Official PlayStation Cyprus Site

Taking to the stage at this year's Game Developers Conference (GDC), Phil Harrison - the head of Sony Computer Entertainment's Worldwide Studios - spoke about his vision for 'Game 3.0' - a new era of connected network gaming in which community and user-generated content play a huge part.
In addition to the announcement of LittleBigPlanet, Harrison unveiled Home, a new online, 3D networked community available exclusively on PS3 via the PLAYSTATION® Network.

In Home, PS3 users will be able to create their own unique avatar, and interact with others in a variety of spaces, designed to make the PlayStation community a more involving place than ever before. Fitting seamlessly into the PS3 experience, Home will be made available as a free download from the PLAYSTATION® Store, and can be launched directly from the Home Menu on PS3.

Community service

Home offers a sleek, modern environment to explore, with a wealth of community features that are set to enhance and expand the boundaries of digital entertainment. In addition to socialising in spacious common areas, users can design and build their own personal apartments, or houses, allowing users to customise their own space with a wealth of different items. It's even possible to show off personal video, pictures and other digital media stored on the PS3 Hard Disk Drive within your own space, before inviting others to enjoy the tasteful decor and carefully considered ambiance.

However you decide to set up Home, rich cmmunication options make it easy to mix with others. There will also be spaces dedicated to specific games, where fans can meet and discuss their favourites, or see the latest trailers in a uniquely communal setting. And when you're ready, get together and launch your favourite game for a multiplayer session.

A uniquely social place, there's no place like Home. Check for updates on this exciting new community in the coming months.
