  • The Suffering for PS2 Classics please ….. lol

  • Thanks for the awesome update but I think you made a mistake on the first set of pictures that feature the
    Konami-Anime Outfits. You have the picture that features the Martial Artist outfit twice.
    The Kawaii Witch picture is M.I.A.

  • Is Thursdays the regular update date for home? Just wondering

  • It’s nice to see all of these new features added to Home. Is there going to be any new places added to Pottermore in the future by the way?

  • I might be the only person who is asking for this but i think it would be cool..if when we start our ps3 – for the short time we have left with it – PS HOME would start automatically..then using our avatars..we can go to our tvs or phones and play games or watch movies ..or chat on our phones..with a split screen as the camera..and also have a way where we can see our friends AVATAR..whats the point of customizing our avatars if we cant show them off..am i right?.(new idea for the PS4 i guess :p) anyway..these updates look pretty cool..sucks that i already bought a regular bike with no bunny hop tricks..but i did just figured that i can do a wheelie by holding down the box button..so I’m pretty happy with that..lol

  • and also can we have a game like the DORITOS like the other game BOX does..that game is so simple and fun and very competitive..please have a chat with DORITOS or WIPE OUT!! something like this would attract alot of people to PS HOME i swear it!! :p

  • (tried support on twitter about this but to no avail)i purchased one of those nDreams Choppers for $2.99 and havent gotten it yet and when i go to the location of the choppers in the nDream store it says its $2.99 still instead of purchased…i have my receipt from the email and $2.99 was deducted from my wallet…any help would be nice

  • nevermind…just showed up when i purchased those 2 cherry blossom sets…

  • Wow, that Konami and creepy Streetmoves stuff is garish.

    PlayStation Home had a fairly unified aesthetic, outside of those silly balloon guys.

    Gonna get real tired of those faaaaast.

  • why don’t home players just play second life? Same thing but can do more.

  • what about hed kandi dance ?!

  • When are you going to get the MyGym from VEEMEE?

  • Second Life is super skeavy, man.

  • I love the Anime outfits, you guys should come out with more, and also is the blanket that goes on the ground, does it come with a girlfriend type locomotion avatar that sits with you? A bit confused, guess i’ll find out tonight! Awesome stuff guys, keep it up, also second life sucks.

  • the new update was kinda sucky…they needa bring things out that make more plp start getting back on smh..

  • From the Doctor Who, to the Do it Your self racers, to Potter more, Lock a doodle, and all the locomotive’s.!!
