Sony’s Playstation Virtual World Shutting Down

As Gamespot.com reports:

Those hoping that Sony’s virtual world, PlayStation Home, might one day appear on PlayStation Vita or PlayStation 4 are in for some bad news. Not only will that never happen, but the PS3 version of the service will be shut down early next year in the United States,Canada, and Europe.

This news comes by way of posts from community managers in both North America and Europe, both of which attribute it to “a shifting landscape.” Sony will no longer publish new content for Home after November 12. Users will have until about a month later, on December 3, to download any content they might want. A complete shutdown of the service will then happen on March 31, 2015. Fans who stick with Home in the months leading up until then will receive some free, unspecified content.

Today’s news doesn’t come as a complete surprise, as Sony Computer Entertainment Japan announced a shut down of Home’s Asian services last month. Sony clarified with Game Informer at the time that Home in North America and Europe are handled separately, and would continue to operate in those regions despite SCEJ’s announcement.

PlayStation Home was first revealed at GDC in 2007. Pitched as a free, Second Life-style virtual world where you’d create a virtual version of yourself that could have an apartment, meet up with friends, socialize, and watch movies or play games, Home never met the full potential of what was originally outlined. Although it attracted millions of users following its launch in 2008, numerous overhauls–including a relaunch in 2011 and the addition of game-themed content–never turned Home into what Sony hoped it would become.

Notice the name, Furries of the Annexed Table. That is the Official Name of the comic book my furmeet is working on, Key Ray the driving force behind this informed us of a couple of things at last night’s meet. #1 Copyright, every character both art and words should be copyrighted, to protect ourselves and no work would be used unless it was copyrighted. #2 Our Villains was revealed, his man is Ulysses a man turned in to a gorilla, whose character has been described as Moriarty type, if you know Sherlock Holmes you know it was a good choice. Also we saw a rough art for is close associate ‘Damage’, pretty cool I say so myself. #3 Cover art concept art. We are getting to the point soon where everything is getting finalized.

More updates when they happen.

Furries of the Annexed Table Comic Book is basically conceived as the world had had it’s apocalypse, everyone is now a real anthro animal, and 8 of us step forward as heroes to write wrongs. I can’t say much more for now.
