PS3 Firmware 2.70 features LEAKED!???!?!

Veteran Gametrailers forum user, Neobara has said this. Is it true? seems almost too good to be, but i have a feeling its true. lets hope :)


Okay, GT, i lurk these boards a lot so i'm going to throw you a bone. Take it or leave it. Anyway, A friend of mine works in an R&D department at Sony and recently let me in on the firmware details for 2.7. If you were disappointed with 2.6, you'll probably like what you're about to hear, but it's still missing some very crucial (and heavily requested) features. Here's a list of the things he told me will be changed:

Friends List:
- Voice Messaging is now available as an alternative to text after selecting a user on the friends list. Voice message recordings are capped at 30 seconds.
- Home Integration: Saved Playstation Home avatar photos can be selected as photo ID for Gamer Card/Friends List.
- Trophy number and Gamer Level are listed under Friend names for quick reference.

Gamer Card & Trophies:
- Gamer Card layout has been changed to more closely resemble the Playstation Store aesthetic.
- Past Trophy information can be viewed in detail by selecting "Recent Trophy History" option.
- Newly aquired trophies auto-sync in the background
- Server infrastructure for Trophies has been optimized. Resulting in faster retrieval time for Gamer Card and Trophy information.

In-Game XMB:
- Loading time for In-Game XMB has been drastically reduced, resulting in a more seemless in-game experience.
- "Theme settings" options while in-game is now available, allowing custom themes to be applied to the In-Game XMB.
- Internet Browser can now be accessed while in-game.
- Voice messaging and voice chat options can be used while in-game.
- Options that cannot be used in the XMB during game sessions are grayed out (but still selectable) to eliminate user accessibility confusion.

Misc:
- Other slight UI tweaks and enhancements.

Seems like there is still no word on cross-game invites, but i think the integration of Home (as small as it is) into the rest of the Playstation experience is still a step in the right direction. The update is pretty big but he said it would hit sometime in Q2 of '09.

TWO BIG DEMOS: Killzone 2 and Halo Wars



Today Halo Wars and Killzone 2 both saw demos in the Xbox live Market place and PS Store, respectively. Killzone 2 was a short and sweet demo. Lots of action and amazing shooting, slower than cod4, but more realistic in that field, how can you run with an LMG like in CoD4? lol. Halo Wars Demo it also supposed to be amazing and carries a 1.4 GB dl size.

Resident Evil 5 Demo Impressions


RE:5 Demo hit the 360 marketplace a week ago, and PS Network yesterday. How was it? IT WAS TERRIBLE. This is not next-gen. Messed up controls, like really, really messed up. You can't move and shoot at the same time? You have to zoom when you shoot? Your character moves like he has no toes, at the speed of a friggen turtle, how can he be a special op? Okay maybe the game is pretty, but really, it has terrible controls and is messed in the head :S go try it yourself, you will agree
