PlayStation Home went into open beta late 2008, and closed early 2015. It was a strange, yet interesting service Sony offered. Many gamers easily dismiss it as a total failure, but in actuality it had a fascinating history. Filled with loyal users, successful developers, and toxicity. This is the story of PlayStation Home; dismissed but not forgotten.

The craziest thing about PlayStation Home is that kids nowadays will never know what this is. That alone simply blows my mind.
Dude just think about the people who were only on xbox or pc during that time. They will never know in their life what ps home was truly like.
Whilst watching this video I was so glad that I was a part of PS Home when it launched. I only started playing it a month after it launched in January 2009 (since it had launched the previous month in December 2008) and I only found out this when listening to the video, otherwise I thought it had been released for ages. Even from watching videos on RUclips kids nowadays will still never be able to understand how it really felt when played. The whole experience is so nostalgic for me as it's almost been 11 years since I first played it, wow man. Plus those were the childhood/early teen years whilst I was at school so that also made it more enjoyable and memorable for me.
I was 5 or 6 when I played it I miss it so much
Its end made me go to xbox
@@RatedRRaj Yeah I started playing in like 2011 because I didn't get a ps3 until 2010. Before that I was on xbox360. At that time I was 14 and I played it for about a year, year and a half. I was 15 when I stopped. I quit because I got way into it and I even had relationships with girls on there. They had mics and cams(PlayStation eye) so I knew they were girls. Then one day I'm like.. I can't be doing this anymore. Good times though.
I loved how if you had movies in your library you could invite friends to the theatre and all watch together
Matt Torres This was one of the coolest and most underrated features of Home.
It would stream from the PS3 hard drive? That's really impressive.
Bigscreen on VR platforms it's a similar features that is one of the killer apps on vr
I remember you could watch movie trailers as well.
Yep. But thankfully you can now do this in VR with friends and its more immersive too.
If you were part of Home you will never forget it. It was so special.
It was and it was free too 😢
Soooooo special bro… peak of Gaming for me
They’re stupid asf for getting rid of it, imagine the fortune they would’ve made during the pandemic. Would’ve pretty much got them all their money back and then some.
I miss it
You could tell from the get-go, Home really was just ahead of it’s time.
Seems like Sony makes a lot of things “ahead of its time”
Definitely. I remember jumping on and it was amazing but basically nobody was in it at the beginning.
It was really the real first meta verse tha looked good
i got mad when my girl was up there tho flirting and really mingling i was like wtf! but looking back it was wayyyy ahead of everything sony should bring it back its why sony is #1 because x box was on their heels and then home dropped and then the community was locked
@@triworldsystemsuniverse5292 strange away of saying I don't trust my girlfriend
As a former PlayStation Home user thank you it means a lot that this is remembered.
Hopefully there is a 2.0
hilyfe01 that would be great
You guys should look up tower unite
And ace combat player? Interesting...
@@iluvwqcfrt15_53 you bet my friend
I talked someone out of suicide by role playing as a bartender in PS Home
[EVERYONE LIKED THAT]
Joe?
Good times in ps home🙃
Good onyou
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
PlayStation home just hit differently, I can’t really explain it . But all the people I met on there was wonderful.
I can only agree my guy
Every time i think about PS Home i allmost cry due to just missing it and just being proud of sony
Me too. I met a single man using a girl avatar that loved to eat snacks and sleep a lot and tell a bunch of lies on how she worked at nasa
Yeah. I liked how you could place objects wherever you wanted in your apartment. I would stack shelves on top of themselves to acts as walls so my apartment had multiple rooms lol.
Anyone else feeling a little “Home” sick after watching the footage of Home?
Brings back so many memories.
I'm heartbroken bro, I first played it when I was 10 and last played when I was 14... I'm 22 now 💔
Me
@@masrr3678 well im 15 now and i was like 8 years old when i played it u dont know how sad i was when it shutdown because i didnt really understand english so i didnt really know what it meant but i had alot of fun and my old profile pic is a pic of me swimming in ps home 😭
I never got to experience it 😭 I missed 14 years of PlayStation. Stopped playing on my PlayStation 2 around 2006 and got a PlayStation 4 in May 2020 and PlayStation 3 in 2021.
@@Cody-Bear Eh. I played PS Home around when it released since I happened to get a PS3 around then when I was 13. I played it for about an hour and then got bored since all I did was wander around aimlessly.
I played it about a year later with my friend. I remember the LBP world distinctly but not much more, I didn't really see what to do. I think now with VR headsets they could make a VR Chat type thing. If PS Home held on a bit they could have integrated that probably.
Currently playing VR chat a bit recently with a headset and it's very similar. It's free to play on PC and you don't even need a VR headset.
Also played URU Online before even PS Home.
I met my wife on PlayStation Home back in mid 2009 we are still married we now have 2 wonderful kids thank you Sony
That's beautiful man its stories like these that make me have hope that theyll bring it back!
Awwww I met my boyfriend of 7 years on home. We aren't together anymore only due to family issues and he was originally from Maryland and had to go back but we are still friends
@@Lynn-r7x Sony needs to look at all this and put PS Home at Least on the PS5 or at least version of it . Have it already preloaded on tho the system , I'm not asking for the possible thousands I spent on virtual items least 2k lol I just loved hanging with my Fam me and my wife used to hangout at the Central Plaza and Bowling Alley , great times ...we still play together since we are both gamers and our 2 kids are playing too lol
Liam Browning Is it really that inconceivable lol? I met my wife on a pen pal site. I was trying to learn German and shot her a message, the rest is history.
Dakota Rogers No, I really mean a place where people go to make international friends. I also have a bunch of male friends here in Germany that I made on the same site when I lived in the states. It’s 2019, is it really that incredible that people start relationships online? You seem like you think this is impossible or something.
Insanely ahead of it's time. If something like this launched today it would probably do pretty well.
You mean the metaverse?
@@sauldownbadman876 VR Chat is Metaverse and is the most popular by far and if we are talking about PS Home clones, there is Nebula Realms. It's rather disappointing right now, I check in every now and again but it's dropping users rapidly it seems.
If you have a PlayStation 4 or a PlayStation 5 you could get nebula realms for free it’s similar to PlayStation home
