According to Internet reports, Sony’s online community service, PlayStation Home, is scheduled to appear at the upcoming Online Game & Community Service Conference (OGC) next week.

Details are currently sketchy at present, though it is understood that the company plans to hold a detailed presentation on the service when the event kicks off on March 14.

PlayStation Home has been in development since 2005, and plans to offer consumers a wide variety of online-based features, such as the ability to customize your own virtual “home”, meet with other users, and view your accomplishments in the "Hall of Fame".

Home is currently planned for a Spring 2008 release.

    Wufei your such a tool... You people need to get a life who put 1st.

    I hopel they have something new to report, and not just another demo. I'm still excited about Home. I'm sure will get it by summer, which is fine with me. With Army of Two, GTAIV, Haze, MGS4, I will be plenty busy. Not to mention COD 4 online play has taken up most of my gaming time.

    xdeth why dont you and the rest of the people who hate on the people who say 1st just shut and Back FTU. Lets the damn people have some fun, for god sakes everytime i read a article and someone says first, somebody else is in there trolling the guy. I mean if your adult enough it shouldn't even bother you. grow up and get over it, its not going to stop On Topic: Home is taking a while, i have no doubt its gonna be quality when it comes out but i can say im not as hyped as i was when i heard about it, Not to say im not hyped, just not nearly as hyped as when it was announced.

    can't we all just- get along? I hope this event leads up to the release of Home at the beginning of Spring.

    I really hope Home lives up to half of the hype. Has anyone in the beta even commented on how it "plays"?

    " Home is currently planned for a Spring 2008 release." ? Is that not the Open Beta that is scheduled for Spring 2008.. I would be very surprised to see Home go public before late 2008 or early 2009... But if it comes sooner im happy!

    @ Xdeath. I totally agree with you man about the first thing! its really annoying to read dumb useless comments like that. But the funny thing is, to see them do it a while then they say first but someone beats them to it and their second with first in the message. Thats the only USEFUL thing about it, otherwise kids don't smoke crack like our friend wufei and the rest of his 1st legion.

    Great news to hear about Home! Can't wait til it comes out so I can dance like an idiot with my avatar!

    • 8:32pm GMT - March 5th, 2008

    No the open beta is planned for Spring 2008 and is very questionable... Home is planned for around June for the official release.  Check your facts.
