Home right now is a "working beta" just like Gmail. Meaning this IS Home as it will be released with the open beta (coming soon). It will be constantly updated on a regular basis unlike the Firmwars updates which are every couple of months and soon will be quarterly. 100k invites were sent Friday and another 200k will go out this week.

I want my invite damn it.....

beta is not that great

The rumors are that there will be random weather, and a money system. You earn money from collecting trophies and it will be retroactive (thank God). Right now there is a censor on cursing, but will be taken off in the full beta (good shit, LOL). Hopefully this isnt true for the punks like Leezy, but open beta may be 18+ only initially.

Since Good may not have enough crow on his plate for Thanksgiving, take this with a grain of salt until it's confirmed.


Now what is a definite is that the Open Beta will drop by the end of the year, I'm hearing either December 15th or 30th.

The mall opens up today, so you guys can go shopping now, LOL.

They're gonna be free for you guys to grab so I'd fill those bags up if I were you. Once the open beta drops they're gonna cost but will still be "cheap". But there's going to be some free content on the regular.

A pretty detailed..accurate Home review.

~Goodz~

I still didn't get my hand written, velvet wrapped, model delivered invite, which shows Sony is a little sloppy because I'm one of the best gamers in the world.

It's a little rough around the edges now, it's gonna be updated and tweaked with constantly. Think about PSN, the XMB and brower last year and look how far it's come to today, Home is gonna be very hot soon enough. How's the clubhouse looking?

I've just added furniture to it...and sent out invites.

Not much you can do without the add on limitations.

~Goodz~

For those of you with Home..there's freebies in the mall from clothing, to real estate, to furniture. IT's only rfor a limited time though. When it goes live...I think it will cost.

What did I tell you about thinking on your own???

That’s immaterial, if you wanna know what's what and who's who, you come see Tony.