@@patzillathekilla8444 but i think its just not the same
I think if i would play it i couldnt enjoy it because i just know PS Home is and will allways be better
Where PS Home was free and could be downloaded on every PS3 it was different. It was advertised to every PS3 owner on the main menu so it had a ton of regular people hopping on whenever they were bored with whatever games they owned.
I miss this period of gaming so much it hurts.
If you have a PlayStation 4 or a PlayStation 5 you could get nebula realms for free it’s similar to PlayStation home
Nebula is rubbish its way off from psh
@@patzillathekilla8444unfortunately Nebula never lived up to expectations. It's nice for a bit but it's just not the same.
I miss this period of gaming too, there was a special feeling that about that 07-2011 era that was so special. Buying furniture and hanging out at special areas and just winding down on this after a long session on LittleBigPlanet…
Much of this is just because of nostalgia. You could make the argument games today are just money oriented and its true, but i imagine if we were still teens today, we would still dig the AAA Market nowadays. We would still play fortnite, the newest call of duty and have similiar fun times as we had back then. When you grow older, your perception simply changes. When you were younger, everything was new and exciting. Now youve seen it all and it became stale. Its just how it goes.
PlayStation Home has so much nostalgia for me, and for that reason, I LOVE it. It may get a lot of hate, but it was popular back in the day.
Ya I lived it as well
Retendo where have you been!? It used to get hate ALL THE TIME
Retendo PS3 games used to hate in it non stop back in the day
Hung out there quite a bit. Think I eben watched a couple of Sony conferences on there as well.
It was the perfect place to chill when you were bored of games. They slowly updated it and made it better and better. It got so big it felt like it's own game. They made millions, because even I spent money on some of the accessories. Playing chess, playing pool, bowling, and that was just the tip of the iceberg. I don't know why they abandoned it. Would be nice to see it come back for PS5, because gaming is getting more and more social. Would be nice to also make it compatible with VR.
Sony should really think about bringing this back with VR support.
Play Rec Room! It immediately reminded me of PS Home when I tried it and is one of the better VR experiences in general.
@@jaydee2847
Exactly, but just imagine the strengths of Rec Room combined with the strengths of Home, that's the goal here.
Wow f social media when you have playstation home. That's a great idea. Sony should be takeing notes.
VRCHAT is great as well
Pusher Terrence honestly Rec room is filled with children. Which is different than ps home. I remember being in a “fam” and dissing other “fams”... man were those the days.
There was a hub on Home when I was a kid that showed a maze in a scary theme. I spent hours failing it and finally a user lead me to the ending and we were teleported to a secret party room with a crazy floor and tons of other users. We all had so much fun chatting in the room and laughing at users who couldn't get in. The tree right outside you could glitch walk up it and teleport into the jail where people would pass by and ask how to get in there. I even found a glitch on a old promotional hub that you could use the grim reaper avatar to glide through the wall after sitting on a bench and you could get behind a counter and act like you worked there while 30+ people were gathering around asking how the hell you got back there. Some girl who was back there was making sure nobody was uploading tutorials on RUclips for it so it could be kept a secret. I miss the game so much.
Burn Zombie Burn? I used to love the maze place.
@@ronniebarter3857 Yeah that's the one. The other place was the siren one.
Dude ikr,I legit cried after watching this vid..
Yup lol, Burn Zombie Burn and Siren Lounge: Ward of Despair. There was always that guy wearing the Pyramid head costume sitting in the seats by the wall. If you didn’t have that costume you would have to sit in the chair get up dance and then hurry up and try to glitch walk on it. Good times😢
"We all had so much fun chatting in the room and laughing at users who couldn't get in."
If it wasn't for that kind user who helped show you the way, you would've still been laughed at to this day.
I spent a fortune over the years on ps home but was devastated not because all that money was for nothing but because it was shutting down...I remember that very moment it shut down and feeling like literally a part of me was gone in that moment...I sat there almost as if I was in shock or it just didn't register.. I'd love if they brought ps home back
I know this feeling so well
@@SykotikShadow we need a petition to bring back PSHome lol.....really though
@@GDI-disc-acceptedthese types of games are the best
@@GDI-disc-accepted Some people have brought it back, lookup Destination Home (can play on pc or ps3 if you still have it)
It's never coming back along with avatars and themes
This game was just ahead of its time. Stuff like VRchat, Rec Room, and so much more are popular now thanks to VR, adding a new level of social interaction.
Yes VRCHAT
Can you enlighten me on what you mean ?
I was on the last 24 hours when the game shut down, i remember all the avatars were saying “goodbye PSN home” and what not. such good times on this amazing social game..
life simulator idk why but that made me sad lol
Travis Lee it is sad :((
You’re right
I was there
P
There's a certain vibe about Home that kind of touches my soul. I know that sounds weird, maybe it's the nostalgia with the design, the home you live in, the sound effects, etc.
if you have a PlayStation 4 or a PlayStation 5 you could get nebula realms for free it’s similar to PlayStationHome
PS5 could bring home to where it should have been. With the ssd and improved graphics, better content and custom avatars. Home was a great experience, but 2020-2021 it would be better.
If Sony were only smart enough..
It could be everything they wanted it to be now
2 years later... Still no promises of pshome. But a Japanese studio might be making it. I spotted what resembles the home logo on the studio tour video. But this is just my speculation.
It's so crazy to think that everyone we used to speak to on here are now grown adults and are getting along with their lifes
Yess. Heart break, allot of my ps home friends stopped playing Playstation & have gotten married or had kids & lost contact with quiet a few of my closest ps home friends
Not all I knew a lot of kids that were like 10/8 or a little older
I used to play when I was 11-12, I’m now 18
Almost all my buddies don’t play anymore. I have great memories with my buddies just playing match after match until we had to get some sleep. I miss them a lot. I’m talking about ps4 though
Yea, pretty much all of my PSH friends never went online after the closure. Never returned. Not even on the PS4.
PlayStation Home was my go-to place when I get bored of the games I have. I miss it, honestly.
Lol yeah I did that a lot. After playing league story on FIFA I'd hop on and just bum around. It was almost therapeutic
As do we all, I met most of my friends on Home than any other game in my library.
Yes 😂

