PlayStation Home Universal Game Launching Arrives
As well as the PSP's update today, Sony has also tweaked Home according to the US blog at least.

That's right, PlayStation Home v1.3 arrives today, Thursday, October 1st, and along with it comes:

- Universal Game Launching. Titles will be identified by separate icons that appear over your avatar’s head and will have varying degrees of additional multiplayer functionality built in. Simplified game launching will take you from Home to the start menu of your favourite games.

- In-Store Item Previewing - yes, look at stuff to buy.

- New Emotes and Actions. Flip a coin with your friends to decide whose apartment to retreat to, or play the old “pick a number between 1 and 100” game to decide who is hosting the next party in Central Plaza. You will also be able to pose your avatar in a variety of ways, adding significantly to your ability to express yourself in-world. New dances to hit the SingStar Rooms with.

- More Item Types. These include, for some reason, Shrink Cake that lets you shrink your avatar to a tiny size; a free camera that you can use to snap pictures from either a first t or third-person view.

- Bug fixes (aka 'improvements').
