Welcome to Home, where play-people meet up

by Nick Doerr { May 5th 2007 at 3:15PM }

We're pretty excited about PlayStation Home, sure. In fact, boredom set in so heavily on this day that we stumbled across this spoof on the PlayStation Home trailer available on the PS Store. Complete with that female British accent, everything's the same except the words you hear. What do you hear instead? Exactly what that immature part of your mind was thinking the first time you watched the trailer. Check it out -- it's humor, but the jabs at Sony at the end kind of disrupt the tone the previous two minutes set up. They aren't untrue accusations, but they seem out of place. Let us know if you agree.

This looks to be work of a Xbox 360 fanboy.

thatpspkid @ May 5th 2007 6:06PM

It was funny, until the fanboyisim started showing. So sad seeing people be so demolished knowing Home will kick ass.

Service_Games @ May 5th 2007 6:17PM

I literally laughed out loud. That is awesome!

massive_98 @ May 5th 2007 6:17PM

I bet this was made by a PS3 owner. 360 owners aren't aware of the delays associated with the PS3.

I wonder how much they had to pay that hooker to put on a british accent?

My time on the beta has been nothing but fun.
F.U.N. Nothing better than bumping into an old friend and destroying him at pool.
and when it's released we'll be able to jump into a game of Killzone to settle the score. Pure Gold.

I'm so jealous of you. I can't wait to decorate an apartment in home. That clip where the chair drops. Yay!Yay!Yay!

Naaiif @ May 5th 2007 9:02PM

Not that funny tbh, on a funny rating that was a 4/10.

This post on a funny rating was also 4/10.

PS overheat?

Yeah, don't let your PS3 overheat, because it will KILL your 360. ;)

Lp47 @ May 5th 2007 11:35PM

Thatpspkid is totally right. It was probabley some 360 fanboy trying to mess around with the home vid. their all jealous

Next-Gen-Gamer @ May 6th 2007 12:07AM

Nice to see people with the inability to go through the whole video without feeling the need to use the term "360". Its just a joke, guys. No mention of any console-specific fanboyism.

steve Johnson @ May 6th 2007 1:04AM

Hey, satire doesn't bother me if it's funny, and this mockumentary simply wasn't funny. At all.

Nothing to see here folks....move along!

Well, that was a waste of my time.

Real Gambler @ May 6th 2007 8:23AM

Cmon guys, you have to admit it's funny. I'm a PS3 owner and I loved it. And it's why I like PS3fanboy so much, they know we can laugh at those things.

Here's another video which is not as funny, but it's Pro-PS3. Watch it if you want to cool off. Not bad music. Would have love to get the same voice over instead though.

Enjoy

This video was actually pretty good, to bad they had to ruin it at the end.

I especially liked "This man chose to have headphones for ears"

Thomas @ May 6th 2007 9:33AM

When I get my apartment... you guys are welcome to stop by... ps3: Thomaticus

jorma @ May 7th 2007 1:37AM

Even this spoof made me more psyched to get Home... Great stuff!

massive_98 @ May 6th 2007 2:18PM

When I first saw the real video it made me so happy. Up until that point the PS3 got such bad press. Makes me glad I ditched the Xbox brand.

Extinction @ May 6th 2007 2:46PM

"Cmon guys, you have to admit it's funny."

No it wasn't. It was retarded and fanatic.

ill trooper @ May 6th 2007 6:26PM

I thought it was hilarious! "If you believe in magic, you can fly and look at the tops of indoor trees... Or maybe you can have a tantrum... Or... start dancing again!"

Excellent voice-over quality, too. The humor might be a little subtle for many... It wasn't ruined at the end... It's too close to the truth, that might be why it causes a little sting - but as PS3 owners, we sort of have to take it to the chin a little bit right now - Honestly, it's not really up to snuff with the 360 for gaming and online interaction yet, is it? And releases of the hardware and games are running behind the original schedule. And it's more expensive! I have hope and faith the PS3 will get there, but there's no denying the facts.

My favorite part:

"If you close your eyes, you can imagine the most ridiculous things... Look at that crazy fish and his friends look for peanuts!"
