Need to see what’s coming in the latest update – some great new features if you ask me…

  • What’s New – The “Information Board” will be replaced with a “What’s New” section, which allows you to enjoy interactive PlayStation news every time you start the PS3 system.
  • Status Indicator – In the top right corner we’ve added an indicator bar, which displays your user icon, friend icon, the number of friends you have online and a small message icon to let you know if you have any new messages.
  • Friends List – Now your PlayStation Network friends will appear in a slightly redesigned format on your Friends List.
  • PlayStation Store Shortcuts – We’ve added a handy shortcut icon to the PlayStation Store under both the Game and Video categories so you can access the latest content quickly and easily.
  • Personalization – Personalize your PS3 with new dynamic custom themes and avatars.
  • Trophies – Showcasing your hard earned trophies just got better.