@@patzillathekilla8444 no cap? frfr?
@@patzillathekilla8444 I just checked it on the store it looks very similar
I remember riding bikes, hanging on the beach, swimming with strangers to that little island, parties, clubs dancing with people, fairs meeting people, bars, made so many friends and memories I wonder how they are now. I also helped people put of very dark places and it was so nice. I’ll forever miss this game. Oh! Also yacht partying and being able to actually watch Netflix in the game was insane
Not even joking, would love if the ps5 launched with home
Check rec room.....
I was sad that it didn't carry over
As much as I love my PS4 I was so disappointed it wasn't there, legit when I was feeling down and was bored of playing games and there was nothing good on TV or Netflix I'd go there and spend hours talking either with random people or my few friends, going and dicking around in the Cantina from star wars or chillin on that beach cove
Watch out for the server freezers.
@@HeavyMetalConspiracy Exactly I didnt really appreciate it as much as I do now.
When I was around 10 and I had no games to play I would play the promotional free mini games on Home 😂
Forbidden Siren and Wipeout was my fav
We all did lol
yeaa
@@ARINOXMUSIC siren was scary back then, being 13 was good..
@@datboii4953 for sure !!!
The craziest part is having 2 friends i met on PS Home still on my friend list who I still talk to once a year.
Home would work today. It shouldn’t of been removed.
During this lockdown time definitely
They almost need to do a recreation. This was more than 10 years ago. If they did it now it would be flawless
On Kami
Shouldn't *have been removed
This buggy mess was the best thing ever. Even if you didn't spend money
I remember getting my PS3 on Halloween 2009. I didn’t get any game with it cause my immigrant parents believed it came with a game 😂. I was just happy to have the console. I was happy to play demos all day anyway. So I was updating the console and everything and I see this thing called PS HOME. Downloaded and installed it. Holy shit was I mind blown
Immigrant or ignorant? It makes a huge difference
WrestlinGifs wtf I watch all your videos bro😂😂 they are great!
Same! Had no game to do anything with the console, then i saw
this Home. And i was really mindblown of all this technology and stuff, i was hooked
*Knocks on door* ICE! OPEN UP
FlipR I live in Canada so I’m good
I liked Home and wish they'd bring a version of it back.
Loved that some titles would give you items for your Home apartment based on obtaining certain trophies.

