The service was down for around six hours and users were not able to access it. Sony says that the reason for the downtime is that the [...]
Oh wow, PlayStation Home is becoming a perfect example of how to get it all wrong all the time.
First they think it’s a great idea to replicate the annoying fact that we need to wait for things in real life by making us queue to play an arcade game in the system.
But that seems to [...]

In what is probably as much a promotion for Ubisoft as it is a test of Home’s abilities, SCEA announced that the Closed Beta users of PlayStation home will soon have access to various content from Ubisoft.

Unfortunately for fans and die-hard Sony PS3 users out there, Sony has announced that it still won't be delivering its much awaited Sony Playstation Home service any time soon, even though this means that they'd be a complete year behind schedule now.Sony doesn't seem to mind that it's losing all these opportunities at making money by being late at rolling out a product, but they should know that sometimes, perfectionists just don't cut it -- especially in the world of tech. By the time it releases Sony Playstation Home, Microsoft or Nintendo could potentially have come up with something else entirely that's better, which of course could kill Sony's efforts again.A lot of fans are upset about this, but sadly there's nothing else to do but just wait for Sony to release the darned thing alre
Una vez mas Sony acaba de informar que vuelve a retrasar la salida de Home de PS3.
Esta vez la excusa es que, han alargado la Beta durante todo el verano. Y tras ésto se hará pública.

We've heard a lot from Sony about the possibilities of Home, but IGN got a status report from someone actually in the Beta, who commented on aspects like character creation (it's extremely detailed), the Trophy Room (not actually there yet), and communication (volume changes based on your proximity to the noise). First up, the good news: Home works. What I mean by that is it's easy to go in and socialize and have a fun time doing it. People generally have a good time. It has a very open atmosphere, so you can pretty much walk up to anyone and start chatting with them. I've made friends in Home that I play online games such as Resistance or MotorStorm with. The Home beta has left me very excited about the final product, as it should be even more enjoyable when everyone I know has access to it. And now the bad news: Some features that they've showed us since GDC are still not there, and nothing from E3 is. Sony also had a monthly roadmap of improvements/features/place
Este es el ultimo trailer presentado en Japón del entorno Home que seguro cambiara la forma de proceder al jugar a una Playstation3 por su gran cantidad de posibilidades.

Al keynote di Phil Harrison tenuto al GDC 2007, ormai divenuto storico, si era già menzionato il fatto che la Beta di Playstation Home sarebbe uscita prima dell’ estate. Cominciano a girare i primi rumors riguardo alcune anteprime che sarebbero in giro per il web.
Bene, un utente di Gametrailers.com, ha postato uno di questi video che ci presenta la versione, non ancora definitiva, Beta del servizio Sony per la PS3. Si può notare, anche se la qualità non è delle migliori, come si presenteranno le stanze che saranno di proprietà degli utenti, così come possiamo notare anche altri dettagli inediti che non si erano visti nel trailer ufficiale.
Ecco il video:

All you PlayStation fans behold as screen shots images of Sony’s PlayStation Home have been revealed!
If you already don’t know this Sony self styled ‘Second Life like’ package, will allow you to build your own personalised space. Features will not only include avatars and achievements but the package will offer public hang outs, personal apartments and voice chat. It will also include casual games such as pool, bowling and arcade machines allowing you to invite your fellow PlayStation geeks to join in on the fun.
As for user-generated content, PS Home will enable you to hang your own pictures on your apartment walls and share videos with friends.
Sony is hoping that PlayStation Home will give the PS3 a greater advantage in the next gen gaming wars, especially as it appears far more advanced than Xbox Live which may even result in some Sony PlayStation converts!
There is no word on when it will reach Europe but until then we can only offer you with a fix of
Pochi giorni fa è stata pubblicata su Gamasutra un’ intervista a Phil Harrison riguardo i punti di discussione al suo, ormai famoso keynote, tenuto al GDC 2007.
I temi dell’ intervista fanno perno sulla nuova applicazione ideata e realizzata da Sony: Playstation Home. Se ne descrive il funzionamento, le features e l’hardware. Le idee presenti e i progetti futuri.
Innanzitutto si parla di come e quando è nata l’ idea di Playstation Home:
Il progetto nacque già quando la PS2 era al suo massimo splendore. Si voleva creare un modo 3D dove i giocatori potessero incontrarsi e condividere le loro esperienze videoludiche. Una specie di sala giochi online.
Purtroppo, però, nonostante la PS2 fosse un console di successo, ci siamo scontrati con le insuperabili limitazioni hardware che presentava, tra cui la mancanza di un hard-drive e la limitata potenza del processore.
Playstation Home, per le sue peculiarità, porta spontaneamente al paragone con Second Life:

Sony has recently revealed one of its newest online and FREE features for the Playstation 3. It's called "Home" and is basically a mix between Nintendo's Mii system, Xbox Live Achievements, and an open sandbox world. I guess it is all part of Sony's evolving online plans. The question is will...

NOTE: I wasn’t here this past weekend. If you don’t know already, I’m in the USAR (US Army Reserve), and this past weekend was my drill weekend. Sorry, but I simply wasn’t here.
In a recent interview with… whoever (the person who e-mailed this to me Copy/Pasted, not linked), Microsoft’s Chris Satchell was quoted as saying that the Playstation Home has, quote, “definitely taken some concepts that we originated.”
Continuing, Satchell continued to attack the Home idea, repeatedly pointing out how it’s not very “game oriented” and pointing out that Xbox Live (the still superior online service, without question) is, in fact, focuses on the games whereas Home would not. Satchell said, quote, “I think theres is very much a vision that people see it and it looks cool but it’s fundamentally separate from the games - or at least what they’ve shown so far.”
I’m am forced to agree with Satchell. The

Dentro de las noticias más impactantes del día de ayer, estuvo el anuncio de Playstation Home.
Sony planea lanzar esta mezcla de “juego/chatroom” para que todos los usuarios del Ps3 puedan reunirse en un mundo virtual, y conocerse, compartir ideas, y jugar simples juegos.
Al parecer, será una especie de Second Life, el popular juego online masivo cuyo mayor atractivo es la posibilidad de explorar, comunicarse, y crear. A la mezcla, se le añadirá también algo de Sims, pues cada usuario tendrá un departamento para decorar (junto con los trofeos ganados en otros juegos, como los achievements del Xbox 360) con fotos, muebles, y lo que sea.
Interesante propuesta de Sony, sobre todo porque será un valor agregado a la consola bastante útil y que, gracias al interés que Second Life, Sims, y los Miis del Wii han causado, podrían atraer a un público más “casual” a la costosa consola de $600.
Acá un video demostrando las características de Home, que estar
Good news for the PlayStation camp, full details of Sony's PlayStation Home have been revealed, and it ain't no slacker. Alongside those avatars and achievements we heard about earlier, the "service" seems to be a new-gen Second Life killer, with public hangouts, personal apartments (to show off those fancy prizes you've been racking up in recent frag fests) and voice chat. The seeming-MMO even includes casual games such as pool, bowling and arcade machines embedded into the world, but at any time you can invite a fellow resident to join in on any PlayStation Network-capable game. As for user-generated content, PS Home allows you to hang your own pictures on your apartment walls and share videos with friends. You can of course dress up your avatar in assorted virtual clothings -- for a price -- all while enjoying "dynamic advertising" of some sort. A large scale beta goes live in April, with the full product to be launched this fall. Make sure to hit up the read link for a gallery
Dos elementos a destacar del rumor publicado por kotaku. Por un lado la reacción de Sony: por anticiparse al anuncio oficial les castigan quitando la invitación a sus eventos y dejarán de enviarles información (aunque al final han hecho las paces). El otro elemento es la aplicación en sí, que al parecer se va a llamar Playstation Home y que funcionará en la PS3. Será una especie de hogar virtual en la que el usuario tendrá un avatar (al estilo de los avatares Mii de la Wii). Cuando se complete un juego se conseguirán "juguetes" o elementos con los que el avatar puede interactuar. Dicho así parece una chorrada estilo tamagochi, pero los planes de Sony con Playstation Home es la de construir una red social tipo MySpace en la que los usuarios son representados por estos avatares. Llevamos mucho tiempo diciendo que quienes tiene muchas cartas en la batalla por el salón de la casa son las consolas de videojuegos.
