Everyone was bashing it then cause it really didn't have any worthwhile content that would make one want to spend their free time in Home rather than just playing a PS3 game. I think it's fair to continue to criticize it since it has had plenty of time to grow and expand yet still boils down to an avatar and a few costumes (at least it did last time I logged on). It's free so it's kind of hard to complain, but it still doesn't really offer anything all that enticing (at least not in my opinion).

wow, seriously? it's free. home doesnt need some fancy bullcrap, cause how much did you pay for it? none. do you have to pay for online as well? nope. and besides, they are trying to improve it, are they not.

The "Home still exists" bit is indeed tired, but it's also sorta indicative of the state of Home. It's in this weird limbo where, yeah, they keep adding costumes and living spaces, but it's also clearly on the back-burner and not being used to its full potential. I swear, every week the thing takes longer to load in and for what?
I use Home more than the average gamer out there, so I'd be the last to say it needs to go. However, Sony really needs to revamp their plan on it (if they even have one).

No big deal. I can see how it could be construed as obnoxious given there's no context for me to show my tone. Not to mention, none of you had the context to know my opinion is deeper than "Home is stupid." Like I said before, it's free so there's really no reason for me to complain, but even with it freely available whenever I want I never find myself motivated to use it.

Maybe they should put a bit more effort into actually getting the games on the PSN, before they start messing about with stuff like Home costumes.

Home is pointless. I can view trailers and play demos from the crossbar menu. why load up a huge environment and waste time (and money on costumes and stupid virtual crap) when I could be playing games? I guess I'm too old to be Sony's core audience in Home.
