When you search your email for something Scouting-related and the results include a very old email about PlayStation Home.
It feels simultaneously so recent, and yet a world away.

The BBC are currently, as I post this, running a Radio 1 3D chat room thing that looks almost exactly like PlayStation Home on the PS3. See the @BBCRD post I just boosted.
I miss that service.
This is basically one room from what I've seen. I'm currently using a touch screen device so the controls are rubbish.
»With #theMetaverse Crumbling Upon Itself, There’s Never Been a Better Time for #PlayStationHome To Make a Return.« https://www.vice.com/en/article/with-the-metaverse-crumbling-upon-itself-theres-never-been-a-better-time-for-playstation-home-to-make-a-return/?Metaver.se #Metaverse #VirtualWorlds #XR #VR #MR #AR #BeyondPictures
this is an interesting #playstationhome restoration project
New #introduction thread (2/3)
Also - veteran #gamedev for 25 years+. Started on #N64 (lead coder on Earthworm Jim 3D - sorry) through #XBOX #PS2 (lead coder on State of Emergency for #Rockstar - sorry again).
Done a variety of things since. Co-founded a #virtualworld studio ages ago and did stuff in #PlayStationHome (remember that?) on #PlayStation 3. Also worked in #VR #AR #museum installations #indiedev
Now consultancy (I can fix your project!). #Unity #Unreal, custom engines & legacy code
If anyone wants to return to #PlayStationHome #PS3 here's Destination Home's Discord https://discord.gg/playstationhome
@misjavanlaatum It got massively negative coverage by gaming journalists who I doubt ever went on it for 5 mins. Much like tech journalists spending 5 mins on Mastodon expecting it to immediately replicate what they experienced on Twitter.
Any social platform needs interaction and #PlayStationHome was the same. Although I remember Sony staff being happy when it closed as moderating it wasn't fun !
8 years after closing down, a group of hardcore PlayStation Home fans called Destination Home have got a playable version of PlayStation Home running. #PlayStationHome https://gamesense.co/game/playstation-home/news/discuss/the-playable-playstation-home-restored-by-fans/
The #MLBVirtualBallpark was pretty fun! It was fun to be in a stadium watching the Celebrity game. It also reminded me of the old days when I went on #SecondLife and #PlayStationHome.
I hope they do it again next year or maybe for All-Star games!
The latest #RType game looks interesting and fans of #PlayStationHome might like the park (I remember that GZ made #PSHome stuff so perhaps the park content shouldn't be a surprise!). https://youtu.be/mCz9fS6YCOU

I've largely ignored the PlayStation Stars loyalty thing as they make nectar points seem ultra generous! Anyway tonight I noticed a rare nod to #PlayStationHome
With the #PSVR2 launching next month, I think it is finally the proper time #Sony brings back #PlayStationHome
Take advantage of the #Metaverse hype, use the #PS5 speed and beef to make it not a slog, have that VR mode to make it a real #VRchat competitor, bolster it with all the interactive MiniGames that were in the original worlds.
Hell they could go all in and sell officially licensed virtual merch like the first time, even give a display for your #PlaystationStars collectibles
Here's how to unlock the PS Stars PlayStation Home Collectible. #PlayStationHome https://gamesense.co/game/playstation-home/news/discuss/how-to-unlock-the-ps-stars-playstation-home-collectible/
I saw a demo of the “meta meeting space”, honestly the #PlayStationHome on the #PS3 looks much better than this.
How about we setting up the meetings in #AnimalCrossing or any #VideoGame with a lobby would work.
