While we’d like to consider the PlayStation.Blog to be a (the?) primary source for PlayStation news – there are a lot of really, really good gaming sites out there. Personally, I plow through roughly a thousand articles/posts per week. The most informative end up on the “PlayStation Converstation” on the right side of the blog.
But since only a few fit in that box at a time, we figured “why not put together a comprehensive reading list for PlayStation fans?” Also, we figured “we’re at least as qualified to recommend PlayStation stories as Oprah is to recommend books.” Please Oprah, don’t be mad at me.

In-game XMB stories?
I’m glad to see the blog getting updated on the weekends as well. And good to get a post with a one stop links.
Yeah but they are probably saving In Game XMB stuff for an official post (hint hint)
BTW, cool for posting on Sunday, that doesn’t happen often.
You missed the biggest news of the year! ^^;;
Jeff, are you teasing us? :D
In-Game XMB for PS3 is OTW!

You don’t really think they’re going to link to RUMORs now do you? They’ll definitely make their own post about 2.40 when it comes time for release.
The biggest official news for me was Bioshock, cant wait! :)
What is going on with the PSP? It had some awesome games early this year, but looking at IGN’s release list there’s not much of anything in the pipeline. Where’s Team ICO’s PSP effort? Why was Heartland canceled?
I take my PSP everywhere, and I am thinking about picking up a 16GB Memory Stick, but I don’t want to do that if Sony isn’t serious about the platform.
Also, its been a while since the firmware added anything worthwhile. Skype came out in January, and you couldn’t even use it until May because the headset wasn’t available!
How come I still can’t make music playlists on the PSP after 3 years? Why can’t I nest folders on the memory stick? When I copy music (manually since there’s no good PC software), I have to copy “OK Computer”, “Kid A”, and “The Bends” separately. It would be a lot easier if I could just drag “Radiohead” in and be done with it.
Please tell me Sony is going to get the PSP situation straightened out.
Great, now I can see news about PS3 from other websites from the official PS3 blog, hehehe
Nice, i really like this idea :).
Jeff please, just answer us with a simple yes or no. Is firmware 2.4 coming in june and will it have ingame xmb?
Hey Jeff, do u actually note down the things we say? or do u try to keep it all in your’re head.
I am sure there are lots of opinions and lots of ways of improving and not all can be remembered.
Dont\’ worry, chaosatom, I\’m more organized than that.
