Nothing new here.
Just basic stuff like: Watch movies! Use the Playstation Move! etc etc.

Ofcourse its from the official sony site, so it shouldnt be to advanced, because newcomers must understand it. but still. Not worth submitting to N4G.

(@ the disagrees, im not even trolling here)

8. Get a helping hand

LOL

HappyGaming4860d ago (Edited 4860d ago )

I read Eight Days and thought this was about the game :(

@wesley-dw you don't have to be trolling for people to disagree with you...

Disagree means they don't agree with what you said.
Its doesn't mean they think your trolling.

Focker4204860d ago (Edited 4860d ago )

They forgot...
1. internet browser
2. video chat with 5 friends
3. create youtube videos with the video editor
4. Qore

plus a couple of things i can't mention.

edit: oh and if you have windows media player on your pc, you can take all the movies, music, and photos on the pc and wirelessly transfer them onto your PS3 system, and vice versa.

Panzerkanzler4859d ago

Don't need a PS3 for that, just my girlfriend.

Welshy4859d ago

@panzer

sigh... im not gonna disagree you but the whole "get a girlfriend", "my girlfriend can do that" nonsense is just annoying.

bare in mind its a gaming site, so if your on here at all, 9/10 of us WONT have one.

just sayin.

<<< my face when i read Eight Days.

Too bad I was wrong

DoomeDx4860d ago

Yeah, to bad they cancelled it..seriously wtf

Azianphil884860d ago

Eight Days not cancel
just on hold same goes to The Getaway

Balt 4860d ago

The video service of the PS3 is a joke. They failed to mention if you have more than 1 ps3's (like me) and you have video service enabled on one you can't watch movies with the id on the new system. Stupid!

LEt me not even get started on how Netflix destroyed their ap on Ps3 with that new janky ass layout they got. They took all the movies, suggested 75 of them to you and then take your money for it still. What a joke. Why have it one way, a way that works, a way that is good and offers up accessibility and user preference -- For the stupid ass **** they gave us; without warning mind you.

Koolno4860d ago

You are the joke if you don't know how to do it...

Best video service now, with all the new services (not only netflix and psn video anymore)

Cole_Train4860d ago

You could just download movies and stream them from a free service like Vuze to your PS3. That's what I do and it saves money, time, and very easy to use. Just drag and drop.

OllieBoy4860d ago

Who cares if is this "old"

It's the Holidays and a lot of new PS3 owners will be curious at what it's capable of.

Would love PlayStation Home 2 on PS5 with seamless transitions between different areas.

-Foxtrot199d ago

Yeah, although I’m worried if it does come back idiots will say it’s jumping on the metaverae trend not realising it did this years ago

zeuanimals199d ago

They'd have a hard time doing that if it's called Playstation Home 2. That raises the question of what the first one was.

Si-Fly198d ago

You’ll enjoy life much more if you stop worrying about what other people think :)

darthv72199d ago

...in VR2 would be awesome as well.

Godmars290199d ago

Given you're talking about online speeds and connectivity, not the PS5 itself, you're not escaping loading screens.

Tacoboto199d ago

SSD speeds so quick you could open a door in PS Home to walk your Avatar through a portal to launch a game.

They could do something like Peach's Castle in Mario 64 and your library of titles are the portraits

ChiefofLoliPolice199d ago

Agreed wholeheartedly. Playstation Home was amazing!

ThEusAisPoisonous199d ago

You’re being silly. It was stupid as shit.

Ashunderfire86199d ago

Second Life did that before everyone.

1Victor198d ago

@ Jin:” Would love PlayStation Home 2 on PS5 with seamless transitions between different areas.”
I second that plus a vr option added to it

gold_drake199d ago

it really was.

miss it.
it had alot of potential.

Inverno199d ago

There's still IMVU and Second Life but they're not quite like PS Home. Btw folks the Home restoration project is still going and they have brought Home back online through the PS3 emulator. So if y'all interested in goin back HOME there's that.

Yui_Suzumiya198d ago

I'm interested! I was wondering if that project was still live or not.

Elda199d ago

If he praises it why did Sony shut the app down.

Jin_Sakai199d ago

He just said it was ahead of its time. Super slow HDD made it awful when traversing areas.

OptimusDK199d ago

It was trash 🗑️ and it still is. Walking around to go into stores etc is cringe and makes no sense at all. The hype around metaverse is totally overblown

Jin_Sakai198d ago (Edited 198d ago )

@OptimusDK

You don’t speak for everyone. Many people enjoyed it. But I do agree with the Metaverse being overblown.

__SteakDeck__198d ago

@OptimusDK You don’t know what you’re talking about. This was a good place to meet people.

Majors199d ago

As good as it was It missed the opportunity of becoming huge... Imagine if just eat or similar and you could order food from within checking out menus of local restaurants, Or items direct from Amazon etc whilst in shop in game checking out the items in real time, or even clothes from your favourite shops. The thing could have been Enormous ! I realise it could be dangerous in over spending but hell kids max out parents cards on fortnite, just need to keep control of them.
