PlayStation@Home working! (but you can't play)

rda990 or whatever... I want you to make a video of you going through all of your logins and showing us all of your online names so we can determine if one of your other logins are on the beta testing list. Make a video of that to prove some more facts for us.

[PS3 News]

To dustinmyles and Santyx: please stop requesting more "videos" as they are useless. If what cs475x stated is true, then it's obvious that rda990 is deliberately misleading us by not mentioning the SaveData file nor supplying it to begin with.

With that being said, any other 'requests' for videos or other useless BS will be removed. Let's let rda990 respond to BlackMamba7's questions directly and provide the missing info/files as necessary.

Guys it is rda990 that is signed up for the beta HOWEVER I believe that he was chosen and just pulling all of our arms he was not able to get onto home using this.

Also he wouldnt be able to log in with another account even if he has a licensed account with home. It be like warhawk they dont let you in with another account.

Id just ignore his posts and concentrate on the problem at hand unless he wants to help and provide the files he has like a save file maybe if there is 1 for home.

If this IS the case, which I have no proof if it is or isn't, then rda990 showing us the other users on his PS3 would not confirm anything because:

- A home beta tester could have been on his PS3
- Signed in so Sony has there MAC address
- rda990 then deletes the user from the ps3
- rda990 could still sign in because Sony still recognized the MAC address

What I'm saying is that people are requesting rda990 shows us his other ps3 users... but that wouldn't necessarily help because it could all be one big lie. This isn't a delayed April Fools Joke is it?

What we need is rda990 to give 100% fool proof instructions... and for someone to replicate it with Home working and playable... Until then, I'm putting this down as a hoax.

No problem... I wish I could forget that, but sadly get reminded of it daily.

I think the issue is the real PS3 Devs don't care about Home stuff because all except 1 of them refuse to update to v2.20 to even mess with this junk.

Just tonight though, they have accomplished something VERY big with regards to PS3 TEST/Retail consoles... and hopefully CJPC will make a news post on it when they are ready to share the news.

Anyway, let's wait for rda990 to reply now...

Do you have any other users on your PS3? If so, maybe they're Home Beta testers, and that's why yours worked. 3. Do you have a save game from the Home Beta? 4. What country do you live in? Maybe its country specific, for those xml files... 5. Have you tried since the update was released?

First i wanna say that this is BS if you think im a beta tester or any other accounts on my PS3 are Beta testers becuase sony was picking people last year like in April or March i beleve? yeah, i didnt have a PS3 back then. I just got mine last year november.

1. yes that one was from the Past verision yeah aka the F@H way, if i delete it it would of had no effect on this Home Beta one.

2. yes, i do just one with the UK account, and once again i just got my PS3 November of last year, too late to accept home invites. (oh and isnt Home Beta only US?)

3. yes i do my characters and settings are stored there

4. USA, dont really think it has anything to do, maybe it does idk

5. yes i did i get the copyright error (same thing that happend with the F@H way) so me and cs475x are currently trying to get either the HOME Beta one outta GAME and put it uper PLAYSTATION NETWORK (which i doubt is possible) or just try to find the new PATCH download link.

oh yeah i forgot SINCE IM GETTING LIKE 100 messages every minute i am making a guide on how to do this on youtube tommrow (http://www.youtube.com/rda990) so dont forget to check it those people who dont know how to do it

nice job standing up to everyone rda990... i want to see your video to see what i did wrong... maybe its just a glitch, who knows will see later.

[BlackMamba7]

Cool, thanks for the answers... but with no one else getting it working you can understand the skepticism that people have towards believing you.

I'll take a look at the save game and see if it helps at all...

So a USA account may be the way to go... and it's not working with the latest update....
Wonder if you can avoid updating? (I can't test this at the moment) Lets see what we can do people!!!!
