The New York Times has confirmed rumors that Sony will today reveal "PlayStation Home," an online service for PlayStation 3. The news was leaked by an anonymous senior game industry executive who was not authorized to discuss the service. Besides the confirmation, scant details suggest that PlayStation Home will apparently blend elements of Xbox 360's Gamertags and Wii's Miis, namely 'achievements' and 'virtual avatars'; PlayStation Home will allegedly allow "users to create persisting online identities that record players' achievements in different games," reports NY Times. "As players progress through a game, they will unlock various virtual prizes that they can then show off to friends and rivals," said the anonymous source. PlayStation Home is currently scheduled to launch in the US this fall.

While expected to disclose full details during a GDC keynote later today, Sony's Phil Harrison briefly detailed the new initiative -- er, Game 3.0 -- in a statement published by NY Times: "The packaged media approach on its own offers a closed experience," he said. "You can only enjoy the game experience that the game developer put on that disc. But with the increase in adoption for the Internet and also the increased bandwidth, the Internet has democratized the audience to become content creators, as well as content consumers, and create what I call emergent entertainment. We've seen that with things like MySpace and YouTube and Flickr. Now we want to take those kinds of collaborative experiences and make them more central to the gameplay experience."

《纽约时报》刚刚确认了此前风传的索尼为PS3准备的“PlayStation Home”（PS之家）在线服务计划。此新闻由一位不便公开身份的匿名业界高层透露。除了确认该计划存在，他还公布了以下细节：
PS Home会融合Xbox 360 Gamertag 和 Wii 的 Mii 两种系统的元素，主要特性是“achievements”（游戏成就）和“virtual avatars”（虚拟替身）； PS Home会允许“用户创造持久的网络ID，记录玩家在不同游戏中取得的成就”。“随着玩家的游戏进程，他们会开启不同的虚拟奖品来向朋友或对手炫耀。” PS Home目前预定于今年秋季在美国推出。

有望在尚未开始的名为“Game 3.0”的本届GDC主旨演讲上公布全部PS Home细节的索尼全球工作室掌门 Phil Harrison 向《纽约时报》进行了简要的描述：
“只是自成一体的多媒体内容只能提供有限的体验。你只能享受游戏开发商摆在光盘上的全部游戏体验。但随着互联网用户的增长和带宽的增长，互联网将赋予受众以成为内容制造者的平等权力，虽然他们同时依然也是内容消费者，他们会创造出我称为‘融合化娱乐’的东西。我们从 MySpace 和 YouTube 还有 Flickr 中发现了这一点。因此我们希望能积极吸取这种经验，并将之置于更接近游戏体验核心的位置。”

【叉包评论】
无论如何，索尼终于开始意识到自己落后在哪里，并采取行动了……

会抄也是种本事啊

以前的引以为豪的创意

现在是不以为耻的抄袭了...

SONY啊，你对大家都有爱

07秋。。黄花菜都凉了。。

我在别处已经喷完了，话说真的能实现的话，倒也算不错了:D

和6轴出来的时候一样

看上去很美

等到明年，就会发现三个主机的网络模式完全一样
只有美工风格不一样

反正都能在线升级，这玩艺又不要啥特殊机能。

呵呵，同意ls的观点，要想获胜，还是在游戏上多下功夫把

微软是要收年费的!期待免费live，期待live在线升级为homelive，我要把虚拟形象做成士官长!!!

当精英死去的时候，平民在自娱自乐。

难道就不能自己有点创意吗？Sony太令人失望了～～

这个东西投入成本又不大？

说白了还没一个游戏投入成本大呢。

做点实事，是改善网络服务。

这西洋人设看着就让我吐

我还是那句话


对HOME这样一个从一年多前就开始制作，最近就要放公测的项目


硬要说SCE到现在才番然醒悟，真是一种KUSO

服务这种东西，本来就是越来越完善的，ps用户受益就可以了。
