I hope there's an ignore feature of some kind. It's going to be very easy for the less mature to annoy people and grounds.

There needs to be a way to report people or ignore them, so they don't appear on the screen.

The starting a game where it pulls up a list of games is nothing more than showing what you have currently in your drive as well as all of your downloaded games and demos. There isn't any true Home integration yet. I started up a UT3 game for other people to join but my PS3 rebooted (happens a lot with 0.83) so never got to see if it would actually launch.

I know a lot of people are hoping for the open beta to come out soon but if thursday was any indication, they have a lot of work to do before this thing is ready.

So far the worst featured added to home....the bubble machine.

You're mean!
As for ignore lists and whatnot, I hear Sony is going to be near-militant when it comes to disruptive players. So far as a 3 strike and you're MAC address banned

I don't think Sony has too much sympathy for the used systems, however. And with games making it so that you can't even take your saves to a new system (sucked to be me getting my new Slim PSP and not being able to port my saves ) I don't think the MAC ban is too unlikely.

Cool videos. Home looks pretty good, I don't think there is anything left to add now.

Good. Nothing will ruin that experience fast than a bunch of immature people raining on other people's parade.

Oh, there is also Chess too. I like that, don't really know how to play Chess . . . good place to finally learn I guess.

+1

I'm glad it's a separate thing, because I can see a fair amount of people not wanting to mess around with Home.

I wonder how much a nice home will cost. Can I get a Ferrari from GT5 for the garage to show friends?

I'll take anything for free when it come to the PS3. If it helps to incorporate basic in game messaging and music - then bring it on.

Home looks great. Some features I couldn't care less about, but having the interactive environment is definitely awesome. I don't exactly need an apartment or anything, but the lobby areas to meet with friends to enter a game, and the Resistance/Warhawk/Uncharted rooms and Hall of Fame room all look amazing.

That sucks. I guess Thursday was the massive closed beta gathering day? Other than the game launching problems what other kinds of issues are plaguing an open beta release?
