EA Sports complex finally Home

EA Sports' stylish PlayStation Home complex is finally live, after its debut earlier this year.

The EA Sports complex (which is apparently too good to be called an 'EA Sports space') houses two mini-games: racing and the long-awaited Texas Hold 'Em poker.

The complex will evolve over time to include such features as a golf mini-game, leaderboards, poker bracelets and a rewards system. Concurrently, the complex will feature the latest EA Sports trailers for Home users to view as they peruse the space.

The EA Sports complex is currently available for North American and European Home users, with support for other territories coming soon.

    Hopefully someday they can change my mind.

     This is what we get from EA? The company that has their fingers in virtually ALL sport franchises? Poker and a dinky car racing game? Thats IT? talk about dissapointment

    i am a poker fan and they nailed it on the poker the racing to me is a litle goofy i was expecting like a sooped up go cart look and it went colecovision pole position on me with annoyiong walls as for the golf driving range that is potentionaly promising as a whole its a fun space now if we could have tournaments for poker braceletts that would rock. oh yea and the free shirts are cool you get from playing both the mini games

    It's a nice start, it shows promis and a desire to expand into their other signature sports,but they really need to optimize the thing the frame rate really chugs and for some reason everything needs to load in when you get there like none of the videos or billboards are ever stored on your system. Also haveing to download a new space to go to the second floor feels sloppy.

    anyone know if they plan to open up the space at the back with what seems to be a footbal stadium and basketball court?

    It would seem that the EA space has a lot more stuff on the way, but rather disappointed in the current effort.

    Why has it taken so long to give us a couple of poker tables and a really bad racing game???

    Typical EA, milk the marketing and roll out poor customer satisfaction.

    I ran around the this morning.  It is quite impressive.  It will be nice to see it build out over time.

    Pretty cool, I'll get on it when my clan decides its not a waste of time :p

    The poker will get me back into Home.

    Hopefully SCE has learned that having no localization for a simultaneous release in a beta project is not problem for the majority of people that use it.

    Agreed with #3, free online poker on PS3. Why not?

    The poker game is a slight improvment over the Godfather 2 space, You can actually type and tell people to "shut up" when they constantly tell you to go "all in" just because they want someone to lose so they can play. Also a nice adition is the scoreboard so you can see how much each person at the table has rather than hoping that they arnt all just frozen there doing nothing but twiddling in their seats.
