Home beta test survey gives info on possible expansions

One of our readers has emailed us to let us know that Sony has sent each member of the Home closed beta a simple survey. Consisting of only a single "question", the survey asks testers to rate the importance of a list of features from 1 to 5. Here are our top rated features, the rest are after the jump.

I got the beta last night, id guess they are expanding.

[Lord Anubis]

I gave a 5 to all the options. =)

"After the jump" now a really popular saying on N4G, originally referred to the Killzone 2 video "after the jump" meaning after the soldiers jump from the drop ship and the gameplay portion of the demo began.

But anyways, I think the more options they have within Home, the more real and organic the experience will feel for the player. Give us features we can't find anywhere else. Give us things that are important and make Home even more vibrant! I am excited for this, and pretty amazed by the concept still.

"After the jump" has been around for a lot longer than that. It indicates that you must either scroll down past the ads or click a link to "read more" or both. It's sort of equivalent to "below the fold" in newspaper journalism.

man home would be sooo awesome if u had ur entire clan to hang out

[Silvanos]

They have to add clan space.

[macalatus]

The idea of a 'clan space' (no, not that 'klan') in Home Space is pretty much a given. Right now I could imagine such space resembling a cyberspace version of a college fraternity house. ;)

With millions of PS3 owners worldwide, this would be the 'myspace' of Sony, only far more interactive (no more waiting for e-mails to communicate)!

[Staircase]

I thought all of these were already confirmed to be in Home...?

[EZCheez]

And guessing that we will all be attending virtual E3's inside of Home within 2 years.

[PS-Wii-60]

thats exactly the concept behind Home!

Or think, this time next year (if Home has advanced to that stage by then) you could stroll over to the PS Store in Home to check out, lets say...MGS4. Enter the PS store, then find the dedicated room to check out the game.
The inside of the MGS4 room could have been designed by Konami to be an exact copy of an existing level in the game with ALL architecture consistent with the MGS4 world. Maybe even have MGS NPCs, like Liquid, Meryll or Vamp, to add to the illusion or even help you with questions.

Theoretically, since its a virtual world, it could be an actual gameplay level from the game.
Maybe in time (prolly a long time from now) the dedicated rooms in the virtual PS Store WOULD BE THE DEMOS.

Imagine: you're curious about a game so you enter the room, baddies start shooting at you and you have to take cover THEN you A) be a badass and start shooting back; B) hide in the shadows and go for the stealth kill; or C) completely wimp out and run back into the lobby with your tail between your legs.

AND all this is just the tip of the iceberg!
There's so much fkn potential its making my head spin 0_o

[PlayStation360]

seriously, that would rock. Bubbles for u bro.

[Kutaragi Ken]

Our cheap gimick to get idiots to biy a ps3, ppl so dum thesre day huh.

[macalatus]

Funny how pathetic Xbots like you would diss a PS3 feature as either a "cheap copy of MS" (even if it vaguely resembles an MS thing) or a "cheap gimmick" (for something that is totally original and that MS lacks). Seriously, those are like the only "intelligent" (cough, cough) things you douchebags have to say. To me, that smacks jealousy.

[Mr VideoGames]

i have a NEW!!! Video for you PS3 Fans

[Shenzilbur]

Observations of a financially non-biased PS3 fan (I didn't spend any cash on mine) you Xbox fanboys seem so arrogant. I mean seriously you go around saying screw all the other consoles ours is god! While you are completely oblivious to the fact that the PS3 is an enjoyable console. I do wonder if a PS3 was in that box due to what happened to it. (But I must admit I was waiting eagerly to see what chainsawing it would be like)

[Vip3r]

You sir fail at life.

[PS-Wii-60]

The funny thing is, it's obvious he's jealous with envy AND is interested in Home for himself or he wouldn't have clicked on this article in the first place!

VideoGames4Life=Soon2BePS3Con vert ;)

[macalatus]

@ VideoGames4Life,

Wow, are you really that pathetic (probably more so than the douchebag above you) as to go to a PS3 article and post an anti-PS3 rally message and video? It makes me wonder if you're somehow employed or some way affiliated with Al-Qaida, since only people with that kind of intelligence do these kinds of stuff.

[Hymons]

I agree with the pathetic part.. all the other stuff, while somewhat true is kind of not needed.

Oh btw, I reported VideoGames4Life comment as off topic.

[PS-Wii-60]

I've seen him post that same video on at least 4 different threads that I know of and seemingly every chance he gets.

The way he keeps posting the video makes me feel like he's proud of it, as if somehow he might have made it himself, although I'm sure he didn't. Someone like that doesn't have enough originality to create anything for himself.
In fact, he's probably reading this right now and saying to himself "Oh yeah? I'm gonna show him!" He's gonna DL software for editing videos, install them, take one look at them then give up because it's too overwhelming and actually requires thought processes and hard work!

Besides, that video wasn't even funny. No, I'm not being biased. I love my Wii and will defend against it but, I still laughed all the way through the Wii Hate The Wii Song.

Jumping on the Sony Hate bandwagon is the IN thing to do and that manifests itself with posters like him. Back in history he'd be the type of person burning witches at the stake and hunting down christians because, well, everyone else is doing it, I guess I should too.

Seriously, Loser4Life, unless you're getting paid with real dollars by M$ to spread propaganda, you need to GetALife!
And start thinking for yourself.
