I’m baffled by this, I can’t tell what the orphans are supposed to represent. Idependant developers that want to make their games for the console? bah, I don’t know
If anyone has been in the Beta the Bowling game is pretty infamously bad. There’s no animation of your character throwing the ball. And the ball just magically gets thrown down the lane.
Actually, the beta for Home just opened up to most of the people that downloaded the home theme from the Playstation Store, I’m assuming this has to do with that fact.
But all in all, I’m quite impressed at how well Home seems to be working on a social level. I’ve met a few people on so far that have been nothing but polite, and had a relatively good experience of the whole thing, despite my reservations. I wish there were more clothing and furniture options but… That will come with time. The feature that allows you to see what other people are playing and join them in that game at the press of a button is incredibly useful.
PS3 had promised from the start that it would offer backwards-compatibility with all PS1&2 games. However, they’re now making cheaper versions that do not offer backwards-compatibility.
Naw, the orphans are Sony fans/people who own PS3s. Sony said that home would be amazing, yet it still hasn’t been finished and there’s apparently nothing to do in it.
Lolz, yep I agree it’s about PlayStation 3 promising to be a home of BC content (Phil Harrison promised BC would always be a “key value of the PlayStation brand”) and the reality of there being no way to play old games via disc and the online store in many territories sucking complete balls by being empty. Gg vidcons.

I honestly don’t wish to flame here, but was this truly not an option until now? The 360 has had that ability since launch and I can’t imagine not having been able to join whoever’s playing CoD4 at a moment’s notice…
That said, the orphans in the comic clearly parallel the peas in one of the more recent VGCats comics in that they are loyal fans who have been abandoned by what they believed was their one true savior.
put simply, ps3 home is just second life on the playstation
the only things that are added are things that would be almost necessary for it to be on a console
seems kinda like a waste of time to me
