PlayStation Home: Out Of This World

 

PlayStation Home will briefly be offline from 8.00 a.m. on Wednesday 5th September for routine. Here’s what to expect after the update…

The Space Station needs a crew, and you've been selected to take part in an all new out-of-this-world experience. Your Space Station adventure will have you defending your new home against incoming asteroids in the fully interactive Station Defence turret centre. On top of defending the station your tasks will also include lowering and raising the external shutters so you don't get blinded by the sun and you'll even have to evacuate the garbage you produce in to the vacuum of space.

 

Also included with the Space Station is a variety of furniture, science theme props, a custom space helmet for him or her and even a UFO companion to follow you all around PlayStation Home!

 

Your shuttle is cleared for arrival so head over to the Estates Shop in the Shopping centre today!

This week also sees the latest Wrangler content to be released in PlayStation Home, with ten new items in the Wrangler store. A new range of tops, jeans, and jackets will be available, including the “Hunting Jacket” for gentlemen.

It’s been a busy six weeks for nDreams. With the release of Blueprint:Home at the beginning of July there has since been a constant release of extra style packs to help you create and customise your apartment however you wish. This week is no different with the release of the Desert 1995 Environment and the Apocalypse Style Pack.

 

StreetMoves_Vol3_256x368_1.pngStreetMoves_Vol3_256x368_2.png

 

The Street Moves collection has been making a splash with eight characters dancing in Home. This week sees five new characters released ready to be collected; Cheerleader Chic, Dance King, DJ Spanner, DJ Wrench and Pom-Pom Princess. Check out their unique moves below.

 

 

Some of you with eagle eyes have been asking if the furniture in the Street Moves videos will make their way into Home. Head's up, next week nDreams are pleased to bring you one of these pieces; The Shimmer Sphere. This disco ball and dance floor active item has a stunning lighting effect which will be perfect for a party room in your Blueprint:Home apartment. You can pick up all of these fantastic items in the nDreams shop or any commerce point within Aurora. Stay tuned for more details.

 

AvalonKeep_FancyFurniturePack_09052012_684x384.jpg

 

The kingdom of Avalon is really showing its diversity in the furniture department and this week will bring you the finely crafted wares from one of the local artisans. He has created 7 unique furniture items with a distinctive style and flare that goes well in any medieval setting. 

 

The Fancy Furniture Pack can be found in the Furniture store under the Avalon Keep tile. Keep up to date with all things Avalon and Heavy Water: http://www.blog.heavyh2o.net/ and you can always follow Heavy Water on Twitter: @heavyh2o.

Check out this video of the latest apartment from Lockwood, Dream Island...

 

 

The Dream Island is available from the store in three different value packs, as an apartment owner or a guest check out the Exclusive Store on the Island for the latest designer swimwear. Or pick up other designer beachwear from the Lockwood store!

 

LKWD_season_sale_050912_1280x720.jpg

 

Reinvigorate your wardrobe and your apartment with some end of season bargains from Lockwood. More than 50 items are discounted for a limited period including companions, hairstyles, clothing and furniture packs. Pick up the Dream Yacht for £6.29 / €7.99, the incredibly popular Beauty hairstyle for £0.40 / €0.49 or a Stitchkin Unicorn or Pegasus for £0.79 / €0.99!

 

Save 50% on many items, with other great savings on many more. Get a bargain before the sale ends!

 

When the pinafore dress was first released way back in June last year, it was with very little fanfare and yet that Little Red Dress garnered a lot of interest. Many ladies commented that it would be lovely to have more colours, and it may have taken a while, but some new choices are now available, along with revitalised biker and aviator jackets.

Gift Machine colour variations are set to follow at a later date, and if there are any other items you’d like to see in more colours, be sure to let Lockwood know!

 

That’s all for now. See you in PlayStation Home!

Another nice big update! Space station looks interesting and I'm going to what's on sale from Lockwood. Just don't understand why they're releasing Hurdles if they haven't sorted the Shotput.

Re: PlayStatio​n Home Scheduled Maintenanc​e 5th September 2012

A decent update, will look forward to checking out the Space apartment, should be an interesting one. I only want to play the game in there really so if it's good enough, might be worth a purchase.

I'd like the Dream Island but gonna wait a few days, see how things pan out in that area before I add funds for that.

The Granzella stuff looks good but it's not appealing to me personally.

The Konami horse heads I thought were due last week but my interest in them isn't very high, again, I'll wait to see them before I decide if I'd like to get one. That said, they have top quality items so most likely I'll end up buying them on impulse!

Street Moves, they're ok but they don't do anything for me. Joe is gonna do the proper dances at an nDreams party so be sure to remind him of that.

Avalon Keep is too cartoony to fit anywhere outside the space it's intended for, so gonna give that one a miss for the timebeing.

Reading over all that it sounds like I'm complaining :smileytongue: Decent update and hopefully a few extra things thrown in that we don't know about.

Re: PlayStatio​n Home Scheduled Maintenanc​e 5th September 2012

Aye, agree with most of that, loon.... but it's definitely been a bit of a content-fest, these past couple of weeks.

I remember when an update was to release 5 new t-shirts differing only in colour, fix a typo or two, and install new bugs. I mean, fix 'em. Heh.

Rockin' - keep it up, guys!

I hope the Hurdles game comes with rewards and actually works, unlike the hammer one :Lol: was there meant to be rewards?

 

The space station looks pretty cool :smileysurprised: but I won't be spending any money on Home for months as I fork out for all the sexy new games that are coming out instead. But still a good update.

 

Granzella need to pick better music for their videos though. Damn they make everything look boring with that.

Ah the good old days when updates were every 2 weeks on a Thursday. I still get haunted by the 20 t-shirt pack when looking for stuff in storage.

 

At least these days when they add 5 t-shirts they generally tend to be pretty decent looking. Like those Wrangler clothes being added, they look decent enough.
