PlayStation Home will be taken offline this evening for our weekly content publish. While this downtime will occur approximately 24 hours earlier than what you have become accustomed to per our regular schedule, when the doors are re-opened on the morning of Wednesday, April 20th, you’ll find that PlayStation Home will be updated to version 1.5 and will, in turn, be bigger and better than ever before. PlayStation Home v1.5 was developed with one singular goal in mind: high-quality games. The 1.5 update will introduce a suite of new technology for developers with tools that will provide their future games with real-time multiplayer, improved physics, as well as more realistic graphics and animations. PlayStation Home v1.5 is packed with tools and features that will enable developers to expand the types of games possible on the platform – from first-person shooters with real-time, peer-to-peer multiplayer to racing games and more. Also coming with v1.5 are more avatar save slots (24!), new facial building features, better furniture management, various graphical tweaks to the Navigator, improved object placement options within your personal space, increased Chat Log options, and more. For full patch notes, go here. This week, the highly anticipated Sodium Blaster’s Paradise personal space will be released. Head to the Sodium Store in the PlayStation Home Mall to pick up this lush, sub-tropical personal space which includes the awesome Sodium TankTop 1.0 mini-game – a maddeningly addictive game where you can blast away waves of enemies with an array of explosive weaponry and fight your way onto the leaderboards.

These wide arrays of items are available in a variety of shades which will leave you with a huge amount of scope to create an apartment that is personal, comfortable and stylishly decorated. Pro-tip: The Cucumber Value packs make it even easier to create the look you desire without spending precious time searching the Sodium store.

Here’s how it will work: Each day nDreams will take an average of the top 50% of scores from each territory using both Orbrunner and Aurora Defense scores. The running total will increase as the average scores are added from the previous days and will be broadcast on the ticker in the Aurora space as well as on a special website set up for the event: AuroraWar.com. The prize? The top two best players from both North America and Europe will both be inducted as the first “Generals of Aurora.” View attachment 3617
GlassWalls wrote in reference to new avatar features/saves: "LOL! Nope. This I know for a fact. They're just a refresh to the existing ones, but I think everyone will enjoy the updates. If you are particularly fond of one now, I'd get in there, save it to your save slot and back it up! Many of them as they are now are going bye-bye." Psssst! Home's blog post for the week... | PlayStation® Community Forums
He was just referring to the current presets, No offense to anyone that does but I doubt many care to save any of the current presets lol
at last, theyve finally increased the save slots.. but i doubt theyve increased the maximum number of furniture and active items allowed, which i think is more important. :/ im not gonna get my hopes up.. this sounds like its mainly just an update for the developers.. :/ meh.. i guess its better than nothing..
Finally! I was really expecting this update to PS Home since it was first announced and I'm glad that its finally coming to us!
