Sony Home Q+A Revealed

Sony have released an extensive Q+A document aimed at third-party developers. The document is very concise and explains at length the various functionality og Home.

Here is the main points dug out by PS3Fanboy.com:
  • HOME is making its way to the PSP and Mobile devices in the future.
  • Along with an integrated friend's list, you can move instantaneously across HOME's "World Map", or walk on foot if you'd please.
  • User-created content will be fun and all, but don't forget that you can auction off your HOME-related goods and your user-created content to gain "revenue" (we're not sure if this is real money or play money... probably play money, unless Sony really wants to generate a virtual economy)
  • Your choice of music can be "played" in your personal space, but it can't be given or shared with others.
  • Avatars will only resemble adults and not children (so no kiddie-seduction, those of you who have such issues)
  • Your "Private Space" is just that -- private. Do whatever you want. Also, only people on your buddy list may enter your Private Space.
  • Retailers can have their own lobbies for commercial operations -- also, advertising will play a large part in keeping HOME free. If you roam around on foot, expect billboards for Verizon or something.

I agree, the Home feature is definitely turning a lot of heads at the moment. Im happy to see the inclusion of good privacy controls via the buddy list and the newly mentioned "Private Space".

Of what I have seen (the trailors and screen shots) I dont see why anyone would not walk to their places they want to get to it looks that good. Cant wait till beta testing next month (i hope)

well i can see why they put the feature in to not walk...only cause after a year or so you will probably get tired of having to walk everywhere. so after exploring when you want to and when you want to just go to the place you want to be expecially if it is like a game or somthing you can just zip right there...but trust me when i get home i will be doing a lot of exploring
