ROOOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRR!!!

What was that? It sounded kinda like a dinosaur, but aren’t they extinct? And… even if they weren’t extinct, you’ve seen them in movies – if there was one around, the ground would be shaking. You’d be able to hear it stomping along even if it was still streets away.

Something just brushed past at ankle height! This is getting freaky… oh wait! It’s just Lockwood’s new mini dinosaurs. Small, but perfectly formed, Trey the Triceratops, Arnie the Brachiosaur and Rufus the Stegosaurus are available in PlayStation Home this week!

7. Heavy Ink – Arthropod Tattoos

Expanding the line of Obsidian and Ivory tattoos, Heavy Ink is releasing some new designs this week—the insect-inspired Arthropod collection. Visit the Mall where you can purchase these tattoos for your avatar, male or female, light, in a variety of tones! These tattoos are meant to be worn with your existing clothing*, and if you don’t have clothing that works, Heavy Water has provided Bare Canvas torsos free of charge for males and females to proudly display your ink!
*Some clothing items are made differently, so clipping might occur with the tattoos.

8. x7 – Exclusive Early-Access Update

Members of the exclusive PlayStation Home nightclub x7 get access to a brand new bundle, as well as Lockwood’s Cucumber line, which expands with several Country Kitchen items. Be the first to take these collectibles home as part of your x7 membership!

hey is there a way to bring back Seaside of Memories , not the same one , i know the company left Sony but something similar, but LONGER , to be able to take long walks and wihout that idiotic net underwater, so we can go further deep into the abyss .
also our avatars should be able to swim, run faster , etc
any possibilities in bringing Qriocity into Home, maybe a radio with purchasable songs, and also headphones,
ah and you know what, i really hope that when the PS4 comes out, it comes with the feauture to have 2 or 3 systems in your house ACTIVE , is totally annoying to have to deactivate my Bedroom`s PS3 to be able to watch the movie i purchased thru the PS STORE in my living room`s PS3 , or vice versa.
I have Itunes and i can watch a movie on my laptop , located in my living room , or go to my desktop in my bedroom and watch the same movie , without having to deactivate 1 and all that NON SENSE.

HELL NO! WE GOT THE CASINO UPDATE!

“4. Let the summer games begin!

Also it about time SFxTK TGI even returned due to removable without any notices. I am now happy. I hope many people will come in dedicated game space. (EU has it own Dedicated Game Space) due to lack of plays
- Cade Peterson
  July 24, 2012 at 11:10 am PDT
  
  I tend to agree. There’s a laundry list of awesomesauce to check out, play and enjoy! Every week is a little different, but there’s never a truly “light publish.”
  
  You are also correct, the SF TGI is more specifically the Street Fighter x Tekken Total Game Integration. It might also be the longest name of a TGI we’ve ever had. ;-)

Why is it you only answer the comments that make this blog look good? We by the stuff you put out, but you never listen to use on the forums page…. We have a playstation home group on facebook with more than 300 members who talk about this kind of stuff.. Maybe you should take a look ant it and see what the people would like to see come to home.. im tired of the disappointing updates we all are.. HOME IS NOT THE SAME ANYMORE!

Seems as if the Home team have taken summer vacation, after the last few updates. “Just give them some old content while we are gone”. Let’s hope some of us with money to spend are still here when they get back from vacation.

What no sockpuppets rushing to defend the perverts paradise? Seriously though the consistantly low ratings and comments by those who really use home should be telling Cade and others allegedly in charge of keeping home running that those who pay their salaries that homes not living up to the hype. Face it guys, the time to start listening to your clientele was a long time ago and now we’re voting with our wallets.

I know why these people wont reply back to me , because their reply is on their head , and it goes as follows:
Shut up and Dont be a Jerk, post it at the forums , the same forums hardly anyone gets a reply back, ahahahaha, Cant stand this girl !

I have been a Home member since late 2008 and i would be 1 of the few that was buying everything you guys put out , i thought it was fun and new . 4 years later some things have improve, like the furniture count 100, before the limit was 50 . but then it went back to Auuggh , when you decided to make 1 active item take the place of 22 items, for me it was like taking 2 steps forward, 1 step back .

Same experience with clothing , was great to get more spaces and storage but then you people decided to jam , wings, hand weapons, accesories (jewerly, watches, rings ) all in 1 place and it was the same feeling.

Now i ask you, how many Companions does 1 person needs for you guys to say, “ok i think they have enough ” .
As creative , you and the other creative tems are, you seem to come up with the same items , More Companions and more of the same clothes, just in different colors.
erickafollie
July 25, 2012 at 8:48 am PDT

I know for a fact that people are not Buying much of anything anymore, specially the ones that have been here Supporting your “creativity and job, since the beginning . its not fun for me to come here and repeit myself week after week, but i feel that things are not getting done, NOT the things we want, the only things getting done are the things YOU think we want .

Home has improve a lot from what it was back in 2008, but i feel the Spirit of Home has been left Behind , now is all about Marketing , numbers and Quarterly Staments .

As one of You said once, We have taken more Responsability , thats why we going by our own names,well maybe there is TOO much Responsability on you and too little help , but whatever the situation is, Home must improve .

So they removed SF4 Base & Tekken Gym for?…. something less than half as…. er…. “hearted”. I already bought them but others lost the ability to by SF4 Alternate Outfits & Seth. And the store there only reminds me how I still want Devil Jin Gloves with Wings. (And the lack of Armor King.) I don’t know what the need for a SFxTekken Public space was if it was going to be so small & partly patched by HUB. I was hoping for at least an expansion to the space with probably a TV to advertise for Tekken Tag Tournament 2 or whatever Capcom is doing with SF.

I spoke too soon. heres mob_star35 the idiotic chump from the sony defense force to save his beloved idol from the “great unwashed masses” (aka PAYING CUSTOMERS) who have the temerity to ask what they paid for actually be as advertised and working properly. Erickafollie wasn’t insulting you in anyway, unless of course your a sockpuppet for one of the incompetents who isn’t doing their job which is more than likely. She like many others simply wants what she paid for to work as claimed. but no you have to come on here with your arrogant condescending “HOW DARE THEY!!” attitude. Corporate crybabies like you are sickening.

steelerzfan44, its unlikely we’ll get those places back no matter how many want them. Home as long cesed to be about paying users, now its just about entincing mindless sheep to spend spend spend without seeing any value. Its a sad reality that home could’ve been so much more but instead its the virtual version of that street our parents warned us not to go down as young kids. If we’re lucky in the future playstation home will be held up as an example of what not to do in corporate america, or anywhere else. If home was somehow brought back on track I could see returning. Unless that does happen I don’t need it. I can watch home shopping channel if I wanted to be bored silly.

July 30, 2012 at 1:19 am PDT

I’m always longing for that update that actually changes something for the better. Like an update for Playstation Home that doesn’t require us to pay an Arm ‘n’ Leg for people to enjoy. All we have are these exclusive items. Like it’s ment to be, any Avatar whose anyone has them, but they’re so expensive that it’s hard to really experience much of them.

If they are going by Quantity Over Quality anyway, wouldn’t it be smarter to lower the prices so everyone can have a chance to buy? Making something $9.99 or up doesn’t make it cool, or anymore appealing.
CaptainJames99
July 30, 2012 at 12:02 pm PDT

TransGirly your not the only one saying it. but unforunately those who consistantly mismanage home like Cade Peterson among others think we’re all gonna keep paying 5 star hotel prices for day old mcdonalds leftovers. they’re not gonna get the picture until we give them a pink slip party.
