@Amerijapoxicano: I would say it's worth a full $60 or $120 here in Australia.

I remember I got confused about Home and Little Big Planet when I first heard about them because they were both announced at the same time. I thought LBP was going to be free. Well, I think $40-50 is worth it.
Home will be interesting. Sounds like something that'll be worth visiting from time to time. Not reinventing video games, but a nice ocassional distraction.

Amerijapoxicano

out of all those people that downloaded that home theme for access to the beta, did they ever actually do that? lol and this sounds like it will be good if Home is what they said it would be. If it is anything less then it will prob be a shelf product.

Don't worry Kotaku will find something ;)

@Ajax103: I was thinking that they would both be released around the same time. Sony can have a nice holiday season with these two put together.

AngelMayLaugh

Hmmm... not only am I interested in Home working with Little Big Planet. But other future games they will release.

shrek187

ya, and when theres content from your favorite games in home, of course you're going to be excited about it... unless you have no soul, that is.

ya, there are definitely several reasons to be excited about home. the only thing i'm worried about is that my internet connection might be too slow, even the playstation store seems to load slowly on my connection. hmm.

joeloliol

I think it would be very fitting if they both were released around the same time, since we've been talking about the for such a bloody long time!
But when the time comes, what will we gripe about?

I'm worried...

Ajax103

Assuming Sony can keep their public beta for Home on target for some time this year -- which I actually think they will -- the sky's the potential for Home.

Man, October is going to be a crazy-ass month for games. Gotta find a better paying job.

jerimas

Its bound to happen, there is far too much potential.

ryivanV2

Shall we say... Little Big Stuff?

At any rate, this is the kind of pseudo-announcement that gives me the warm fuzzies. Yanno, the kind of feeling that you get when you've been right all along and that Home will be the most awesome thing ever.

I think I need to get it checked out though, it's starting to burn when I pee.

PEWPEWGreenLaser

I think I'll just about be able to resist buying a PS3 for now... Once both these hit, especially LBP I think I'll just about give in.

@jerimas: mah i hear you mate ;x

EmeraldCockroach

You can tell they work together by the massive delays on both.

Rurik

The INSTANT I see a Sack Boy running around Home sporting a giant phallus, I'm logging out for keeps.

TitillatedOcelot

i sure hope home and lbp will work together i want my trophies and i want to show them in my "home"

simi510

it would be cool if you could run around as Sackboy in home if did something. (like unlocking the platinum trophy) imagine little sackboys running around in home!!

Maxilicious

@Rurik:
A one month delay from Sept to Oct on LittleBigPlanet is massive? lol

"The short answer, though, is that I can't announce anything right now -- but I've already seen great LittleBigPlanet content in Home"

translates to:

"The short answer is no. But yes."

Anaralia

If sony just had home based around littlebigplanet they would have won the console war and WW3-5 but not 6... Atari will win 6... you'll see

I find it wierd given how easy it would be to make the game do what they want home to do... i mean it'd just have a hub word only... better

A front menu with Sackboy running around the screen would rock...

Though maybe sony doesnt want sackboy as a mascot.. for shame sony...

though i dont own a PS3 and have played one once so ill shut up..

@hastyp: *sackboy

hastyp

I'd rather be a sackbay in Home than a realistic human wearing leather pants and a ballcap or whatever. Does that make sense? Anyway sackboy > humanity is my point.

hastyp

Everyone should read the interview.In game information will be transmitted by RSS feed? Excellent.

"Are Home And LittleBigPlanet Going To Work Together?"

Hope not. Please keep your 'Home' out of my LBP

Lemming

Your all going to be soooo disappointed with.......well, if you don't know by now ,you never will.:)

Sugaray

LBP may just be the temptation I need to buy a PS3

PS - I don't think I've seen it mentioned anywhere, but when anyone else hears or sees "sackboy", do they think of a nutsack? I'll be making some homemade textures for my sackboy.

IndustrialJones

I'd bet the most likely scenario is a screen shot of your character from LBP being an optional portrait in your home room.

mikeleddy83

I don't want to make a stupid Sony avatar. I want my Home avatar to be my custom Sackboy.

i_am_not_jon_ames

Anyone want to take bets that Home never sees actual release?

moofrank

@moofrank:
I don't want to take your money.

enewtabie(wants a job at Insomniac Games in NC)

in all honesty, they should have scrapped Home along time ago and rebuilt an online avatar community around Little Big Planet.

Meeting strangers as a sack boy is lot less creepier than meeting transvestite avatars in furry costumes.

BallPtPenTheif

There's no way that Sony will ignore this kind of potential. Or maybe they will; Sony has done some stupid things before.

Altersparck

@enewtabie(wants a job at Insomniac Games in NC): The massive delay I believe he's talking about is from September 07 to October 08. Anyhow, I can't wait for both Home and LBP.

@enewtabie(wants a job at Insomniac Games in NC): The giant massive delay I think he's talking about is from September 07 to October 08.

colonelschvatz

LittleBigHome, eh?

Schokobaer

does that mean they will both release at the same time?

Awoken is waiting for R2
