Asia didn't have a Home Closed Beta?
What? This is a different region from Japan I thought that they were are covered by SCEJ? Sony have a truly bizarre setup.
They need to sort this out and go global on gaming. Forget all this region b0ll0x it's really getting on my nerves. Next week we'll probably have a load of stupid PR goofs from SCEH to grace our eyes/ears.
Who is at the top of all this mess (oh I think that's Kaz "primaraly PR machine" Hirai. What a n00b. Ok the second 0 is optional there
Home is being created by Studios London which may mean that EU and NA might get Home before any of the other countries, however by saying this there will be no chance in that to happen so perhaps Oct is the earliest release date.
i hate regions !!! why cant sony just release everything for every country in the world ?! i live in kuwait ( Asia ) and i dont we dont have even a PS Store !! though lots of kuwaitins own a ps3.. and only 10 people own a xbox 360 or somethin ... yeah we hate xbox :D :D :D
