The GAF Resistance: Fall of Man clan needs this RIGHT NOW. It will make our clan nights much, much more fun, and easier for all of us to hook up. We're usually left to yelling out who's signing in to PSN, and then have to wait to see if the person is going to join the game or not. That's gotten old really fast.

Yep that's very nice.
I still want my FFXII judge armor... Not games shirts.

The girl with the HS shirt even looks a little like Nariko.

Daym at the graphics and RUBBER BOB! So awesome, I will be spending lots of time in HOME... 6 months from now

The only thing that sucks is the fact that I don't have a PS3 in my office.

Free?
How about a quarter for old times sake
Or even, a dollar for 20 minutes at the arcade?

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
This is far and above what I expected...
PLUS this are not doctored photos, they are from actual TVs on an actual PS3.
Amazing
Keep in mind people, that arcade shot is not real, but from somewhere else.
Needless to say it's certainly possible with this engine...
Arcades could be back, we have come full circle again.

Those shots look amazing, but could someone who's in on the HOME beta report back with some details on what these games are and how they play?
It would be interesting to see how many are made by internal SCEE teams and how many are made by smaller indy teams.
I'm sure I read in an interview with someone at Zoe Mode (formerly Kuju Brighton) that they were working in house on some small HOME arcade cabinet games. It seems that SONY are pushing for games to fill these cabinets alongside the 'larger' paid content for PSN such as Super Rub-a-dub and TEKKEN DR rather than replace it.
Rubber Bob FTW!!!!

As long as they keep the arcade games coming they'll have people in HOME for long periods of time. That's one way to keep and attract hardcore gamers to HOME. Especially if they do what was mentioned above and start adding arcade classics into it.

HOLY SHIT indeed. **** I WANT HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm pretty sure there wont be free arcade classics, but rather free simple games like the ones in Home already.
Devs like Namco would probably charge for adding their classics into the Home cabinets (though seeing as it would be stripped of a UI and the basic semi-flash of the $5 PSN titles like Mortal Kombat II, one would think it could fetch a decent $2-4 price).

That would be fine i'd think, especially sonycowboys way of paying for hours on the machine, so you pay a dollar and get an hour of time to play the game.

Isn't all of that stuff that can be done just as effectively with standardized lobbies and voice chat, no 3D virtual world required?

What would be really cool, if the old arcade classic games, you purchased from PS store, were available to play in the Arcade room i.e. MK II 2player game, when you invited your friend to the arcade. In addittion to the whole communal/social gamingg aspect could be tied into the homebrew community to submit their project ot sony for bug testing and if and when it passess the qualification, your game goes into the arcade. It will be up to the independent dev. to charge an nominal fee.
This will be perfect for the "GAME 3.0" initiative.

GTFO, we want 3D virtual world.beermonkey@tehbias said:

not really. even if you've been in a clan for a long time, you don't really know the members besides a 120x120px avatar.
if you can enter a 3d lobby after each game with a visual representation of the player, you'll get to know the members of your clan better, and the sense of community be that much stronger.

I'm not sure if PSN downloadable games will ever be playable via the arcade cabinets, but the latter bit would indeed be very cool indeed. Someone did ask Phil Harrison about the possibility of allowing that, and he said it's something they might do if they can wrap things up into a nice SDK. From the Developer Q+A it sounds like it should be pretty easy to import a game into Home (as long as it fits within any technical constraints placed on arcade games, i guess).
But yeah, that would be very exciting. Fingers crossed.

Can it though? The apparent ease with which you will supposedly be able to manage a party of friends in Home, jumping from game to game, isn't something that you can do from the XMB at the moment, nor is it something that would fit as well there IMO. No console online service is offering that at the moment, but it fits quite naturally with Home and the representation it presents.
Something interesting that an EA employee posted on the IGN boards (in response to the Home beta being a bit limited):
"Right now HOME is featureless and a lot of functionality we have at work is not implemented yet. The home we have at work is down right fun. i dont know about you but our DL connections are pretty fast, but that could be due to our intranet or you have a poor ISP.
I spoke to friends of mine that are on the beta program and not a single one has a problem with DL's. Wait till you see what EA is doing with our lobbies and games. Remember HOME will succeed if players and companies want it to succeed not sony."
