Home Beta Hitting March?


If you're still worried about PlayStation Home's fate, even after the assurance of Sony itself that development is still ongoing despite Phil Harrison's departure - then this should settle your nerves: the countdown for the virtual world/reality service's beta release has been spotted. Yes, a countdown page, with only a counter and the PlayStation Home Beta logo on it. Nothing else, except the promise that PlayStation Home is coming.

Just when will this countdown end, you ask? Well, as of this writing, the counter says that we have only 22 days left - which points to a March 20 release. No, we haven't quite received official word from Sony about this - but as far as release dates go, this seems pretty feasible. Now it's all just a matter of staying sane while the pretty numbers wind down to oblivion. Updates as we get them.

Why would Sony use http://www.gandi.net/ to host a countdown to their product release? Fake....

A View Source code of the page also reveals they are using Statcounter to see how many hits they would get. Why would they do all this?

And look at another page hosted on that site: http://green.colorize.net/

Its just a bunch of bull...

lmao fake i found this when it came out and ppl in other counrties tell me it sais 27 days when i saw it saying 22
