Finally got that goddamn gold Trophy yesterday. Been a part of Home since the beginning, was always just a Running Man dance simulator to me. Great concept but terrible, terrible execution.

Good riddance.

Met my long distance girlfriend though Home. We broke up but still talk, she's pissed off about the shutdown and brought a PS4.

Maybe that was the plan...

While I wan't really a big fan of home, I did like it when the Xi alternate reality game was going on. Kinda wish something like this would make a come back

Like a couple days ago I received email from Sony with some free stuff voucher for home because they notice that I haven't played it in a while. Great timing Sony.

 

[Ermac]

Is it dead?

 

[Agent X]

It's still up at the moment.

 

[Yagharek]

I can't believe they used to make you wait for bowling. What a dumb piece of shit software.

Good riddance.

 

[Kolma]

We never exited beta and we never got Quest for greatness 3...
I want to finish the story!
(JK I just want more free ps1 games....)

The one and only time I ever used Home was for Sonys E3 2013 event. The stream never started and it was a waste of time. Never used it again.

My condolences for the handful of people who actually liked it though.

 

[RadioJoNES64]

This service had a really long life, but it was never home to me.

 

[Shark Attack]

Really wish Sony would commit to things, Move, Home, 3D, Playstation TV, Now, Eyetoy, Camera, Mobile, Vita. Pretty much everything that's not the core playstation brand get's treated half assed and dies.

[Kolma]

since when did Home have trophies..... ?

*edit
OMG it's spamming me with trophies.

 

[nikos]

Just logged in to grab some trophies.

Sad day. I loved the concept of Home but didn't end up using it as much as I thought I would. Wish it had more game integration and served as more of a matchmaking hub.

 

[oni_saru]

Gahhh!! I wish i had seen this thread a week ago >.< gonna log in now and get some of the trophies. RIP Home. Really enjoyed the fun times i had there. The camera was a game changer.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Already grabbed all the trophies months ago.

 

[SatoAilDarko]

Anybody want to quickly become friends so we can invite each other over for the Welcome Guest trophy?

now i just gotta wait for game to stop lagging

 

[eyeball_kid]

Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

So many bullshot promises. Remember how they announced you could meet your friends in Home and travel with them from game to game? What a soulless waste of energy.

 

[SatoAilDarko]

add Kolma528 (will delete you after trophy mind you)

That's the way I'll like it thanks. My name is same as username. Thanks.

 

[Kolma]

Had to quit game.
Do NOT check trophies while in game....

 

[SatoAilDarko]

Invite sent.

 

[SatoAilDarko]

Thanks a lot. Looks like we're done. Can I defriend now?

 

[Kolma]

Thanks a lot. Looks like we'll done. Can I defriend now?

yeah gopher it.
My house is now officially a mess with a huge pile of furniture on the floor xD'
Shame I can't get those daily trophies

 

[YoungHav]

This thing dead yet? HOME practically bankrolled the PS4.

 

[SatoAilDarko]

I did all of them when the first came up out of boredom. Thanks to you I'm 100% appreciate it.

Though there was a beat irony to only missing the one trophy that required socialization in an application like Home.

 

[Apt101]

I actually liked Home. I used it somewhat frequently after I bought a PS3 back in the day. I thought the idea was fascinating, and would explore Home to browse media I may never have heard of otherwise. The jankiness of it added charm - like some weird homage to the early imaginings of virtual worlds found in films like Virtuosity.

After a few years of checking in I eventually lost interest. I think interactive advertising and mini-game hubs of this nature can work, but it just didn't the way they tried with Home.

 

[Windforce]

I'll miss my PS Home Street Fighter t-shirts. :')

I'll always remember it browing my trophies and rocking dat 100% for PS Home. Farewell. :'(

 

[adamantypants]

Any idea when this thing officially dies?

 

[TheSeks]

Any idea when this thing officially dies?

Probably in a couple of hours. Or like... 6 hours or 12. Sometime when Sony remembers.

PSTV never had a chance.

Grace Chen-o'clock

 

[Pachimari]

Even here on my last day on Home I had a very great time.

What a disaster this closure is.

 

[Roto13]

It shuts down at midnight PST, so one hour from now. I'm going to hang around until the end. Never done that in a virtual world before.

I have a pet skunk now. I've named it Flowers.

 

[Meltsi]

I still can't believe I spent money and time in this.

Aaand it's over, RIPinpeace PlayStation Home.
2008-2015

 

[Charles Alan Ratliff]

Spent the final moments of PlayStation Home popping and locking on the Konami dance floor with a bunch of people saying their farewells. People were still typing messages when it suddenly cut off. It felt somber.

 

[sono]

And it's finally dead

Wait. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.





Oh well.

 

[panty]

7 years huh.

RIP

 

[hesido]

Somehow this saddens me.

 

[Skunkers]

[Roto13]

Goodbye.