@@patzillathekilla8444 Why am I just finding out about this now? And considering it's been out for about 6 years now, it's likely dead.
PS Home was the Online Sims, that was changing every month until Sony stop supporting it, the only thing that was holding it back was the Hardware, it took really long to load the maps but when it did it was really fun, especially the bowling area with pool tables.
That's the problem with consoles.
@@brandonbarnes8997 Yeah agree, the ps3 wasn't powerful enough to run, maybe the ps4 would of been better but they would of added more content then it would be slow again, the ps5 is probably the better place to Run because of the hardware is way more faster with its loading speed.
Sony problems is that they seem to release stuff to early, like hardware and then try to fix it though software (ps5 is going to be an awesome console), maybe they could make a PS Home 2 but doubt it.)
But least Sony takes risks tho and when they pay off, its awesome 😀
Ps4 is still an awesome console
I don't really like pc gaming cause if something break I find it hard to fix the problem with consoles its pretty much just plug and play.
@@WilsonFox123 I dont mean to be rude, but u sound like someone that doesn't know what they are talking about. Consoles can fix loading times by investing in ssd instead of hdd amongst other things. Pc gaming u literally turn on ur computer and then click on the game and ur playing... how is that hard. Things dont just go bad. I have owned a gaming pc for 3 years and have never ran into a problem except a freezing game which happens on consoles too. Consoles are still PCs except with limitations. Ur just buying a shit version of a pc with limitations and no freedom and less of a game selection. U want to play with a controller pc supports controllers, you want to play on ur tv plug it into a tv......
@@brandonbarnes8997No it fine your not being rude but i just think console's are better than PC in Play Ability also it's much cheaper.
With the loading times, thats what i was talking about (HDD to SSD)
With a PC if there is a problem you need to fix the hardware or software also you need to optimise it yourself cause every PC is going to be a bit different.
(Not to mention the exclusive like Mavel Spider-man, God of war, and many other on PS4. well for now)
@@WilsonFox123 pc does everything a console does plus more I mean after all a PC is what created the games played ...🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️ I'm stuck playing rust and csgo rn but theres too many good indie titles on steam rn for me to want to play God of war it is a good game and so is the last of us.
I think this was ahead of it's time honestly. If this were to come back...it'd be HUGE if corrected and updated.
EDIT: So this is what it feels like to have over 10 likes on a comment 😁 thanks guys!👍
Rec room is basically ps4 home updated
No it wouldn't. Many publishers like EA, Bethesda, and Konami wouldn't do it. Marketing deals also stop it from happening

