Firmware update?! OMG!!! No ingame text messaging?! Not interested!

I want more features in the updates. Text message in game is a simple feature! Why cant they put it?! I dont even ask for XMB in game, just the text messaging.

 

I dont want to be picky on this but I only visit the PSN store once a week! I download the new demos and thats it! The new visual seems good, they say the miniature stills load faster and all but I will still visit it once a week! No matter how good it looks or loads.

 

sounds alright i guess but i just want the browser fixed. it cant take them that long to update the flash.

hope theres more in the firmware but the new store looks awesome, the one at the moment lets the PS3 down a little

OMG DTS-HD!!!!! Have been wanting this 4 ages.    :)

Neameto, if you paid close attention to the forums you should know that ingame messaging is scheduled for a summer firmware release. So this should come as no surprise to anyone that it is not included.

Good job Sony!

sounds good, but we would know if home was in it.

OMG DTS-HD!!!!! Have been wanting this 4 ages.    :)

I read about that but it wouldn´t hurt SONY to surprise us with it! ; )

Great update and cool new store! Now I just need Prologue.

this is a LOT better looking interface than the present one and the preview function is really nice...let's hope it works out and does not need numerous patches...BTW, Grace is pretty hot....

How about making a h3ll of a lot easier method of creating themes, perhaps something more akin to LittleBIGplanet's level/character customisation, but using HDD content. Yeah! I know it'd take away the sense of achievement, I'm sure I'm not alone, but I really hate asking for themes (cos, I'm sure they have better ideas of their own)

Kewl i like it i really hope home is with it.

Fix the god damn browser. then i wont care about xmb/home release dates. i like watching movies on the ps3 whenever, its a real buzzkill when you get some crap that wont work

they really need windows vista or xp on ps3's browser that would be great

I like the new look of the store. I kind of thought that the content on the Web based store wasn't organized too well and I really like the fact that past content that you download don't  just disappear from the store as well.

 

I guess the only thing that is the most anticipated is in game XMB, but the new Playstation Store update looks very nice.

Wow, so many complaints...Instead of being grateful that Sony is revamping the store (which it really needs) and giving us a much better expierience, the majority of you are complaining like a bunch of teenage girls. "where's my in-game xmb" "no home? Sony sucks!" "whaaa whaa whaa" Just be thankful for what is being done and know that eventually they will deliver what everyone wants! I for one am very thankful for what is being done. Thank you, Sony.

BTW...Grace is Hot!

YAY!  I can't wait Rock band DLC is back in a week.  ha ha.  Well the store looks great.  Enjoy

i wud bone her

to DeadOnArrival06: We are greatful we just figure that sony seems like they are holding back when they can just bring stuff out.They are so sure that Ps3 is the ultimate system that when ps3 first came out all these things should have already been on the ps3 like home and in-gaming texting and all the lil stuff.

Thank you Sony!!!! :D

in game xmb its been moaned at for ages and with the last 3 major updates no progress its a shambles how sometyhing so basic is left out sony need to get thier act together i can see it coming in firmare 2.90 at this rate not happy at all

No matter what the update is in these firmware updates people always have something to complain about! Come on its a good update and everything else that people are waiting for will be around sometime....Give it a rest!

Theres different sections in Sony, this section made there updates, and they were the store section. But anyways, looks nice, I like the improvements.

Still no  direct streaming of the raw audio format...why?  It has to be easier than the PS3 processing it.  Why use the PS3s cheapo circuitry to process the sound when you've spent bucks on a dedicated reciever that can do a better job?

it looks great, sony is starting to do things good. But I think that in near future they should put the xmb's barckround as the store's background.

@Chimpy and others who complain about lack of features

Why dont u just return your ps3 and buy something that does what you want instead of crying about it. If you arent satisfied then buy something that will. Am I i the only one who brought a ps3 to play games O.o Cry me a river...

Finally!  DTS-HD!!!!  FINALLY!!!!

the new playstation store is looking awesome =D

bring it in!

DTS-HD High Resolution Audio.....wat does it mean u get better sound comin out of ur tv or what im not sure bout this and my sound on tv is gd enuf as it is....yes i gt 2 admit gr8 store update but im sure sony can put somin extra like at least a animated background or somin....dnt expect in game xmb till next month!

where the h311 is the downloadable music movies and tv shows and best of all THE PS2 GAMES THEY HAVE PS1 AND PS3 i dont get u sony!!???

that FW isnt so great HONESTLY, wat happened to their less updates for more content stuff? i hope that this isnt all thats in the update, a new store and 2 master quality audio options are good, but come on, surly u coulda added some more features than that sony? :( see this is why there old strategy was better, we were getting more stuff more often, and so far, theyve done ok, but really have only let us down with their "less updates for more content" plan, come on sony.

