Home Asks You To Say Cheese

Sony have announced that a new version of Home (version 1.3) will be launching this autumn. The update has been called a “serious upgrade” and will add a number of new features to the lackluster service.

The biggest thing this patch will add is universal game launching. That’s right, the much promised reason that Home was meant to exist will finally arrive in a couple of months.

Another kinda cool, but ultimately pointless, new feature is the camera. Hold onto your wallets, this camera will be free and will allow you to take photos within the world and save them to your PS3′s hard drive. Didn’t you always want to relive that time you and a bunch of randoms started dancing? No? Ok then.

Speaking of dance moves, the update will now add a bunch of new emotes and avatar actions.

Ultimately, this could really help the user base of the service expand. However, the camera and new emotes aren’t really that important.
