Going live two years later: honey, we're HOME!!!

PlayStation Home - Image 1That's right folks! Open beta for PlayStation Home has finally launched! Some of you have been waiting for this moment for two years now, and I'm sure you guys have already known what's been going on for the past eight- or nine-frakkin-hours. (Man, it's been stressful, tell me about it!)

Various users (across the globe, mind you) in our comments section and in the forums are now reporting that Home has finally gone live on PSN for their region. Check your PSN, it might be there already! As for us, it's already available too, we can confirm it ourselves!

Want something official? Here's Home community manager, TedTheDog:

**Edit 9pm**

As you can all now see, its up and running. Sorry about the delays this evening but we're there now and the team are keen to see how everything works with so many people.


So get on to it! Chances are, by the time you do get to log on... well, let's just hope for the best. We wouldn't want the servers crashing on us, now would we? Here's a toast the entire Home team for finally pulling this off.

Now! Anyone for that epic dance off to celebrate this momentous occasion?

Same Problem here.

Error C-931. I'm from Germany BTW.



Probably the servers are overloaded, like 10 Million PSN users trying to connect at the same time.



Closed beta worked fine for me. Too bad it's Open now. :P

# wtfDiscoStew592 2008-12-11 12:21
i was getting that error (C-991 or 993) for a while but then I went back and tried it just now and it took forever to sign in, and when it eventually stopped, it gave me this error that was really long and had something to do connecting to something with a really long name.

# Damn...Shatterdome 2008-12-11 12:50
I knew I should have downloaded those while they were free...



My friend downloaded them on her account while she when she was playing here....wonder if they show up on mine as well...



Oh well, was a nice house, but is just a house after all....mainly I wanted the decorations though :(

# Settle people...Shatterdome 2008-12-11 12:57
It's highly obvious what the problem is.....waaaay too many people trying to access the server at once. The only thing Sony can do is bring more servers online, and that can take awhile.



Anyone trying to get into one of the numerous Betas that have been first come first serve knows that this happens to those servers as well.....it's just the nature of the internet.



Sony really should have sent out more invites to the closed beta first obviously, to test and see how many servers they needed. As it stands you will just have to be patient....

# F*CK this *****, good job testing your servers sony!DiscoStew592 2008-12-11 12:58
this error to be exact:

/HUBPS3_SVML/unity/start.jsp?

And sometimes it has a different ending, such as /login.jsp? or something of the sort
