The PS3 and PSP had the same XMB and it really felt like they were a pair and meant to be owned together. I never understood why the physical layout on the PS4 and Vita changed so dramatically and differed so wildly from each other

[@MegaRayland]

Simple: the XMB was designed for a different interface than the PSVita (touchscreen) and, to an extent, PS4 (touchpad). The XMB UI may have been a bit more visually pleasing than the bubble design for the Vita but it would not have worked well as a touch interface. On the other hand the current PS4 design is basically what you implied: a new design for a new generation. After all the basics of the XMB are still there but now in a more efficient, responsive, and visually impressive evolution of it.

[@berka05]

PSX had that xmb before PS3 and PSP

[@Let-Me-B]

Don't forget the PSX DVR

[@legitcrimzon3712]

it might be because Mark cerny took over idk

[@itsOGP]

Too answer your question in depth, Ken Kutaragi the creator of the PS1, PS2 and original PS3 left the company right after his release and sadly so did all his creativity and influence. When he stepped down from CEO/Chairman the PlayStation “Network” changed as a whole. He was the head of not only production but also the SEN which is the Network bracket for Sony gaming. Basically a new boss(es) was in town n’ everything changed 😔

Something about seeing one of the older models brought me back to Christmas of '06. My parents really just shelled out and got my brother and me a PS3 each, and it started a huge snowball. I ran my 1st Gen to the ground, playing it almost every day until 2010. Around maybe August, it finally got the YLOD. And within 6 months I had worked my way to a new one by getting some under the table field jobs. To this day, the PS3 is the only console I've made a point to stick by all these years. And seeing videos really showing the older updates makes me so happy. Such a fantastic console, and moreover, such a strange console. There's not gonna be another console quite as nice, yet very stupid for a long, long time. Also fuck the new store. I miss that beautiful 2.30 store so much, especially the search function that's actually stomachable.

You know what I find sad? My Atari 2600 is going on 40 years and barring any technical problems, it will still play all the games ever released for it and do all the things it did on the day I got it. Yet in another 10-20 years or so, once support for the PS3 has been discontinued, it will be in much worse shape. Say you want to replay one of your favorite games, so you buy a PS3 and a copy of the game. Oops, the whole game isn't on the disc, you're supposed to go online and download the missing parts, but the PS3 is no longer compatible with the latest version of the PSN and even if it was, that game wouldn't be there any more. Ok, let's try another game that comes entirely on the disc. Hmm, why is it glitching? Oh right, that was fixed in a patch that could only be obtained online. OK, this game is the fully patched version. Hey, where's that other game mode that I used to enjoy playing? Oh, I forgot that was DLC that's no longer available and even if I had a backup of it, I wouldn't be able to restore it to this new console... Now game companies want to make entire game libraries download-only, and subject to the same planned obsolescence. And this is considered progress,,,

However you can download all the updates games patches from computer and install it from USB to PS3 harddrived. Not a problem.

Can you please elaborate on that? Is there an official way to download and archive the patches on a computer, or are you referring to piracy and/or something fans have done? Can the same be done for DLC?

OK, thanks. To be honest, I really don't know much about the PS3. I was given one, but haven't really used it.

I was going to buy a copy of Burnout Paradise until I discovered that there was no retail copy that included all the content. I don't know if the DLC for it is still available.

Sony should reboot and sale the PS3 60 GB with retro compatibility. That was the best console ever.

I still have that 60GB model. I upgraded the hard drive to 640GB (not a typo).

[@LoneBraixen]

I haven't had much exposure to the PlayStation ecosystem, but I have to admit, I like how consistent Sony is with their XMB design. It annoys me that there are several major, drastically different versions of the Xbox 360 dashboards, each of which look like entirely separate consoles to the original blade dashboard. XMB did have changes, but at least it is still recognizably PlayStation. Even the PS4's XMB looks closer to the PS3's first firmware than the 360 or One does to the 360's first firmware

[@taegire]

Ps4 went backwards by not allowing external hard drives to be read. Unlike ps3 where I could connect a hard drive full of torrents movies and watch them on the system

[@insertnamehere001]

I don't think many people know but the sparkles on the XMB actually move with the throws of your sixaxis controller. And also that the XMB changes colour (darker-lighter) depending on the time of day.

[@Joshjames1234]

Dang, what a flash back! Such a shame the PS4 never supported local media storage. And I had NO idea that the PS3 had a VIDEO EDITOR and supported printers...LOL

[@caraandmalik2108]

The original PS3 is my favorite as I get to play PS1 and PS2 games as backwards compatibility

[@steventechno]

Back in the day I used to love messing with the "Other OS" feature which allows running desktop operating systems. I ran Ubuntu and other distros. YDL anyone? Unfortunately as we know there were limitations, (RAM, framebuffer rendering, PPC arch) but it was still cool running a full desktop interface on a console. Later updates (PS3 slim era) canned the feature. RIP. (PS4 never had any cool stuff like that, mods and hacks are required to run Linux.)

[@cdock]

I miss when you would load up a game and that "Playstation 3" text with the spiderman font would pop up and make that little jingle

[@ZeroThe2nd]

For a black XMB, you can set your colour to dark blue, then head over to the wallpaper brightness settings and yank it down low. That gets you as close as possible.

so close to 5.0. they should have supported it a little longer and just gone balls to the wall with 5.0. idk what they could do to it but seriously just something off the wall lol. the ps4 as well should do something crazy for it next big .0 update.

[@gabor3432]

They could have added full support for the DS4 controller. Well it works with the PS3, but only with cable (wireless mode doesnt work with 90% of the games i tried) and the playstation button doesnt work, so you still need a DS3 to exit to the xmb...

[@ReceitaFederal2]

@@gabor3432 Dude, I played from 2014 till 17 with DS4 wireless on my ps3 and it always worked exactly like with cable in all the games I tried (RdR, GTA V, GTA IV, TLoU, F1 games, Pes games, Cod's, GoW games) The only annoying missing feature that I notticed is that the PS home button does not work (but this happens with or without cables)

[@robertthomson1994]

@@ReceitaFederal2 right, it works all the time with just about every game with a cable. I prefer it over my ds3 controllers when playing on my ps3. I do wish the home button worked also. Ratchet and clank games don't work with it for some reason and neither do any Telltale game I've played on my ps3 this year.

[@ryans413]

No one talks about the PS3 being able to rip CDs to the hard drive always thought was cool. And the 360 could do that with games i was kinda hoping Sony would allow that but I guess the games where to big

They could've done a update to let you turn hdcp off like ps4 so people can easily record games.
