PSN updates that we absolutely need by the end of this year.

1. Redesign the PSN Store-It's so boring to look at and scroll through. Yes it is easy to navigate, but I also want something interesting to look at. Like the one photoshopped PSN store that someone made, that looked very good. Also, integrate it with the XMB.

2. More content-What good is a nice looking store without stuff to buy? The game selection is a joke right now, and to make matters worse Crash 2/Spyro 1/Spyro 2 have been taken off. There are alot of PS1 games that Sony could get on the PSN store, if they talked it over with the developers of course. Resident Evil 1-3, MGS1, Silent Hill 1, Crash 3, Spyro 3, and Crash Team Racing are just a few 3rd party games Sony could get on the PSN store. And, Sony has alot of PS1 games/CD-ROM PS2 games that they themselves can put on the store, including Warhawk, twisted metal, Ico, and omega boost. The PSN store could be something great, IF SONY WOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT (which I'm sure they are).

3. Be able to send voice messages, vs text, and be able to send 1 voice message to multiple people.

4. Be able to send music/video to people, but only up to a certain size. You can share music/video in Home though, so I dunno if this would be 100% needed.

5. Be able to add money to your cart from the PSN store-Sony hasn't even released PSN cards, they should do both. Let us buy money (to pay for PSN stuff) online, in $5, $10, $15, $20, and $40 increments

6. More original downloadable games-Sony has done a good job of getting games like Echochrome, Pain, calling all card, blast factor, flOw, Super Star Dust HD, Everyday Shooter and more, but they can't just rely on PS1 games to have a great store. They need to find more indie-developers, or make deals with these devs, and get these types of games on the store.

7. Gamercard-Well, I suppose this is going to come, but I thought I'd include this anyway. It allows people to see your games, trophies, etc without having to be inside your Home.

8. Display blu ray movies in 720p-self explainitory.

9. Auto-download demos/trials when they come out-Just makes it easier, as soon as you log in. It sets it to auto-background download, and you don't have to do it yourself. But, you have to install the game yourself after it's downloaded.

10. In game music-some games just have crappy music and you need your own.

11. In game XMB-send/recieve messages from people, change PS2 game settings, see who's online, look at your downloads, etc.

12. Mid game invites-it can be very hard to get games together with friends, so use this to get into the game late.

13. Updates for old games-to show in 720p/1080i, to support rumble, trophies (first parties at least), and Home lobbies.

14. Faster servers-pretty obvious, PSN is dead slow.

15. Standby Downloading-turn off the console (power stays on, your account is still logged in), it continues downloading, and when it's finished downloading (doesn't install) it turns off/logs you out by itself.

16. Able to chat with a friend in a different game-You're playing SOTC, he's playing ninja gaiden sigma, just so you don't get lonley

17. Render BC games in high def-instead of just stretching the image.

18. More compatible web browser-flash/java and such.

19. Clan support-have a clan avatar, clan moto, clan name, etc. Have a seperate area (under XMB) which shows the clan members, upcoming events (UT3 game, wipeout racing event, etc), whos on, etc.

20. XMB folders-say you have alot of pictures, and it can get troublesome to find the ones you want. You can have folders to hold them, closed until you open it, and they can store pics/music/video by alphabet, date taken, when you uploaded it, etc. Or have a folder called "family guy" to have all your family guy videos.

21. Start to have regular basis demos/downloadable games-The PSN updates (store) tend to be (right now) trailers and some other crap. We should get demos/downloadable games on a certain basis at least, from Sony's first party stuff at least. Not all of this at once, but overtime of course. At least by the end of the year.

1. Ico. The Japanese version. The US version was screwed up compared to the Japanese/european versions, and it's near impossible to find.

2. Okage: Shadow King. One of the most under rated RPGS of last gen, I never got to finish it!! I would buy this game day one if they released it!!

3. Warhawk for the PS1- Eh...now that I think about this maybe not. I mean, we are getting the improved Warhawk soon, so what would be the point? But, nostalgia is always good.