How to go to playstation home on ps3
Izzy C It sounds fun yeah, 1 thing I miss from my 360 days is avatars, I loved my avatar I had him exactly how I liked him decked out in clothes I'd earned in games! I never bought them some games u could earn avatar items I loved that so I had a Marcus Fenix doorag from Gears of War for e.g, I was sad avatars went away it was cool seeing friends avatars either awake standing next to the box for the game they were playing right now or fast asleep offline.
I do miss Home a little. Right now home would of been EPIC with this COVID situation we in! Home would of been BIG!
Ps home is back
iRealBurny PlayStation home is back
iRealBurny offline version works if u have a jail broken ps3 I’m on it rn
iRealBurny yeah it’s crazy man I was so happy
Mee Too :(
Jesus lol it seems like everyone who watched this video played home back in the day and yes I played it too. This truly brings me back to the good old days, I feel so old now I wish I could relive the entire decade from 2000-2010 again they're the best years of my life.
That girl tho lol: "No one wants to be running around as a default" 😂😂
Being there since it launched, I think I started "dafault". Everyone called them noobs. I wanted to find something more representative of the basic model that people would create to harass others. My other options were "blueshirts" and "base model", but I settled on Default because it sounded more demeaning (lol). And I spammed it everywhere in every conversation. Eventually it caught on. Standing on the bench talking to people in central plaza while "chain swing" played just down the way. Best social game I've ever played.
When i was bored of my games i go straight on playstation home the *nostalgia*
Lmao true
The first little big planet was also a good exploration cummunity game.
Foolz OMG same I love mod nation that was literally the best game ever!
Same!
This was literally my home. It was the main thing my PS3 was for. Made so many friends. Met so many of them in real life and still friends with them almost 10yrs later.
Thanks for this tribute to a big part of my life
cool!
Glad you had that good experience. Some of the people I met on Home..I actually met a couple of them from my hometown...We'll just say some things are best just kept online. LOL

I remember my older sister playing this. I was always watching her customize her avatar(?) and talking to random people. I miss the times when she would let me play and teach me how to use a controller (I’m more of a mobile/PC person).
I remember searching for jewelry underwater at the beach and finding tattered clothing in the process. I miss this game so much man. I'm homesick.
Same here and I found an eyepatch
I remember that. I spent way to many hours at that beach looking for good stuff
HOMEsick... ha, ha.
Irem Seaside of Memories, such an epic public space.
If you miss it try nebula realms on ps4 it's basically a new version of it with less places to go but its ight
I remember being friends with some dude who had a mansion and everything and got super excited (I was 12). He even gave me gold shorts. We became friends and even made some new friends from his group for a good few months, then outta nowhere he just went offline. Forever. During PS Homes final days I went to the clubhouse he owned that had all sorts of cool stuff just to reminisce before saying goodbye to it all.
Thank you dragonboy247.
No way I think I remember you now aha long time no talk how you been?? I hopped off after home was shutting down I must admit those days were fun
Interesting.

