If you're reading this article, you're browsing the new version of PSU.com. We've been working on "Version 3" of the site behind the scenes for a long time, and today we finally launched it. Hooray!
PSU Version 3 is far more than a mere layer of visual finesse (though it certainly does look quite pretty). We wanted to make the site more functional, yet simpler to navigate. That task took a great deal of time and effort, but we're extremely proud of the final product. While we realize there might still be a few minor kinks to work out, we'll continue to polish PSU and the new PS3Forums until we're 100% satisfied with their functionality. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the new and improved PlayStation Universe!
New Features:
-- Full Browser Compatibility
PSU should work perfectly in such browsers as Firefox 2 and 3, Safari, Internet Explorer 6 and 7, Google Chrome, and even the PS3 Browser!
-- Easier Navigation
New site-wide breadcrumb (always know where you are) and an article page navigation module for quick content browsing

-- Increased Forum Integration
Tighter integration of PS3Forums with PSU, with featured PSU content on the PS3Forums homepage
-- Streamlined Media Galleries
New gallery layouts for images, videos, and wallpapers

-- New Search
Improved search with filters; it's easier to find what you are looking for with specific categories like games, news, themes, and forums
-- Trophy Portal
Get all the latest PS3 Trophy news in the Trophy portal

I love the new update. I was browsing the forums and looked up at the top and saw this posted on PSU so I clicked it and it took me straight to it. Never would have saw this until way later cause I don't check PSU that much. The new integration is awesome. Will check it on the PS3 browser and see how it works.
Tremendous job to everyone who worked on this. Even with the few bugs, it is still kick a**.
