Hi PLAYSTATION 3 community,
I am so very happy to announce that PlayStation Home has now officially entered into Open Beta. Restart your PLAYSTATION 3, and you will see the PlayStation Home icon under the PlayStation Network column of the XMB. Click on the icon, and you are in.
Getting to this point has required a tremendous amount of participation, input, care, and passion from the thousands of beta testers who helped make PlayStation Home what it is today. So to all of you that have tested, from all of us on the PlayStation Home team here at Sony: “Thank You!”
For those of you that are new to PlayStation Home, be sure to plug in a USB keyboard (or pair your Bluetooth headset) and start meeting your fellow PS3 owners. And remember, even with all the spaces, rewards, items, and activities available today, what you see now is just the beginning. Home will grow, change, and evolve very quickly – and it is all based on your feedback.
This is your community, and we are listening.

EPIC FAIL!!!!
Sony get your heads out of your A$$ and FIX this! This is unbelievable. So far you have failed at everything that is PS3.
1. no 1080i/p upscaling (who wants to play games in 480p?)
2. LAIR – Epic Fail
3. LBP – no 1080i/p upscaling
4. Home Open Beta – No one can log in
5. You ignore your customers, see 4 above…how about acknowledging the problem and letting us know what is going on??
6. did I mention no 1080i/p upscaling? and don’t blame the developers, this is as much your problem is it is theirs
7. lost touch with your customers who have stood by you, by constantly ignoring them
8. No Netflix streaming
9. PS3 browser sucks big time
10. lack of codec support for various media formats (stop trying to force feed your proprietary crap to us)
11. NO 1080i/p upscaling!
12. NO NETFLIX streaming!
13. trying to tell us that rumble is/was a 2nd generation feature, then adding it back and making us buy a new controller!
Get a clue and start working on fixing these issues and provide some valuable feedback to your community!
im playin fable 2 tell i can get in
They added the slap huh? I saw some guys doing the Night at the Roxbury thing in the beta and the girl wanted to slap them.
Is there still the regular update coming?
Got on and connected at about 5:50 EST. I began my quest to enter HOME at about 5:00. It’s awesome!

What are you smoking? Get your head out of your @$$. Some people these days…
I keep getting an error since I updated it, my connection times out.
you its called stage closed and oppen at sometimes it will be closed like an at some time it will be open
I luv home so fat
im………
ok, obviously you guys at sony really don’t care because i’ve been trying to get into home since 2:00 EST, and still have nothing at 8. you haven’t even updated the store. not for nothing, but this is really starting to get ridiculous. hello, is there anybody home?
Assuming Jeff and fellow Sony staff are monitoring the board, so let me just say that this month’s NPD numbers dropped by jaws.
For the PS3 to sell less this November than it did this time last year without the epic titles under its belt. Well, you get how I feel.
I think it’s time for Sony to take a big hit and drop the price if they want to compete in any way in this generation.
The competition (excluding Nintendo) doubled the sales for the PS3.
I hope Sony is really working on a way to keep relevant this generation in sales, because you sure are doing a great job with your exclusive titles in 2009. I mean that btw. :)
social this place is packed
Hey majortom,
who needs netflix on the ps3?
only a super nerd who’s affraid to get out of the basement!!!
youtube – watch?v=l6fRvGtQ_g0
i am now at my home
I’m halfway in
Like i mentioned on this blog i think yesterday. Sony needed to make sure that they have enough ports open. Sony knows exactly how many PS3 are online so why can’t we all have a great experience when login on to such a service. Ridiculous.
home is awsome i hope it will work on friday and so on have patience yall were crying when it was delayed today but it now live but now your crying cause it wont start
well that sound weird post #480!!!
@479
That’s what he said.
i think i just froze on singing in
hey im having problems with my home connecting. It says Read Error for start.jsp and i had another try then read error for the eula.jsp
maybe it could be because i live in Australia
lol
please guys, just a post to let me know you’re trying. you guys haven’t updated us at all on the situation.
17 is the limit!!! i hope the real home is for at least 13 and above, i really want to get in HOME
no because it the sever are overheating and not eveyone can get on at the same time
Been trying for over an hour.. Never got past the frickin’ EULA crap…
EPIC
FAIL
To all the peeps who are complaining,
Please STUFF IT. Nobody wants to hear a whiny baby. So please stick a pacifier in it!!!!
the nxe is a lighter program and it was jacked up for a couple days along with red ringing and locking people out. this isn’t even the first day of launch, specially seeing as it is a beta. this is exactly what beta is for. they are testing what the system can do. what, are all of you 15? sometimes i wish they put your name and address up when you make a post, then people wouldn’t shoot their mouths off so much. also, stop with the threats of buying a 360, they dont care. they have your money already. they don’t refund, the store does.
hahaha home is awsome
OMG i hope kids are not able to get in home….we don’t need another COD4!!!
Laozer, another Aussie here.. See prev comment..
It’s not working for me. Getting some silly timeout error.
no they are playing with my emotions i just got into my house and i lost connection to server
im stuck on “signing in”
where is todays store update?? are they too busy trying to fix home?
