They could do that if they implemented folders. The games don't even stretch to the edge of the screen. What have they been doing with the OS since launch, I take it the welcome screen is new? I don't recall seeing that when I was researching last year. Maybe there is hope? |
It took 3 years before PS4 got folders, PS5 apparently got them this year.
News to me, and they only work in the game library :/ Not the kinda folders we're looking for. And I really just want a long list with folders up front. On PS4 I had a VR folder with all VR games in it, long list, perfect. Media folder with all media related stuff and all non VR games in the long list after the 2 folders, simple.
On PS5 I have to go into the game library and look through there. Might as well make the game library the default view!
Actually I miss the PS3 UI, cross bar interface worked great and would do great with folders, adding more cross tabs. Everything was so organized on PS3. Still go a lot of music on there organized by album in folders under the music cross tab. Lot of videos as well. |
Yeah I'm using that, it's useful for organising downloads in queue and sorting which ps4 games have free PS5 upgrades which is a lot.
And oh I agree for sure, nothing beats the cross media bar, they could do that here and make it prettier, why did they fix what isn't broken but still, the ps4s simple design was just enough too. The PS5 feels more like a cheap version of a PC OS on some cheap android ipad. The games should be the focus. Media apps get more love than the games in their tab.
Really rather regressive, I don't know why they feel the need to start from scratch again every time, like, they had the XMB working brilliant inly then bam, back to the dark ages for ps4. They had the PS4 OS finely tuned and them bam back to the stone age.
