    Re: YAY 2.4 is official!

    This update was officially announced a couple of weeks ago -17th June I think. The rumoured release date is 2nd July, so in two days if people are right.

    Apparently, the following list of options are available after the update on the in-game XMB:

    Friend category
    View, send, receive messages
    Manage downloads
    Set the vibration feature of the controller
    Sign in to PlayStation Network
    Register friends
    Manage Bluetooth devices
    Terminate the game
    Music category
    Use the system BGM
    Work the system BGM operation panel
    Settings category
    Assign controllers
    View profiles
    Game category
    Set audio devices
    Use the voice changer


    Access to the XMB whilst ingame is a major bonus for me. Having to come out of a game to change settings or because someone sent you a chat invite is most annoying. Trophies...I really couldn't care less about in all honesty.

    Does this allow cross game voice chat though? The video doesn't make it clear.

    No such luck, trophies aren't retroactive, you have to start new games to earn trophies you already have...

    That sucks. They should update it for what you have already done.

    The trouble is if they did that then people would just trade save games... which is what happened on XBox Live, and get lots of achievements they haven't earned.

    A little early to be drunk?

    Set mine updating before I left for work; hopefully I don't come home to a bricked PS3.

    Well, looks like there was one surprise in the update... a new store view.

    They still manage to not get it right. I can't play my own music during games as all of my music is on my HTPC. Apparently it needs to be on your PS3.

    Sort it out sony.
    Not around too often!
