So typical of Sony…

Sony releases the Home public beta and I’m getting an error on my first attempt. Last night it worked just fine and as usual with Sony they probably weren’t setup to handle the load.
They have a horrible track record online when it comes to game releases and stability. This goes way back to SOCOM on the PS2 and has plagued the PS3 online experience with WarHawk, LBP, SOCOM 3 and others.
I have complained about this on the Sony forums and the fanboys always get defensive and suggest to “give it a couple of weeks to get better”. SOCOM 3 was dying with 20,000 concurrent users and Sony was almost bragging about it because there were so many people online 🙂 I remember the Halo 3 launch, as we stood in line for the midnight release the east coast was getting home and starting to play. There were a million users on before midnight CST and Live had minor problems with matchmaking.
I know this is a beta and I am supposed to be forgiving but come on Sony! Get on it and move to a Live like model. This Christmas I have recommended 360’s to anyone who likes to play online because you can’t get it together.