4/5. Crash/Spyro 3. They've already put Crash Bandicoot 1/2, and Spyro 1/2 on the Playstation Network, obvious they are going to put these up too.

6. Omega Boost. polopoly Digital is working on GT5/GT5 prolouge, but I want Omega Boost! Ok, this probably isn't going to happen, but damn this game was awesome on the PS1! Mech games are cool, and damn I want this!!

7/8. Syphon Filter 2/3. They've released the first one, these are coming too. Once thought as a MGS-ripoff, it's become it's own great franchise in it's own right.

9/10. Twisted Metal 1/2. Well, I think we'll be seeing a next gen Twisted Metal this gen. Hopefully a calaboration of Santa Monica/Eat sleep play studios, now that Incognito has been dissolved. Destructable environments, next gen graphics, 32 player online, voice chat=win.

11/12. Wild ARMS 1/2. They have one or two on the japanese store, I hope they release them over here.

13. Legend of Dragoon. THE BEST JRPG on the PS1, even better than Final Fantasy. The legend of dragoon team is working on an unrevealed game called "Angel Rings" and damn if legend of Dragoon wasn't epic, I dunno what was.

14. Crash Team Racing. The equivelent to Mario Kart may have not been as good, but was freaking awesome anyways!! I WANT THIS NAO!

As far as updates go for these games, just make the ones that are mutliplayer-multiplayer compatible (Crash 1 isn't on PSN currently). Also, when the rumble controllers come out, make games be rumble compatible. And, before the games come out, just fix the AA and make them upscaled.

And some Third Party games which I want sony to get developers to put up on the Playstation Store.

1/2/3. Resident Evil 1-3

4. MGS1

5.Silent Hill 1

6.. Parasite Eve

7.. Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver

Integrate Paypal into PSN
Allows me to schedule electronic check on a monthly schedule to pay bills on time.
Put 10 ps1 game ontoPSN per week.

Bring out the MGS Anniversary Pack to the US.

8, Blu-Ray movies in 720p, has already been added in an update.

Also, I can't believe no one has mentioned being able to continue downloading a demo/etc. while playing a game. As it stands, the downloading stops whenever you play a game or use @Home, something the 360 doesn't have a problem with.

here, all save you all the trouble. just say, why dont you copy xboxlive. that simple. proven and tested.

Demos continue downloading while playing PS3 games, as long as you're not online. :|

Well the reason why they can't just throw any PS1 game on the Store, is because they have to make sure they can make it work on PS3. That;s why they took those games off, was because it was'nt working.jdogthebomb09

still shouldn't be that hard. Nintendo has been spitting out games on the Virtual Console like nobody's business... and they have to alter the game in order for it to run on the Wii. since the PS3 can play PS2 and PS1 games, all Sony has to do is have the files of the PS1 game to run off of the HDD instead of a CD.

PSN is not dead slow.

However one thing that's really important is more media content support.

along with Custom soundtracks

Oops, I had only ever tried it with @Home, which does get online. :D

well said.. that was a great list..

btw i loved sylphoon filter 2. it was my favorite game for ps1.

Damn... Either start sending $50 a year to sony or stop whining. PSN can't simply have all that, especially at this point in time, for free!!! It's possible PSN will get most of that eventually for free but it'll take time, maybe a year from now or so...munu9

Valve's Steam service would like to say hello. :)

and as an X360 owner... paying for Live is a complete rip. while i'm sure that paying for the service allows for faster downloads and maybe more demos, the idea of charging to use a store so that i can then be charged for the actual content that i want is a bit off. its equivalent to having to pay for iTunes (not their content... but to just download iTunes itself).

not to mention that Marketplace is not even advertisement-free.

Downloads also continue while you use F@H (ummm which 360 can't do :P)

Also, XMB does have folders, I have several photo and music folders. However, you can't create them in the XMB and that would be nice.

I'd like a AIM Client, Team Speak, Ventrillo, Skype.. some way to talk to my PC friends.

Beyond that maybe a better inferface to PSN similar to the XMB.
