Home to get an 'adults only' section?

Home to get an 'adults only' section? photo
     PlayStation Home

One would be naive for thinking that PlayStation Home would not be used by some pervoids in need of yet another cyber outlet eventually, but Sony may just meet them halfway with talk of adult sections for its online service. Sony has promised, however, that this won't degenerate into the mass gangbang that is Second Life.

"We have the ability to age-protect areas, and I think that's something that we will inevitably make use of," explained a Sony spokesman. "So, it's definitely not Second Life."

Age protection is not something that is supposed to happen at launch, but when it finally is implemented, there is talk of mature-rated game trailers and a virtual casino, although there's no talk yet of whether the latter will require real money. Certainly a possibility, and would probably make Sony a lot of cash from total morons. 

Just point me in the direction of the Ratchet & Clank porn and I'll be sold.

'Adults Only' section in Home + Kids that lied about being 18 or over = Jack Thompson's Wet Dream.

Well at least "Wednesday Night Warcawks" will be making a comeback.

Wow, I can't believe I added to the adult puns already posted. I feel ashamed.

Anyway, I hope for some Blackjack in Home. That would be pretty "pimp" as the kids say.

This gets us one step closer to "Boner Quest" being released.

How do they plan on age-protecting the thing?

"Click here if you're over 18"?

Somehow I don't think this will result in adult content. They will probably just age-protect sections for M-rated games.

It will never get as bad as SL...Sony wouldn't allow giant boners to be walking around the halls of Home.

I don't know,

Ratchet is hot and all, but I think I have a preference for Spyro the dragon or the Daxter Porn.


So When is nintendo doing Yoshi and Birdo porn on the wii?

That won't happen in the U.S. They'd have to get a gaming (gambling) license & that will never happen.

Sorry for the DP, but here is the original source and quote:

http://threespeech.com/blog/2007/09/sony-chiefs-on-web-20-and-gaming/

[b]"Q: Will we see areas that you have to be 18 in order to enter?

PE: Yes, probably. In the short-term, there probably won’t be many but in the long-term, we expect to see them. For instance, a casino or even somewhere you can go and see 18-rated trailers for games. That isn’t anything particularly sinister, but obviously, you’d have to prevent 12-year-olds going in there. Obviously, there are other 18-plus areas that you could imagine, but some of those might not come to fruition. But we have the ability to age-protect areas, and I think that’s something that we will inevitably make use of."[/b]

@TrailerParkJesus

You can probably call it 'due diligence' for the explicit and provocative if you just require a credit card to be attached to the PSN account.

For gambling it's a little more complicated.
