Sony unveils new PSN Store

via Computer and Video Games


No, these are NOT another 14-year-old's attempts to fool the internet. Sony has finally officially revealed the first shots of the new PlayStation Store overhaul to come in April.

Here's the full official scoop:

This April, PLAYSTATION Store, the online content store on PLAYSTATION Network, is getting a whole new look and feel - and it's in response to feedback from the millions of PSN registrants in the PAL region.

The revamp comes in response to a survey last year which showed that many PLAYSTATION Store users wanted a better interface and easier navigation. The new design will deliver a hugely improved navigation system, much greater scope for categorisation and a dynamic new user interface.

Content will be suspended for two weeks while the improvements are carried out but users can look forward to a special update in mid-April.

There will be no weekly content updates between now and the re-launch, although users can still download content from the back catalogue, such as Warhawk and Gran Turismo 5 Prologue.

The PLAYSTATION Store revamp will not affect PLAYSTATION Network accounts or the virtual wallet system.

WHY NOT USE THE XMB YOU DUMB BASTARDS!!!

*sigh*....

^^^ Why dont your post something intelligent? Just a thought.

Good on sony. At least it **shows** them listening to their customers. I cant wait to see what the new PSN store will look like.

No, if they listen they would intergrate with XMB.

XMB is the PS3's biggest tool, and they dont use it like they could.

New store = shit.
