If you’re like me then you are literally counting down the days until Super Bowl XLIV and wringing your hands in anticipation of the 59th Annual NBA All-Star Game. You’re a hardcore sports fan that spends all of his or her spare time either sitting in front of the tube watching the game or (better yet) sitting behind your DualShock controller and playing the game. And the only thing better than being at home with an ice-cold beverage cracked, watching your favorite team with old friends is being IN PlayStation Home finding new friends to launch into Madden NFL 10 or NBA Live 10. And that, my fellow ballers and leatherheads, is why PlayStation Home is THE place to be this week.
Continuing to come strong with the sports content, EA is bringing a boatload of football and basketball items to the PlayStation Home community this Thursday, January 21. From NFL jerseys that sport (pun intended) the names of some of the league’s best players – from Romo to Manning to Bush – to NBA jerseys emblazoned with the logos of your favorite teams, we have something for every sports fanatic this week (that is, unless you are a fan of curling or solo synchronized swimming.) Head to the EA SPORTS Complex or the PlayStation Home Mall come this Thursday and stock up on these hot items before Super Bowl fever lays you out or you get benched for throwing elbows on the court.
In other news, we’ll be releasing what is easily one of the coolest personal spaces ever to launch in PlayStation Home – the Paris Clock Tower. This unique apartment, overlooking the bustling Parisian streets, is a marvel of urban living, unrivaled in terms of luxury and highly-customizable so as to suit various tastes. Choose from a variety of furniture and clothing options, bundled together at an absolutely killer deal, and put your personal touch on the Clock Tower personal space. But first, check out the screens for a peek at what this awesome new space has to offer.
This week’s PlayStation Home publish is heavy on sweet new reward items, with White Knight Chronicles and PixelJunk Shooter rewards now unlocking in PlayStation Home after in-game performance milestones are reached, and a free Star Ocean t-shirt unlocking for users that visit the PlayStation Home Theater and watch the special video contained therein. Check the pics below for a taste of what’s in store for you this week.
Finally, those of you who grabbed the Waterfall Terrace will be thrilled to find that a ton of new furniture items are being released to complement this wildly-popular personal space. You can grab these Waterfall Terrace-themed items (and many more) in the Furniture and Estates stores in the PlayStation Home Mall. For a list of all the new content (and, in the case of virtual items, their locations), be sure to check the Latest Updates tab when in-world. You can access this tab by pressing Start to open your Menu Pad > Community > Latest Updates.
See you in Home!
video sharing PLEASE!!!!
but great update non the less
Oh. My. God. This Paris space looks AWESOME
fix all the broken stuff and give us Irem beach and Loco Roco island and I’ll be happy
“that is, unless you are a fan of curling”
Don’t go there man. Especially with Vancouver closing in really quickly.
I am kind of loving this update: Why is it the NFL gets teams with player names, but the NBA just gets teams? I love, LOVE to see a KOBE BRYANT, PAU GASOL, LAMAR ODOM, D FISHER, etc, etc jerseys instead of just the team LOGO on the front. It looks like a cheap jersey with no number and no name of player on the back! Will we see player names on jerseys anytime soon?
I love the winning of items for HOME from in game milestones. Great implementation. It adds tons of incentive and replay ability in games that builds on top of the already great trophy system.
Can we get a player list of what NFL stars jersey will be available to purchase.
Odd how EA is sponsering the NBA unis, when Sony has their own NBA game.
So does this mean if EA is doing all the sports unis, that there won’t be any MLB themed goodies for HOME any time soon, since EA doesn’t have any sort of MLB licensing
Here\’s a list of NFL player jerseys for you:
Fitzgerald, Warner, Flacco, Lewis, Ochochino, Palmer, Romo, Ware, Rodgers, Jennings, Manning, Wayne, Favre, Peterson, Brady, Moss, Brees, Bush, Sanchez, Edwards, Jackson, McNabb, Rivers, Tomlinson.
