Game Informer - Home shutting down? (April Fools *sigh*) - Blu-ray Forum

BillCable · 03-12-2010, 03:36 PM

A friend of mine in another forum said the latest Game Informer states Sony plans to shut down Home. I don't subscribe so I can't confirm, but it's the first time I've heard that. I don't use Home myself, but I know some folks like it.

It was a joke. It was in the Parody section that GI does every month.

EDIT: damn it Moonphase!

No every April issue.

Yup...it was in the Game Infarcer section...100% parody. In fact, Home just underwent an update yesterday that seems pretty great so far.

Well he's probably not the only person who gets confused by that. Heck I even have customers asking me if it's true so I just say it's just an early April Fool's Day joke that Game Informer puts out every year as a joke(but not very funny jokes).

So if I were you I wouldn't worry about it.

Somebody that I work with told me about it. I think he actually believed it. I didn't get my issue until today, so I couldn't tell him he was full of it.
