"HOME" sealed it for me, anyone else

Im a huge XboxLive gamer. I almost dont play anything that isnt online. I had a PS3 when it launched and sold it shortly after. Why? because I wasnt impressed with what it currently offered in the ways of games and online play and interface. I knew when I sold it I would buy it again, possibly later in 07.
 
I saw the leak on IGN about the new HOME online interface. For the first time since XBL launched I was impressed by something not MS as far as online goes. I didnt think there was anyway another company was going to even pry one finger away from MS grip on online gaming. I might have been wrong.
 
Those who have seen know what Im talking about. The whole thing is quite impressive. Im not saying Im done with XBL, I have made too many good gaming friends with the same likes and gaming taste as me. However, my time spent there is sure to take a big hit. Im sure it will even make my choices harder as to which system to buy a particular game for.
 
Needless to say, Monday, I went out and bought another PS3. This time, if it sit there collecting dust for 6 months......so be it.
 
Anyone else impressed with this?

Home seems like a very creative way to chat with others in the online community. For me, it's going to be LittleBigWorld, especially if they have online play.

I already have a PS3 but it's sealed the deal for 2 friends of mine (one's a current XBL user).

Youth, I give you credit for this post.  Not because you are pro ps3 now, but the way that you said it all.  Nothing in the whole post sounded fanboyish or could create a problem or start flamming.  If you would have chose different words it would have caused a fight and thread to get shut down.  One of the better posts I have seen in awhile.

It will be free. However you will have to buy certain things to help decorate your place. Same with clothing and accessories.

Re: "HOME" sealed it for me, anyone else

Well I had bought one a week before they even officially announced Home but yeah it is a great addition.  It "sealed the deal" for at least one of my friends that has a 360.  He was debating on a Wii or a PS3 and of course now that I showed him Home, he is getting his PS3 this weekend.
