I can't say I'll miss it. It just never really had a point, did it? It was just a place to be harassed by strangers and spend real money on virtual clothes and spaces. I understand why Sony tried it, but it just never had an appeal to me. Read more

I tried it like 3 times and each time I though I'd get the point of it. I never did Read more
