Will Sony EVER get around to pleasing music lovers?

Okay here are two of my biggest issues with the PS3--at least ONE of which I thought would surely be fixed by now, since the 360 actually launchedwith both,

1. You can't listen to your music while browsing XMB.

2. You can't listen to custom soundtracks while playing games.

What's Sony stance on these issues? What are they even doing with the PS3 in general? Don't care for Home at all

Only certain games have the feature; it's developer dependant, not Sony.

And your name... it.. it irks me.

It would be to hard for them to go to every mans house and....

Yes yes good idea i would love to have music play during our gaming time

Ummm, Are you sure about that? Cause it works on my PS3.

My biggest complaint is it doesn't have true Ipod support to read the mp3s right. If sony were to make a virtual Ipod or some type of virtual music playing device that you could pop up by pressing xmb button a certain way that would be awesome. Instead of bringing up xmb you would also be able to bring up a virtual player

At first I thought #2 would be cool, but it's actually not that good. I used to use it for SSHD and it was good for that, but even for like shooters like KZ2 and stuff it' doesnt make it any better. Plus the way M$ does it is patented so Sony can't do it the same way unless they code some different way or something. #2 isn't a big deal even people with 360's hardly use it.

This thread is completely pointless... install Linux and it's gg.

I wish every person who values #2 as a gaming staple would just stop gaming all together. Symphonycometh

Um why would you wish that? it allows alot of people (CERTAINLY ME) to get more out a game, especially if it has a crap soundtrack.

you can do number 1, and number 2, soem games have it like killzone 2, but the reason sony cant make it like xbox , is cause micrsoft patented universal music, or thats what i've heard form this forum

I listen to my awesome custom playlist while I play Burnout Paradise, Super Stardust, Wipeout HD, Supersonic Battle-cars, and 4 others. It's upon the game devs to make it work. I think Sony should make it mandatory.

You ever thought of racing games, or sports games for this feature? Fools are sitting here assuming people want to drown out Snakes voice in the single player campaign with Lil' Wayne or something. That elitist way of thinking is just asinine.

You do know you can listen to your own tracks on killzone 2 online( and skirmish).

I 100% understand that a game developer who spent 1000s $ on music for their game don't care much on putting an option on their game so that the players don't listen to it ...

About the X360, as Microcrap believe they'r the center of the world, it's the X360 that bypasses the game and allows the player to listen to what they want, so the game developers didn't have any word to it and can't prevent it. Sony (who is a music publisher, don't forget it) is just respectful of music rights and lets the option to the game developers to implement this option or not.

As the consumer I would like the option of not listening to the potentially garbage and definitely redundant soundtrack in a sports game, or racing game. For me I can get more immersed when I am listening to my favorite music.

Besides, I have already bought the game, so the royalties are already taken care of, the game designers don't get any less money if I don't listen to the music.

i guess theyre working on it but i really need to listen to music for all the games

I find while playing online,

listening to metal really makes me do better, in like KZ2, warhawk, resistance ect..

I mean music in games is supposed to create a mod! Imagine, you going in a dramatic scene and you are listening to some heavy metal? Or a Highly adrenaline pumped scene and you are listen to some Country Music....

In-game music is only good in only, nothing more, nothing less.

legally due to microsoft they cant make it neccesary for developers to do it

they need to get on it asap, i can't stand the crappy music of burnout paradise

pixel junk monster demo without custom music= F

pixel junk monster demo with custom music= C

you see ppl, having the option to play ur own music in games makes them more better. Warkhawk online demo has it and without the in game music feature, i dont see myself platying capture the flag all day

Uh huh, well let people think what they want.

It doesn't change the fact that all you have to do is turn on your iPod or stereo.

Instead of sitting around a forum complaining about it, you'd think some of these people would actually be trying to fix it.