PSH is the most fun game I've ever played. It was so easy to meet new people and there was so much to do together, so many different spaces and games. It meant a lot to me because during that time of my life I was bullied a lot irl and had no friends, it made my day being able to come home and play with the friends I made on PSH and have so much fun together playing and doing all kinds of different things, it was a distraction from my real life that meant everything to me and always will. I would give anything to go back to that time, be able to log in and meet all the friends I made and just have fun together again
My Dad randomly brought home a PS3 one night in 2009 with Uncharted 2 and Little Big Planet. I ended up stumbling upon PS Home and was just blown away. I'd never really experienced something like PS Home before then outside of maybe Maple Story.

PS Home was absolutely incredible I feel bad for anyone who never got to play I have so many memories from it and made many friendships that I have sadly lost and I wonder what those people are doing now, Two things I do remember well are the robot fighting game you could play and the Doctor who outfits you could wear and the tardis you could go in
I used to always hang out in the graveyard
Heavy on the “I wonder what those people are doing now” I hope they’re doing alright in life
The best thing about PlayStation home was just exploration and just being THERE. I miss this and will always miss it.

Failure?? Lmao I was sad asf when they took it of the ps store
Go look up Avilife, it's suppose to be the new ps home buy they cancelled due to the Kickstarter failing.. Just look at itttt it's literal ps home creators... Please fund this game, get the Kickstarter going.... 💔

This documentary was kind of a waste, PS home was entertaining and was nowhere near as bad as things like micro transactions today and season pass

PlayStation Home is truly something that comes once in a lifetime experience. The social interaction in a whole virtual world. I never seen anything quite like it back then. I was probably one of the youngest kids on there. Talking to people that were all older than me, haha. The great memories, and meeting many people. I’ll never forget those times, the pure nostalgia.. Maybe one day there will be a resurrection for it.
Lol met an army chick on there and she would send me ps gifts cards haha hope she doing well
Whats her @. She sounds like mommy material
Dam she a sugar mommy?
Bro.....You got groomed
Wow I remember giving an idiot who thought I was a army chick free ps gift cards.
@@aardappel7356 Why would you give people free gift cards, that's kinda dumb bro 🤨
Ps home was literally my life for about 10 years , part of me died when thy closed it , still hear bowling alley"s music sometimes in my head ..
Or you can find the soundtrack for PS Home on RUclips or somewhere on the internet
Sodium Hub Scorpio's music still haunts my dreams

I hear the main hub music 😭it’s soo nostalgic
One day I got on my ps3 and felt like playing PsHome, just to figure out that it shutdown. I was heartbroken beyond belief
I’m so glad I got to experience this on my older brothers PlayStation back in 2009. I didn’t really meet any people but having a social space like that on console was an experience to be had.
I was one of those who booted up Home a few times then abandoned it. I wasn't a fan at all. But the preservationist in me is disappointing that it has gone forever.
Anyone remember watching Sony E3’s press conferences in the cinema?
That was always so fun... stuff like that really sucked you into this experience you couldn't get from any other console, really.
No but I remember watching that paramore music video from Twilight 😂
Wow you could do that? That would have been amazing to see.
@@BleedForTheWorld It really was... I miss it so much ;__;
I remember the t-shirt codes from E3 lol
I remember having a “rich” friend on here who would give me literally anything and would never speak lol
Was his username by any chance pppooopppooo or something?
I had a rich friend from Saudi Arabia he would buy me $50 psn cards. The catch is he would tell me what to wear, not in person lol in ps home

these videos you make focusing in on subjects that nobody else is talking about are so great. love the deep dives, the interviews. awesome work ryan
Loved goofing around Home, chatting and playing games with people. Also the themed holiday events were generally fun.

So this was pretty much a less toxic VR Chat right?
Except VR Chat isn’t toxic and is just a shit show, this had people fighting over internet gangs and people dry humping each other
milkytoad convo
milkytoad sounds like the internet
Hell no. Ps home was toxic as fuck. “He has no clothes! He’s poor! He’s trash” that’s the shit you would deal if you didn’t buy clothes to look “cool” it was hoes like that girl in the beginning who said “I played it everyday” ._.
Less toxic lmaoo
I had a GF every week on home, not even sure if they were all girls, great times though.
LMAO.
I was probably ur gf bro
if Discord existed/was popular during those days you could have found out ;)
K̶ylo̾w̾ hate to tell ya, but those were all fat balding 30 year old men named Jerry
A lot would strip and finger theirselves on video chat lol.
Immediately 1 minute into the video I got a rush of old memories of every single person I met on Home so long ago. So many friends lost to time, almost got me choked up.

