  this sounds fake to me.
  
  sony said themselves that the next ps3 firmware update is 2.30 which features the psn store revamp which is an update of about 0.10 which will be available in 2 weeks time.
  
  so if home was to be released in 1 week then that means its only something like 0.05 of an update which cant be true due to the fact that its a whole new application like folding@home which was like 0.30 of an update.
  
  well thats my Two cent's and that's what i think. >.>

    i was more skeptic about it being april 1st
    
    isnt the PSstore a separate entity to the firmware? its nothing more then a website, it can be changed around without the need of an update can it not?

      It is now but from the sounds of it they are going to try and make it some sort of an application that runs to improve load times at least thats the impression i got from readin the playstation blog.

  If it's true. About time! Also, what's the

  quote interview
  

  Ron: Actually yes. The next firmware update will bring joy to PS3 owners faces, now I won't spoil the surprise you will just have to wait and see

  
  
  Is that linked to the PS Store update?
  
  

  quote Sr. Director of the Playstation Blog
  
  

  When the PLAYSTATION Store is set to re-open with the new interface, PS3 users will be prompted to download a firmware update which will enable entry to the new store.

  Well, I don't own a PS3 but I know someone who does and they said they cannot wait. So it looks like it is going to be good.

      It's also probably worth viewing this article in regards to the date of the next firmware release (and update of the PlayStation Store). It contradicts this article quite nicely.

  Damn it. I hate April Fools now. Btw, that source site isn't working. You need to be logged in to view the source.
  Has this been confirmed as April Fools or are we just assuming?

  This is definitely April Fools. Or else, Sony would've announced it at a much bigger event, like GDC or E3.

    Tell me about it... I posted a few rick and roll vids and almost all of them got reported with people hiding my comment.. LMAO. They obviously have no life if they cant even enjoy abit of humour on an internet forum.

      Xenctuary | April 01, 2008
      Um, no.
      
      "rick and roll vids" aren't funny. Neither is this, really. What is mildly funny, however, and what jmac353 was alluding to, is how some people find April Fools a very stressful day as they struggle to comprehend that fantastic sounding news can actually be false every once in a while.

        Oh joy. Yeah, news that can only be false on one day of the year. Only looking between the lines once every 365 days, great.

  Could someone with at least SOME kind of authority on here get rid of all the April Fool's jokes? How are we supposed to find the actual news with this flood of shit?

  Everyone wants to do their own joke.
  
  Take every article on or within a day or so of April 1st with a grain of salt. If it sounds 'too good to be true', and it is April 1st (or nearly so), it almost certainly is.
  
  And yeah, that other article posted a while ago, contradicted this quite well Firmware 2.3 isn't out for two weeks.

  So I guess this word has spread to even the Official Playstation Blog...and this was even looked at by a Sony Social Media Manager.

  The thread was 5 pages when I saw it last night around 8pm PST. Someone made a post saying something along the lines of "whoever owns the site / wrote that, if they're reading this they're probably LOLing". I was lol'ing.

  Lol, they took it so seriously (Countdown, and such), despite the fact the 'news' came out on APRIL FIRST. HOW MORE OBVIOUS DOES IT NEED TO BE?
  
  I pity the fools who actually believed it...It had to hurt a bit, to find out it was just a joke -_-
