Sony’s Home Virtual World Unlikely

When Sony announced that they were going to launch a virtual world for their PlayStation 3 console, the press and the blogs were abuzz with the news of the world that crossed from gaming platform to the web and back again. Now Wired brings news that the development has been so slow and problematic that the launch date has been delayed indefinitely:

The PlayStation 3 maker announced today that its long-promised virtual world, which will let owners of the console create their own apartments in cyberspace, will be bumped back yet again. The current closed beta test will be extended through this summer. An open beta will begin in the fall. As for the official release date? Sony hasn’t said,.