I remember someone dressed as Pyramid Head. I had no clue what Silent Hill was, but thought the sword looked dope.
They really should take consideration of adding PlayStation home on PlayStation in 2021. This will make a big spike no doubt.
They renewed the license apparently
@@Rizzbulla Clearly there something happened with home
I was a beta tester of PlayStation home from the beginning. The beta testing window was by far the best part of PlayStation home. They were considering letting people watch any movie or view any photo while in the application. I brought up to the developers that copyright laws would be very hard to get through giving that situation, we found tons of glitches and everybody was on the walls. But it was cool having a smaller close-knit community of people. It was the most social I ever got online and everybody disbanded after the beta. Good times I wish I could show what really happened during those months
My buddy had a mansion and she hosted parties often. My poor apartment was weak. I didn't go there enough to enjoy it.
Lowkey miss this shit so much, I had so many friends I still wonder how they’re all doing. 🤣😭
I really loved going into the videogame worlds and being able to quite literally walk into the games I liked. It felt really special. Imagine if it hadn't failed, if it really had become what they were picturing at first. That would've been amazing

Nebula realms is rubbish it'll never replace psh ....

27:00 dancing around a bonfire, saying goodbye to everyone waiting for your creator to pull the plug, stirs up some kinda special feeling .....
I used to play this every single day for hours at a time. It became “home” away from home.
Home helped me get through a tough time in my life, took my mind off my reality, giving me some awesome memories and made some good friends. I was pretty sad when Sony closed it, in fact I stopped turning my ps on for months after. Didn’t feel the same.
Home was awesome! I miss it so feeling a little home sick.
Sony pay attention… people want this back. 💙
I still have PlayStation Home on my PS3 with saved screenshots. It's a shame they never put it on PS4
It’s a shame they never gave us a refund for what we brought.
K̶ylo̾w̾ fr tho
Me too mate... and i actually miss it still today... Out of sight but never out of the heart.

How i always ran around lol..
I was shocked at how many people were actually there instead of playing a game online. Plus I played street fighter in PS home😂
Thank you Mystic for the well done Documentary about the opening and closing of Playstation Home. I was an active user from 2013 - 2015 March 31st. I now currently use Second Life now but always missed playstation home. I have virtual T-shirts and mesh 3d design studio apartment that was created by other user's on Second Life. They are my proof memento's. I still have friends from Ps - Home who migrated with me to the platform aswell. Now, in 2023 a few months back a man has revived it. I didn't jump on it due to such a life(second life) job I have. But I might someday for a moment to have nostalgia. P.S. your cat while playing 'Chain Swang' was the perfect closing of the video
I have nothing but fond memories of this place during my teen years. I'm now 25 years old and long for ten years ago of going back and making new friends. A few of which I still know to this day.
RIP PS Home.
Siren Blood Curse minigame was awesome. I miss my club, my gangster character, the Italian guy (white tiger) who used to sit and look at the sea with me. My innocent years where I only played Uncharted 3, The Last of Us and this.
Alessandro Del Casale that was my favorite place to hang out
What was that mini game, I was really young when home was out and I would go there all the time and always chicken out, what was it about
YES NY NGGA
@@Viper-dz2kw You had to escape from a part of Siren Blood Curse Hospital with your friends!
I thought the Buzz room was the best, I spent hours in that space playing the game
I remember vaguely I had an apartment by the ocean. Cool stuff
Everyone did. That wad the default one. I had a treehouse one that I got for free which then became paid. And some snow map as well.
@@computethis7128 whattt they had a snow one im mad :( I only got to play it a handful of times
I had the batcave from playing Batman Arkham asylum
Best one was Rapture from Bioshock. That shit was spooky.
I use to play Home all the time. Was fun to just chill in a virtual hangout with your online buddies. I went to prison and did 8 years, so when I came home January (2022) I was very disappointed to see this is no longer a thing.

