Better check your email inbox. Why? We’ve been informed that PlayStation Home invites are going out. Yes, invites to the extended private beta that was promised back in early August. An excerpt from the invitation message:

Thank you for downloading the PLAYSTATION®Home Theme! You have been selected to help beta test the next phase of PlayStation®Home’s evolution. 

As a Beta Tester, you will be expected to help shape the PLAYSTATION®Home experience by providing feedback and submitting to us any issues you may find. We appreciate your help in making the PLAYSTATION®Home experience the best it can be!

If you weren’t fortunate enough to receive an email – tough luck. No, no. Just kidding! The latest word is that invites are apparently being sent out on a weekly basis, so there’s still a glimmer of hope left.
