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.
22 more minutes (AND COUNTING) before my PS3 is sold.

@Slick
Yeah. True. Communication is key. I’m trying to keep my head up though. I really wish they treated this blog properly. Their responses are sporadic at best. Totally absent for this one.

Home severs have erros right now try after an half an hour and it may work then stay on as long as you can so, you wont keep doing this
I AM HOMELESS!!!!
I WOULDN’T CALL HOME A COMPLETE DISASTER JUST YET, BUT SO FAR A SUPER POOR START. KINDA LIKE THE GIANTS LAST YEAR AND LOOK HOW THEY DID.
WELL I GUESS YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. HOME RESERVES 3GB FOR WHAT EXACTLY? (DON’T TELL ME IM BEING SARCASTICAL)
After a bit of a delay its going very well and we’re getting some excellent testing done of our infrastructure.
We are aware of some people reporting login and disconnection problems and these are being investigated now.
If you are having trouble, please keep trying, the numbers are still going up and this is a very useful test for us.
IM HOMELESS!!
LOL!
I guess I would spend my days trolling PS3 forums if all I had on my Xbox 360 was a retarded Nintendo Mii ripoff.
Wait…no I wouldn’t…
Every firmware update the Xbots fill the forums with their fake stories that accomplish nothing
Every major game release the XBots fill the forums with their fake stories of that game bricking their PS3 and accomplish nothing
And the thousands and thousands of Xbots filling PS3 forums absolutely terrified of Home are accomplishing nothing
CanadianWolf… are you officially communicating on behalf of Sony or what?
@Slick
Really? Sell your PS3? Without a “Joke” note on the side, you look like a real fool. The console itself is pretty dope, and as much as I understand your frustration, Home will be coming around extremely soon.
@CanadianWolf
I’m in Toronto, man. Please state your sources, though. Without a source, or at least a convincing argument, it’s just bunk.
I got the information from HomeBetaTrial(dot)com
I got in and I must only say…
HOME is AWSOME!!!
runs smoothly, top notch graphics!
fun mini games! I kick arse at bowling!
set up is easy!
Keep on making it better Sony! good work! :)
@Dig..
18 minutes and my PS3 will be traded in for a Xbox360
It’s more comedy than anything. After waiting 2 years, if Sony needs another day or two to get this together then fine.
I was in the closed beta so it’s really not a big deal to me. I’ve already seen it. It’s pretty cool.
Ah I see, TedtheDog is still making updates. It’s as official as it’s going to get. Seems like things are progressing! Thanks, CanadianWolf.
@Slick – I don’t care.
who needs you anyway slick
@Slick, servers are busy, theres a lot of users playing atm…You have to keep signing in and hope to get in, you might get lucky. Stop complaining.
Well, at least I’ll have Persona 4 tomorrow to keep me busy.
I am in!!
But hey, all you guys who are selling your PS3s, how much do you want for them? I have friends who are looking for a deal…seriously.
Evry1 needs to CHILL
I hope you do sell your ps3 to xbox 360 though cause you’ll just make a fool of yourself, cause you wont have any consoles. because guarantee it will break within a month or so.
These random people posting msgs saying “They’re IN!!” is pissing me off. I’ve been trying for ages now. Gosh… PS3 is so sold…
I am done with this conversation, home is up and running.
Haha, I actually hope to see some of you guys in Home. If you see me and recognize me, don’t let your social anxiety issues get in the way of saying ‘hello’. :)
Actually by the time I get in i’ll be drunk, so I might be retarded.
Microsoft has too much money anyways
finally was able to log into HOME, it’s great! :) …now…where is my PSN store update!!!
I am out now!! shoot!!

Servers were not ready…………
i went in and i was alone there was 1 or 2 other..
It Keeps saying “Request Timed Out” /HUBps3_SVML/Unity/start.jsp
Please Help me :/
Yeah… Most of the people honestly don’t know what “beta” means. It is not a final release so it’s not like it’s flawless. Trade in your PS3s no one cares about you guys anyways. I have been a big Sony fan since the first PS came out. F the XBOX and Its XBOTS! Anyways, for everyone else… chill…give it a few ours..play a game or two… because the more you try logging in the more you back Sony’s Techs up.
boo hoo