I miss home and now I miss uncharted 2 multiplayer since servers shut down last night. Long live ps3
Chris P. Bacon Did Sony shut down PS3 servers?
@@Kylow0 naughty dog for uncharted series and last of us for ps3
What about the remaster severs?
Michael The Sociopath remaster tlou still gonna be up. Uncharted doesnt have online mode in remaster.
Man, Uncharted 2 multiplayer was the shit.
I'm 53, always loved consoles since the early 90s. Recovering from a heart attack and decided to get the Ps3 out the cupboard. Ps home was a strange yet magical place.
I think at one point I definitely played and hung out with friends on home more than playing actual games. And sirens game lounge was amazing.
Not gonna lie, PSHome was so much better considering it was during PlayStation's peak. I would give anything just to go back.
You think the PS3 era was the peak of Playstation? I'd go for the PS2 or more likely the PS4. In terms of popularity at least.
@@FortisV PS2 I'd also agree with now that I think about it, but I pick PS3 over PS4 just due to the fact of there not being parties (more social interaction in games) and because free online play
Sneal I still get these feelings when ps home comes to mind. It was fun and overall life. 😥
As far as online goes ps3 was definitely the peak
neverwoner wtf are you smoking 😂
I actually met my girlfriend on PlayStation Home in 2010.
We're now married ❤️🏡
congrats man c:
Unbelievable
Nice!!!
Cap
beautiful, but howww.. i don't get it.
I appreciate you having looked into PS Home enough to make this video. I used to be on daily with friends playing the mini games and talking, planning what game to actually hop on and play. My friends and I loved the Siren world they had among others. We all created accounts for the different regions like Japan, China and the UK just cause each version had something different and unique to it. I still talk to a few of the people I met from home and as mentioned in the video, some have left or vanished and I have no idea where they are, but I think about them cause they were all fun and good company. It was a hub for gamers to meet gamers and build a stronger community.
PS Home was VRChat before VR and VRChat lol. I'm sure if Sony took Home seriously and tried to bring it back in modern times especially with VR (which I know would be a whole "issue" itself) it would still be profitable if that's what they go for not to mention them now branching into PC territory with Steam releases. I definitely would get back on Home if they brought it back and be back in VR if they made it that way. I have fond memories of it and never really had much of an issue with the Home Bodies (the ones who "lived" there) cause I was somewhat of a Home Body myself. I know they won't bring it back especially with Nebula Realms being a very poor "version" of a Home replacement, but, I'd like to dream.
Shout out to the loyal PS Home folks!
I have so many great memories of this game. Spending time playing games in the arcade, watching e3 at the theatre, hanging out with my friends at the halloween park. So good. Hoping of hoke with some new buddies to play multiplayer was so much fun.
Home was amazing. Such a shame it's gone. The bowling alley and the theatre were my go to hang out spots haha
The playground & trying to figure out the glitches
I liked being a blonde girl at x7 while taunting at the uglies who couldn't get in. LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO
Its back Sorta while not the same just seek out Destination Home :)
Because me and a close friend of mine that I’ve known for 20 years that I used to live with for a handful of years as well before I moved out onto my own own, me and him for at least a good 7 to 8 years at least, were bowlers, we probably still have it in us to bowl, like getting back out onto the lanes with the balls that we still have the bowl with, but me and him every now and then used to spend time going on the home and just going straight to the bowling alley and trying to perfect timing and the gauge in order to hit the comma pocket as they called it in bowling, and just enjoy bowling in the bowling alley, at least when I was visiting him at his parents house when he still lived there, and we’d hang out in his room for quite a while, just hoping that there was an open lane and me and him would set ourselves up, and just bowl game after game after game after game, for a while and just enjoy it.
I myself had a really nice apartment type place, and besides the items you could wear that you won through like the game trophies, I myself ended up buying personalized items overtime for my apartment I believe it was that I owned on there, but yeah, I ended up buying some of my own things as well too.
