At Sony's PlayStation Day today in London, Kaz Hirai announced that gamers will have to wait until the end of the year until a publicly released version of the title will be made available. With delays plaguing the online social networking application, it seems as though it may finally be coming to an end. Though we've heard these words before, "expect it now/here/there/future," it creates a sense of disbelief that we can expect it at the end of the year as well.
With LittleBigPlanet scheduled for release in October though, it wouldn't be all too shocking (probably would) to see Home release shortly thereafter. This would make a lot of sense for Sony, considering LBP is expected to have a lot of Home integration. Kaz Hirai went on record stating that Home will not open up until he is happy with it.
Doubtful to hear anything else about Home today in London, we'll keep you updated if something does come up.

And the bad news just keeps rolling in. What about in game XMB that subject seems to have gone quiet.
psn id: gingo.... really hope this is mind blowingly aamazing when it comes out or a lot of people will be bitterly disappointed and the psn could be forever doomed if this fails
now that was quite a surprise, not!!! hope they allow PS3's in the nursing home because it looks like that's where i'll be trying out HOME.
Waiting sucks but once it comes out I think it will be awesome
That is always the story with Sony, push back the date.....push back the date,,,,,, push back the date,,,,, wash, rinse, repeat......
oh well... i guess i'll just be a little more busy with reisistance 2 than i thought i would.
This is turning to be a BAD Playstation day!! I hope to hear somne good news like ingame messages!
At least give us a beta or SOMETHING. At the very least, they should just keep us posted somehow, instead of telling us one thing to get our hopes up, and then not sticking to their word leaving us high and dry!
I don't mind the waiting as long as it's bug free. What i do mind is the fact that they say they are gonna release something and than delay it. Just learn not to announce a release date untill you are sure you're gonna make it.
Figures. I kinda enjoy how sony shoots themselves in the foot sometimes. LIke, "lets take HOME and Killzone 2 and really build up the hype"...then when it comes to release times they just let go to heck. Killing the momentum they had for the titles and causing greif to the community they built via promos etc
I love my PS and I want to see it be the charter topper I know it can be but silly things like this can really hurt perception. Much like the GTA PSN issues. Which may not be sony's fault per say, but media is media and they can skew it any way they want to.
I'll get a 360 soon......
Lol, I'm gonna go buy a Xbox 360 in the meantime until Sony figures out what the heck they're doing.
@ MrAce: Nooo!!! You summoned the beast known as in-game XMB. Now that's all we'll here for the next 8 weeks.
---
@ RotaryMatt: I can only hope you spend so much time with your 360 that you forget this site exists. I guess it is fun to pay $50 a year just for the service and then pay for the content. Have fun with all the racist 8-year-olds on Halo!
---
@HazdoTT: They are putting in in-game XMB, so just wait. I don't know when, but I can't see them waiting until the end of the year for it.

I was looking forward to Home but I'd much rather have a working product.
Just f'n cancel it and shut up about it.
they said ingame xmb is comming around summer. I've said it before and I'll say it again the XMB has nothing to do with Home, they CAN release one without the other. That said I fully expected this because Home just isnt ready there are numerous problems and the developers are faar too slow and complacent, that they even tried to hint months ago that it might be ready soon fills my mind with confusion and pain
**SHOCK**
Sony has delayed something...again. Oh well at least we know the PS4 will have an excellent start, what with HOME, Killzone 2, FF 13, & XMB all finally ready for launch. Or will we stilll be waiting. Why do I keep buying their crap. (Stomps on Sony Ericsson Phone)
Just give us access to the beta!!!!
im wit u zombieking just give us a god dam beta for us to see wut its like at the moment.
Yep. Next we'll hear it's delayed till Mid 09, then end of 09, then it'll be available at launch for the next Playstation platform. Awesome, Sony.
I don't expect Home at all...
*
What I do expect is delays for SOCOM and Little Big Planet to be announced any minute now. It's complete RIDICULOUS that we don't have in-game XMB by now. There's NO EXCUSE for that. I have a launch PS3 and I've been waiting through the entire life span of this unfinished machine, playing 8 hour games. F'n ridiculous.
This doesn't suprise me at all. I see home coming out March '09. Right around the time of God of War 3.
Not really sure that Home public is really delayed.. talking to our marketing which handles sony stuff.. early January and they already knew back then that it would not be released before Q4.08 as the earliest date..
Think of all the games coming out bfor tho and theres still gta iv wish is just sick, haze, the darkness, star wars, R:FOM 2 going to be the year of the ps3.
just give a big price cut to make up for it and that should help people forget about home ,in game xmb for a while as well as shift some more ps3 :)
home is a hook to get people to buy the ps3, it will, never, be released. sorry.
sony like their delays dont they?
Bummer I was looking forward to that. I agree with alot of what folks are saying about sony letting us down with release dates. I guess we shall wait and see
Sony is lossing my trust!!!!!
come on and get it released !!! this started like way back wen ps3 was created this idea did it not ???
yeah this isnt funny anymore I feel as though the hype for this game is gonna die out eventually, people will return to their old lives. when/if it does eventually comes out it'll hardly be noticed.
damn this $ucks, sony can stick this up there aS$ already
We just need in game XMB damnit!!! I don't care about some freakin interactive place to meet people. Thats what real life places like concerts, bars, clubs, ect... are for, MEETING PEOPLE!!!! Just give us in game XMB so we can compete with x-box. I have both and I am regreting buying as many games for my ps3 instead of my xbox because of this.
Wait a second....they had ALREADY announced that Home would be at the end of this year, rather than summer... So what's the news?
I still dont' understand why people continue to call Home a game. ITS NOT! Do you consider Facebook or Myspace or 1up.com a game? Then why for F*** sake would you consider Home one. It's a social networking program. I'm really getting sick of all the cry baby's on here. I don't like delays more then anyone else but there is nothign we can do about it.
with each delay i become less and less excited
i can wait as long as i have GTA4 that will keep me busy.Sony make HOME as perfect as u can
This should not come as a great surprise, and actually may not be a bad thing.
im going back to 360 sony should of names this console hypestation 3 cause for the last year and a half thats all ive been hearing.hey FATSO ive been doing the same thing buying ps3 games instead of 360 games im going to start trading my ps3 games for 360, face it 360 gets the better version of cross platform titles all the time, so long sony. i still wish them the best of luck i just dont have time for promises.. 360 will give me games that i want now.
just cancle home you sould not have even mentioned it until it was comming out fricken relase a beta cas for goodness sake we know its gonna be flawed thats why we call it a beta omg dont you realise that your not helping us any by doing this omg
sony you have just killed the ps3 you know how many people are gonna go out and buy a 360 now TAKE THAT GUY OUT OF CHARGE IF YOU DONT WANT TO START SOMTHIGN RELLY RELLLLLLLY BAD FOR PS3
its just that talk of in game XMB and Home gets out to early and we get excited about it. Sony is trying to make people get interested in PS3 but then are stupid by delaying it, and telling us about it and making us wait a long time till we recieve it. possible its for Sony to make us stick with the PS3 and wait. Sure im excited for both XMB and Home, but for me i dont mind waiting, im happy with wut the PS3 has offered soo far. even tho both would be a kick A$s edition
