Playstation 3 Firmware 2.40 Walkthrough Video Part 1: The XMB

[Vampyr]

Eh, I've always felt like Sony plays the "Me Too" game with features like this. In a lot of cases they do it better, but only because they worked on it a few years longer. It some cases they just throw it out as fast as possible, like the gyro controller. I don't see very many truly unique things coming from them.

You say they're better than achievements, but Live has had those forever. You've been waiting since launch for this, but Xbox did have it at launch.

I'm not anti Sony or anything, I own a PS2 and I'd have a PS3 if I had the money, but I'm not about to sing praises or act like they did something cool when they mostly just copied and enhanced existing technology. It's a nice feature and I'm glad PS3 gamers are getting it, but it's a little annoying to hear people act like Sony has done something incredible.

Not that their the only ones, though, I think Sony and Microsoft are both copying the Mii system with some upcoming software. Which is good, technology is meant to be shared and adapted, but it's also going to be annoying when those come out and people act the same way, and Sony and Microsoft present them like it was their idea, much like that guy in this video is acting like Sony invented the first ever Trophy system.
