Shame they are only doing on xbox360 and PC. Not PS3
Only a month to go anywho.
And the SOCOM beta was awful. I played it twice. And the 2nd time was only to confirm how bad it was.

Didn't even think to check eurogamer. I've missed out on SOCOM and LBP beta tests. What didn't you like about the Socom beta?

:: PS3 UPDATES ::
PS3 (v2.50) update
Now on to the PS3 v2.50 update. The latest features/enhancements include:
Support for the PS3 Official Bluetooth Headset - we’ve told you about the upcoming Bluetooth Headset and SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation Bundle on the Blog. This latest firmware installment enables High-Quality (HQ) mode, which delivers clear and wide-band online voice chat. On top of that, an added on-screen indicator shows battery status, volume level and use of HQ mode.
- PlayStation Trophies interface enhancements - I know that many of you are busy collecting trophies and raising your PlayStation Trophy level. This update makes sharing and comparing your trophies with your friends even easier. On 1st part of the profile page you’ll see a symbol under level that represents level and the actual percentage towards the next level along with the existing level meter. The level symbol carries over to the trophy comparison screen where you will now be able to see your level, your friend’s level and the percentage towards the next level for both users along with all of the game by game comparison information you see today.
- Friend status – Offline friends on your Friends list will have information below their avatars that will indicate how long it has been since they were last online.
- Video – This update adds the Scene Search feature similar to the feature on the PSP. Activating this feature while viewing a video on the PS3 will break the video up into scenes that you can quickly access by pressing the X button. You can break the videos into one, two or five minute intervals. In addition, you can now choose to have all of the videos under the video section of the XMB play in sequence. Go to Settings then Video Settings to turn this option on.
- PlayStation Store – We’ve added a redeem codes option right on the store to make it easier to redeem your PlayStation Network Cards and promotion codes. In addition, PlayStation Network Sign Up and Account Management have been redesigned.
- Power Save Settings – You can now set your PS3 and wireless controllers to turn off automatically after set periods of inactivity. Go to Settings then Power Save Settings to turn on these features.
- Background Downloading - You now have the option to set the PS3 to turn off automatically after a background download or installation of content has completed. This option is available when you turn off the system from the button under [Users] while content is being downloaded or installed.
- In-game Screenshots - this tool will allow everyone to capture, share and in other words, immortalize their favorite gameplay moments. This will be supported on a game by game basis. Please check back to find out which games will support this feature.
- In addition to all of the features above there are some additional features and enhancements included in 2.50. Once the update launches, you can read all of the details here.
A maintenance of the PLAYSTATION Network is envisaged tomorrow (Tuesday October 14, 2008). Beginning: Tuesday October 14 with 21:00 End: Wednesday October 15 with 02:00 During this maintenance you will not be able to connect you to the PLAYSTATION Network. If you are connected before you should be able to play on line without problem. Thank you for your comprehension.

What also owns is because Xbox is a Microsoft product, being able to use your windows live account natively means you don't have to divide your friends list into xbox mates and msn mates...they are joined in unison.

Have xbox got the much needed game screen grab function then? Didn't realise. Let's not turn this into a ps3 vs xbox thread again lolAshley wrote:Wow when is the PS3 going to release updates that the xbox doesn't already have?

I quite like the fact that the ps3 is more powerful and what not, yet the xbox seems to pump out sharper and more crisp graphics.
Snappety snap.

Will you actually use this? Halo 3 has this and I never used it. Ever.

One question. Why is the xbox louder then a dubstep rave? lol. Amazing new updates there for the PS3. All I need now is PES 2009.
