A user by the name of Scorchio posted a thread on the PlayStation.com forums with some ideas on how to improve Firmware 3.0. I think this guys work is really good, and frankly, I think this is how Firmware 3.0 should have looked in the first place. Here are some concept images...

The original post can be viewed here.

Why not? We get hundreds of threads in here about the 360 and Wii, so I don't see why it can't be posted in System Wars.

Totally off topic man, but is that gamercard in your signature real? If so, how the hell did you manage to get ODST so early? :P

um...no...because the blades system and NXE look nothing like XMB yet the XMB is evolving and psn as a whole to copy and be just like xbox live, and NXE. As per the topic, the reason the XMB doesn't look as the person we are talking about made it look is because the ps3 cant handle it.

I am guessing you do not have proof for that last statement. Voice chat is on its way and lemmings said the XMB could not handle it. There goes another idea.

PS3 is such a weak console. We can ignore Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, MGS4, and the other games. PS3 is too weak to handle its own menu. You know, I can make a PSN id from playfire. And from viewing your old posts, your not a PS3 owner at all. :roll:

So because already over cluttered with off topic threads that are clearly and blatantly in the wrong forum, we should clutter it with even more off topic threads that are clearly and blatantly in the wrong forum? The mods need to do a better. There quick to mod you for doing something that might offend a 5 year old, but when it comes to making sure the forum isn't a total and complete mess, they don't do anything.

Do you know how long this would take to load? I mean to even "compare trophies" it takes 3 hours just to sync. PSN is slow, and by the time I am done downloading everything (and you download a LOT in PSN), I am begging Sony to charge me $50 a year to improve their service.

It takes like 20 minutes for everything to load on PSN, the "Demo installing" stuff is annoying, you have to download everything, re-install everything... it's so long, complicated, pointless... seriously PSN makes me glad MS charges for Xbox Live.

Not really. It takes too long that's for sure. Way too long. And then PSN is like install/download heaven. Seriously. Just to start Home you have to do 64 installs, download 40325042352395623495 rooms and so much more stuff it's embarrassing.

In some ways, I actually agree with AHUGECAT. I know that he is a huge lemming, and I'm not a fanboy at all, but it wouldn't bother me if Sony started charging the same as XBOX LIVE per year because it also takes me absolute ages to do simple things like compare trophies compared to the speed at which XBOX LIVE loads stuff like that.

And syncing takes way too long and installing demos is a pain.

Well, unfortunately for you, and fortunately for me and people like me, they don't charge. When comparing trophies, it takes about 9 seconds for the trophies to load. So you're willing to pay for this? well M$ would love to have you as a customer.

That's how it should look but with the infinite loading times it takes to show the trophies a view like that will lag forever.
