If it's easy to accomplish, that looks really cool, especially the Warhawk strategy planning room (sandbox or whatever they called it). Hmm, the link isn't working anymore...so I'll just have to go with sandbox since I can't check to make sure that's what they called it.

Edit: Hmm, for some reason I had to copy the URL to the browser instead of clicking on it. Here's the part I thought sounded cool.

Sure, Uncharted and Resistance may have wicked cool feature sets for PlayStation Home, it's actually Warhawk's planned game portal that has us most excited. According to our sources, the Home lobby for the Incognito dogfighter will serve as a "war room" where up to eight players can meet to discuss their strategy for an upcoming match. Sure, you could do that with text or voice chat, but it sounds like the developers have gone the extra mile to make planning your battles even cooler.

Using a three-dimensional "sand table" replication of the level, Warhawk players are said to be able to lay out their strategies in a properly scaled space. They'll even be able to place little army men avatars around the map to envision their formations, something we hope they can also do with teeny tiny Warhawk planes, tanks and Jeeps.

The warhawk, 'war room' complete with sandbox mock up of the map sounds really really really cool. Even having little army men to place on it, like blue guy go here. I never even imagined having something like that in a game.

to Sony

BluRay2344 · 02-27-2008, 11:56 PM

yeah this sounds pretty awesome!

Copywriter · 02-27-2008, 11:58 PM

Of course the downside is, who will use it? It's hard to find 3 people on a team in Warhawk to work together.

Home has the ability to completely wipe the 360's online crap off the map.

I want a big house, that's all I know.

Nice! I wonder why suddenly there is a bunch of info on Home leaking out?

el_nacho · 02-28-2008, 12:50 AM

War rooms are a great idea, I just hope it doesn't make actually entering games too much of a hassle (what do you do when you wanna switch servers, run across the street?).

Because it's about to drop in a little while.

You probably just have to back out of the match and choose another server.

BluHavik · 02-28-2008, 12:58 AM

They've already said Home will be totally voluntary. You can still play any game online without ever launching Home. It's just a cool extra for those who want to use it.

Home is definitely coming in a matter of weeks..maybe days...I like that you'll be able to explore Uncharted levels with your Home avatar..and the War room for Warhawk sounds badass...the integration possibilities seem limitless.

Even for the people that don't seem too interested in it right now, I believe that as more games take advantage of the possibilities, more people will become more interested. I need to work on my Warhawk skills so I won't be left out of all of the war room fun. lol

Maybe it means Home is going to be released soon?

So are these Home features going to be available for the designated game via Download or Patch? I hope so. I don't want to have to buy a special copy of Uncharted for these cool features when I buy Uncharted in a few weeks.

desmond · 02-28-2008, 01:57 AM

patch. sce just released devkit for it.

xtop · 02-28-2008, 02:03 AM

finally..some cool information about home. hopefully this will lead to even cooler 3rd party ideas.

I believe that it will. Especially when upcoming games like Resistance 2 and Motorstorm 2 get so much attention. I'm sure that their level of integration will greatly build on the levels that are being reported for Resistance 1.

I hope it does come out soon. There has been lots of info about In-game XMB and Home so something is definitely up. . .

And yeah, this should all be available to the already released games with an Add-on from the PSN or maybe an update (but I doubt it, it's probably Add-on)

Cool. They'll probably add on the game disc later for the already out games. I think big games like Resistance 2 should just use a patch to save space on the BD for more important stuff like the actual game. Besides, who doesn't have internet

Yeah. Something is definately going on. I wouldn't be suprised if we got a release date within the next few weeks.

I wonder if/what Ratchet and Clank Future will use Home for...
