Why go out when you can stay in your playstation home? Why go out clubbing when you can go clubbing in playstation home? Why go shopping for clothes when you can shop for virtual clothes in playstation home? Why go to the movies when you can watch the movies in playstation home? Is there anything you can’t do in playstation home?
Virtual playstation home Afro £1
Virtual playstation home bubble machine £3

Virtual sex in playstation home….. priceless

PS Home.
Will do for your social life what Wii Fit did for your figure.
————————————-
I remember when Giga Pets were popular and I’d hear stories about families that would have to give away their real pets because of neglect. I guess friends and family are next.

M&S style ad!
This isn’t just any ordinary virtual home, this is a virtual Playstation Home

Sony had this to say
“our next game will redefine the point of owning a ps3. Our new game is a new breakthrough simulation of your avatar living in your home. You can sit in your house and play home on your virtual ps3 in your virtual house, walk around, and sit outside of your house in hopes someone will walk by and want to see your 10$ virtual ikea couch with matching wii fit white footrest. But the action doesn’t stop there! you can actually leave your home and walk for ten minutes making motor sounds into your microphone wishing you had a car. When you get to the mall it will say Home all over it in case you forget what game you are playing you can then buy virtual clothes that you can wash if you want at the virtual laundromat. The social scope of this game is amazing, its like your on your couch but you actually fell like you’re at the mall having profanities screamed at you by 12 year olds! we’ll be hoping you enjoy the fun of playing second home as much as we did making it take as much of your life and money as possible. so get out your ps3 and wait like there’s no toworrow until we release home in 2009…we hope.
End
(please ignore all the grammatical errors)

with each screenshot released by sony we are that much closer to Playstation Stopmotion Home. PS SM Home is the first online game where “lagging” is not a problem since SM is endless lag. with PS SM Home you get special features such as “slowdown”, “dropped calls”, “freezing”, “crashing”, and pure “unadulturated frustration”. it will take so long getting around / launching games you’ll spend all your time in Home. i know you’re thinking about avoiding PS SM Home, which is why we are replacing your XMB with Home. One final note - no more need for in-game XMB, we lied about developing in-game XMB to buy time to introduce Playstation Stopmotion Home !!!!

Playstation home. Because sitting on an ACTUAL chair isn’t half as fun as sitting on a VIRTUAL chair.

Welcome to the Future:
The future of Playstation Home.
In the Future, Home will be completely uninhabited as hundreds of thousands of people get bored with it in a matter of weeks leaving all those wonderful spaces completely deserted. This gives you the power to play video games all day and still not come into contact with another human being for free . . . just like the old days. You’ll marvel at being able to enjoy the scenic views of warehouse #6, the main lobby and other empty buildings. Home will be a new online game err experience, and like most online ‘experiences’ it will be devoid of life pretty quickly as its users grow tired of it.
If you live in your mother’s basement you may as well own a game where you can pretend you enjoy a real house.
Since weird things can happen in the future so you may as well start pretending you’re the last person on Earth.
Why spend $600 on improving your real home when you can have a virtual home that plays movies you all ready have for free.

Err that last comment may need to be edited, feel free to arrange or cut bits of it.

Why play meaningfull games on your playstation when you can use the $600 console to play a game available to anyone via a computer.

Home is going to be the sh*! for people who don’t have addictive personalities. I just think its sketchy it’s a chick avatar in a tiny skirt. “Hey lets practice following unaware girls around like we do in real life!”

I have but one thing to say… Sony… Apple would like their glass staircase back…

Playstation Home: Sick of seeing flying purple c*cks in secondlife? Come see them in Playstation Home, utilizing the full power of the cell processor to render any and all c*cks in real time!
18 DaDillsta // Feb 28, 2008 at 4:06 pm
Welcome Home, where all the people are forced to be stuck to one basic look and all the people look like they just got back from the crazy parade. Its basically a rip off of Second Life without the fun! Join in today and you can play this crappy game for free and even get things we call “achievements” in the form of a stupid trophy! Invite your friends too, oh wait no one with a PS3 has friends…

Hmmm….. Home may be the best thing ever for sarcasticgamer.com. Now, instead of writing a totally new parody song for home we can just replace the words “Second Life” with “Stupid Home”. Can’t wait to walk 20 minutes to find out if my PS3 deleted my save file! This is just the kind of game that every conservative wants: you are an unoriginal conformist who’s life choices are a) Green Shirt (giggle) b) Blue Shirt (giggle) or, the ever popular c) Stick virtual gun in virtual mouth. Wonder if suicide’s an option. Does it totally brick your console? Can you not play any games (not that there are any good ones in the first place)?
