    Build Your Dream City in Home Tycoon, Coming Soon to PlayStation Home from Hellfire Games.

    Home Tycoon is the first 3D city-building game where you can create your dream city from the ground up, explore it at street level as your own avatar, and share your metropolis with friends – and it’s coming soon, exclusively to PlayStation Home.



    Hellfire Games has been working to put this game out to the Home community which features a robust city-building simulation, tons of story-driven missions and activities, vehicle driving (complete with turbo-charged cars and stunt ramps), and over 50 avatar rewards to unlock.

    From Hometown to Metropolis
    As the newly-elected Mayor, you’ll gather resources and broker strategic business deals to kick-start your town’s economy. You’ll need to work with representatives from the mysterious yet eco-friendly TransUtopia organization and the profit-hungry GloboSyn corporation along the way. Will you lead a truly green city built on renewable energy, or choose the more profitable route to prosperity?

    Home Tycoon has over 60 unlockable buildings and you’ll be able to craft and personalize your city with apartment buildings, luxury homes, public parks, power plants, research hospitals, police stations, and much more.

    Every new city has its fair share of problems… and who better to deal with them than an amateur Mayor? From city-wide fires to complete nuclear meltdowns, you’ll wear plenty of hats (figuratively and literally) to save your town from total destruction. Each mission series comes with its own over-the-top storyline and activities, with tongue planted firmly in cheek.

      some extra info i found :)
      When the game launches (Very Soon™ now...) you'll get your own city absolutely FREE. You'll jump straight into building your city as the new Mayor, with missions available immediately. Each city is its own game space that other Home users can visit from the Home Tycoon Train Station. So the core game itself is free, like all of our games in PlayStation Home.
      At launch, we’ll also have premium buildings, virtual items with permanent in-game bonuses, and expansion packs containing new missions, activities, and rewards, in addition to all the free content already available.

      Home Tycoon does not run in a personal space, and you don't have to buy anything to start building a city. It's been awhile since I've been back on Earth, but I'm pretty sure that most city ordinances prohibit placement of furniture in public areas, so you'll probably have to settle for other things, like skyscrapers, parks, zoos, Earth Fleet Recruiting Centers, etc...
      if you're wondering how many buildings you can have; let's just say that it's A LOT more than 100 ")

            The problem with stuff like this in Home is the level of detail is always really bad due to memory limits, the ideas are good its just a shame they can not look better.
