As i've said a million times i've had the chance to use home and yeah dont get your hopes up, it's seriously nothing amazing and yeah pretty much second life with a polished look to it. After the first 30mins of using it it instantly gets tiresome.

NOt sure if this is a stupid question, but when HOME is released, will people have to use it to communicate and play games with other people?

no it wont be the quickest. But for playing games with friends it will be the easyest.

As you all just meet up in home then jump into a multiplayer game together.

Shadowblade says:

Yup, it'll be great for say: talking about the match with mates, then launching straight into it all together (better than say... most games' lobby systems).

I'm a Beta Tester of Home and so far quite a lot of things still need improvement, but it's already looking great!

A few of my friends and I jump into Burnout for a chat when we get home from School/Work, now that we've all finished it I must admit, I'd rather be playing pool or something with them while chatting. Shadowblade, is it (or will it be) compatible with COD 4? That really needs the group jump in thingy. Also, if we fork out enough cash can we get pool tables and stuff in our aparments?

Shadowblade says:

Okay... so far it only works perfectly with Warhawk (group jumping into 1 game), and other games are receiving mixed reports... they only implemented game launching in last major update, so no real surprise there anyways...

You can all choose to meetup in the pool hall area of the gamespace, whenever you come into home and your friends are in home, you can jump straight to them (providing they are in a public space) and they can send you an invite...

Chatting is also really easy, voice, emotes and keyboard are all supported as well as on screen handy phrases and keyboard...

Hey it's better than a kick in the nether regions, esp considering it's free!
