      Can't wait for this! :D









      A massive world built into the PlayStation Network, Home is Sony Computer Entertainment's virtual world for PlayStation gamers. With an avatar uniquely customized according to each user's preference, users can explore the 3D community that is Home -- a sleek, modern environment featuring spacious common areas, custom spaces dedicated to specific games, and personal apartments. Everything can be customized to your liking with items you collect or purchase.

      Not only is Home your home online with PlayStation 3, Home is also a vast network of communication for PlayStation users. Browse the Hall of Fame for trophies players have collected in various videogames, or just hang out in a virtual outdoor lobby to talk with text and voice. Other features in Home include a theater where the Home world also users can watch videos from one users' collection together, a series of mini-games that players can play, and much more as Home evolves.

      General Features

      •Interact, communicate, join online games, shop, share private content and even build and show off your own personal spaces to others in realtime.

      •Each user is assigned an apartment in Home where they can invite others to join them as they show off their own style in an area they can personalize themselves with furniture, art and other items -- even a different view from their windows.

      •Show your personal video, pictures and other digital media content found on your PS3 hard drives in your apartment.

      •Sharing continues in the Hall of Fame, where users can display new 3D trophies that will be unlocked through in-game milestones for the games they own as well viewing the trophies of other users across the PlayStation Network and for other games they’ve yet to purchase.

      Waste of time and effort, or innovative step forward for the better console? ;)

      Very true! They've suggested it with update 2.5, but we're past that if I'm not mistaken?

      I can't wait. It will be quite good. Playstation is going it's own way while X-Box today has gone the way of the Wii so to speak, with the NXE or New X-Box Experience as it had during the download!

      It should be out sometime before christmas. Though, i don't know if i can trust it, as there have been so much delays. As long as it doesn't lag and it's really responsive, i think that it will be a great huge leap for the PS3. I've already got my renovation for my apartment in mind. RED.

      Good videos, though keep in mind they were made in March, so Home would be even better now.

      100,000 invites are to be sent out in the next 2 hours, this will be followed by the same amount next week. These invites are to stress test the Sony 'HOME' servers,

      I imagine that the open beta will follow shortly after that which mean we can all be HOME for Christmas

      You think it'll get sent directly to your PSN or your e-mail you registered on it?

      I've had codes before for exclusive demos and they've come through on my PSN email address.

      No invite for me.

      There was apparently a meeting today in the Home closed beta with some of the developers, they took questions from other beta users and let out a few interesting comments
      Some people are doubting the information so its considered a rumour for now, so here goes

      The release date for home is Dec. 15th or the 30th…they said it is definite. There will be random weather, there will be a money system. you earn money from collecting ps3 game trophies. and you will get money for the trophies you already have. Right now there is a censor on swearing, but will be taken off in the full beta. The open beta will also be 18+ only.

      Dont shoot the messenger if it a pack of lies but the source of the info is reliable

      No sh*t?

      I agree with the 18+ thing.

      You will have to be that age to come in to my vice den apartment anyway.

      Hopefully it's all happening. :D Let's hope that late means better in terms of how they've made it!

      Agreed on the 18+ thing though. If they're pushing it further than just a chat thing then that makes sense.

      "Show me the way to go Homeâ„¢"

      Think I'll trademark that before Sony (or the Yanks) do.

      I would be interested to know how you qualified DM, I believe its not just a lottery and relates to specific time spent on PSN

      This will also give you time before release to review HOME and get a posting on your site ahead of the competition, I look forward to reading all about it
