I don’t care for x7. Don’t like the rehab remark, that little snot.

It’s a nice enough space, well done, but the atmosphere is not for me.

As it does have good deals and early bird sales, I will visit for that. Maybe also just to figure out what the space is supposed to be about. I like observing what people do but nothing happens in there. Perhaps that is a good thing.

“Lindsay Lohan being made over by a pissed off drag queen”. That’s not a term you hear much and it’s one I will attempt to avoid. I do find it at least a little disturbing that this mentallity exist here in home, however, if people were so offended, don’t go. I went once to the front and having zero access, could only watch the profane speech bubbles full of hate speech pop up all over the place. I was so repulsed at that and the poparazzi corner that I swore never to return and I haven’t. As consumers, we , in our going or not, show what we like. We let Sony and the deveolpers know what is acceptable, and like real life, there is always something icky under a rock. In Home that’s x7. Please somebody,if I ever show up in a diamond bling suit inside of x7, go to your wardrobe and put your pistol in your hand item and shoot me.

I didn’t have a Plus account, but was lucky enough to get into the private Beta, and I’m a nice guy, honest! lol It was great to see the new stuff early, but at the same you weren’t supposed to talk about it, so they kind of cancelled each other out.

Great article. The division thing on Home is kind of a pet peeve of mine. It’s why we play video games to escape all that sh*t! x7 seems to me like buying a first class airline ticket for a 45 minute flight, not worth it.

Loved the article. If they gave me a one day free pass I would go but it would be the only time. Don’t feel like I should pay just to receive items earlier than everyone else

Nice article, I’m pretty sure most of the plus accounts were also randomly selected to try the new Home beta, unless they just purposely excluded me, lol, which is possible but I had a plus account then and never got the invite. I think you make a very good point that people confuse exclusivity with elitism. I have access to the space but not the VIP room, and I’m not rich either nor do i pretend to be, but I know i’ve spent a lot more than what it would cost to get into the VIP area, I just personally don’t care for any of the items that would let me in, I bought the Chilli red pilot jacket that lets me into the sodium VIP room which is pretty much empty these days, but i bought it for access to the 45 levels of Salt Shooter. So the content was worth it not the exclusivity of a now abandoned VIP room. Great job and thanks for sharing your views.

Agreed! I haven’t even gone to the lobby area of this place myself, I am not the least bit interested in it. Good article, but even if they gave me a free days pass I wouldn’t go.
