Sony Ending PlayStation Home Services In Japan And Asia

August 30, 2013

Sony has announced today that it's PS3 avatar-based social community PlayStation Home, will cease in September in Japan, and March 2014 in Asian territories.

The announcement appears to be for SCEJA countries only, as the press release specifies that the service will continue normally in North America and Europe.

Would you miss PlayStation Home if it were gone? And did you ever really use it in the first place?
