Halloween Comes To PlayStation Home

Hi guys, time for a PlayStation Home update!

First up, you’re all cordially invited to PS Home’s very own Halloween party! Taking place from 6-8pm (GMT) on 31st October 2009 within the Burn Zombie Burn space, all appropriately dressed attendees will get a (trick or) treat upon arrival. There are five exclusive new costumes available in Threads especially for this event – including a werewolf, Frankenstein, a witch, a ghost and his and her skeleton suits. Check out the screenshots of these delightful outfits below:

If you’re wearing one the above costumes when you enter the space you’ll net yourself a very special (ghoulish) Reward. If you’re not, just pull on the costumes when you’re in the space and jump on the enormous red button to receive your prize. ;)

And if that wasn’t enough, we’re running Home’s first official storyboard competition alongside the event. Using the Home camera (available through the Menu Pad) we’re asking you to supply five images with captions and upload them to our Flickr group. The wittiest five storyboards will go on display in Home Square and then you will decide who wins! The lucky winner will receive a brand spanking new PSPgo :)

Full entry details can be found here.

Oh, and be sure to check out the commerce point in the Burn Zombie Burn space, something very special may be lurking in there….

Not only that, we also have the Tekken 6 space launching this week. Perfect for you PS Home brawlers, be sure to check this out when Home re-opens tomorrow – screenshots in the interim are below:

Also, the Uncharted 2 space has received a touch of maintenance, so all of you that were having problems accessing the Fortunate Thieves and Torch Race mini-games should now be just fine.

Finally, keep your eyes on the EU blog for details of a very special, SCEE-exclusive event coming your way soon. I won’t say any more however let me leave you with the screenshots below… ;)
