PlayStation Home: gamescom 2012

[Гость PlayStation®]

PlayStation Home will briefly be offline from 8.00am. on Wednesday 15th August for routine maintenance. Here’s what to expect after the update…

Keep your eyes peeled for gamescom 2012 in Home! The Sony press conference will be streamed live into the Home Cinema at 6pm Tuesday 14th August UK time. But don’t worry if you miss it the first time round because on Wednesday August 15th the gamescom space will be available to download, and will be looping the press conference together with trailers of this year’s announced game titles! There is also a fantastic minigame that includes all your favourite classic gaming characters. If you win, you get an awesome gamescom branded reward!

To celebrate the launch of Conor Maynard’s new album on Music Unlimited, we are bringing you a collection of rewards for both him and her available from Home Square!

Sodium’s VICKIE has evolved from a simple user interface to a firm fan favourite and now it’s time for her to take that next step. VICKIE is breaking her programming and escaping the Sodium Hub and she needs your help to explore the rest of PlayStation Home. She has created thousands of replica units you can wear and using her multi-link neural net, she can experience all the sights, sounds and fun PlayStation Home has to offer while her central processor remains safely running the show at the Sodium Hub. You’ve got to love modern technology!

Leaving the Sodium Hub, even in a virtual sense, is going to be quite nerve-wracking for VICKIE. The Sodium Hub is all she’s known for a very long time now. So, to add a little moral support, Sodium’s scientists have created a couple of plucky little robot companions to keep her company. Sijed the Cobra looks fierce enough to keep Vickie safe and Bijel the Jerboa is so bouncy and friendly, he’s sure to keep her spirits up as she battles to comprehend a new data stream.
