Sony is creating a virtual world for PlayStation 3 gamers. Called “Home,” it’s similar to Second Life: You can create and customize your avatar, chat via voice and do a whole bunch of other virtual world stuff.

There’s probably a lot more that will be available in Home than you can figure out by watching this clip but one thing’s for sure: The graphics are terrific.

Too slick and corporate, or a quantum leap in the world of virtual worlds? This one will be interesting to watch.

Meanwhile, USA Today asks, “Is this the age of the online avatar?” Ya think?
