Official statement about update 2.00

+ Posted by Eric Lempel // Director, PlayStation Network Operations

"Hi everyone. Here's a preview of the next PLAYSTATION 3 firmware update (2.00) scheduled to release within the next few days. This update contains features that will allow you to receive news directly from us on everything PlayStation, enhance the way you access and organize your media, and allow you to customize your XMB in new ways.

Here's a closer look at the new features:

You'll notice this icon in the Network category of the XMB. This is the Information Board.

Once activated, you'll notice scrolling headlines in the upper right-hand corner of your screen. We'll be delivering the latest news on new games, PLAYSTATION Store updates, hardware, accessories and lots more through the Information Board. Click on the Information Board icon and you'll be able to see all of the headlines and click through for more detail. The headlines and associated stories will be updated on a regular basis. You can choose not to display the Information Board, but you never know what you might miss, so I'd recommend keeping it on.

We've added a nice enhancement to Remote Play called Remote Start, to use Remote Play locally or from a Wi-Fi hotspot, you needed to make sure that your PS3 was on. With Remote Start this is no longer necessary. As long as your PS3 is in standby mode, you'll be able to turn your PS3 on remotely via the PSP. You can then use Remote Play to access media on your PS3, and when you're finished you can put your PS3 back into standby mode.

Another feature we've added with this update is the ability to set themes on your PS3. Themes will change the whole look of your XMB; the background, icons, and in some cases sounds on your XMB will completely change. We will be providing themes on PlayStation.com and through the PLAYSTATION Store. Once you have downloaded a theme, under Settings go to Theme Settings, select Theme and then choose a theme to display or install a new theme. We are also providing the ability for you to get creative and make your own original themes.

We've also added a new way to organize your photos and music on the PS3 - you can now create custom playlists for all of your music and photos.

Finally, regular readers of this blog may have noticed that I'm using a new avatar. You will see that logo above on your XMB representing the new PLAYSTATION Network category. You'll find the PLAYSTATION Store and Account Management in this category.

We've added several other features in this update. I'll soon be back with more details with a quick video demo of some of the new features.

As always thanks for all of your support and feedback."

While it's easy to be disappointed with the lack of in game XMB, to be fair, it was us, the gamers and the media, who hyped all of these features that Sony never once said were coming in 2.0, like in game XMB and custom soundtracks.

Oh well, Sony knows we all want it so hopefully they are doing all they can to bring it, and fast because it's very much needed. Perhaps they have a surprise for us around the one year anniversary of the launch of the PS3 which is days away?

Here we go with that false hope again.:P

Agree. it was us (read us and media) who created the rumor, and it was us that believed on it...

Let's not forget the G.A.P. members survey.

"Choose which XMB
(Cross Media Bar) feature
would be most important
to you in a possible PLAYSTATION®Network update:

A) In-game access to PSN messaging
B) Ability to play my own music from the XMB while in-game
C) Larger buddy list and buddy-list features such as categorizing"

I still believe...

ITS NOT THE COMPLETE LIST FOR EXAMPLE WHERE IS THE NEW BLURAY UPDATE? TRUST ME WE DO GET THE IN-GAME XMB ITS A SURPRISE (I REMEMBER WHEN 1.92 CAME OUT AND U COULD OF NOW CHECKED UR MESSAGES WHILE ON INTERNET BUT SONY DIDNT RELEASE THAT INFORMATION ON ITS PRESS RELEASEmaksumic

I agree. Where is the update for Profile 1.1??? Sony told us not long ago that this update was coming soon, and to think that its not in the 2.00 feels weird...

"This guy is just another hater hiding behind pseudo made up science and anonymity. There are no memory size problems at all with the PS3 if you know how to code for it. It has exactly the same amount of memory as the 360. In fact there is less of a strain on the PS3s memory because it can cache to the hard drive. Why do all these so called experts always forget about that?

The FACT remains that the PS3 is more powerful which is why Microsoft will not allow the 360 to essentially be bench marked against it in Folding@home. PS3 games are already at the same graphical level as the 360.

This statement really sums up what an idiot this guy is:

"All it will take is one REALLY good game, yet to come, on the PS3, with exceptional graphics and very heavy scripting, and it will absolutely bring that machine to its knees.""

"Really? What like Ratchet & Clank did? Its also funny how Oblivion which is one of the most technically demanding games on any platform runs better on the PS3 than the 360."
