Looks like XBLA, Windows Phone and Windows 8. I guess MS really was on to something with the Metro look.

Whether it looks like the 360 store or not, it's about time they changed it, so hooray for that. Will give it a try in a bit to see if anything has actually improved, but that old store was a clunky mess at finding stuff, so I wouldn't imagine it would be hard for this revamp to be better.

Well, honestly, the 360 store has only gotten progressively worse. It's an absolute mess and a joke. Not sure why companies feel the need to change their interfaces so much. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

AMAZING!

I don't think it similar to MS Store.

The Store is now in HTML5 so any compatible browser can run it... Sony's plan is update with a new feature per month.

I'm really excited and I can't wait the next week.

It uses HTML5 or the PS3 now Support HMTL5?!

Just so we're clear (I couldn't tell from your post :o), I was talking about the PS3 store.  It was a mess, at least I thought the old one was.

There's loads of stuff that needs changing, idk if this new layout will fix any of.  But just simple stuff like: It's too hard to scroll through your download list to find something you want; the search function is often poor; many games don't have proper descriptions or compatibilty listed, stuff like that.  I would hope that the new PS3 store fixes some of that, regardless of whether it looks like the 360 store (is what I was meaning).

Where are you getting this info from?

Same source, a new article.

Stay tuned for the full interview, which also touches on recent delays and communication, and why the Store has been built in HTML5…

Eww... hopefully they can make up for it by making it run faster and show more content...


Ew? Are you blind?

Please load up the PS Store on the PS3 right now. I'll wait...........ok you see it? It's plain as fuck. Has too many menus and its impossible to find great content unless you know specifically what you're looking for. The new UI makes searching easier and even lets you find the Top Rated games and they added a "Most Popular" section. These things should have been there from the very beginning.

Well in this case the PS Store is broken :D

The new interface looks similar to the 360 one, I"ll admit that. But is that really a bad thing? XBL is the most successful online platform. They're doing something right.
