PlayStation Home is an avatar based service bringing gamers together to communicate in an online world. Like all online-based worlds, people get into all kinds of strange relationships. There have even been relationships resulting in “marriage” in many MMORPGs. Now people are looking for a date via PlayStation Home.
Apparently two D.C. area “college educated” men posted an personal ad on craigslist, where they wanted to “initially meet” women on PlayStation Home. I assume afterward they would attempt to get the women to come back to their personal ‘Home Space’. Check out the entire craiglist posting below:
We are 2 college educated men (23 and 25) living in the DC area. We both have good jobs (lobbyist, engineer). We are both tall (6’1”) and athletic. We are drug and disease free. Looking for potentially [long-term relationship] with college educated women around our same age, to meet initially via Playstation Home.

Wow. To each his own I guess. Home IS good for that though. I have Home friends that I don’t even play video games with…
Hey, ow, what’s wrong with being under 5’5?
@ Odium_Generis
Likewise, I don’t really play many multiplayer games, though.
interesting…
Obese girls (try drinking water for a change)
That’s great.
Yeah, lol, try drinkning water that’s hilarious If these guys are as strapping as they calim to be they shouldn’t have any trouble meeting women the Good old fashioned way.
@DG
EXACTLY! If all of this was true, why would you be posting on craigslist and HOME? You would have girls lined up to date you.
@Megs
Nothing at all!
AHahahahahaaa! That’s funny.
How can you not love girls under 5’5″?!?!!
speechless
so you can basically put anything up on craigslist.
@wtGp I guess. First time I’ve seen something like this from craigslist.
Me and my wife met because of an MMORPG named Ran Online in the Philippines. We didn’t met in-game. I went to one of their events and she was hosting and modeling. I find it awkward since I just got out from a bad relationship and was playing this MMO to avoid girls. lol.
@wtGp
i take it youve never been on craigslist… you should read some of the personal adds… they get a lot worse and crazy than this
hmmmm…I am not too sure how to respond to this.
