PlayStation Home "Not a Priority Right Now"
1UP RSS feed — ... The PlayStation 3 Home has been a bit of a mystery; anecdotally most gamers seem lukewarm on the application, while Sony has called it profitable via microtransactions and therefore a success. Edge Online reports that Sony isn't currently looking to expand Home's reach. Pete Edwards, director of Home, said during last night's London Games Conference, "It's been a long road. We've proved there is a market out there and we've got a lot of people that spend a lot of time in [Home]. It's not a priority right now but there is a business model there." ...

Kotaku — Speaking at the London Games Conference yesterday, Sony's director of PlayStation Home in Europe said the virtual world accrues users who spend money and stick around for long stretches, but Home is nonetheless "not a priority right now." "It's been a long road," Pete Edwards said, according to Edge Online. " We've proved there is a market out there and we've got a lot of people that spend a lot of time in [Home]. It's not a priority right now but there is a business model there." Edge Online noted that Edwards himself said European users spent an average of 56 minutes in Home per session. So it's not like Sony's shelving or shutting ...

Sony: Home "Still a Priority"
Kombo.com — ... , right?). Recently, PlayStation Home Director Peter Edwards told Edge that "It's been a long road," and that "[w]e've proved there is a market out there and we've got a lot of people that spend a lot of time in [Home]. It's not a priority right now but there is a business model there." This got some fans of the service a little riled up. But apparently, that's not what Edwards was trying to say; according to Sony, the quote was taken out of context and was misrepresented. "Allow me to put your minds at ease about this recent press," said one manager of Home on the ...
