Home

As i was researching for Second Life, i found a similar concept being done by Sony for the PlayStation 3. It is called "Home", and it features better graphics than Second Life. Home is also more secure because it is closely guarded by Sony. These are the main difference between the two. Second Life offers more freedom, and user powers with OK graphics. Here is link explaining all the differences between the two virtual worlds----HowStuffWorks

I think I would choose Second Life only because it can be at my computer, and the fact that it has been around longer. I also don't have a PS3, and the PlayStation Portable (PSP) version of Home called "Room" has been halted in development. They may not consider doing it for the PSP. I know iPhone apps are being made for Second Life. I will never have an iPhone until Verizon makes something like it or Apple finally realizes that most people are on Verizon. Yeck, Verizon is the only service you can really get that is good quality in ND. It looks like Second Life is more portable than Home.
Overall, Home will never be able to replace Second Life just for the simple fact that Second Life is through the computer and not a game console. I know for sure most people have computers in this day and age.
