    Damn it... I'm out of the country until Saturday. Hope I can still apply by then.

    Doesn't sound too late, so maybe they'll still give you look. Of course, they may just accept the first X amount of people that meet their criteria, and who knows how long that will take.

    I think SCEJ is already doing something similar, and as the link says, SCEE is planning something as well. Not sure how it would work, but maybe if SCEA doesn't accept you, SCEE or SCEJ might. Might have to use Home in their region hubs though.

    Playstation Network activity?

    Ugh, haven't been playing online for the past month so I haven't even signed on to the PS Network.

    I have played a lot online before that so I hope it's not just "recent activity."

    I definitely want in.

    You haven't logged in at all? I haven't played online in a while either, but I have logged in a lot for other "network activity." For my sake, I'm hoping they're taking more into account than simply playing online (trophy collection, buying/downloading content, synced up usernames on playstation.com, etc.).

    The store has been updated for the week, so the theme can now be downloaded.

    Hey RC I forgot my PSN password and the security word. I can log into PSN since its saved but I cant change my billing info. Do I have to call Sony? LOL, I am asking you like you are customer service, sorry.

    I'm off to DL the theme. I think I have a decent shot. I have been on since launch.

    Probably. Not sure what else you could do.

    BTW, I'm assuming no one here is already in the beta test (from applying last year or whatever)? Is that correct?

    They should have never acted like it was almost done when they showed it off. In reality, the development probably hasn't been all that long, but it has seemed like just a few months away pretty much the whole time. It seems like they've had to make some major changes, which they probably should have thought about before they made plans on setting a firm release date.

    Somewhat similar to the FF13 situation IMO (game seems like it has been in development for too long because they started promoting it too early).
    I'd assume by the end of the month. Although I guess it would be better to have a more specific date than that. :eek:

    ACTIVITY ?????????????????

    Arg I barely do that

    Despite having GTA4 and MGS4, I haven't played MGO at all...and I haven't logged into GTA4 online in months

    I think my most recent online was....downloading the Siren demo...

    It'd be awesome if one of us gets it. I'd love to be able to get a first-hand account of Home but I've only had my PS3 for three weeks.

    Apparently today or last night was a big dump of codes. So you probably shouldn't cross your fingers.

    Wow, I got in too (just checked my email). I read that they were sending out invites, but I thought they were for Qore subscribers...and ended last night. Glad to see I was wrong.

    Downloading it now.

    edit: Forgot the Rockets were playing...guess this will have to wait.

    I gotta check my e-mail. How is it? Does it justify the hype?

    It looks really cool.

    I just got a second code today. I got one last week as well, don't subscribe to Qore either.
