PlayStation Home was an online service accessible through the PlayStation 3. It was a social platform in which you controlled a Digital Avatar and could interact with other people and places. The world was divided into several spaces, each with a different theme, based on genres, what you can do there, or which company was sponsoring it. There was a fair amount of customization to be had, from changing your avatar's clothes, to decorating your personal spaces.It started as a largely social platform with some advertising and light games. However, the games got more focus over time, and some pretty deep ones emerged as a result. It ran from its start in 2008 to its shutdown on March 31st, 2015. The final day was recorded by Giant Bomb. |

comment |
Big Fancy House: You can buy one of course, but it costs about the same price as a brand new video game if you want everything for it. There are a few milder versions of this trope that are cheaper, though they aren't nearly as cool as the expensive stuff. |

Temporary Online Content: Some spaces will be taken down for one reason or another, meaning that the items within can never be obtained again. Some items can only be obtained during limited-time events. If you don't get them then, you usually won't have another chance. |

Developers' Foresight: By exploiting glitches in some of the personal spaces, you can move furniture out to places that were never meant to be seen. In the default Harbor Studio, where a dock is visible in the distance, there's a plaque in the distance that reads "You really shouldn't be able to read this". |
