IMO the goal of Home is more comparible to WoW than to Second Life. You can surf the internet while your in Home. Basicly you could be typing in this forum while talking over the mics... nothing new to PC gamers, but nothing wrong with it either. When you understand what acheivement points have...

"Friendship is free" for 1/12 of the fiscal year..... and only on crappy games.... Thanks Santasoft.

Well said... and as a former WoW addict being away from the game only made me want to go back to the game. The problem IMO of this topic is when we delve deep into the human brain we find even our love of our parents is based on addiction. To me the real question of if something is a "negative"...

Anyone who has played Everquest or WoW knows the addiction of those games is social (the story and graphics are bad jokes IMO). On the flip side though the addiction of most 1 player games is anti-social violence (thanks for your contribution to society FPSs). Making a good story is hard, but...

By being as antisocial as a racist 15 year old..... every time I find one in Home I cock slap him down a few pegs around 60 other people.... then they run back to their precious Xbox Club of solitary racist Ahole kids. KKK stopped having public displays because people started throwing fruit at...

The clubhouses are free. You must have a PSN account to get the clubhouse (credit card) presumably so that if you post pedofile shit on your walls and invite a bunch of kids they will have your real name on file.... or copywrite shit, but I doubt Sony will jump in front of that bullet anytime...

Version 1.0 (released a few days ago) has been really fun.... the only way to describe it is standing around talking to people, but who would ever want to just talk to others about pointless topics or watch videos (forums with mics). The down side is they are trickling content to us "beta...

As I look at the Need for Speed backdrop on this website, or the Mirror's edge backdrop on Gametrailers.... I find it humorous to think that any site making money from the developers parent company doesn't whore their scores upm for cash. I find Gametrailers is great to get enough info on a...

Can someone explain to me how Netflix is a touted as a 360 selling point. Basicly it's a way to force American morons to give M$ more money for something Sony users get for free.... anyone else see a pattern here? Buy a 360+Harddrive+PC+XBL account+Netflix account = download a movie OR Buy a...

So Sony is deciding to keep it's content exclusive..... did I miss the time machine ride back to the 80s when this was new to consoles? Now that it's Sony's strongest asset (video entertainment) it's somehow different? Comparing entertainment to windows is a bit of a stretch..... this was wrote...

Well considering you can download torrents onto the PS3 harddrive. You can download emulators onto the PS3 harddrive. Then obviously when an emulaor comes out for 360, Gears2 will be on PC and PS3.... technicly.

Personally I don't find the appeal of survival horror games. I find they are just a way to force emotional responces without the work that an artistic developer does to get emotional responces. While I do enjoy teamwork mutiplayer games (hearing others scream over the mic would be funny... but...

I am pissed I have to wait an extra week... looks like Farcry 2 just made a sale though. Look at the big picture though. It's a smart move IMO since this will be the Sony flagship game, and unlike other games that only sell for the 1st month this will sell for the next 5 years easily. Ofcourse...

Games decide the "console war" winner. Developers make the games. Piracy will decide the "console war winner"

Hadda bump this since Fallout3, Farcry2, Fable2, and Gears of War2 are all on the pirated games list even before release (the big games). Before people had to make the choice... buy it on release or wait for the pirated version later at an unknown date. Now the choice is get it early for...
