The Home public beta starts later this month, even though the full version should have been out by now. If you want to know how people were chosen to participate in the long-delayed PS3 feature, then let Sony explain it to you.
“We had a couple of plans on how that was going to be done,” said a Sony rep on the company’s forum. “Both were broadly based on the concept of loyalty.”
That is quite cryptic, and our very own Joe Burling believes that you had to log in to MetaCritic and give Gears of War 2 a low score in order to be considered. Seriously though, I wonder how the platform holder quantifies loyalty. Number of downloads or hours logged in to the PSN … or something … darker?
It’s likely something simple, but part of me wishes to believe it actually involved Sony challenging you to commit bloody murder in its name. Just how far are you willing to go to show your allegiance to Sony and its Dark Priest, Tretton the Quasi-Magnificent? Prove yourself, thrall!
