Why doesn't it pause the game? On the 360 if you hit the "X-BOX" button it pauses the game. What gives? It's not terrible but is annoying.

couldnt tell you, future feature, ingame XMB pauses your game, lol

Some games pause and others dont.

Can you ...... pause and then go to XMB?

i think thats illegal....

Now why would I want to do that? Press two buttons...Just kidding I was just making a point that it would be cool if when you pressed it the game would pause.

You press the start button, then click the PS button.

At least that works with Pixel Junk Monsters. Does it not work with other games?

MGS4 Pauses, even the Cutscenes ;)

Off the top of my head GTA and SSHD pause, I'm sure a lot more do as well.  It is up to the devs.

I know that assassians creed pauses. I don't know about any other games though.
