Yeah, that's exactly how it'll work.

You'll get the basics for free. The extras you'll pay for. So you might get an apartment/dorm room for free, and be able to buy a mansion.

I really think it's a great idea. They just need to incorporate things for people to do, so it has replay factor.

I know they're going to have arcade games and pooltables and such, so that should help.

So I could buy a pool table for my place, and send you a message saying to come over and play some pool. That'd be cool. It'd be super cool if while you were there, I could play my music off my console, and you'd hear it in my place.

It'd really bring VGF Poker Nights to a new level!

All this thing needs is some beer, and it'd be a hit.

What I want to know is how the whole home system will work. Do you have to go to your virtual house to play a game or can you just pop the disc in and play? Will this be a newer better alternative to the cross media bar or can you access home on the cross media bar?

Home is like a game that you can go on, then choose to play a game, or you can just not choose to "play" Home and just pop in the game you want to play.

It's a world you don't automatically get sent into when you turn on the system.
