Sony Online Entertainment's free-to-play MMO Free Realms is finally making its way to the PlayStation 3 on March 29. Yes, it will be free-to-play on the console, too.
"Free Realms continues to break new ground in the gaming industry," says SOE president John Smedley, "it will be the first free-to-play MMO to hit any console, the first family-friendly MMO to hit any console, and the second MMO, after our recent release of DC Universe Online, to hit the PlayStation 3 to date."
SOE says the PS3 version of the game will feature "familiar activities, minigames and adventures found in the PC versions," just with an updated user interface. The game will be downloadable from the PlayStation Store, and will feature Trophies. Yes… free trophies and pink ponies. It's a deal no one can pass up!

Hahaha
Though this really DOES seem to make Playstation Home even more irrelevant than it already is.
I'm surprised Sony didn't do this sooner. I mean, this is basically having a built in game for free with every PS3 purchase. Seems like it should have been there right out the gate.

No. Just...no.
Xzyliac: You may be indignant towards that statement, but what follows it is certainly true. You don't have to like it and you shouldn't, I suppose, but it's still not wrong in any regard.
BROHOOF
And the game looks so childish and feminine, how can anyone pass on it! XP
I must have it soon! Looks fun to mess around in!
"For those that already have a Free Realms Station account for the PC version, you will be required to create a new Free Realms account on the PS3 on the PSN, they cannot be linked and Free Realms PS3 will not be cross-platform compatible with the PC version."
It only does everything!!!!
Nice to see they are always keeping the hardcore gamers happy
I'm all up for that shit
Now we'll have 4chan members all over the damn site :/
