Default Re: Playstation Home Delayed... Again

I'm guessing the open beta will be as much of a beta as Gmail by fall. Its a distinction to fall back on if something goes horribly wrong, but for all practical purposes, it is the full product, as complete as any software that receives regular updates can be.

Still disappointing news, but I'd rather see it done right than rushed out. If in-game XMB still makes it out by summer, that would take a lot of the pressure off for me. That's the functionality I really care about. The rest of Home occupies the same space as achievements; they're great auxiliary features, but I can do without them.

I was never really interested in it, personally.

I don't think it changes anything.
If you're buying a PS3 for Playstation Home, you're pretty fucked up.

That's like buying a Wii, because you can make a Mii.

Then you aren't hanging out with the right people.

Though I guess the appeal of the Miis is you can use them in Wii Sports right away and they do carry over to a lot of games.

As for Home, I kind of agree. It isn't a selling point IMO. It will be a cool feature, but I really don't think anyone is straddling the fence based on its release.

Hmm, no, it's more like buying an alienware pc to play second life.
