At the Tokyo Game Show today, a mainly positive keynote by Sony was marred with the announcement that the innovative PlayStation Home would be pushed back from its release date in October until spring 2008.
Hirai apologized for the delay and added that the reason was the makers of Home needed more time to "further develop the user interface."
The delay does not come as a full shock however because recently a random anonymous report surfaced from a Home beta tester that revealed some key components were behind schedule.
PlayStation Home is thought to be Sony's answer to the very popular Microsoft Xbox Live service. PlayStation Home would add community features such as content sharing and game trophies to the already available PlayStation Network and PlayStation Stores.
