting to look like the 'beta' tag that's been thrown on home is a highly calculated move/excuse for them to ship it bare bones. Then have everyone buy the added functions that should have been there from day 1.

I dont like the idea for paying for it nor have an interest in getting it but you can use the frames on all your apartments and on your clubs which alot of ppls do use. I'm in a club myself. So certain ppls who use those things are getting their money's worth. I dont see this as a way for ppls to complain as you can use the XMB to send pics to anyone if you realy want to share.
 
the conference streaming works perfectly. but why the fuck do i always have to wait for the other movies? for example in the cinema. although i have a pretty good internet connection there is always a certain amount of loading and waiting :(.

They do. There is apparently a process they talked about a long time ago when Home came out. You can probably find it in the early info around the beta launch.
 
Has anyone been able to get into the Expert Maze in Alpha Zone 3???
I see people get in, but it says it's locked!
I beat all the other mazes too.

This right here is about the ONLY thing I'd pay for on Home...

Having my own virtual arcade with a Mortal Kombat 2, or a TMNT cabinet in it that anyone in my "House" could play is something I'd pay BUCKETS of cash to be able to do.

Have you been doing Staplers quests? You have to accept his altest quest for it to unlock.

I'm behind on the fragments (mising the latest 2 and number 14 "Zoom") I should really get caught up but they all seemed like way too much effort to figure out. :lol
Also after completing the expert maze check your holomail:
THOM is the Spy!
 
If I buy an item from my account's home store can my wife's avatar use it on her account? (sorry if asked before search is disabled)

No. Each account has its own unlocks.

Hadn't they talked about releasing the SDK for the flash/whatever it is that they use for the arcade cabinets? Granted it was probably another one of those pie in the sky promises, but I sort of wish they'd be on the ball about creating more arcade games if they aren't going to let the community do it themselves.

So a guy cant give a girl a PSN card so said girl can buy her shit?

I think he meant that the guy's have to buy the girl clothes as well as paying for clothes for themselves if their girlfriends (or "girlfriends") want to play on their system. And yes, it is a good marketing strategy.

I was thinking more along the lines of "gifting" items (clothes, home ornaments, etc) the same way that Itunes and Amazon does it, but your way works too.

You could have your wife use your account and have her save a female avatar then it would work.

Why doesn't anyone use the XI thread?

Yes. If you buy something for your male avatar, then only a male avatar can use the items. A guy could share his Home account with a female user but his clothes cant be used by her because the guy only bought guy stuff.

If you want to share your account with a female, you are gonna have to buy both female and male stuff under the same account.

I didn't even know there was an XI thread on Neogaf.

I was convinced that the spy was
Miguel, but Thom ahs been staring us in the face the entire time. I mean Thom was the one who put up the Veilcorp propaganda on the ticker even and was nearly totally absent for the last few conversations on Jess247.

Maybe I'll just use the Sony forums XI cheat sheet to get the 3 fragments I'm missing, 70% of the puzzles/quests are stupidly obscure anyway. :lol

One thing I've really enjoyed about XI is how well produced some of the 3D Alpha Zones are. It makes me wish more devs would take the tools and really do something with them, granted that seems to be happening... slowly.

Unless XI is some huge new playground/feature for Home I won't be spending nearly as much time in Home as I was, seeing as there's very quickly going to be little task to bring me back on a daily basis.

Oh well. It's not like I'll go cold turkey.

You cant gift the item, but you can gift a PSN card.

I guess its that way for privacy purposes too. Each person has their own account linked to their own PSN ID which stores their own purchases. Its not as if clothes are downloaded and only used locally like PSN games are.

I was thinking furnitures and items, I don't want to pay for that picture frame twice if you know what I mean.

When you say it like that it makes sense.
 
I have a question here: Does the "beat inFAMOUS demo get Cole's costume for HOME" thing finally work? I'm talking about Euro HOME btw.

I have to agree, I just bought the frames myself and I like how you can import your pics into your personal space.

I hopped into HOME last night for a few minutes to see what was up. Had to download a new patch (yet again), saw that they updated the chat text, which is a very nice improvement. I also went to the 'Presentation Podium' or something like that where the guy from the blog was interviewing a dev from Sucker Punch about Infamous. They were also playing the Infamous dev diaries at the theater. The Central Plaza has very cool new ads for God of War 3 everywhere but I get the feeling that these types of ads really need to have SOME kind of presence on the XMB. Yes, it would clutter the OS but it would also give the games some more visibility. I've tried HOME several times now and every time I used it I come away thinking about how much of a waste of time it is. I really think it was a big mistake for Sony, but then again maybe it wasn't made for me and apparently it's bringing in a ton of revenue, so what do i know .....

Are you... are you actually asking for ads on the XMB?

How do I unlock the inFamous stuff in EU Home? I've seen a Reaper in the Mall but I have no idea how he got that costume.

(I have beaten the game twice)
 
So why is there still no trophy room? The thing with the most interessting potential (at least for me) is still not in, although it was promised.
