PlayStation Home: PS3 FW 2.5, Home 1.0 hinted; closed beta extended |
Ó
The reply you see below is what TedTheDog, Home Manager, gave to someone who was asking about certain freezing problems they encountered in the beta. TedTheDog explained that the PS3-freezing bug would be dealt with by the time the next firmware update rolls out. "2.5 is what we're waiting for," he says, "and 'October' is what I've heard." Check out the screencap of the Home Manager's post:
The interesting bit, of course, is when he mentions "Home 1.0." Could this be the public release? Well, whatever the case may be, it looks like PlayStation Home is rapidly moving towards a full release soon.
Thanks to Darkshneider and JollyRoger for the tip!
Meanwhile, in other (more official) matters, PS Home director Jack Buser announced today that the closed beta period has extended. Meaning, if you haven't received an invite, you might want to check your inbox again soon - they're sending out more to those who've applied!

Time to check my Inbox (again).
Finally!!! I got an invite to the closed beta. However, if an open beta follows the closed beta there is no way in hell of an October release. So I finally get in right at the end. Gee, that's friggen great! Better then a kick in the ass I guess :)
The release IS the Open Beta
I also got the beta invite today and to be honest I dont think Home is going to open to the public in October. I dont think its ready from what I have seen today.
whether it releases in Oct. or not, that does happen to fall in the "Fall" release when it was said to have been release anyways
The closed beta isn't the latest build, they have more done then what their showing you
Are they sending the invites to your email or to the actual xmb message center. I always check both daily anyways but I don't know if i'm just wasting time.
I Just checked with one of my dads friends who work in Sony and hes a good friend of mine as well....and he confirmed that all 40gb PS3 Units Will be Getting MINOR Ps2 Backward Compatibility in the 2.50 PS3 System Update Late in October . So For now we all need to think what the MINOR Means.. NOW ALL THE 40GB PS3 OWNERS CELEBRATE!! =) Ill Comment later with More News
they send the invite to w/e email u have registed
Won't that just be for singstar? A friend of my dad's uncle's cousin's dog walker works for Sony and that's the memo that I found when I sneaked into his house and looked on his computer said.
Stop sneaking into my house!
Didn't singstar already get patched with this though?
PS2 Compatibilty Confirmed in 2.50 or 2.52 PS3 Update in October ....There are Just the Big and Important Games will be able to be BC on the PS3 with 2.50/2.52 Update and In the Future Updates more PS2 games will be added.
not be B.C With Even 59% of Ps2 games with 2.50/.52 Sorry i just got da news .....=( It wont even play the games properly with no lag ...but will be playable ..dunno what that means.
***David Reeves has reportedly told a german website that the old SingStar games will run via software emulation which is coming in a future firmware update. These games will run without the need of a PS3 singstar and Sony are also considering what other titles are worthy of selective updates for backwards compatibility***
I really don't think Sony would release a laggy emulator!
If they release a software emulator for a game series to run on PC then hackers will reverse engineer the system to access the emulator core and make it run other ps2 games. I guarantee it. This is probably already been thought of though and Sony most likely doesn't consider loss of ps2 game sales to affect their bottom line for the ps3. Standy by though if this happens because it's basically Sony giving away the source to their emulator engine. I don't understand how it could be laggy though. Look at the PSone emulator for PSP. It runs just about every game without any problems or speed issues. The ps3 is miles ahead of ps2 in ratio to the psp being only slightly ahead technology wise against the ps1. It resembles the capabilities of the ps2 but has much less texture capacity since the cpu is scaled down in power.
thats it i aint bothered anymore home has been delayed so many times yet were all still willing to believe its comeing this year i dought it so for now i aint intrested gona focus on better stuff comeing are way i.e cod5,r2 and socom.
