According to a PlayStation Underground press release sent out earlier today, Sony has confirmed that it will be sending out Home Beta invites to annual Qore subscribers only.

"As an update to the PLAYSTATION(R)3 News email sent on Friday, October 24th, the special invitation to PlayStation(R)Home's closed beta is available only to Qore annual subscribers who purchased subscriptions by 10/29. Qore Episode 06 purchasers will not be eligible for the special PlayStation(R)Home beta invitation at this time. We apologize for the miscommunication." - PlayStation Underground Press Release

As a result, those of you looking to take advantage of this offer will have to fork out for a year's subscription to Qore -- which isn't a bad thing in itself.

    Ive said it before and i will say it again ALL BETA TESTING should go to the PS3 faithfull and by that i mean the early adopters people who splashed out the full monty on launch day, its the least Sony could do.

    Yes!  I KNEW that would come in handy!  Honestly guys, annual subscribers have gotten NOTHING over people who were getting Qore month-to-month (or not at all and watching it on Youtube).  People said it was "dumb", "unecessary" (which I never agreed with anyway, but) now it seems to matter.  People actually rubbed Qore subcribers' noses in the fact that they were pirating it!  I don't know why ppl buy Qore month-to-month anyway.  It's $1 cheaper per episode when you go annual.  Anyway, I'm happy.

    Not only that, but be realistic, there's no way for Sony to know who the early adopters are.  By the way, I'm an early adopter with my launch 60GB.

    wow, and I just decided to buy the annual subscription a couple of days ago. I think it was on the 29th when I bought it. Looks like I'll be home.

     This is BS....then what was the point about downloading the HOME theme way back when....I thought that download was supposed to enter you in for a chance to test the beta....Sony really messed this one up.

    @3 I agree. It really irked me that I paid for the annual sub. and PTOM subs. have been getting for free each month. I'm glad it finally is going to pay off. Only I got selected earlier to be a Home beta tester from DL the Home theme from Qore so I already have it. For those of you dying to get into the Home beta, please listen. Your not really missing that much. .There isnt a lot to do yet  in Home and its still growing.

    @10 actualy dowloading that theme did work out i got my invite 2 1/2 weeks ago from Sony because i downloaded that theme to.

    @richkaos just because you bought your PS3 when it drop dont make you better then some body who got theres two months ago. i got my 60gb in May six months after so what who cares when you got your PS3.
