Wow..I don’t know what is worst…xbox fanboys or ps fanboys whining.
Your precious XMB in-game is COMING. BE PATIENT. You want a buggy version or stable one?
If you can’t wait, then sell your PS3 and get an Xbox360 and pray you will never encounter the RROD.
@45 consoleboi
Well said, if you wanna see the worst that a fanboy can be, goto neogaf, there is a tread about ingame XMB, some games when you access the ingame XMB doesnt pause the game.
So neogaf have like 30-40 postets whinning about that. come on ,just press the damn pause button !!!!!
postets == posters
Please tell the PSPS fans you have some more PSP exclusive games that will hit soon, or be announced soon for the Platform. We need more games!
Only the last 5 games released take full advantage of the PSP systems memory and Graphics specs and bring the PSP games to PS2 level graphics. Please for the love of god announce some more hard core PSP games! I know you wan’t to appeal to a brawder market but the major reason the Nintendo DS is loseing sales is because they lack good hardcore third party, and first party games.
IMHO the more games like God of War, and WipEout: Pulse the better, as well as the more RPGs, and online games the better. The PSP has some great graphics it’s time to get the developers at Sony working on more then R&C, and Cheap Japanese odd ball games.
We need some great harcore games, maybe some new game lines to appear under the PSP exclusive flag. IE SWBF:RS was great, R&C rocked, GOW:CO rocked even more. How about some more great PSP only games from Sony, or third parties? The PlayStation Brand needs exclusives!
@ everyone saying “XMB IS COMING JUST CALM DOWN”
Since when did XMB become a black bag op? To where Sony cant even tell the fans that bought their 600 dollar game system that its at least on their mind.
Its completely disrespectful to just ignore the issue DAILY. People get more responses about Eye of Judgment obscure questions, than questions that come up every single blog.
Simple as:
“Hey guys, we know the demand for XMB is very high. Currently we are working out the final bugs and tweaks for it to provide you with the best product. No release date is available just yet!”
And the ENTIRE internet would shut up about the issue.
Millions of Fans would be fine with not only information, but being acknowledged as a paying customer.

Should be the easiest stuff for Sony to comment on. People don’t want to know the ins and out, people would love to not be ignored.
I would love to know how everyone thinks Jeff has some knowledge we don’t have already about 2.4 firmware or PSN cards.
You guys brother him on a daily basis about these things when obivously he does know about it until almost we do, maybe he gets the info 4 hours before us, but still not any faster then us.
All desisions probably come out SCI Japan for anything related to Sony based products, so in all likely hood he does not know anymore then us.
I love how your comments here on blog posts always now get off topic and focus on in-game XMB, Firmware 2.4, or PSN Cards and then you bug poor old Jeff.
Jeff wheres my PSN cars, Jeff wheres my firmware update, Jeff wheres my girlfriend???
Leave the man alone, I don’t think Jeff has anymore powers over knowing when a firmware update is coming to when a product will arrive unless he is told. Jeff runs this blog that seems to be it, you would have more luck asking Dave Jaffe when 2.4 is coming out, why because he would straight tell you its coming when its ****ing done and not soon. Maybe blunt language is all the kids know now of days.
Yeah, Jeff has nothing to do, Jeff is not SCEJ where (i think) the OS is developed.
Jeff is so cool that he is American and play soccer, the true king of sports.
Wich by the way is the real Football.

Yeah tell the Battlefield: Bad Company developers they hit a home run with that demo, and will have major support on the PS3! BTW if you could tell them to get a similer game on the PSP system as an exclusive, last but not least tell them they have to support the PS3! No more of this lets release a game on all platforms, and then only support two versions of it!
For the love of god get them to support the PS3 version! IE like what they did with Burnout: Paradise. DLC, PS3 patches that fixed the PS3 problems, as well as problems on both consoles, Patches that make both versions better and at the same time equal!
Know if anything on MGS4 will be posted today as MGSMonday
or is that over
@ Jeff
thanks for the info. great job!
how about them Phillies? possible world series appearance? PHILLY ALL DAY EVERYDAY!
@ all
dont you think he (jeff) knows what ppl write in blogs about in game xmb?! huh? he just doesnt want to talk about it. its coming one of these days or month when sony feels like the wait is over. its a business of numbers, which means once in game xmb comes as a download more people are going to buy ps3 and sell or trade in their xbox. lets be honest, mircosoft is only good for software… ex. windows.. is windows needed to run a pc?? NO! its an organizer of apps and files. I wonder why mircosoft has made a PC yet? because hardware isnt their forte. Sony’s hardware is too powerful, which is good.
when in game xmb does become available SONY is going to need some shades because all they’re going to see is bright green $$$$$$$$$$$$$ $_$
almost forgot…
psn: WEAPON20X
Cod4, haze, mlb 08 da show, madden 08, gta4

Few days away from MGS4…WOW! i can’t wait…
Also very exited for Resistance 2.
Haha, no firmware reads?
I’ll just echo what everyone else is saying.
A BUNCH OF STORIES ON IN-GAME XMB! :D
It’s still on for tommorrow, right? :P
stange we didnt get a new blog today… could it be_____ 2morrow???
