Anyone know when this is due to actually go live? I'm assuming most if not all of it will be region locked anyway. Pretty good though to see this kind of content start to arrive on Home.
All passed Crackle content was region blocked Rach, so i guess this is also, but i can understand why they need to with legal problems. It's a shame, but I'm sure it's a big step forward for Home, if it is limited region.
Maybe this would be a good time to purchase HHills? :wacko: New EOD and "free" furniture to use anywhere? :wow: I mean I got $5.99 from Netflix or whatever that promo was? :: At least buy it for my Alt Account. :roflmao:
Oh. I'm slow today. So, even with an invite people from across the pond and elsewhere cannot view certain titles. Only viewable in NA. Awww. Yes. Let's hope someday. :down:
So do the personal space EOD players sink the streaming content or does everyone have the ability to see thier own like the public space. I would like to know...i am interested in getting one of the apts but not sure which one yet (although I am leaning towads yacht)
this has nothing to do with this topic and why are the thursday free items still have prices home does a new message of the day you think they would fix the problem
too bad because i am in Canada i always get the "this content is not available in your region" message and nothing but trailers play for me. i'm sure this will be cool for everyone else but wont it be annoying if in the middle of the movie you get sent back to harbor studio because the host gets booted.
ahh good, well maybe it was not working for me because they were still working on it. my HHH space looks alright since removing some items to make room for the removed stuff. i just used the single couch in the theater not the chair part. and only 3 pieces to make the sofa upstairs. also made a arcade in the bottom part.
I would assume it's region locked for now, since all the mentioned spaces are from NA Home. To release Crackle in other regions, they would have to release at least one of the spaces as well. :smartass:
Hey i have used the new system today it has about 100-150 movies same with tv shows but it is extremely slow unless you have a 50 mps or 100 mps speed on your internet!
