The big news from the GDC is Sony’s annoucement concerning the new Playstation Home. I would describe it as a cross between Second Life, XBox live and Nintendo’s Miis. Home sounds like it will usher in a new era of online gaming and it will truly take us into the “next gen” of the video game world. I am sure you have all seen the trailers at this point, but I found a video of a demo by Phil Harrison that really dives into what it means to be at “Home” … check it out. Beta testing will begin in April and the final release will be sometime this Fall/Winter.
