"The SDK 2.40 will be available to dev. late in June. The actual Firmware 2.40 might see the light of day a lot sooner (my personal guess would be launch aligned or slightly before MGS4 )."

This is PS3s big break

UPDATE:

there is in-game soundtrack thingy . so when u play u can put ur songs while playing

(i am saying this becuz 2 users probably didnt read the website and saying there is no in-game soundtrack)

"it's safe to say Sony is finally providing it's users with a better online community, nearing the quality of Microsoft's Xbox Live."

Yup, its good to be a ps3 owner......even better ours is free :) now if only we can watch movie while we play but why do we want that? (But still it would be cool)

i'm sorry but, i'm looking more forward to Burnout Cagney updates, and get GTA4, more than 2.40, i'm very very sorry it ain't worth it now its TOO LATE!!!jojo198

Gimme a break. XMB in-game access is a very needed feature, either it's out today or next year.

-*UPDATE*-:

it might come out b4 june 12. if it dose not its coming smewhere in june

WOOT!! cant wait for this Gran Turismo 5 is going to own with custom sound tracks.

joy to the world 2.40 is coming microsoft gonna start rolling heads what happen to their money

we flushed dwon tha potty and round and round it goes

"PS3 users can expect such features as universal friends lists and in-game messaging"

What do you think the feature "universal friends lists" is?? I want to be able to have more than the 50 friends limit.

With this, PSN will become XBL with less screaming 12 year olds in every game......

That = WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

amen.

For people saying there is music, devs have to patch it. Its included in the update but not all games will support it. I want an update where all games support it, no ands ifs or buts. Read this from Videogaming247:

"User music is only included in new development tools, which have only just been distributed to coders. Therefore, existing games won't utilize the feature unless they are patched to do so."

theycallmeryan

yeh but a lot of game will patch it especially if the game is still a big seller!

UPDATE:

Videogaming247 has obtained some new tidbits of information regarding the above story.

-Sony is currently shifting through the PlayStation 3's library of games in order to see if the XMB is fully compatible or not. It is expected the new menu system, in-game messaging etc will function in all games, though the current black menu screen will likely be retained for the majority of titles.

-User music is only included in new development tools, which have only just been distributed to coders. Therefore, existing games won't utilize the feature unless they are patched to do so.

-The same applies to the new trophy system; developers have only just obtained the tools necessary to input the feature into their software, so it'll be a while until they show up in games.

-Some elements of the XMB won't be usable in-game until after the next firmware update, such as the photo viewer. and i think its kind fake cuz weres the friends list and the playtion network icon thing

I am more excited about Home. But this features is more important than Home at the moment. I hope this isn't a wierd rumor. De_Bears

I agree, when home comes out we're all going to be blown away, we've waited so long and sony knows that, sony will not dissapoint, instead amaze. Home will be a true masterpiece.

i hope this means we can finally download something while playing a game.PK_3100

Yes, M$ is going to go bankrupt because of this...and lose ALL their exclusives. :roll: All because SONY is TRYING to match what the 360 has been doing since launch. Man..are these arguments ever going to end?

But yes, it will be sweet that the PS3 can do this. I really would like to mix in some of my own music during some games.

[QUOTE="PK_3100"]i hope this means we can finally download something while playing a game.wwedx

I could honsetly care less.

1. I hate being bothered while playing any game, so even with this feature I still wont be using it much.

2. I like listening to the music of games (Being a music producer myself), so playing other music while playing a game is a no go for me.

I work at the hospital at nights, paralegal in the day & weekends I'm booked for studio time. I work alot...it's wearing me out, but it's worth it in the long run.
