Sony's PlayStation Home is on track to go from a closed to open beta before the year is up...

The forever delayed PlayStation Home package, which is touted to provide a Second Life style hub for the PSN community, is on the brink of merging from a closed to open beta stage of development according to Sony.

The Director of the PlayStation Home project, Jack Buser, stated in an IGN interview, "PlayStation Home is nearing the final stages of our closed beta. Last week we successfully moved to our 1.0 client, which places us on schedule for the launch of open beta this year."

Buser also noted, "We're excited about moving PlayStation Home into its open beta stage this year. Once we make the move to open beta, everyone will have access to PlayStation Home."

The service should arrive just in time for Christmas then. Here's hoping we'll be enjoying a Christmas dinner with PSN friends and family, pulling virtual crackers around the most synthetic Christmas tree you can imagine.

	By: Anonymous Added:Sun 27th Sep 2009 11:09, Post No: 755 but people have come to accept the rrod its been happening for years now unlike the yellow light of death thats not because of unreliable parts but due to a firmware update, is this an indication that sony had tried to overclock the ps3 and may have had a stable overclock but releasing a firmware update with the overclock included may have caused the trapped gas in the circuit boards.

A .5% deficiant rate is quite low and seems an acceptable rate for any product. It seems that if Sony can compensate these very few failures with replacement systems ect. then this would be a very small problem.
