If you haven't played Sodium 2 in Home just yet, you're missing out. It's a lot of fun. If you have been playing, we've got good news.
Check out the PlayStation Blog for information concerning the Payback update, which boasts "new rewards, rivalries and explosive launch boosts."
You can now unlock up to 28 unique rewards by reaching new experience levels in the game, and there's also a new Rivals system, which builds upon the invigorating multiplayer experience: go head-to-head against any other player in the scene, along with the last 20 players you challenged in multiplayer mode. Nah, they don't have to be on your friends list. Lastly, there's the new Launch Boost system; if you time things just right, you'll get an explosive boost off the starting grid.
I'm sorry, but was anyone else reminded of Super Mario Kart on the SNES when seeing that boost bonus? I remember how long I had to practice to get that just right…it was a lot harder than I thought it would be. But I used Koopa so I didn't always need that head-start. 😉

Wow, this is like Wipeout. I can't believe I've never tried it.
I will also try the update soon… it should be an interesting expansion on this game type. Impressed with the general improvement in PlayStation Home thus far…

Do anyone happen to know what track is played in the background here? I want to hear the rest of it!
