Hold on to your seats, Home-people, because I have some news that is going to blow you away. To start, EA SPORTS has brought the NFL into PlayStation Home. That’s right – you’ll now be able to represent your favorite franchises (Go Steelers!) by sporting your favorite team’s jersey while in-world. These jerseys are now available in the EA Sports Complex (and the Home Mall) and cover every team in the entire league (32 jerseys total). With v1.3 now live on your PlayStation 3s and sporting universal game launching functionality, PlayStation Home has truly become the destination for all of you football fans. Log in, toss on your favorite jersey to let your fellow man knows what’s up, launch into online co-op games of Madden NFL 10, and then return to Home to do it again and again. Never before has finding a friend to sack the ‘back with been easier. Bring the wood!
You’ve all been waiting since last Thursday’s v1.3 core client update for the highly-anticipated camera item, and that’s why we’re happy to announce that every one of you devoted PlayStation Home community members will now have a free camera. You heard me – free! This camera will automatically appear in your inventory today and will allow you to take photos from the 1st and 3rd person perspective. Any pictures you take will immediately be saved to the “Photo” section of your XMB where you can then share these photos both in-world and out, whether it is in the Picture Frames that decorate your personal spaces or on Flickr, Twitpic, or Photobucket accounts.
You’ll also find two new spaces have been released in PlayStation Home today– the PixelJunk Museum and the MotorStorm Monument Valley Campsite. The PixelJunk Museum is a sleekly designed public area dedicated to the PixelJunk series where you can explore and collect content related to the PixelJunk Eden, PixelJunk Racers, PixelJunk Monsters and PixelJunk Shooter titles. The MotorStorm Monument Valley Campsite is a mesa-top personal space with its own MotorStorm caravan and an amazing vista of the MotorStorm festival across the Valley. There’s also a ton of MotorStorm-themed furniture available to customize this exclusive hideaway. Check out the pics below.
Dethklok – the death metal super group from Adult Swim’s Metalocalypse cartoon – is pleased to announce that their never-ending quest for intergalactic domination has extended into the world of PlayStation Home. Show your support for all things evil (and metal…but mostly metal) and pick up the new Dethklok merch, available in the Mall, and check out the Dethklok video, now live in the Theater. Raise high the horns and rock out in a manner most deadly with Dethklok in Home!
While you’re in the Mall, you can also grab the new Neptune Suite furniture and other assorted virtual items and the new Jon Burgerman line of virtual goods. World-renowned for his hand drawn cartoon characters (which have been shown in galleries around the world), Mr. Burgerman has lent his talents to Home and has produced a special line of animated clothing for the guys and the gals. If you ever wanted a tattoo for your avatar, it’s high time you check out some of Burgerman’s patented designs.
We here at PlayStation Home are all about spreading the love around and supporting important charities. This is why we have partnered with EA SPORTS to produce and distribute exclusive virtual items that serve to support National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 100% of proceeds for these items will go to the Brees Dream Foundation in support of breast cancer research and awareness programs, so please pick up these items and show your solidarity with all the breast cancer patients around the world. Remember, together we can fight this deadly disease.

emiru69 | October 7th, 2009 at 4:43 pm
I agree with likedatkilla the skin-tones and hair styles are not that great, I found too often “secret twin brothers” walking around.

tearsofash | October 7th, 2009 at 4:49 pm
I’ll be sure to buy the stuff that helps out breast cancer. Oh and definitely dethklok. Both are brutal, just one’s good and one is terribly bad.

Thwip | October 7th, 2009 at 4:49 pm
Nice update; I’ll check into Home later tonight.
I agree with #2 and #4 – a few more skin tones, hair styles and FACIAL HAIR options would be nice.

iComet | October 7th, 2009 at 4:50 pm
What about the NBA?? :D
The NBA season starts on Oct. 27
I’m so happy you are bringing jerseys to Home!! I will definitely buy a few.. why don’t they have #s and names though? ;(

You’re a Steelers fan? My contempt towards you for things that probably aren’t your fault GOES EVEN FURTHER NOW. GRRRRRRRR.

SpyDudeFX | October 7th, 2009 at 4:55 pm
That’s great news, NFL jerseys and all the new stuff. Very cool, hopefully the price is good.

I love this idea!…but Ea and Sony should make a NFL BREAST CANCER PACK for MADDEN 10! The pack should include the pink acc we are seeing NFL stars wearing all this month. The DLC should be around $1.00-$3.00 and all proceeds should also go to BREAST CANCER AWARENESS!!

adribones | October 7th, 2009 at 5:03 pm
how about this for an idea, a headshot cam. take a headshot pic that you can then use for you’re PSN icon/avatar thing. any chance at all for something like this?

I second this idea.

Is there player jerseys or do all the jerseys say “00″ “MADDEN”?

It’s 8:18 10/7 here on the east and I don’t have a camera in my inventory. Or anything else you mentioned.
35
Bloody_Marcel | October 7th, 2009 at 5:20 pm
Locust, could you please stop mentioning the “universal game launching” as some crazy cool functionality added with 1.30 every time you get a chance? It’s deceiving and also slightly offensive to those that know very well this “feature” has been there since in-game XMB was introduced.
36
Neil | October 7th, 2009 at 5:23 pm
The only thing left that we need from from Home is the ability to use our Home avatar on the XMB – that’s it.
37
perrandy | October 7th, 2009 at 5:25 pm
hmm what about adding more chess tables to home? i hate the idea of making line just to take a spot!
38
mikedo2007 | October 7th, 2009 at 5:26 pm
Alright, glad to see a lot of good thing coming to Home. The camera is a huge + to me. So Home is getting something from Adult Swim, huh, that’s intresting. While we’re at it, can you guys team up with maybe Funimation and create a anime-theme space or something like that for our anime audience.
39
Artur05 | October 7th, 2009 at 5:27 pm
Can you guys please also add EUROPEAN SOCCER JERSEYS. Specifically ARSENAL FC?

DigitalDevilSaga | October 7th, 2009 at 5:32 pm
I always boast to everyone I know how much you guys actually do listen to our input, what we want, and deliver all the time. People can talk negative all they want on Home Beta, but i’ll never listen! My many-a friends will agree as well. Keep up the awesome job!

KSPRAYDAD | October 7th, 2009 at 5:46 pm
Hopefully we see some NHL sweaters too (yes…they are sweaters NOT jerseys).
Any chance you could actually INTEGRATE Twitpic with the camera…I’ve got Uncharted Tweeting automagically now and having these post automatically would be spiffy.

Trioptical | October 7th, 2009 at 5:53 pm
Awesome. Been waiting for the cameras so it’s nice to see that it’ll be coming so soon. Thanks, guys. This’ll really push Home further as a social networking tool. Yay!
