Leaked video's of Home show new info

Silver Mirror | March 01, 2008 | News | Playstation 3 
With rumours about the Home Beta buzzing around the Internet like flies three new video's have surfaced highlighting some new features of Home. Some of this stuff we have seen before but there is quite a few new innovations present as well, including details of the in game PSP, how you purchase new clothes and how you create a game session. Click on the source to view them.
The first video is an introduction showing off a few new places in Home as well as the In-Home game Chess. The first place the player visits is a clothing store called "Threads" where players can purchase clothing items for their character. While the current clothes in the store are free, having a "checkout" and "confirm transaction" screen makes us believe some clothes will eventually cost money.

Moving on to part 2. The next video shows Home's use of the in-game PSP. Using the functionality of the Home PSP, players will be able to access such things as:

- Community (Message of the Day, News, Handy Links, etc)
- Help (First time in Home, Character Customization, Moving to new locations, Your Home Space, and other step-by-step guides)
- Communication (phone a friend, accept call, reject call, etc)
- Game Launching (Create a game, Join a game, View Player List, Cancel game)
- Locations (My Home Space, Home Square, Game Space, Home Theatre, Market Place, Owned Spaces)
- Settings (Themes (skins), Pop-Up Colour, sound, chat window, controls, communication)
- Personal (Go to Wardrobe, Redecorate Home Space, My Inventory, My Purchases, My Profile)

The last video in the series shows off a few new things including the new bubble machine and Home Theatre. The player begins showing how to access items and interact with them in the world. In this case the bubble machine.

    Could they have chosen any worse music to accompany these videos?
