Re: PS Home [Impressions Thread] {1.0 Beta}

Let's start the 'GRENADE' game... basically shout "GRENADE!!!" in front of a bunch of people, then sit down instantly... everyone who doesn't sit down would be dead... so if no one sits down, inform them that they all fail and need to sit down when someone shouts "GRENADE!!!"

If we can actually get this to be a big game in Home then it'd be full of win :lol:

I think it's got real potential to deliver content to peoples homes and to launch games , neither of which have really been implemented yet. I look forward to more revision and what they can do with the platform that they've created.

Yeah...

But so far Home hasn't really impressed me at all...

Allthough that might change when the game areas/Disel Store/Red Bull Air Race is opened...

Yep so far not something that's amazing at all.

Yep as I mentioned there's a lot to be added before it makes it worthwhile, I guess that's why it's in beta :)

As far as i know, guys in the US has already gotten the gaming areas open... And there has been discussion that it will open next week in EU(it's not official).

But like you said, atm it's in the beta stage, and as we all know by now that betas are always like this...

Good thing is that there is only one way where we can go from here, and that is up(hopefully)...

Once I was finally able to log in, it was a ... decent experience.

Though, I can tell where the priorities with the Mall are with Sony. One of the largest structures in the Central Plaza filled with microtransaction-based stores.

The social aspects are decent, but I guess I'm starting to show my age here when I realize I'm one of the oldest people online in my Home shard.

"How old are you all? I'm 10."
"13"
"13"

Ugh.

Re: PS Home [Impressions Thread] {1.0 Beta}

More people need keyboards :/ I don't have a headset but should probably bug my bro to get one... though it's probably better if we didn't get one since I know it'd just be hundreds of random 10-13yr old screaming at each other...

Got to play Pool, the arcade game, a game of chess... and then just been serving everyone with the running man dance... and then shouting 'GRENADE' and sitting down...

It's amazing how many under age kids are in there... And you are supposed to be 18 or over to get in...

@Dan

You gotta play Echochrome and IceBreaker... And that's because of this

Echochrome -
Receive 4000 points on Level A (gloves, shirt, pants, shoes that resemble echochrome character)
Receive 6,000 points on Level B (shirt)
Receive 10,000 points on level A (trophy*)
Receive 10,000 points on Level B (trophy*)
Receive 20,000 points on Level C (table)
Recieve 20,00 points on Level C (trophy*)

Ice Breaker (Level Unlocked may depend on score) -
Beat level 5 (beanie)
Beat level 8 (shirt)
Level 13 (pants)
Level 16 (boots)
Level 20 (trophy*)

*Trophies are Furniture, under the Ornaments Category

I won the Echochrome suit. And it's ok, but i doubt that i'll ever use it(think Storm Troopers from Star Wars)...

I think i read from somewhere that there is some prizes from pool and bowling too, but i haven't found out what they are...

Re: PS Home [Impressions Thread] {1.0 Beta}

Ah I was playing IceBreaker, couldn't think of the name (and couldn't think of the 'original game' name either, since that games been remade soo many times)

Didn't know echoChrome was in Home... is it like a full version of it? Since I'm tempted to buy the game as it was kinda fun plus they annouced about a patch with 1,000 levels...

If i remember right, there is also a third game in the arcade room... But i can't remember it's name atm...

Re: PS Home [Impressions Thread] {1.0 Beta}

There's a different arcade game in the Uncharted area. I'm pretty sure it was there. Didn't get a chance to play it though.

Also, I tried the Echochrome game last night, the one in Home is completely different than the demo I tried for the actual PSN release.
