What good's a trade show without vague promises? Paul Purdy, repping Sony at CES, has done his part, "confirming" that an in-game XMB update for PlayStation 3 is due in the new year, reports TGR. When pressed for details, Purdy backpedaled and reaffirmed that Sony's CES presence was focused on hardware – hardware that, for the moment, lacks consistent multitasking features. (Let's not forget, some games already support the bells and whistles we'd hoped Sony would've included the last time a major update was pushed out.)

All I want to do is listen to music and message/invite my peoples while in game! C'mon Sony!
I mean with Blu-Ray closing in for the win, shouldnt they put their FULL attention to the PS3? Oh yeah, those OLED TVs look damn great too. Pricey though but thats Sony!

You can put "pico de gallo" o "salsa" or both in your tacos.

I wish they delay this a bit more. The PS3 already has it all (almost) - rumble, the most kickass games line-up ever in 2008, the winning disc format, superior server-based multiplayer thats works all the time and is free to boot, standard hard discs on all units (= no load times) and finally a console that doesnt die half the time - if Sony came out with in-game xmb and unified friends list as well the xbots on this site would commit suicide. Now we wouldnt want that would we?

This topic is boring. It's now about tacos.
Huh what it already is? I love refried beans, guacomole, and sour cream.

It's not even worth responding to. It's not even worth a Futurama quote about beige alert hello's. But I did respond not to increase my 4150+ comments but to say it currently doesn't affect since I currently do not own a PS3 but might in the future.

Poor poor Xbox Menu Button, all you can do is turn off stuff.

I'm so very glad idk ANY of you. The topic is PS3 XMB, and somehow we've gone from Fernando's fanboyish annoyingness ( :) ) to tacos. I have nothing else to say.

Hey! Relax man I know is political correct to bash Fernando but not the rest of the Mexican people.
Your comment seems pretty racist.

all i really need to do is be able to check messages or settings while im in a game. i dont need to go the whole XMB. maybe in game music. i think people are making too much of a deal out of it. just let me check my messages without leaving a game completely and ill be good. and i know it can be done since the launch title Resistance can already do it. im not going to type a message in the middle of an online match so it's fine just in the lobby.

This is so old news. In fact XMB bar functionality is already in place for Photo, Video, Music, and any streamed content. Only Games are missing it and some newer ones have it implemented. To be implemented sooner than later for the rest. Good news.

My last post is a link to a pic of someone having in-game xmb. Do take it with a grain of salt though for this is tagged as "Rumor" but it will give you an idea what it would look like when it comes out. I am a sony fan minus the childish trolling and bashing because you got a different system. Imagine soldiers dying in wars just to protect people fighting over a system and other stupid childish shit? Lol it seems like crips versus bloods versus some other illegal alien "i have no green card want to buy my orange shit going on here" lol no offence just making a point that it shows that until people grow up then we're just gonna have to kill each other. But not me and some of us here because they're just kids like fernando. oh my bad fernando is just still a fetus that has no brain. My bad he's not part of this country because his parents are in mexico and so poor they have to rebuild his mud house every once in a while thats why he goes back there. He is so poor that he cant buy a ps3 thats why he hates it.
