Is "Home" coming home on the next PS3 update?

A juicy rumor has just surfaced on the internet, (you know how much we like rumors around here) and says that the upcoming firmware update, v2.00 for the PS3, will include the "Home" virtual community software.

According to the article posted on nextgenboards.com, an insider source says that the update will include things such as:

New drivers for surfing the internet and browser improvements
Updated flash player
Two versions of v2.00 - one with Home and one without Home.
Moving icons for movies and games can still move while accessing other content.

feels old, but let's see what the hawks say. *_*

a/w If it flies though, I am looking forward to wasting massive amounts of time with this app. I just hope we don't have to wait too much longer for 2pointOh.

I'd like to set up my virtual streaming VAIO and read and submit articles on N4G from my PSN apartment. That would be so cool, and I'd never turn off the PS3.

However this would mark the end of x360.

poor MS

you think this will be the end of the Xbox 360?... haha your having a bubble!

yeh i admit it is a nice thing to have available on a console, but come on! this kinda thing has been available on lots of websites (aka the PC) for AGES! it doesnt interest me much, and to be honest things COULD get out of hand if parents dont be carefull as i dont expect this even has an age rating, and ya know you cant stop weird people playing it. anyway hoping this kinda thing never happens on the PS3, i have to disagree with you that it will be the end of the Xbox 360.

my friend . You are like Big Ben. The tower not the QB.

This is just a very short speculation on the same rumor. It qualifies as duplicate to me.

Here is the original content from the news:
"The article did not state when firmware v2.00 will be released, but it sounds somewhat genuine since Sony has already set a launch date for Home sometime later this year."

Maddens Raiders6096d ago

I know I do remember reading that a while ago, hence, that's why I thought it felt a little "old". Sorry man.

The tower is St. Stephens clock tower. The 13 and a 1/2 ton bell that hangs within the tower is called Big Ben.

All i know is, Home will be coming in the next big update, am not talking about the minor updates and the regular scheduled updates every now and then, I mean the update that will require PSN to be down a few hours for all the new features to be available.

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis4h ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

It's worth a play through today.

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron - Coming Back for a New Generation

Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv7223h ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

Fallout 3's Reveal Led To Death Threats And Bethesda's First Security Guard

The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series

anast1d 1h ago

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,

But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.

LucasRuinedChildhood1d ago

As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.

VenomUK21h ago

The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.

I would’ve focused on the creative.

anast3h ago

The game went downhill at Fallout 3's release. This is when they started to cut corners.

gold_drake20h ago

there is no "but". the hell lol
you dont send death threats, period.

anast3h ago

Usually, you have good comments but this isn't one of them. It just rides the mob. We can do both condemn the actions and not let them use it for other things.

I can say I received a death threat and everyone needs to shut up. People are not honest and will use horrible things to their advantage.

Armaggedon15h ago

Not all games “look” current.

anast3h ago

Their games always look like the gen before it.
