To paraphrase:  We should accept crap and not want improvement to the console's "main" function.  We should admit it sucks and rely on hope alone.  Also, I pity the fool who is angered by lack of features to a console/service.

 

 

Hmmm this meal seems complete, however it could use a dessert.

Well here is your chocolate ice cream!

Chocolate Ice Cream sucks and is for pussies, it's all about Chocolate MOUSSE ice cream.

Sigh.

 

Who are you to say what the "Main Function" is or isnt? What if you only bought it for it's Blu-ray drive? Do you give a shit about the in-game XMB if you don't own any games? I would think not (I could be wrong of course). How about for family's or people in general that do give a shit about the picture options (they're out there y'know). Sony's gunning this thing to be a multi-media hub, and this kind of support gives mention to that fact. As I mentioned, if they added nothing, you wouldn't be complaining right now. I don't see how adding something that wasn't there before makes something worse >_>. Many of us bought PS3's before in game XMB was even there. We thought it was worth owning even without it. It's the 360 elitist's that spawn this kind of nonsense by talking about how things should or shouldn't be. My roomates 360 can't play blu-discs. Let me go cry you a river.


 

Well said Chrono. Plus PSN is free, not subscription based

It is talk like yours like is killing Sony this generation.  You say they are trying to make a huge multi-media hub, but that is exactly what is killing them in sales.  They are advertising everything but the games.  The PS3 is first and foremost a Gaming Console, it was designed as such, and any other features are additions.  The amount of people who bought it for games greatly outnumbers those who solely bought it as a blu-ray player or something else.  If they added nothing I'd still be complaining about the lack there of.  I never said it made it worse, just that they need to focus their attention on more gaming related features.  This update is so minimal, they should have just kept these updates for a different date and time when they had more to update all at once.

I pity you and your over justification of things that every "gamer" on the PS3 knows they need.
