Singstar is finally coming to Playstation Home, with a Space that packs jukeboxes, quizzes and dance floors

Exactly what more could you want from a Home space? The answer is of course "nothing". Still, the trailer teases more to come.

Remember Xi? The alternative reality game that made Playstation Home a real living place to be

Yeah, it was awesome wasn't it? People always think we're being sarcastic when we talk about Home being awesome, but we think the developers and its audience are really starting to find their niche. There are a surprising number of people who spend a lot of time in Home and it's great to see Sony deliver..

SCEA's Katy Field has revealed that inFamous' demo became the first to ever reach 1,000,000 downloads

Hopefully everyone that downloaded the demo ended up buying the game. Still, a successful number for the Sucker Punch team that, at the very least, showcases a lot of interest in the game. In fact, evidently such was the interest that a Playstation Home space is headed this way. Presumably the new..

Playstation Home has gained 7 million users to date

To be honest we think that's a rather decent number. Joystiq disagree. They report that with over 21 million PS3s in the wilderness, adoption rate for home is probably less than 33%. It's certainly a valid point but not necessarily one that we think matters. Seeing as Home is making a rather decent amount of money, and admittedly in recent months..

Beware your eyes valued reader

Beware your eyes indeed. For the frightening Playstation Home event involving humans and hamsters dancing for ghetto supremacy has been immortalized in the chastised YouTube video we've embedded above. Reader press play at your own peril.

Awww heck

We're so darn tempted by this it hurts. A Playstation Home update will allow you to purchase the Ghostbusters Firehouse and make it your own personal space.

SOCOM: Confrontation will also be coming to Home, allowing you to devise..

The Everbody's Golf Home space has been a major hit in Japan

And, as of tomorrow, it will be available to Europeans.

You can check some screens of the new stuff over at the..

For those of you interested in owning some new real estate in Playstation Home, you'll want to take a look at Visari's Throne Room from Killzone 2

Check out the trailer..

Thank you SCEE community manager "Ted The Dog"

You've finally admitted what we've been thinking. The European Playstation Home is way, way, way behind other regions. And that means there's less for us Europeans to do, less for us to see and less reason for us to visit. All in all - sort it out. Which Ted The Dog fully intends to do:"[This involves getting] up to date on some of the older..
