I'll go back to Home once it stops sucking. All the money Sony has and this is what they come up with?

In "Home" you can't really do anything.

I've been on once intentionally. Once accidentally (was overzealous with my scrolling and went to Home instead of the Store). Yet I can't bring myself to delete it, just in case it actually does serve a purpose one day.

I downloaded it, went into it once, haven't gone back. I use my PS3 to play games, and whilst it looks kinda like the Sims, it obviously isn't. Boring.

Haven't removed it in case other people in my household want to use it, but I can't see me going back there.

If Home had voice chat, the limited form of media sharing that was promised pre-beta, game launching, and a stronger focus on actual gamers then Sony would have a real winner. Honestly, I get the feeling that the only people that use it are little siblings and girlfriends.

That's funny, I've also been there twice. Once when it first opened up.. then again a month or so later to see if there was any actual "content" of any sort there now.

I've never been back.

"Home now had 12 million users, and that 85 percent of them returned more than once."

Like others have mentioned, this describes me perfectly. I logged in once when I first got my PS3, and then again a few weeks later to show my friend how ridiculous it was.

@ Elsa

They have that for Warhawk, though I haven't actually launched the game from there myself.

That does sound like a good idea though for a meet and play. With MAG's numbers who knows how crazy that could get (maybe Home couldn't support it) but it'd be neat for an alternative meetup before play.

I stand by my second post cuz I was repeatin' myself.

Its not about how many people logged in at some point, but about how many people use it on average and I'm going to bet that averaged is dramatically lower than 12 million. Probably even less that 50k, and I think I'm being generous.

@gareth... yeah, you can launch certain games from within Home... but there is the problem of meeting up. Home is comprised of various 64 person "instances" so if you log into Home you can't arrange to meet a group of people in a specific place unless you are on each other's buddy lists and then have the problem of "joining buddy" and hoping that there is still room in that Home instance.

The clubhouses also have a limit (I believe it's 32) and this is fine... but they limit membership also to 32... even though the chances of all members using the clubhouse at the same time is minimal. If they opened the membership to as many members as you wanted... but still limited the "instance" of the clubhouse to 32 (basically 32 seats... first come, first serve) this would work MUCH better.

... for example, this way any Dtoid PS3 owner could be a clubhouse member... and if they chose to drop by the clubhouse to get a game of whatever going, the clubhouse would be limited to 32 people... but at any point in time there likely would be room. This would work out great for say the Friday Night Fights (better yet if they could expand the clubhouse to encompass a full 64 person instance).

Meh... the point is that as a gamer I can't meet up with my own clan without jumping through hoops and barrels. It should be easier.

I guess signing up and logging in for 5 mins does constitute myself as a "user"... I'd spin those numbers that same way.

Yay! Slowly getting there guys ^_^ Congratulations! You'll get there ;).

Do I count as one of those users because I went on twice, got creeped the fuck out and never went back on?

12 million people in home with nothing to do, but walk around and look at things, maybe play the occasional ultra simplistic mini-game, get bored and turn home off. I keep giving home a chance, but it's always the same thing.

Before I had any games for my PS3 I went on and checked out Home. I revisited Home for the first time in months last night for a total of 30 seconds. I was though "Oh, well this is the same as it was months ago; boring" and logged off immediately. I wonder how many of those users clock in 6 or more hours in a week, hell, a month.

All Home needs is those TV's and picture frames promised in the early videos.

If my buddies can come to my space and watch an episode of something off my PS3 HDD, we will all use home a whole lot more, combined with the PSeye directional mic, we could literally watch shows together and chat as if we were in the same room!

That would make Home a viable app for me, as it stands I've removed it to save space.

But if they add TV's i'll redownload it for sure.

You know how I know you're gay?

I am very excited that I have found your post because I have been searching for some information about it for almost three hours. You have helped me a lot and reading this your article I have found much new and useful information about this ps3 sell statistics.
