[PS3 News]

PlayStation Home Community Manager Locust_Star has announced today news of the PlayStation Home version 1.41 update alongside several additions to the PS Home Mall and Novus Prime.

To quote: Early this morning, PlayStation Home received yet another update to its core client.

Available now, the 1.41 update includes many improvements that were requested by our community after the massive 1.4 release last month. Patch notes can be found HERE along with instructions on How to Update to Version 1.41.

http://novusprime.com/, the recently released space combat game exclusive to PlayStation Home, also receives an update this week. Pilots who have earned the rank of Airman or Captain will receive pilot jacket rewards upon reporting for duty on Thursday, December 16th. Earth Fleet is also proud to announce the new Mini-Mech companion (there's no longer any need to walk alone!).

http://www.konami.com/ is throwing their first event this weekend, and you are invited! Check out the Konami Penthouse in PlayStation Home this weekend for a Soccer-themed party. Wear your Konami gear and earn more points. The more Konami Soccer items you wear, the more points you get!

This Thursday, December 16th, the PlayStation Home Mall will receive an enormous update. Just in time for the peak of the holiday season, our friends over at http://www.doublesixgames.com/ will release some hilarious Burn Zombie Burn costumes.

Speaking of the holiday items, Codename releases some festive tops for the guys and the gals as well as a White Christmas mini-game. And check out this ridiculously awesome "Santa on a Reindeer" costume from Codeglue!

Also available this week from the PlayStation Home Mall: New Ghostbusters and "Mad Scientist" furniture items (these can be found in the LOOT store), a musical "Ballerina Box" for your personal spaces, and nDreams' epic "Bling Reaper" costume (also pictured below).

Those of you who pick up the full PlayStation Network game, http://www.aboutablob.com/, when it releases next year, will be able to unlock special rewards in PlayStation Home by successfully completing select levels in the game. See the below for a sneak peek of some of these exclusive rewards.

The PlayStation Home Community Theater receives another update this week, with episode 7 of http://www.gamer-indepth.com/replay-with-doc/, now playing in-world (in this episode Doc interviews War Princess from the Tester 2). Also airing this week in the PlayStation Home Theater is a full episode of Buso Renkin, the popular anime show from Viz Media.

Be sure to log in to PlayStation Home this week to watch these awesome videos and pick up rewards (including the new Tester 2 "Game Over" shirt, available from the Tester 2 Theater, and the PlayStation Home 2-Year Anniversary shirt, available in the Community Theater).

On that note, we want to invite all of you out to a live event in the PlayStation Home Theater with the finalists from http://www.thetester.com on Monday, December 20th between the hours of 6:00pm and 8:00pm PST (9:00pm and 11:00pm EST). Chat with the finalists of the latest season of The Tester and hear about their experiences firsthand, only at this exclusive PlayStation Home event.

Finally, I want to remind you all that the holiday celebrations continue in the mega-popular Winter Wonderland space, now accessible via PlayStation Home's Navigator. Be sure to visit the Winter Wonderland daily between now and December 25th for new games, quests, and rewards. See you in Home!

I WANT to like PlayStation Home, but Sony really hasn't put anything compelling into their SecondLife clone.. seems like maybe next generation something like this could be awesome.
