This is the best news I've heard all day. Although... I don't know how much I'm going to believe in it. Home is reaching out and touching the la-la land of vaporware.

@J.howlett:

Can any member of the public go into the store and buy the disk or get it from PSN?

If it's not out, it's vapor, it doesn't matter how much code or assets there are (cf DNF)

"Products with unspecified release dates or long development times that outwardly demonstrate regular, verifiable progress in production are not normally labeled vaporware."

@rob all i'm saying is there are people using it now even though it's a small amount. i've seen more of home than DNF. i'm not trying to sell you on the phantom or anything.

Is anyone really excited for this anyway? I mean, people don't really play Second Life anymore, right?

I don't know. Second Life lost all that praise and hype that was surrounding it when it was discovered that Linden Labs was badly overestimating the number of people who actually played

It's certainly less significant, but probably still very popular.

But home is a whole different idea. A more interactive UI, and the seamlessness of Home's transition from Home to media to game to whatever is what will make or break it in the end

@ Drew

He's not trolling.I know that troll-o-detector got a little dull ever since pure trolls either became mature or don't comment very often anymore but you've got to know the difference.

And yes, I'm not excited for this.Not because I don't have a PS3, but because I think it's as a pointless waste of Sony's resources and I don't see myself actively using Home.To me, a console is something that plays Video Games and not a place where you can "hang out".To quote somebody's comment from Joystiq, "If I wanted to play Second Life, I would've played Second Life.".

With Sony shamelessly delaying Home over and over again, even the toughest fanboys seem to be loosing hope...

Yes, Sony has a lot of credibility when it comes to promising stuff.Especially when you remember two HDMI/Six USB controversy and their full backwards compatibility.

By the way, who's that Crocodile Man? I'm sure I saw him before...Captain Planet maybe...

That's bugging me too. It looks like Captain Planet, but i don't recall an anthropomorphic gator from that show. A rat-man (Verminous Scum), but not a gator

It could be from another DiC cartoon, though certainly not from a Hanna-Barbera one

Quick google + broodwich tell me it's from TMNT but I've never watched the 1987 series. But why does he feel so familiar then?

He's Leatherhead, children.

Why is he so familiar? Maybe because he was a boss in TMNT IV: Turtles in Time. You haven't played that, you say? Well why the hell not? Make that your homework.

He looks like a cartoony version of killer croc from Batman. It probably was TMNT though.

I had Leatherhead's action figure back in 1989. If you opened his mouth too far, the top of his head & jaw would pop off, making him quite freakishly awesome. He talked with a Cajun accent on the show.

Sony should back that up, give us pitchforks and torches and a few bricks, so that if it doesn't release, we can go raid thier studios as mobs.

All i know of the avatar system is this:

JPEG is definitely supported
Bitmap is definitely not

Do not try to upload using Internet Explorer, because it will fail

I never explored some of the other formats, since most of my avatars are SWAT Kats screen-captures which started in a native bmp format, and had to be converted to jpg

This consoles sucks, 360 is a microsoft piece of shit that have like an 90% Red ring of Dead percent and anybody that bought that malfunctioning have to be a retard or something, why it wasn't make by apple?

The PS3 is for ANZ and weebos that think Japan is the fucking best thing ever and that they should have won the war, go back to the land of pedophiles animu freaks.

The wii is for freaking babies and any people that has a wii and has more thans 3 years olds has to gos to the special olympics for being a retard hehehe.
