I was really excited about Home, have they done anything with it though? It seems to have all but died in momentum. It just feels like something to launch while on your PS3, but a reason to turn on your PS3, and it takes a long time to launch. I know I will get downvoted, but the PS3 doesn't have that "get right into it" feel the 360 and Xbox Live does. You can form a party from the dashboard, and then figure out what you want to play, within seconds. The PS3 is just a huge dissapointment for me. I loved LBP, and I am looking forward to snagging Uncharted 2 soon (too many other PC and 360 games right now), but for the most part I got my PS3 for GT5...and guess what STILL isn't out yet. Polyphony is going the way of Sony vs Microsoft. I think they think they can get away with doing whatever the heck they want, because of who they are. Guess what, Forza 3 is fantastic, GT5 isn't the system seller of the magnitude it once was.

Ok, got off on a tangent, but my point is, Home is a portal..on a system that isn't very popular and is not conducive to community interaction. I understand it tries to create that, but it sure feels like it fails at it. I thought Home was going to be the PS3s Xbox Live Dashboard, and it has not thus far achieved that.
