Sony has stated that their going to be making some changes to PSN, and adding some features. So what would you like to see?

There's one that I want that really annoys me. When I get a message while playing a game, if I hit the middle button on my controller, I then have to go through the menu, find messages, click on received, then click on the message. Which is a real pain while playing games online. On Xbox Live when you get a message, you click the middle button and it opens up the message. I would like to see that implementedto PSN.

Also I would like to see a party chat system like Xbox live. So all my friends and be in the same chat room, while all playing different games. Or so you can talk to people while not in a game, and trying to get in the same game for example.

What about you guys?

  • Same as you, the message thing.
  • Ability to change our ID names
  • Cut out unusable icons from in game XMB to make it load faster.
  • Arrange trophies in a grid-like fashion so they're all on screen not in a long list.
  • Some sort of tracker for cumulative trophies (eg, "Eat 1200 pies", "kill 50 homeless people" etc)
  • Delete trophies from trials or games with 0%
  • Faster firmware updates or do away with installs after downloads
  • And of course, for PSN itself to be up would be just swell.

I'd like the feature of "Hackers can't just take all your personal info." That'd be a nice start.

PSX IMPORTS, ala Itunes. I understand they have Psone Classics available, but the ability to import all my old psone games unto the harddrive would be pretty sweet. It would also be a huge selling point for the NGP, if it had a "games/music/movies" interface with the ps3.

voice chat only so people can stop complaining about it (even though that won't stop them) chrome web browser also to stop people from complaining about it Customizable XMB like others have said Friend's list nicknaming, grouping and or comments field Auto trophy sync on shutting down system or during background downloading Multi-user logins

In game video chat and cross game chat would be great. But if I were a + member, I'd be pissed were those to be available to everyone. I wouldn't be surprised if Sony just gives everyone 3 free months of +, which I wouldn't be even the slightest bit interested in.

Uh, I doubt any PS+ members would be pissed about that, I know I wouldn't be. PS+ isn't a service that we subscribe to for additional features, it's a goods service.

i honestly dont understand about the whole message thing lol, i mean is it that hard to highlight the message inbox when ur in a game so when u press the psn button ur by the inbox already? it aint like u can do much with in-game xmb besides listen to music and check ur messages, right? and it aint that hard to find lol, but i guess i see what ur talkin about but i honestly dont care for it if they added that or not. the only thing i care about at the moment is to give us more option to use while in-game and using the xmb without it kicking u off the game and going to that option u chose.

*Ability to re-order and hide XMB icons.

*Customizable avatar and gamer card (color change is weak).

*Ability to appear offline when signed into PSN. I have no idea why the hell we can't do that.

*Cross game chat, but no pressure for it.

*Some type of filter for game invites to block people from inviting you to join a match in something you're not playing.

*A better web browser.

*More music player backgrounds, willing to pay for that ****.

I know alot of that stuff isn't necessarily PSN related but I want it in some updates soon.

Damn right. And if they don't allow more XMB functions during gameplay, how about hiding the crap you can't do during gameplay?

I'd love to be able to browse the store faster. Also the one about the messages in-game; one button to access the message would be nice. I also think they should put the Friends list somewhere apart from where it is now. Plus maybe a grid-based menu system will work out better. Having that long list for trophies is pretty hard to look through.

^^^^THIS. I hate when someone keeps sending me invites when I don't want to play with them. This feature would be awesome. Another one XBL has that the PSN doesn't. Thats why people with the 360 so much more, because It has so many different features that the PSN doesn't, and there worth paying for.

  • Better web browser
  • A notification system, kind of like facebook, which is if you don't realise a message there might be a red token on the message symbol in the XMB telling you

Seriously, why? Honestly, since this feature was added to Live, it has only hindered the actual gameplay communication. Everyone will have a mic, but they won't be talking within the given game.

Also a big NO to the people wanting the "invisible" online option. I like seeing when friends of mine are ALWAYS on so I can tease them.

As for me, there are two things I would change off the top of my head. Number one, web browser. PS3's web browser sucks. I'd compare that speed to dial up internet. It's insulting especially when this is the system that advertises itself as: It does only everything. It may do everything, but some things it does poorly, even if it still does it. Secondly, this isn't a serious one, but I don't like having my ps3 on for hours and hours waiting to download demos, videos, etc... On my xbox 360, I would que up demos, videos, etc.. and while stuff was downloading I would watch dvds to pass the time. However, when I try to download something off of psn and watch a dvd, I get disconnected. I want to do something while its still downloading. Just would be very helpful. I know you can watch videos from your hard drive while it still downloads, but would love to have that feature that is on xbox 360. I don't think it would be TOO difficult to incorporate.
