aren't they even cooler and they don't actually measure your touch/pressure but your body current?H_Prestige said:
I thought that's why they won't activate if you try to press them with something (non-conducting) else than your skin.
Piggus said:Do you eject disks via the XMB as well?
I know I do... even though eventually I have to get up.
I wonder what's happening with PSLife. I only mention it as I noticed the schools channel disappeared for a few days but tonight it was back along with a World Heritage thing (which is pretty bare). PSLife could be very, very good but so far it hasn't been quite what I expected. I reckon they need lots of partnerships for it.

i almost always eject from the controller. especially if i know that when my ps3 returns to the xmb it will blast the music from whatever game disc is loaded. that and by the time i get up and get to my ps3 it will already be ejected for me to pop in a bd or something.

He's probably worried for his job. I don't think Sony appreciates the cockteasing after the way E3 went.Kagari said:

I really think you should. The amount of content it has now has drastically improved in both quantity and quality. I wasn't really into Home when It first launched, but its slowly but surely winning me over.

As there seem to be no live-streams for the PCs, Home could really be the place to go for Sonys Gamescom conference.
At e3 you had many choices to watch it live instead.

Though "a few hours" can be quite long if you remember e3.
it will be in the store like usual (in HD I guess), too:
Mike Kebby said:
Trailers etc. should go live immediately after the PC (see e3 09):

None of that changes the simple fact that it has no tangible value to the end user. Why else do only 25% of home users come back for a second visit... sonys own stats.
And jeez... chill out.

There are several 'watch this space' billboards too and the shape blaster game is interesting.

I am laughing at Freestyler teasing stuff people have known now for months. People disbelieving the packaging box shot, production shots of the case and video of a full unit at this point are the stupid ones at this point. We know how it looks, we know its coming now really soon, all that remains is the price.

I was 'chilled'. Yes, those were the stats. As Home is evolving, those stats will change. I am not surprised that only 25% of Home users returned, because up until recently, there has been bugger all to do. Slowly but surely, Sony is turning Home into something quite nice. Also, Homes value depends on what you want out of it. I really like the minigames, the unlockables, the conference video uploads etc, therefore it has value to me.
Sony Rep: Price drop and backwards compatibility coming soon
Over at my local GameStop (where I work), our Sony rep stopped in earlier today to update the PlayStation 3 kiosks and check in with us. I decided to ask him about all the rumors going around on the PlayStation 3 slim. When I asked him about whether or not is coming he told me this:
"All I'm going to say is this: both a price drop and a firmware update with backwards compatibility are coming soon."
Directly from the mouth of a Sony rep. GamesCom is next week, folks. Don't be surprised if you hear the announcement.

Really? Is that ALL he's going to say?
People don't usually say "All I'm going to say..." and then spill their guts.
"All I'm going to say is this: Microsoft is being bought out by SONY, and together they will create the X-station 4. But thats ALL I'm going to say"

25% are still 1.75 million Home-users.
It would be way more btw, if they released Home recently OR had this amount content available back then in December. The general opinion after the first week was "Home is shit and it will be shit no matter what they release for it", so very few keep up with what is released for it and how much stuff their is now compared to the public launch.
Even if you use it like me (not in a social way, just regularly checking out the content, collecting free stuff, exploring the spaces play the mini games a bit), you have enough to do to start it once in a week or two.

It was never more than an hour, as I think a couple people pointed out after the whole 'three hour megaton' bullshit started. The three hours is the block of time for the conference and pre/post discussion, boozing, etc... same as they've had in the past.
Why people still seriously thought it was going to be three hours of presentations I don't know.
