Sony to Launch “Home” Virtual Community for PS3
By
Sony Corporation has announced that its much delayed virtual community for owners of the PlayStation 3 game console will launch worldwide this Thursday. “Home” has been running in beta for that past few months and after many delays is ready to be rolled out. PS3 owners will be able to download Home software and create three-dimensional avatars to interact with friends and other PS3 owners. Multiplayer games such as Motostorm and SOCOM will be easier to organize as well.
The new service is aimed at giving users a place to interact with other PS3 users.
As in the “Second Life” virtual world, Home users create online characters or avatars. They can chat with other visitors, play games and customise their own sites in the virtual world.
