In even more Sony news from the Tokyo Games Show, it was revealed that the company’s virtual lifestyle application for the PS3 has been delayed till Spring 2008.
No reason was given for the delay to PlayStation Home, but it appears to be issues with usability and quality, as the title was not ready for primetime. It was previously scheduled for release earlier this year.
However, company chief Kaz Hirari did reveal details about the PS3’s Remote Play function as a consolation. Users will soon be able to power on or off their systems with the PSP from anywhere in the world. Additionally, multiple PSPs will be able to connect to a single PS3. He used a golf game as an example, saying that friends can connect as spectators while you’re playing the game, among other things. These features will soon be available as a firmware update.

I do. The Sims is offline and does not run on the PS3, Home has the abilities to watch movies and play games with others. Overall its more interactive. And if by the Sims, you mean the original Sims, the graphics on this are far superior.
