Sony: Don’t Compare PS3 Home To Second Life

Sony talks PS3 Home vs. Second LifeNobody’s gotten a statement from Sony yet about Atari’s secret project which appears to be direct competition to PS3 Home.But Steve Boxer recently spoke with Sony’s Phil Harrison about PS3 Home and asked about the basic similarities with Second Life. Phil Harrison wasn’t having any of it.“I think you’re way oversimplifying by suggesting Second Life and Home are the same. In Home, you get a character and a 3D world, and that’s where the similarity ends. Second Life does some brilliant things but with Home, we’re providing a service. Therefore, the tone of voice is what will differentiate it – Home is about entertainment, it has a game focus, and it’s about sharing with a like-minded community,” he explained.
