It was announced today that the Home beta would be available to the masses tommorrow(12/11). I have only been participating in the beta for a couple of weeks. Honestly, I have been skeptical of Home’s potential appeal for quite some time. My brief involvement in the beta has been  less than convincing, however this is where the rubber meets the road. When everyone has a chance to take Home out for a test drive it will interesting to see what sticks. For a console struggling to find an identity in terms of must-have exclusive games while pushing bluray movies, I don’t see how people spending time in Home helps to put either of the goals within striking distance(similar to MS selling movies while teaming with Netflix). I know one thing Sony needs to find a way to allow multiple people to play the arcade games in the bowling alley. That is one of the strangest design decisions I’ve seen. Home is in a weird place to me.

I have 2 gripes with the NXE. One is that the visual friends list is too much for me with 99 people on my friends list. The second is that Netflix does not have Killer Klowns from Outer Space available for streaming. That actually has nothing to do with the NXE, so I guess I have one gripe.

I went into Halo 3 and I got the message that my NAT was not open. Then I remembered that I reset my router so off I go to change those settings. I didn’t know what my 360 IP was so I went to the system blade and I noticed that my primary/secondary dns were not using opendns. So I changed my dns server settings and ran the XBL test and I get a message saying that an update is available. That update was NXE. Nice
