Great news, all of you PS3 owners! Wired Magazine is reporting that Sony's public beta of their Home service is coming in 2008! This is great news for PS3 owners who have been looking for a coherent online experience more akin to XBL.
In related news, Sony has teamed up with Future US to bring a new series to the PSN, the Qore series. It will contain news, previews, reviews, etc. Up side is that a lot of it will be interactive via the SixAxis DualShock3 controllers, with a variety of options for interaction. Down side, though, is the episodes will not be free and will cost either $2.99 per episode or $24.99 for a year's subscription. Could this be the future of magazine delivery? I have a feeling that if this series is successful, we will start to see a variety of other periodical publishers moving to this type of content delivery. A lot of it depends on the success of this series, though. If viewers pick it up, then the advertisers will come, and so then more content will become available soon thereafter.
