Sony updated PlayStation Home in the spring of this year, and gave its virtual world multiplayer support and better graphics (http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/20/sony-rolling-out-playstation-home-1-5-update-with-real-time-mult/). Evidently that update wasn't quite what Sony wanted, so the company will roll out a complete redesign of the community this autumn to make it easier for folks to connect with desired content. The revamped Home lets users find games by exploring several themed districts (Action, Adventure, Sportswalk and Pier Park) with their digital doppelgängers. Sony's saying the changes will make PlayStation Home itself a game, so maybe it's time for Second Life to start shaking in its boots. Denizens of Sony's digital world can get more details in the PR below.http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/24/sony-redesigns-playstation-home-makes-it-the-game-outside-the-g/
