It\'s free, but there sure seems to be a lot of ways to make you pay for content with that service.  Neat idea, considering just how popular the sims are.

It looks really cool, but it has quite a bit to prove.  We\'ll have to see if it\'s as seamlessly integrated in to the system and all games as Live is.  

Will I be able to chat across all games, no matter what either player is playing?  Send/receive invites/messages no matter where I am, what I\'m playing, when I\'m playing?  Will I have to travel through this virtual community to get to the trailers, arcade, etc?

The cool thing about Live is it\'s always running in the background, and it\'s very accessible.  I\'m under the impression from the video that I\'ll have to launch Home first from the crossbar.

I will say Home looks to have quite a bit of potential.  We\'ll have to see if Sony can break it\'s trend of over-promising and under-delivering.

We\'ll see.

The possibilities are there. For an avid online gamer such as myself I prefer a lobby consisting of well known reputable players. I\'d rather invest my time playing the games and setting matches up then lobbying around visiting little kiddies art deco virtual homes.

Like I said earlier the kiddies will love this like there mama\'s supple milk, that is if SONY delivers on the content. I have  learned a very important lesson with XBOX live. The majority of people using CONSOLE online gaming services are noob/computer illiterate/non hardcore PC gamer types. In other words the casual gamer.

With Live i was dealing with ignorant loud mouth rednecks,  8 year old boys who think there bad ass like 50 cent etc..... Rarely did I met serious mature gamers. That is why when ever I hope on LIVE(which is rare) it\'a 95% of the time in private lobby\'s with my friends.

This is why i still prefer PC gaming for multilayer.

Thats why i don\'t play online full stop. To many knobs in the world fucking it all up. I\'d prefer Lans anyway.  Hence why a group of mates and I do it once in a while.

I\'ve went online once and with my xbox and played NFL 2K. The guy I was playing against was some punk kid who kept yelling out stupid shit and continued to cheat. I stopped playin and never signed up again.

Sure. But then again....Sims 2 is extremely popular among adults. So I wouldn\'t just brush this off as another "Mii Character" thingy.

I posted the link at another forum and someone mentioned it was a rip off from Second Life. I checked it out and Jeebus.....it\'s got 4 million users! I never heard of this. Maybe mm can fill us in?

Someone correct me if I\'m wrong, but isn\'t it a world where you can buy and sell stuff for real monies? Some people make a decent buck on it but I\'m guessing they don\'t have a first life...

Second Life was in the news recently.  The old schoolers were getting fed up with the noobs and set off a couple of b0mbas

nvidia- agreed 100% on xbox live.  My bro started an account for Halo 2 and I hated every second of it.  Talk about morons.  The only way I will get into the PS home thing is if I can instantly boot or kick an annoying user from my place ;>  Reputation points would be a great addition too.
