The new store is nice, but frankly, I’m tired of all these firmware updates that result in PS3′s suddenly being unable to read any and all disc formats. This has happened to me twice! And both times I had to send in my console to Sony for repairs.

For the love of God, can Sony please, at the very least, publicly acknowledge issues such as this (and, at best, quality-control the updates to avoid things like this). $500 bucks for a paper weight… Ugh.

@SONY
I’m sure you’ve noticed all the complaints on speed issues. Could you tell us if this is because it was just a hectic launch and needs time to clear up, or if you will improve the speed in an upcoming minor update?

I know a lot of people have encountered this issue so a blog post explaining what’s going on and your plan to fix it would be great.

Thank you Sony for the new store I have no problem with it. But I will like to note a problem with chat rooms. Some of my friend’s and me can’t chat with one another in a chat on the PS3. This started to happen after update 2.17 blu-ray live. And the only time we can chat if we plug are ps3 in the modem so I know it’s something with the routers I also heard this from other people around the net. So I’m just letting you guys know about this problem and hope you guys fix it soon and once again thank for the new store I really love it.

I am gratefull for the great store, but whats up with the long wait time on the thumb nail icons. I took 5 minutes for all of the thumb nail icons to load for the whole store. My question is if this was supoose to improve the speed of the psn store, I dont see it. Sure it looks great and seems to be very user friendly. but if it takes longer to load then why change it at all.

Great interface, clean and simple. However I still would like to see a search field.

Instead of pushing the Select Button to bring you to the “about us” page. Maybe you could turn that whole section in to a search page, site map, AND “About Us” sections.

I really like the current “About Us” page’s interface, and I think it could lend itself well to quickly finding content, without sifting.

Great Work so far. I can’t wait to see what the team has planned.

Thank you

When I opened it for the first time, not all of the images showed up, eventually some did though. Is it going to be slow like that everytime? The old one always came up with images upon loading.

I can’t get into the US store it gives me a connection to server timed out message every time I try to get in. I’ve been trying since last night. I can get into the Europe store though.
