PlayStation 3: Home

pshome_embed.jpgAll the players are now in the arena and the battle of the gaming consoles is far from over. It is true that the price tag of the PS3 has been facing serious criticism from the start but I still think that this gaming platform is way cool. I’ve been finding it hard to find a good reason to love the PlayStation 3, but I guess that from time to time their future looks a bit brighter. Today at GDC (Game Developers Conference), Phil Harison announced the PlayStation Home would be the online answer the PlayStation Network would have to Microsoft’s Xbox Live, and Nintendo’s Mii.

The most coherent analogy to PlayStation Home would be the well known Second Life; you get an avatar, character that you design to your likings, to evolve in a virtual space where you can meet friends, show off trophies and do a ton of interactive stuff. The keynote showed the ability to view trailers and movies from within the virtual environment, basically you got your character and a TV in it’s apartment, watching a trailer. Words cannot do full justice to Sony’s latest innovation; watch listen to the nice lady and be amazed, I’m sure impressed by what they pulled out of the hat.

    This situation is quite complex, and counseling is an appropriate way of addressing it. I don’t feel I can give any specifics on how to solve your situation. All that you need to keep in mind is that you have to look after him and yourself. You could always try to tell him how you feel about his behaviour. Don’t criticise him, just tell him how you f-e-e-l, don’t talk about his actions.

    Hope this helps in some way.
