Playstation Home Release

Is this free with the PS3 then?

Ive seen the little icon but didnt bother clicking it as I expect some sort of charge

Also, what exactly is it? I get a little character that I can walk around a 'virtual world' and talk to people?

Is there a point to it?

Click on the icon and download it, it's free. Some stuff is charged for like clothes and furniture and extra houses. Rest is free. Try it out.

For those of you who have been dancing and chatting your days away in PlayStation Home, Sony salutes you -- and is going to give you some new reasons to play.

This week, the much-anticipated Red Bull space is going to launch, according to the PlayStation Blog. We've seen screens of this section of Sony's social application before, but tomorrow you'll get to experience this tropical island, get inside a Red Bull plane, and compete against other racers on the public course. Not to be outdone, individual stores for Ligne Roset and Diesel will launch as well.

Looking ahead, the post also detailed how you can get your hands on Killzone 2 Home content. If you pre-order Killzone 2 from ******.com, you'll get exclusive ISA Soldier and Helghast Assault Trooper costumes -- pieces for your head, torso, legs, hands and feet -- for your Home avatar. The codes will be sent to you after Killzone is released on Feb. 27, 2009. If that wasn't enough, there's also going to be news this week about how you can get your virtual hands on Resident Evil: Degeneration T-shirts for your Avatar.

Look at EA sports complex for home coming in the spring,
Electronic Arts Inc today announced its initial plans for the PlayStation Home Beta for the PLAYSTATION 3 computer entertainment system, the 3D social gaming community that allows users to interact, communicate and share gaming experiences online. EA's support of the PlayStation Home Beta will begin with the EA SPORTS Complex, which is currently in development and is slated to launch this Spring.

"We're proud to support the PlayStation Home Beta with a very robust offering from EA SPORTS," said Peter Moore, president of EA SPORTS. "As part of our continued commitment to the connected experience and the digitization of our business, the EA SPORTS Complex is a rich new online environment that presents a compelling and immersive social gaming experience for the global sports audience."

EA worked closely together with Sony Computer Entertainment to ensure that the EA SPORTS Complex space within PlayStation Home would be a compelling experience for all EA SPORTS fans, with a space designed for both casual and hardcore gamers. Gamers will be able to play exclusive new EA SPORTS multiplayer games, meet and interact with EA SPORTS fans, view daily, weekly and annual leaderboards to see how they compare against the rest of EA SPORTS Nation, as well as watch trailers and other content from some of their favorite EA SPORTS games.

EA is currently working with Sony Computer Entertainment on further label support of PlayStation Home Beta, and will announce plans in the near future.

EA SPORTS is the leading interactive sports software brand in the world, with top-selling titles and franchises including Madden NFL football, FIFA Soccer, NHL hockey, NBA LIVE basketball, NCAA Football, Tiger Woods PGA TOUR and NASCAR racing.

that ea space does look pretty good, but they really need to add some stuff into it... theres absolutely no reason for me to go on it at the moment.
 
Been on the Red Bull Air Race all night! WOW awesome! Me and a few mates were trying to break 49 seconds but just didnt manage it in the end! Got 47 seconds but that was taking away a 10 second penalty so obviously didnt count. This game has changed my opinion on Home now, its starting to pick up a bit, if more things at this level come along Home will be awesome!
