PSN+ and PS3 Firmware 3.40 Overview

Does PSN+ & 3.40 stack-up to the hype? Check out the video for my thoughts on the service and features.

Custom soundtracks for all games?

Cross game chat?

XMB software to capture ingame pic/videos from all games? Im not gonna buy Capture card!

Voice messaging?

Able to plug and play my cheap pc webcam? I dont wanna buy PSeye!

As a huge PS fan, without this features i will never satisfied this gen!
If the console can do this things! Why Sony lockes them? I never understand! Dont start that " It has this features! But its up to devs! " crap again. Im begging you! Why is it up to devs!? Why? Why? Why???

You could just buy an Xbox and have most of those features lol.

You might be able to find most of those things on your xbox if you would pull that hat off of your eyes.

If you really have to have awkward chats with another player while speaking online and listening to Lady Gaga at the same time then I suggest you just buy a 360.

i really want custom music. that's one thing i miss. i hate most of the soundtracks on the games.. specially the racing games.

1. I'm extremely glad that custom soundtracks aren't enabled for all games -- if they were, I'd constantly be hearing music being blasted through microphones more than I already do. And some games don't have a mute feature.
2. I agree, that'd be a neat feature. The only game I've seen it enabled in is Noby Noby Boy.
3. Again, that'd be a neat feature to have -- but I can understand why it's missing, it would take a huge amount of bandwidth
4. I'm pretty sure you CAN plug in any old webcam.

What hype? it was announced then a couple hours later it came out. It does the things they said it would...

Hyperbole, I don't think it means what you think it means.
