PlayStation Forums: Home Beta to be public soon from Playstation Official Magazine, scans - Image 1We got news that will definitely make your mouths water. Over at the PlayStation Forums, patches 4 socom 3 posted three scans of the May issue of PlayStation Official Magazine regarding the developments of Home Beta.

It seems that the rumor that Home Beta might be ending in May might actually hold true. From the scans, we encountered a very interesting line from the senior director of the PlayStation Network, Susan Panico. She said, "We'll be opening up the Home Beta to the public very soon and hope to see you there."

While this line is certainly encouraging, it should be noted that the one quote is all there is to the announcement. Currently, there's no schedule for the processing of the beta and there's also no information as to which countries this announcement applies to. In the meantime, feel free to head to the source link below to look at scans from the magazine.

First I will not believe something in the PS Forums... you never see that forum these months in the home section? I will never go again until home come out.

Second, don't start with may 15 because the final date for the beta was pushed back so many times and if you are a beta tester you already knows that

Third, soon isn't a date either lol, I still think will come out in June.

"Third, soon isn't a date either lol, I still think will come out in June."

First off, it said "end of May" not May 15th. Second, wouldn't "end of May" that coincide with a June release you predict? Moron. Please think about what you are saying before criticizing others.

because the page of the beta testers says that the beta ends now in may 15 and I wasn't criticizing here QJ... just the forum of PS because all I said it wasn't in this article. Is just that I'm tired of the PS forums and their rumors and before insult me ask first...

if it was for the forums, we had HOME in january, february, march, april, may and the list continues... maybe we will have home in may maybe not, but the fact is that I will not listen to the forums and yes the beta tester page says may 15 but it was pushed so many times that I think that will be again to june now.

 » Wow Ignorance FTL

Someone_PR, do you even know what the article is about? *Sigh* If you read the post from the forums, you would see that the post is nothing more than just a confirmation post in which "Susan Panico" a known Sony employee (Specifically job title is Senior Director of the Playstation Store) stated that Home will be out very soon. The post is by no means a "Prediction Thread" that said though they are prediction on the thread, however that doesn't take away from the true intent of the post, in which was to display the "OFFICIAL" statement that Susan Panico released in the May issue of Playstation Mag.

As far as our prediction, based on Susan Panico delivering such news, combined with her blog post earlier this week about the Revamping of the Store, some are "Hoping" (Keyword) that April 17th could be the launch day, but its just a guess that we all are hoping for.

What the ***** is happening to you? yeah I read it and she only said soon. A Sony representative said that home will come out soon... wow!! I didn't heard that before? maybe will come out in the famous spring, maybe in may 15, maybe in june... hell maybe april 17 when the store comes out again but the soon word doesn't mean nothing to me and isn't a date like I said.. and a may issue says soon? hell, that doesn't give me too much hope either.

So stop to try to be a man in the internet and call people ignorant when you don't know what I'm talking too. BTW... what else she said in the mag beside we already know? anyway if you can sleep better calling me ignorant then ok... you win... now go to sleep and say your players little one. You can say your points of view and me too without insulting anybody...

I care not what I hear in terms of when its coming out, we waited so long now whats the point anymore? It comes when it comes, I aint even used it yet and the noveltys worn off.

They said that the open beta would be coming "soon" 6 months ago. Their meaning of "soon" means "later" to us or "much later".

I hope we'll see open beta before the end of the closed beta! :D But anyway, it's looking nice, I hope I'll be able to see my trophy room soon! :D
