PS Home Special Private Beta Being Sent Out, Adds Teleporter, New Hub and More
TheParanoidGamer: "Well looks like PS HOME is about to launch a special Beta. Today, Sony sent out some invites for a Special Beta that Home will be offering."
(Home, PS3)
Once a time ago i got a secret beta invite to PS Home, i was like 1 of 500 or summin, it was for testin some new interface, it was a year or so ago, anyway, i mentioned it on N4G (comment section) and b4 you know it some slag grassed me up (to who-ever i dont know) and i got denied access to that feature on PS Home
If you think im lyin troll through all my comments, itll be there somewhere
So i wouldnt recommend openin your mouth OR leakin any footage, Sony will f you up man
I've gotten a PSN message regarding this with an attachment. Haven't looked at it yet, but will research it a bit more since it's not from the usual PSN user, but a user by the name of Locust_Star.
Edit: Looks legit considering Locust_Star is the face for Home on PS Blog.
Update: Downloaded and installed and went through the instructions. Currently loading the new beta environments. Will see if there's anything of value here. Normally Home just hasn't been for me.
Update #2: Tried out the new area, still wasn't into it. It's like a much smaller hub with few stores and games. Looks like a bit of a step back, but perhaps they are going to release more over time. There was an activity board that gave out quests, but it broke while I was using it (not a coincidence, I tell you!), which could be neat. The way it was designed, looks like players can create quests for the activity board as well.
Yeah that's what kind of got me. Normally when I get messages from PSN from Sony they are actual names. IDK maybe Locust is his last name, but seems odd. It's definitely real though as the HUB in home been change for me (it didn't show the huge menu) and from what I understand no more loadings now when going to other areas.
I'm in it. Played around with it a bit, but haven't had time to really dig into it. Looks good, thus far. The FPS runs fairly well, but still needs a bit of work.

Edit:
Footage man! I need footage!
Not like I can't wait until they actually release the thing :p
(Unlike some people who only say "Can't wait" for something that doesn't even have a release date...)
Must u be a regular Home user or something?
PS+ Subscriber and probably had to visit home sometime prior before invites got sent
