    Oscar’s Lobster Mania?! Another free game that you could have played in PS HomeEU that you now have to pay for here. Come on guys.

    Glad to see the RC game is getting updated.

    This update is horrible though. I’ll save my money again this week.

    Another look-alike space for $7? I'll pass. You'll play that game for a short-time and never use it again. The lobster avatar in EU was one of my favs for a funny avatar. If they sell that sperarte in NA, I'd buy it.

    RC getting updated is good. Always nice to see a dev updating an existing space.

    And I'll be checking out the Lockwood Figment additions for women.

    The companions? Enough already.

    Who's to say that's all we're getting from Marvel? Always best for sales to release the worst stuff and build up quality over time, Though this is Home so you're probably correct if you assume we won't get more :p

    As for the Lobster game, It wasn't totally free in EU but at least we got a pretty awesome lobster costume to show for the cash rather than another version of that same apartment..

    No joke there.

    I probably have 20 companions already - all completely free and rarely used. I can't understand why anyone would buy more than 1 or 2 companions ever.

    I've only bought 2 or 3 companions and I can honestly say many of the rewarded companions are much better than the ones I bought... granted companions had just arrived on Home when I bought mine so quality has improved quite a bit, that winter quest tiger companion will likely be my fave for quite some time ;D

    Another space with garbage rewards, I like Gary's idea of the games on one island or even having a pay to unlock area like Novus Prime officers quarters to get to the other game. VEEMEE could have done a showcase space and put both games there and even add the SFRGBT game, If we see the latter as a space next week I'll LMAO at the sheer stupidity of it all. The LOOT anime and posters are all that's worth looking forward to.

    Marvel is just selling tshirts. Really ???... They could make so much money if they would just sell the costumes. I will not buy a tshirt except maybe Punisher since that basically is his costume.

    I do not mind having to pay for Oscar's Lobster Mania. This was an exclusive to EU not NA. I'm happy we are able to have it if we want. Now if Audi were to come to NA.

    Everything else sounds great.

    Novus Prime will be a fun tryout.

    Lockwood always delivers with Holiday themes. Hope there will be a St Patrick theme in March.

    RC Rally is one of the funniest games in PS Home now upgraded. Yeah!

    I don't know what veemee is thinking turning eu's games in apartments and having people buy them when the games are not good at all. I'll be at Lockwood's collecting rewards and racing some rc's and maybe finish novus :) ..

    Seems to be a lot of recycling lately. Unfortunately, many of the spaces and games that would actually be exciting are not the ones we're seeing. How interesting are games like Go Fish, Lobstermania, ElectroKid etc.? And bundling some of these games individually with "new" personal spaces is madness.

    What happened to a free personal space like the Salt Shooter apartment that allowed users to try a demo version of the game with the option to buy the full game? Ditto for the free Audi Alpine lodge in EU, or the easily won GAW dojo in Japan and Tennis space in EU.

    I am really disappointed Lobster Mania looks like it is coming in the same personal space as Go Fishing last week. I wouldn't mind as much if it was actually in the same space just purchasable like Darla's Den or Novus Prime, but having two spaces that look the same but have different games is useless. I don't mind having to pay for these games, but I do wish they were consolidated into one personal space or made into some kind of pay to play public space.
