Microsoft's HOME: My GamerPad
The Wrath \| 5:36 PM on 06.26.2008	17 comments

That's right. It appears the minds at Microsoft think virtual worlds with controllable 3D avatars is viable. According to 4chan, My Gamerpad will be unveiled at this years E for All. I'm at a loss for words so I'll simply pose this question: Why?

...Did you just post "news" from 4chan?

the GAMEGOBLIN

If you're going to ask why for the 360 you'd have to question the PS3 equivalent as well, which I am because both are incredibly stupid ideas on all levels

WHY

the GAMEGOBLIN

Plus it's 4chan so I wouldn't trust it immediatley

the GAMEGOBLIN

*immediately

DarkTravesty

i'll pose this question why do people care about home? its just as bad as this.

Tubatic

according to 4chan?

that's kinda like siting wikipedia in a research paper . . .

AngelsDontBurn

The funny thing is that looks like it could be semi-legit.

If so, wtf. That's extremely dumb.

adultswim810

i think i just threw up in my mouth a little that is so disgusting

covah

I'm gonna say legit because this seems to be their use of Avatars. So I'll also say: lulz

Arttemis

I'm not remotely interested in Miis, Home, or this.

4chan is nice for... wallpapers...

Qraze

i want home just for the streaming movies off my and others hdds to make an awesome movie night of sorts, as long as your home space is invite only then its not breaking any public viewing laws. abiding by rules kick ass when you do them right.

GrayFox

I think home sounds retarded, and the same goes for whatever this is. Don't really have an interest in console second life.

sup /v/

4chan huh? Maybe you can broadcast a special report from Second Life while you're at it.

GuitarAtomik

That avatar looks really fucking ghetto. I'm not going to lie though. I wouldn't mind hanging with a bunch of Dtoid people in a virtual world as long as we could all chat with each other. It would be like a virtual NARP except with uh.....ghetto avatars.
