We all know about the Warhawk v1.3 patch info, and its Home integration.
We all know about the PSN page on here (us.playstation.com) that was up, then removed, that had info on Home.
We all know that GDC is 2 days away.
Here is something most of us dont know, and why would we? We dont develop PS3 games. I wont disclose where this info came from, nor will I discuss where the info came from any further after this post. I will instead let you all speculate.
The following is from a Private Message with someone to remain nameless. I am not gonna name names and throw this person under the bus.
"Do you know what PSedge tools are?
Basically, it's a development environment filled with code libraries that allow developers to have an easier time integrating their game code to work with the PS3.
Anyways, very exciting stuff happened on Monday (The one that just past). The PSedge dev kits, recieved an update. So whatever, we take a look, and the major addition, was that the TRC's were updated, and the new HOME libraries were brought in.
What does this mean? A TRC is a checklist of things a game must have for Sony to approve, in order for them to give the "Go-Ahead" on releasing the game on their console. This checklist has things like: Can't crash, Load times under 10 seconds, and things like that.
Two new ones were added: A game must be able to integrate into Home, a game must support "Accomplishments". Right there, two important things, the PS3 system for achievements is called "Accomplishments", and Home is coming out VERY VERY VERY Soon.
Then, we got a changelog, and in-game XMB is almost worked out. Every game that's coming out now, supports in-game XMB, every game that already came out, has to get patched. (Naturally, only first party games will get a patch, I doubt Ubisoft is going to patch Assassin's Creed).
So yeah, it boils down to, Sony got everything figured out. I don't know what's the hold up, but from a developers perspective, HOME is set up and completed, and In-Game XMB is on the verge of being completed and released."

considering that you aren't a newb and you know what you are talking about, this is probably fact.

Thank you everyone so far for not flaming me. To be honest, I am not 100% sure it this is real or not either. But the person who I spoke with doesnt have any reason to lie, and the info seems to be pretty specific, and isnt just one of those "Home will be out next week" lies. I am not a dev, so I dont know if the tools really did get updated. But I assume they must have, because how else did Incognito get the tools to patch Warhawk with these new features? |

I do appreciate that comment. However dont take it as a fact just yet, as I am not 100% sure. I am only posting it because it makes perfect sense since the Warhawk announcement. So you are right in saying its probably a fact. I just dont want to be quoted saying "look here, this is a fact" |

Sounds plausible --but I will reserve judgment.
