My co-worker was telling me that ps3 is offically coming out of beta july 18 orjune 18 and also telling me that they would be charging a $50 yearly fee much like the xbox live. He has never been wrong on any info he has given me but being that I havent seen anything about it, I was wondering if the community has heard anything about? Can anyone Confirm or Deny this?

Deny. The only thing in beta is Playstation Home, and that thing will probably always be in beta.

That's great, because I was about to sell my ps3 right then. I mostly play my 360 because of all my friends in college play it. I only have a few ps3 games and they are all online with the exception of God Of War III. I would have been pretty mad if they pulled that one. I could see it happening though if they dont do better in sales.

where did your co-worker get his info from?

All the rumors about people having to pay for PSN are all false.

There's talk about an optionalPSN premium service, but playing online will still be free.

Guys, there is going to be a "Premuim PSN." Sony said so there self (google it, im too lazy.)

But, they also said that "Everything that is free now will remain free." (not a direct quote...)

And PS3 has been final since it's release :P

but they never said u are forced to pay, everythin about ps network u have now going to remain free and ONLINE PLAY as well. the premium service is pretty much going to be earlier demos , more avatars and cross game chat, and probably few other things, but other than that they said they will continue to support the free online and wat not, so either way PSN is free

no not if sales didnt get better i was going to sell, but if they charged for online i would sell. and i work at a local gamestore and i was going by our sales numbers. its not an "Offical" count my anymeans but its not as great as some of the other systems

ok well my bad about the selling part lol, but ONE store (yours) doesnt mean anythin, go for world wide sales, ps3 caught up to xbox sales i mean they probably off by few hundred thousands or maybe a mill or 2 but dude, ps3 is far from failing and its sales are great, dont worry about anythin, psn isnt going to be charging, and if they are its going to be OPTIONAL, like i said above they going to add few things here and there and earlier demos thats about it maybe they will have few thigns that will surprise us but, dont worry sales for sp3 is great matter fact its doin so well alot of places are sold out, if u browse the ps3 forums ull see how many ppl complaining about ps3s being sold out everywhere

I think you don't really mean to say "beta" - that is, if you are actually serious.
