We need a better way to sort through music on PS3. It takes forever to scroll through my music lists now that I have GBs worth of stuff. I guess Sony must have changed their minds about dynamic themes and premium avatars. AdHoc Party US is probably a no-go now too.

This is obviously fake. The menu language is not English and we all know that if there is one thing SCEE hates more than the English, it's mainland Europe. There's no way a feature, any feature, would come to a PlayStation with Portuguese (or Spanish?) menus. #playstation3
Ugh, Sony, no...just fucking no. One of the things I really like(d) about the PS3 was the sleek UI. It was simple to navigate, aesthetically pleasing, and had a more 'mature' (for lack of a better word) look to it.
You can already access Facebook easily from the web browser (and, ya know, a fucking computer), and it would be nice to not have the UI even more cluttered than the last update.
If anything, I'd like to see a reduction in the amount of crap on the XMB. #playstation3
-where the hell are the new avatars? its 2009. either put in new ones. or create a system which we can submit avatars, and they go through some tech approval process. i need some old snake on my psn NAO!!! :P
-please fix the friends list. mad gray space for no goddamn reason. link below is a great idea.
-where are dynamic themes for:
-Uncharted
-RAtchet and clank
-MGS4
please plan for GoW3,FF13,GT5 dynamic themes... ya know games we actually want themes for.
- please also consider a approval process to change your psn id. i'm one of those fools who chose a damn psn id that does not mach the handle i use on gaming blogs,irc, etc.
-mkv support would be a nice bonus.
my 300 gb of anime would thank you
@zåɳzißårléɠёпȡ: there's this program you can download called PS3 Media Server. it's java based, and it lets you play mkv files on your ps3 #playstation3
@zåɳzißårléɠёпȡ: I can't find the exact quote that I am looking for since it was back in the August-September area. Only thing I found close was the video for FW 3.00 here, [blog.us.playstation.com] at 4:04 Lempel says we will be seeing the new avatars "over the next few months" whcih you can take any way really. But knowing Sony, I would almost always go to the end of that time frame for when it will be out.
Again, sorry I couldn't find the reply that said exactly what I was looking for. It was a reply in one of the many official blog posts in response to someone b!tching about the lack of avatars. I'll settle for being a dirty liar for now :( #playstation3
Can anyone tell me why I'd want facebook integration on my consoles? It's not all that difficult to access it - computers, cell phones, laptops - even if you don't own these things yourself chances are you know someone who does. And even then, the chances of you owning a video game console with an internet connection while simultaneously not owning a computer are next to nil. #playstation3
how bout they just let me display my favorite trophies, the color doesnt excite me too much. facebook... dont know of a time i would ever use it, much quicker to hop on my iphone app. #playstation3
One thing that's odd (and I'm sure it didn't have this before, been using Last.Fm for about a year before I shifted to Spotify) but the Last.FM page currently says "It looks likes you're using a console browser. we are currently unable to provide web radio on these platforms" which suggest some licensing who-har (cos it's not a technical issue, PS3 supports Flash, much like it used to run Hulu)#
But any-who. Facebook much better suits browser anyway, especially with all the app's n stuff it does these days. If they actually get some kind of integration, like posting up screenshots n such, then it could be worthwhile. until then it's pretty silly to add it to PS3.
I guess a decent Twitter client wouldn't go amiss, they have the foundation built with Uncharted 2 ( which Uncharted 1 intro-d Trophy's so we'll see)
Though App wise I really really want the iplayer app to not be the gimped browser version, but work like the desktop client. Cos PS3 has a harddrive, and iplayer on TV makes sense. #playstation3
@deanbmmv: try pandora instead. i got it to work on the ps3, and then used the remote play feature of the psp to stream it to my psp and listen to it in bed. #playstation3
How bout a console that also gives me TV service? Wait, that's already taken care of with Netflix. Add in social networking aspects? Will be taken care of with recent updates. Watch movies for a fee? Several different available options. Surfing the net from the box? Well I don't want to be using my controller to do it, but if they would open up mouse/keyboard support for web browsing only (to keep the playing field for multiplayer games as level as possible) then this box could do damn near everything I would need it to while sitting in front of a TV.
They should add an "order pizza" button so I don't have to leave the house. #playstation3
@lolgreg: I understand why most people would be, but I like the console controller myself. I know it's very limited, but in most all games I play, the controller really isn't an issue. I never throw mine in frustration.
But I'm thinking that those who either don't want or can't afford the keyboard/mouse combo would be at a severe disadvantage in multiplayer games, since the mouse is much more sensitive to horizontal movement than the controller stick, even when you turn the sensitivity up to 11.
Think about the next gen of console games though, and how they are combining many aspects and weeding out computers, making you spend more time on the console. It makes sense to open up support for key/mouse at least on a browser level. Not everyone has a chat pad, and typing messages one key at a time is a pain in the ass.
I don't want console games to go the way of 100% digital downloads. I like physically buying and owning a copy of the game. But when I think about the next gen, it just makes sense that they will all include a browser, Blu Ray playback, HD graphics, etc. My TV service would become even more obsolete with Hulu and Netflix combined -- that's extremely cheap monthly entertainment. #playstation3

You obviously haven't had to spend a large amount of time looking at those hideous gray squares they turned the gamercard into, lol. #playstation3
