Playstation Home and Rock Band

[TreoRock_]

Back in March 7th, 2007 I read about Playstation Home for the PSN
http://ps3.ign.com/articles/770/770998p1.html

and I thought of it as one of the coolest thing available for the PS3. Now, that I'm a PS3 owner I was wondering what happened to it? and checking on google I read that there is a beta that can be accessed with invitations. Anybody has invitations?
Then, my next idea was how cool it would be if the Rock Band PS3 community could be integrated with Playstation Home. That would really rock...!

By the way my PSN id is TreoRock

Home is going to be opening up for full beta testing in the next few weeks. Late November early December. Keep checking.

I'm eagerly awaiting this as well!

I don't want to start a console war, I just want to add my personal opinion.

Home>Live

Or that is the way it seems anyways, if home truly delivers with what it says. Live won't stand a chance. Sure you can chat with buddies and such, but this is a world like the sims but it's online, and a LOT of features are in it. I am simply amazed and will definitely get a PS3 when this thing launches full (if it's as good as it's said).

Can someone fully explain to me what home is? I only recently hooked up my ps3 online (for cod) and i just wanna know what this is... and what its for.

It's going to be virtual online comunity, where you can create your avatar in the likeness of yourself, chat with people, play games, share music or videos, show of your video game achievements, you can even create your on house an decorate it in your own style invite and people over... plus much more. If you look in the PS store you might still find a video demostration of Home.

I did too. But oh well, I guess I can wait until it comes out next year.

Is that what HMX said? Where did you get that from?

No they haven't said anything but i HIGHLY doubt they will incorporate Home in any way.. most HMX employes own a X360 so whats the point anyway.

It's not like they are making this game for themselves???? If there is a feature that Rock Band can take advantage of I don't see why it cannot be included. Similar to what game developers do with the Wii.

I don't necessarily know if it's that. No one will probably start to incorporate things with Home until it is fully launched and people know how to use it. Things like this probably won't take effect until some time next year.

Because, 360 gets achievements, so we get Home Integration...

or we unleash the 10 year old Canadians.
