sorry but it's been almost a year now and there is still no in-game XMB....sooooo frustrating. COme on Sony...how hard can it be to just put out some firmware and actually use the PS button for something more than turning the console on and off. xbox 360 had all that and than some on DAY 1....one year later and still nothing for the PS3....sorry it's just one of those things that when i gop from the one console to the other that really pisses me off

It amazes me the number of people that bytch about a damn cross media bar in game. These same people complaing about what I consider a great system already (keeping in mind the system has been out still less than a year) will still cry when sony finally does give them a cross media bar in game. Unless your just a troll why cant you be happy w/what we have and what will soon follow(I mean seriously) enough is enough. When Sony decides to relase the patch that allows the CMB then they do, til then enjoy the games that are out and the games that are coming soon which really show the power of the PS3. If you cant handle that then move on to another system that will give you what your looking for.

I agree, it's been a while and I don't see why it's so hard to put in such a simple, yet incredibly useful feature in an update.

Come on, what makes you think he's trolling?! Can't you agree that in-game XMB is a very important feature? I used to have a 360 and being able to message people during games was like one of the only things I liked about it lol.

he's not trolling, and he's right. it's unacceptable that they haven't added one in by now...its my only complaint with the system its self other than the fact that i have to convert vids before putting them on the hdd

Come on man there has to be something that differentiates one system to the other. They can't have all the same fuctions or else what's the use of buying one system over the other. This is like saying "Why doesn't the 360 have a portable gaming system that I can connect to"?

Don't worry it will come. I say before this year endings or maybe in November it will come. The main reasons i want in-game xmb is for messages, music, and chattin while you and your friend are playing different games. I dont care if those get adding 1 at a time as long as the features come.

so they should not make an obvious improvement to match their competitor so that the two systems will be different? idunno about that logic...

Yeah of course. It's great when two systems compete because it encourages them to lower prices and make better content. But what's the use of buying one system if it has all the same functions as the other. I understand exclusive games but that's not the topic we're discussing is it?

go work for sony and code it in real quick. last i checked the xmb took up too much (ram i believe) to just implament it as is durring a game.

Come on, what makes you think he's trolling?! Can't you agree that in-game XMB is a very important feature? I used to have a 360 and being able to message people during games was like one of the only things I liked about it lol. wallpaper42
while i do want messaging in game-i dont feel xmb is needed ingame as well. a in-box option in the wall of options is all thats needed. they can even just add a music option right there too. we dont need all the xmbs functions ingame. the only thing i did messaging wise ingame on the 360 was when i was in a lobby and i massed out invites to friends. i refuse to quit a game early cause i got an invite...and im not going to stop in battle to ask my friend hows he doing.

Yeah, even on my 360 I hardly ever use it for music, except when I'm playing Uno. I wanted messages and the like.

you people will never be happy, anyways in-game XBL in necessary neither is listening to your own music! Games are made with their own immersive music deal with it. Just be glad they give you anything.

I completely agree. Its tiresome gettng into agood game online or single player, then having your friend send a message to you. This message says "Hey wasup?", i mean wat the heck.

I should be able to stay in game and message him back, it would be soooo much easier. Its comming up to a year soon, I hope they do something..im getting annoyed, and i bet the person reading this is too..

Common sony.

I'm sorry but "be happy they gie you anything" is just the silliest thing I've ever read. You paid upwards of $500 for a console and you are saying "thank GOD they are giving me something with the money I gave them...Next you are telling me when my car starts having engine problems that I shoudln't complain because at least the company which I PAID is giving me something.

I've only heard such ridiculous logic on this forum.

no i was saying this because i want an in-game friends list option that's universal for all games...i hate the idea of having to sign out of a game just to respond to a message....game invites would be nice too so that you can actually play with your friends...or private chat for all those times in oblivion when you want to ask your friend for help or just talk to someone while you play (and don't ay use a phone that's just retarded)

for all of you who posted, oh it's so pointless it's so dumb i would never need it, once you have it you won't believe how necessary it is. it's the MAJOR reason why XBL has such a strong and successful community... it's because of that instant acess to anyone, anytime.

and no it's not lowering competition and it's not copying for the sake of copying..it's making an already strong FREE online service that much better
