in game xmb to be released soon

Sony has confirmed that in-game XMB access will be available sometime this year, but it could be here earlier than expected. In a mix-up on the US PlayStation Website, the PS3 section of the website mentioned "talk to others during gameplay, say hellow anytime you're online" but was then taken off the website shortly after. Luckly, the information is still available from Google's cache Also, the same information appears on the Australian PlayStation Website.

I hope sony will realease a custom tracks firmware for the ps3 some time soon

Lame. Custom tracks are a waste. I actually hope we don't get this feature.

And I hope that you can play your own music in GTA IV via radio. Way better than in-game xmb.uRan_Ehr

You wouldnt have to use it...

^^^ sounds like you woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. Custom tracks can be good but most of the time i just have my music playing over game. Still custom radio stations would be nice. clyde46

I wake up on the right side everyday. It's just that prefer hearing the composers music for the game being a music producer myself. Some games have great music (God of war, FF7, FF8, FF9 etc). It's just an opinion of mine and I'm not trying to stop anyone from liking it.

I agree. With most of the games I get, I actually prefer to listen to the game's soundtrack. The only exception for me would be shooting games....and I don't have many of them, because shooting games are my least favorite kind of game. Maybe when more racing and fighting games come out (I'm really anticipating Soul Calibur IV and Midnight Club: Los Angeles), I'll have more of an use and interst for in game custom tracks (or in game XMB, or whatever you want to call it).

then dont use it. i dont understand why you dont. you play a game with a really bad soundtrack like pixeljunk monsters or everyday shooter, you can replace it with music you listen too. its obvious that you dont listen to music or else you would want it.

fighter jets have ejector seats but it doesnt mean that the pilots use them whenever they want but its there in case they need it. think of xmb as the same thing, it can save your life if a game has a boring soundtrack

Yer I agree with you in that respect mabey it is best to not let people play their crappy britney speares ablums over the hard work of the music producers.

These are very good points, but I would really only play music over games with popular music that the producers did not create, such as Burnout Paradise. When the music is selected from pop-culture(i.e. Avril Lavigne) I really don't care to hear that. I would rather play to my own music, as I do in my own car.
