Sony Planning Major PlayStation Home Update

 

At a special GDC roundtable attended by IndustryGamers, Sony announced an important update for its PlayStation Home virtual world, which will bring the core client software to version 1.5 and introduce real-time multiplayer support for games, as well as improved physics and better graphics overall.

 

Developer Lockwood was on-hand at the event to showcase one of the first titles, Sodium2, to take advantage of the new PlayStation Home features.

 

"Since its launch two years ago, PlayStation Home has evolved into a dynamic social game platform, and with the update to version 1.5, we're giving developers the tools to create even more compelling high quality game experiences," said Jack Buser, director of PlayStation Home, Sony Computer Entertainment America. "Lockwood is one of the first to push the capabilities of this new technology with Sodium2-Project Velocity, and the result is incredible."

 

Sony said the update and Sodium2 will arrive this spring, but did not provide an exact date. The company said the update "further demonstrates [Home's] commitment to brig quality game experience to users by adding several new development tools that will vastly improve the capabilities of the platform."

Sodium 2 Debuted At GDC With Trailer

 

Playstation Home v1.5 was debuted today at GDC. Coming to Playstation Home is a truckload of tools to create better games and interaction in Playstation Home. A visual testament of the new features of Playstation Home is here with the Sodium 2 trailer. Completely free to play within Playstation Home, this sounds like a winner.

‘Live Video’ Streaming Coming to Playstation Home

In a small blurb posted on the playstation.blog Jeff Rubenstein wrote about a great new feature possibly coming to Playstation Home in the near future.  That feature would be ‘Live Video Streams’.

 

On the ‘Around the Web: What we read” post he added, “Programming note: we’ve been experimenting with livestreaming video directly into PlayStation Home. Soon we’re going to need your help stress testing the stream, so keep an eye out here and on Twitter for how you can participate.”

 

Of course the most practical application for this would be great streams from E3, GDC and other events the general public have a hard time getting into. E3 has already been a feature inside home before (pictured above) where they displayed videoclips, exclusive footage and  had giveaways. Though LIVE footage would be a great incentive for PS3 users to log into Playstation Home and catch the event.

 

When the ‘testing’ phase is scheduled to start is still unknown at this time.

Toks neblogas kampelis nolifer'iam, bet šiaip kartais ir man įdomu užsukt pasižiurėt kas gero atsiradę, jei būtų chebros ir Lietuvos, tai gal kaip sakai ir įdomu koki bolinga sumest, o pilnus filmus čia eina kažin žiurėt ?

Home: Huge v1.5 upgrade released

Sony has released a significant update for Home on PS3 which it promised would bring enhanced tech for "richer, more sophisticated and better connected gameplay experiences".

 

Hitting version 1.5, Home promises now to offer improved physics, animation, graphics and 'real-time multiplayer'.

 

Here's the official rundown of what that means, followed by a trailer for the new six-player Audi sledge racing game you'll find in the Audi space, and another for a top-down shooter game you get with the new Blaster's Paradise (head through the source link for more details on the random furniture and outfits you won't buy).

 

- Real-time Multiplayer: Improved networking allows fast-action online multiplayer games to be created, such as first-person shooters and online racing games.

- Physics: Developers now have improved access to the core elements of the Havok physics engine, resulting in more sophisticated and realistic gameplay.

- Animation & Graphics: More control over animation and graphic settings means developers can create better looking games than ever before.
