Hmm I'm not so sure about this. Just look at the original source. It's just some random dude saying "Sony told me" blah blah blah. I'll wait for the official announcement from Sony.

"First and foremost, Van der Meulen told me (without hesitation) that it is a 100 percent guarantee that Home will be released by the end of this calendar year. He has absolutely no doubt that this will be the case, so it looks like the long wait to come Home is finally reaching its conclusion."

Quoted from: http://ps3.ign.com/articles...

Edit* Heh, I guess I was to slow, anyways, I quoted the good stuff so that peeps don't have to link it up.

push the PS3 over the top and separate it, in earnest, from the competition.

Article had nothing to do with Xbox but hey I'll bite....

First i'm too old for Little Big Planet but there are many Elemetary school GIRLS that would love it as much as they love Hanna Montana.. As for Home if I wanted it I would've joined Second life which Home is an obvious rip off just like Avatars was with Miis. So i'm really not missing out on too much by not having a PS3. Nice try though!

With Sony coming out with games like LBP that are integrated with HOME extensively, it really makes sense that HOME should be coming out this Fall as well to coincide with the release of LBP or to be released soon after LBP, but it's good to finally hear a confirmed release after so many delays.

I've learned to just forgot about everything related to home until it's out, all these updates just remind me about something better off forgotten.

I have a similar feeling. Right now i'm just feeing like "I'll see how it is when it comes out". I just hope it lives up to what i'm expecting in the back of my mind.

16 - i dont
mean to sound skeptical but i will believe this when i actually see it on the store. but they have have been adding alot of ppl to the beta lately so hopefully this might mean they have made great progress with the service and are ready to show it to the world.

i cant wait!! This software or program..whatever you wanna call it is sooo worth the wait by me..as long as Sony's doing right and making this 3d avatar-type world for the PS3 community right then im happy its been delayed for an amount of time to get the game perfect for us! :D :D :D

Cant wait for Home!! Thanks Martijn Van Der Meulen!! You are god-like for making this!!

I will go out on a limb and believe it this time. in that IGN interview, the guys seemed very, very confident about it. before they had been very sketchy about released dates when it got delayed, but they seem certain now.

Sony already said it before and they are making all the right steps so far. Expect Home when LBP releases.

I'm not sure what the hype is about LBP but as of home its FREE. For those saying negative comments about it put a smile on.

Anything that is free, I'm all over it. Please don't think perverted.

25 - I am in the home beta and
there is still alot to do to release this year...there are alot of elements not ready.. If Sony manage to release this year then they deserve a medal..but you know what I think they will do it because right now home beta is at beta 00.98.0
just 2 weeks ago it was beta 00.97.0 so Sony are fixing and working on this.
Tell you people its wicked and game centric!!!