Sony could have easily given us the top 10 most desired features last year but then if they did that then there would be no new interesting features for the future, so they have been holding back the features and are spreading them out through the years. I bet these features like in-game xmb are ready now and if they aren't why do they waste time on updates that nobody or hardly anyone will benefit from? While everyone wants in-game messaging, Sony gives DTS-HD master audio to the small minority. I'm still not happy that I can't have audio through my tv and digital optic cable for my 5.1 headphones simultaneously, even though I could have on my PS2. I know its not a big enough issue but surely it'll take no time at all to fix.

I do think that the store needed improvements and it looks like they have delivered a store that eveyone will be satisfied with, its now all about how much content is put on it each week. Home is understandable as its a big ambitious project that needs time.

You kids kill me!! You all need to wait and take a chill pill. You should be thinkful that there is a such thing as a FIRMWARE UPDATE. Just a few years ago you didnt have anything like it, and here you are show your a.s.s.e.s. Be thankful and enjoy everything to come.

P.S The psn store looks just like I want it.....classic

psn id: I95SOUTH <---King of all kings

This new Phil Harrison Replacement Sucks.

"DIS' NEW PHIL HARRISON REPLACEMENT SUX!!!"

Suck-suckitty-suc-suk-SUX!

Working prototype? Bullsh!t.  It goes live in less than 6 days.  Not that I care because the new store looks so much better.  Better than I had thought out myself.

Lol, then the new PS Store rumor images where right!

Interesting update, not sure why people are still crying about in-game xmb and home, im sure when its all good and ready they will be released, you'd soon moan if they rushed it and it didnt work correctly. Anyway im still smashed and i wouldnt say no to Grace !

Dave, is you writing all teh good articles nao?

@hood, are you a Jerry Springer guest?  You should be, certainly seems like your interlectual limit.

What's up with all the suckers here. I say we need to complain more, let the voice be heard, request what you want. Sony's here to make money, he cares only if we give him crap instead of money. I don't get you people, if you were a slave, and they gave you a meal a week, and other slaves would complain how they're slave, you'd tell them to chill out and be thankfull for their meal a week!! You paid for that PS3, it should be worth all your penny and more, Sony is not doing this cause they're nice, so shut it. I say it's a nice store update, one that really really needed an update from the start, but it took to long to come out, and so does everything else.

@ didibus: completely on target.  We paid for the system and Sony is still not delivering things we've demanded, and competitors have offered, for too long.  I'm not saying to go sell your system, because without a doubt the ps3 has some killer games and great potental in the feature department, but we're the consumer and the point is not that we should be thankful - we're paying their bills remember - but that Sony has still not delivered on things that should have been included over a year ago. 

 

People need to realize that sony, and all other companies, are not a jesus at heart, they just want our money.  So if they really want to be succesful w/ this system, they need to get things out sooner and out right.  And to all you people that say you'd rather it be out right later than have a bunch a bugs sooner, it is possible to have it both right and out fast, but it wont happen unless you demand it.

 

Oh and @I95South: We should be thankful that sony follows up with their products? Firmware is a way for them to improve their product over their competitors', to attract more people to spend their moolla on a ps3.  And remember being thankful doesn't mean stopping progress.  If we were just "thankful" and didn't demand better, nothing would ever improve.  In most major corporations, if the consumer doesn't complain, the company doesn't deliver.

@Neameto what have you been playng... last time i checked you could do in-game messaging with Army Of Two, Burnout Paradise, Lost Planet, Resistance, Rock Band, R6V, and R6V2... these are the only titles i'm aware of since these are the only ones in my library that have that feature... i've noticed that they've been coming out with this in alot of recent Multiplayer titles.... but In-Game XMB would be better than this... especially for those single player times...

im holding my breath, we need home. We have been promised it since launch day, how does sony like to tease us, showing us videos of home a year and a half ago, still nothing. Well the good thing is GTA4 is comin, yeahhhhhhhhhhhh. 1FM WILL BE THERE LOOK 4 us, all bats battle !!!!!
