Even custom soundtracks, presumed to be available, since the entire XMB was opened from within a game, haven't made the cut unless the game you're playing supports the feature. Wouldn't it be simple enough to let music play as if you're doing something such as browsing the internet or viewing photos, and allow the player to turn down the volume of the in-game music manually, at the very least? It would have been nice to have had this feature at least, especially since a few games already support custom soundtracks by themselves; it can't be too hard to implement, one would have thought..."
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

if it was the patent that prevents them from doing ingame xmb access to music ????
It's cool that I get to message people from different games now, but I was really hoping for something a little bit better as far as custom soundtracks are concerned. I mean ... if the developer has to implement it, what has really changed with the update? Burnout has had custom soundtracks for a while because of the developer.
I'm happy about streamlining the store further.
I'm happy about trophy support as I want to play some of my old games again. I just hope developers patch their games soon.
i thought we all knew that to get ingame music.... the game in question would have to be patched... i wouldn't think its as simple as pressing the ps button and magic... you can play music on games released prior to 2.4
pain has ingame music by the way, its got patched
ur using a custom made theme, so there is absolutely no support for new icons because ur using something made from somebody who has almost 0% to do with sony
I was really hoping you could just play music in-game, just like you can when you are viewing photos or browsing the internet. As a standard, with games not needing patching.
In my view 2.4 puts down the framework - but there is still a lot more to do.
One of his complaints about the icons is actually totally invalid. He's using a custom theme that was not made with those icons (since they didn't exist at the time it was made). If he uses the default theme or even the newer Sony made themes (PSN Theme) the icons will be there. It's been this way anytime something new was introduced into the XMB and it will stay this way until the theme creator gets updated with the new icons It's ridiculous that something so trivial would even get metioned.
