PlayStation Home is open for business on December 11, tomorrow, worldwide. At last PS3 owners will be able to create a house, play Namco arcade games, and bask in corporate sponsored spaces. Any PlayStation Home user can get their own space too by purchasing Clubhouse space.
Clubhouses are private places for club members to gather. Up to 32 people can be in a clubhouse at one time and that includes the creator. Inside each clubhouse there is a bulletin board the leader and sub-leaders can use to post messages. Clubs and clubhouses are designed for users with like minds to meet up providing one of them has money. Sony explains clubhouse owners will need to “buy the entitlement to run the club.”
Since Sony didn’t mention a cash transaction clubhouse space could be sold for virtual money, but looking at the PlayStation home model don’t be surprised if it costs bucks, not necessarily big bucks, to build a clubhouse.
