Some more details about Home, which I'm kinda excited to see. I wish I had had a PS3 when the beta sign ups were starting, from what video I've seen it looks pretty neat.

<-----not impressed with Home

Sony just wants to separate themselves from Microsoft, which is fine, but it is coming at the expense of PS3 owners. Xbox live is the best multiplayer setup out there and nothing Sony can come up with will outtop it. It seems to me that Sony should just give in to consumer deman and come up with something similiar to Microsoft as far as an online community. I would happily play more PS3 games if they would include a multiplayer that is actually fun. They aren't implementing something like Live because they don't want to give Microsoft the credit for creating something that works. IMO, Sony needs to get over themselves and just copy it. Online play will be a huge factor in who wins the console wars, if a winner is declared at all considering all the factors for judging.

I do like that Little planet thing though, very creative. But will it be fun?
