Who's excited for next friday?!

I'm gonna be honest, next friday is all I'm thinking about. Why...because of the 1.6 firmware upgrade was announced to come out on that day, and what will we get (or likely get):

- Folding@Home Project (which is going to boost rep. for the PS3)

- Background downloading (we really need this, and it will have auto-resume)

- Ability to change wallpapers

- Game disk startup: ONOFF option

- DVD Upscale to HD

- PS2PS One upscale to HD

- Fixed Blu-Ray disk problems (pausing randomly for a couple seconds)

- Fixed controller problems (disconnecting, turning randomly, etc.)

- Better multitasking (so we can msg people while were in a game, or listen to music while playing a game)

- I think they'll add "Coming Soon" to the playstation store, because it shows a pic of that on www.us.playstation.com 

- More avatars

- Enable WMA

- More visualations options

- Renamemake your own folders (for music, vids, etc.)

And thats about it, possibly more that sony will surprise us with...and also I think we'll have a Lair demo by then, along with some new trailers of games, and possibly a killzone trailer. Also we'll probly have that Resistance Update that we were supposed to get by then, to get more online game modes. And were even getting the europe launch, which doesn't effect anyone in US or Canada or Japan...but it will because we all want PS3 to rise up to the top again, and sell 6 million units by the end of march like sony promised, and get back in the market, and the europe launch will help sony do that.

And one more thing, i also got a hall party on friday so that just makes everything better(H) loll...post comments on what you think!

DVD upscale is unlikely to be on next friday.

PS2/PS upscale is also unlikely to be on next friday, they'll want them to work correctly with the emulation first and then later add upscale (only what i think)

Better multitasking most probably, but i don't think music while in game nor msg

About the rest i don't know

I wish Sony did a better job at informing their consumers, because this thread is a classic example of setting yourself up to be disappointed. It was rumored that Mortal Kombat 2 was supposed to be released yesterday and when it didn't come out, we now have 2 million angry fanboys. Don't let me get started with the March 8th B.S.

So unless Sony says something is coming out next friday, please kill the thread.

i would really like the controller issues to be fixed, because while playing motorstorm sometimes my guy will continue to drive straight even though im turning to the side my controller stops responding for around 5 secs every once and awhile.etbny22
