Special Holiday Update For PlayStation Home

The Winter Holiday celebration continues this week in PlayStation Home, with tons of awesome new content scheduled to arrive on your PlayStation 3 this Thursday, December 22nd. This week will see the release of some seriously spectacular personal spaces that are packed to the brim with goodies, as well as a massive overload of new items on the shelves in the PlayStation Home Mall (along with some sales you will not want to miss out on). From updates to the popular Winter Holiday Hullabaloo event to a multitude of new videos in the Community Theater (complete with special rewards), PlayStation Home is truly the place to be this Holiday season!

Forget snow and ice, mittens, scarves, and frigid weather. Lockwood Publishing’s new Board Figment Dream Yacht will help you get away from the cold of winter. Spend your holidays like the Home elite, basking in the sun on the deck of your private yacht, or soothe your cares away in one of the two on-board hot tubs. It’s the perfect place to entertain guests, with several lounge areas and exquisite views of your own private tropical hideaway.

The Dream Yacht comes with some beautiful furnishings already in place, but if you spend some time exploring its expansive three floors you may find more things to add that special finishing touch ;) With such opulent surroundings, it’s only natural to dress to impress. Visit Lockwood’s Exclusive Store (only available on the Dream Yacht) to gain access to a variety of elegant fashions that will assure your style is a cut above the rest!

  • i was wondering when the rest of the items for the dream yacht will be ready to be collected cuz i really want the fish tank thats why i bought this place it would be so much better if the boat moved and it had a TV and if u could like play a mini game with the stuff like the safe boats and chopper and plane and stuff and with the screens that are near the controls should have some thing on them also so if some one could pls let me know thank you

  • i can not find the santa reindeer costume where is it on us server??? it had the video on alphazone? can someone please tell me thanks

  • i wanted to make you guys aware of the problem on waterfall terrace not loading any thing and mini game not working

  • Yeah, um i heard that PSH isnt even posting the Santa on the reindeer costume. But it is advertised EVERYWHERE!!!!! I really want this suit. I looked all over PSH and it is no where to be seen… Can you please look into this issu

  • The Yacht Is AMAZING well worth 10$

  • WTF is “decadent evening wear”? Is that a bit of Jinglish or a Britishism?????

  • When is Sony going to realize that PlayStation Home is a complete waste of their resources? All the money they have spent on this (which its STILL in BETA phase right?) could have gone to a better more robust and secure network. To this day I still can’t understand why people spend their real money on virtual items which the moment Sony decides to close Home for good, will be as real as unicorns(yes I’m guilty on that one). I did go and checked out the redesign, but I actually got bored so quickly that it actually made me fall asleep. So it wasn’t just my avatar that was sleeping for a while. There wasn’t anything good about it. They designed it so large spaces do not exist, since they can’t have that many users per server. As far the people that I encountered, most where either just wondering around like me or just standing there doing nothing(also asleep?). To be fair, I was quite exited about Home when it was first mentioned and when I got a access code (before it became available to all users) I was really happy. Over time, this has dwindled since a lot of the promises either never materialized or where really short in expectations. There are so many other better ways to use your PS3. This is just not one of them.

  • I haven’t been on PlayStation Home in AGES!
    I’m gonna go on it, for a bit, in the Summer Holidays (it’s quite a long time away, but I just don’t have the time at the present circumstances), and see how far it’s progressing.
    But PlayStation Home could really use a diverse weather system, seasons, pets, real-time voice chat, where you can expect places to get noisy when you’re in crowds, and so much more!
    Sony, COME ON! Home can be a far GREATER success than it is now, but I’m sure you guys are workin’ at your best, so thank you! And Good Luck! xDD

  • If you haven’t been on in ages, how do you know what Home has and what it needs? Have you been following the weekly announcements?

    Here’s some interesting news: https://twitter.com/#!/lootgear/status/150392807247450112

  • @MrSniffer, well considering that Lockwood Publishing there development studio is based in Nottingham, United Kingdom then some of there words may well be to do with British, with the word as *decadent* that is basically the posh term of good, quality clothes which is mostly wore formally to going out to such places in the evening.

  • Haha! Merry christmas GlassWalls and all my play station homies!!! Just wanna say good job with all the updates, new gear and spaces. Loot space was an explosion of coolness I luv every thing it has to offer even tho I don’t really tweet lol it’s still a great idea as for the EOD the streaming music is by far the coolest thing on home, too bad it is not in the new yacht, was kinda dissapointed to see that I didn’t have an EOD their 8(… What would b really great is if yall could sell an active EOD that we could put in any space!!!!! Lockwood is also great it changes wit the seasons, y’all even put a fassion runway in their lol but no seating!!! I have some ps talent friends that I kno would luv too use the area but What is a great fassion show without seating? Lol just a suggestion, any ways keep up the good work can’t wait to see Wut else y’all have in store for us homies. Merry Christmas n happy holidays
