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.

If you’re listening, please allow sub-accounts into Home! My 30 year old girlfriend is very unhappy.

warezIbanez | December 11th, 2008 at 1:43 pm
Oh, quick question; although I’m not sure if you’re into the technical details on this, Jack, but is the development team able to add in additional spaces in the World Map without having the client receive a software update? (aka Server-side updates via 3rd-party areas)

Please answer one way or the other!

40cal | December 11th, 2008 at 1:49 pm
@ Jack,
Just so you know I was in the closed beta, anyways I logged in about 30 minutes ago and re-downloaded my summer house and central plaza - the new look is great by the way- but I got booted out. Now when I log back in it gives me a “Connection to the server was lost” C-931.
Maybe you know what C-931 is.
Anyways welcome HOME everyone I hope it starts running smoother shortly. As soon as it dose dance party, Red Bull, and the Mall here I come.
35
Pirate-King-Jing | December 11th, 2008 at 1:50 pm
Well guys I found out the issue, just got off the phone with Sony, the servers are not up supposedly! Now, why get all this hype up now and not have the servers up? Just plain silly, or the lady lied to me…..
36
adamska2020 | December 11th, 2008 at 1:50 pm
Ok, people let’s not bust out the victory champagne just yet. I wonder if anybody in America can access this right now. Homeless another day it seems.

Stoffinator | December 11th, 2008 at 1:50 pm
Good luck signing into it. lol
38
Koroshiya | December 11th, 2008 at 1:51 pm
It’s a bit unstable at the moment. I got in right when it went live, but now I am trying to get back in and having a lot of problems. Hopefully you guys get this sorted out. I loved the new Central Plaza though, that little UFO game is fun.
39
Spartancloud | December 11th, 2008 at 1:51 pm
All i get is a C-931, and C-988 error, also i was in the original beta if that matters, but i still got the 4 in 1 update to version 1.03.0

chidesd | December 11th, 2008 at 1:52 pm
You would think someone on sony side would comment on the error message. expecially after saying home servers are up and functional?
42
Daver | December 11th, 2008 at 1:52 pm
thats cool that its available for everyone now, as i beta tester i just hope that home will continue to bring things like you said that will make us come back again and again
Congratulation on launching the first part of what will become huge and hopefully very successful as an interactive and virtual world
and thank you

adolson | December 11th, 2008 at 1:52 pm
Hi Jack,
No USB keyboard for me, thanks. I’ve chosen the Sony Wireless Keypad. It’s more convenient, as it clips right onto the controller!

nguoixulanh | December 11th, 2008 at 1:53 pm
Hi. Are anyone here vietnamese?
45
NathanJ | December 11th, 2008 at 1:53 pm
Absolutely incredible.
The new central plaza is gorgeous with people playing the new game in the pool.
The Uncharted bar Space is very cool. Got into the locked area. The Far Cry Space is boring.
Everyone is having a blast.
Well done Sony, you have the most amazing online service ever.

JordanBlack68 | December 11th, 2008 at 1:54 pm

jorellano | December 11th, 2008 at 1:56 pm
Very, very nice. I’m very, highly, incredibly excited about this development! It’s 4 minutes until 4 p.m., CST, and I can’t wait until I get to go home from work at 5 to update my PS3 and start the HOME experience. Thank you guys so much for all of your thousands of hours of hard work and effort. I really hope that we users will be able to submit any bugs we find/anything else we can suggest as a development. I can’t wait - this is going to be the slowest hour for me this year, I think…
