Home is open - EXPERIENCE the EXPERIENCE

[Lucretius]

Hey, Demi!  Ferricide made an avatar after Nick Frost's character Mike from Spaced http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwJ0wAXjdjU.  All that's missing is the A Team theme song.  Here's his Mike character with my Vulva character.



Home is poo.

[demi]

lol. its like spaced if it were extremely gay.

[Joe Molotov]

I made a character, went to arcade all the bowling lanes and arcades were full, turned it off.

[Rman]

Do you guys know that clubs max out at 31 users.  Lame. 

Also, they're also charging a monthly fee to maintain the club.  LOLZ

[AdmiralViscen]

Wait, that fee isn't one time only?

Honestly if I have to pay a fee then clubs should have 100+ members. Then they could make free clubs for like 10 members so it could just be me and my IRL friends.

[Lucretius]

lol. its like spaced if it were extremely gay.

Or two extremely gay guys' take on Spaced.   

[demi]

Not too far from the original then

[Arbys Roast Beef Sandwich]

wait what? That's stupid.

[BlueTsunami]

The fact that one is being charged for a virtual space is hilarious.

I went Home with a girlfriend of mine. We just wanted to check out the places together.

They were half raping her. I wish there was a "punch in face"  command in the game.

Guys are such assholes.

Your girlfriend has a PS3? oh dear

[AdmiralViscen]

sounds like she's easily impressed LOL

[Hitler Stole My Potato]

Has anyone bothered to check out the GAF club(s)?  I gotta imagine it'd be like visiting Jonestown right before they drank the kool-aid.

[AdmiralViscen]

My PS3 has evolved from booting all the other computers off the network, to booting itself off the network when I try to download Home 1.03. I can send messages and sync trophies just fine but when I try the update it just kills the connection at around 6%.

That's the end of that lol.

[Rman]

Too easy to grief in Home.  It's the only fun thing to do.

[bork]

Home.

I like that the last line at the end of this says "We really got to pay for this?"  

Seems so boring.  I don't think I'm going to bother downloading it, not even for the lulz.

[Arbys Roast Beef Sandwich]

Having neat little arcade machines are the only redeeming feature of HOME, but Namco/Sony had to screw the pooch by having you launch an entirely different application whenever you want to use them.

IMO it's not easy enough, and that's the problem.  A keyboard would solve alot of issues but I'm not about to go out and buy one for fucking Home.

[AdmiralViscen]

WTF, I just played 20 minutes of lag free Resistance 2 multi but I can't get more than 6% through a Home patch.

No, a girlfriend.

She bought it for Blu Ray. So I recommended her to install Home for fun.

Well... it was fun, until some guys started to act like distinguished mentally-challenged fellows around her. We went to the bowling area and sat on one of the couches. Suddenly a guy runs towards her and starts dancing.
She could get up but could not get away because the dude blocked her.

What an asshole. I hope Sony kinda fixes this.

  at the griefer and you taking it seriously.

[duckman2000]

So let me get this straight. You bunch of wankers go into Home with the expressed intent of griefing and generally acting like jackasses, and then you actually have the audacity to bitch about the experience? Not only does it seem to have delivered precisely what you were hoping it would, but you're on a fundamental level the "problem." Sounds like a killer app, huh?

[CurseoftheGods]

Have you ever taken anger management classes?

[duckman2000]

Have you ever taken anger management classes?

Maybe I should try griefing in Home, eh?

What anger, by the way? I'm just saying, judging by intent and impressions, Home seems like one hell of a killer app among xbobs.

You could grief in PSU too and it was more fun : (

But was it free?

[AdmiralViscen]

Is it the griefers who are complaining about griefing?

Kind of

If we are factoring free -

Second Life is more fun to grief in

Runescape is more fun to grief in

Habbo Hotel is more fun to grief in

But I guess those killer apps do not stack up to the likes of Home

[pilonv1]

someone change this so it says HOME

It'll only be considered a killer app if I can effectively grief colossal sfag douchebags such as yourself. 

See you in the Uncharted bar.


And BTW, you might as well take me off your ignore list you fucking twit since I know you're reading this anyway.

[demi]

LOL

[Brehvolution]

I haven't even tried to get in yet.

Apparently not, considering the popularity of Home around here.

I haven't even tried to get in yet.

I blame the apparent shittiness of the application itself.

It's just a simple edit.  The clapping gifs were on GAF... from some terrible home trailer.

Improved for EB:

[duckman2000]

as of right now, it just looks like a major waste of resources.

That you guys are spending time in.

[CHOW CHOW]

I'm not even going to download this piece of shit, and I'm an Sfag.  I don't want any trace of this faggotry in my PS3.

[Eel O'Brian]

it reserves three gigs of hard drive space

i want my three gigs back

[dammitmattt]

Wow.  Home leaves a great first impression:

- I have a nice view in my home space, a view that is completely meaningless since it's not one open, consistent world.  And where is my giant trophy room that was promised long ago?  This was the only moderately cool feature they've ever shown.
- I have to load up the Central Plaza?!?  WTF?!?  Why isn't this shit automatically streaming during the tutorial?!?

5 minutes later thanks to the shitty PS3 wireless ethernet adaptor...

- Why are all avatars so ugly?  What in the hell is everyone doing?  This hub is useless.
- Let me dance

5 minutes later...

- Okay, that was fun exactly once.  Let me go bowling.  Oh fuck, I have to download the bowling alley.

5 minutes later...

- I can't bowl, shoot pool, or play anything but Echochrome since everything is full.  What a waste of time.  Let me look at the mall, which of course needs to be downloaded.

5 minutes later...

- Wow.  This mall is empty.  Why can't I see the prices until I click on a product and why can't I see the categories?  $5 for a house?  What the fuck?!?  Let me check out the theater

5 minutes later...

- Lame. Let me check out the FC2 and Uncharted game spaces.

10 minutes later...

- Pretty, but lame.  Why the hell am I fucking around with this when I can be playing Motorstorm 2?!?

That was my first hour with Home.  I got about 5 minutes of enjoyment out of dancing inside other people's avatars, but that's it.  What a fucking waste of time and resources that could be better used in a variety of ways:
- Improving the integration of everything into XMB ala NXE
- Getting rid of download installations
- Improving game update installation times
- Improving system update installation times
- Better integrating the store
- Better integrating trophies

[dammitmattt]

It's already there on your XMB.  Are you just pissed because you can't have eyebrows with shaved lines in them?

[pilonv1]

As an aside, props to Sony for putting Sleepyhead in their commercial.

The Passion Pit song?

[hyp]

broke

[Lucretius]

They took away voice chat, but they gave us beards.

I just installed the update to see if I could finally make a bearded bearish avatar that somewhat resembles me.  After downloading and installing the update, you have to re download the areas you already downloaded before.  So after a long wait to download the Central Plaza I'm finally in Home again.  I immediately go to the wardrobe to create my new woofy self.  The new beard selection consists of one beard.  And it's a fine beard if you are Santa Clause or a Civil War general, but for anyone else it's totally not appropriate.  There are now two goatees, but both are chin only and cannot be paired with any of the mustaches.  but there are TWO choices for sideburns now, so Fruit Brute should be happy.

But why am I wasting my time with Home anyway?  I'm only 38 hours into Persona 4... long way to go.

[Jansen]

no more slurping noises as i fellate some random user

SIGH

[AdmiralViscen]

I think I'm just gonna delete home, I'm never going on that shit again.

Sony will be lucky if I ever play a PS3 game again after the shit they pulled with my gamesaves.

[FlameOfCallandor]

now my character is in some massive virtual conga line or something

AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAHAHAHAAAAA
