Definitely the in game music, in my 360 i play Forza with all my music being streamed from my PC, i would like to do that too with Gran Turismo when it comes out, thanks in advance Sony.

Also some sort of achievement points/trophy's or whatever, also stats of how much time you play all games.

You can already do that with a slim PSP and its TVout function.

Decent list though, a few things I want, some others I wouldn't mind.

Clock on the XMB though is suprisingly one I really want :p

Firefox can be used in Linux, but PS3 OS support would be good.

^But I only have the PSP-Fat :(

You lose! Oh wait, so I do have a PSP-Fat :(

However I will be getting a black slim eventually, want to rid of my fat white.

I would like to see ps3 emulate the psp and load UMD's via a psp connected to USB.

Change remote play so that I can copy etc from ps3 wirelessly

change remote play from being a crappy, laggy video stream and instead stream on an individual file basis.

I'm mainly waiting for the (imo) incredible games to come out... I mean, everything else is pretty nice, but I mainly want some more triple-A titles right now, that's what I got the thing for :p

Apart from that, it's just some minor things - a clock would be nice indeed, better status messages in the friends list, custom avatars etc.

Same here. I can honestly kind of care less about almost all of this other stuff. Besides in game messages and better integration with being able to play games with people on my friends list (which considering I do not even play that many hours a week I am not even considering them as necessity), all I want is the better games I know are on the way. I personally bought it to play games and Blu Rays, and that is all I care about.

FTR I may be the only person in the world who thinks Home is actually something that is a complete waste of time. I do not need an Avatar or an Apartment or any of that stuff, I honestly and truly do not. perhaps I will be blown away when it comes out and thing completely different of it once I see it in action, but I personally think that it is overkill and going way overboard. They should really have just copied Live as much as possible without infringing on anything and called it a day.

Heh, I totally agree.

These are things I would like to see, but I'm not actually 'waiting'

- in-game XMB (just about full XMB functionality from)

- sort contact and media by custom groups (aka: folders)

- log system (similar to the Wii) that tells you how much time you spent doing something

- a point/achievement system would be nice or at least a gamer tag that shows the last few games I've played (or currently playing)

I feel these things would just make the PS3 even more awesome - but I still <3 it :)

And a note on Home:

the only reason I'm looking forward to it is 'cause I feel that it will build up the PS3 community and will incorporate many features that some of us would like to see (trophy room? share media?)

Home

In Game XMB/Music

Playstation Store Movies via DivX

More music visualizers

Improved browser

Included HDMI or component cable would be cool

A new model with USB ports on the back or support for a wireless USB hub. That would be awesome.

A Flickr app would be awesome

A Skype app would be super special awesom

And a US TV tuner, but that's probably not going to happen. Damned Europeans! :D

My list is similar to one listed above, just with less features:

  • In-game XMB
  • Friends status
  • Custom avatars
  • Multi-protocol messenger (MSN, AIM, Jabber, ICQ, IRC blah blahh blah - or simply MSN which is what I use :p)
  • Clock in XMB
  • Have Folding@Home running while playing games or on the XMB. It's meant to be a mini-supercomputer, so push it to the limit!
  • Ability to play PSP games on PS3 - or atleast through the PS3 so you get the PSP picture on your TV screen
  • Heavier controllers (sounds odd, but the SIXAXIS weighs almost nothing, and it doesn't feel right)
  • Ability to control your computer through the PS3, or install Windows OSes onto the PS3.

In game XMB would be awsome. Stats like for the 360. Doesn't have to be exactly the same but something would be nice.

I think they are trying to make it kinda like an mmo where you just kinda... chill... I think the idea is to build a stronger community and sales will go up though word of mouth.

There are a few things I'm waiting for:

*In-game XMB

*Custom folders - being able to organize our media our way

*Gran Turismo 5

*MSN Messenger? Probably won't ever happen, but it would be really handy for me atleast.

*more games!

DirtyLarry, I completely agree with your feelings about Home. I've expressed it before too, and I will again. I definitely think Home is going to be like Lair. Over-hyped, and will not deliver.
