Firmware 3.0 question.

I just want to get an idea of what people think of this question:

If firmware 3.0 contained the much needed Cross-Game Chat and XMB Party System where people can chat up to 8 people no matter what game they are playing, would there be all this criticism about the other features that 3.0 provided?

Jinxstar6095d ago

Simply put. "Yes". 360 fans will bash it. PS3 fans will have one more notch over them. Seems kinda obvious to me...

Mc1876093d ago

I think there would be less whining.

jhooty146093d ago

and my damn uncharted freezes too with it!

Digitaldude6092d ago

Yeah but TBH its not needed as much as everything thinks it is.

JackBNimble6089d ago

I personally would hope that if and when crossgame chat does come that it would be optional.I don't want nor do I need this feature ,I am satified with how we can communicate on the PS3.

I would be happy to see it for the other ps3 users as long as I am not forced into having it.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit18d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing18d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9218d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
