There's got to be something that Sony hasn't yet rolled out that you wish you could do. Or something they need to improve upon, your thoughts?
I personally would like to see continued ingame XMB features added, so I'm able to do more while playing a game.
Also, the whole ID thing the 360 has going where you can log into just about any game with said ID (in multiplayer) and have that persona with you at all times instead of making new names and w/e in each an every game is a good idea. I'd like to see something like that implemented. My bro and I each have a file on my PS3 as he likes to play some games that don't support multiple saves (Assassin's Creed, GT5P) and being able to log in as your file would be great.
PlayStation 3

Something you wish your PS3 could do

I don't know, because it doesn't do it."
"ArchScabby said:well then it should."hush404 said:It doesn't play Cassette tapes either :)""ArchScabby said:"play HD-DVDS"Erm, why?"

It should be the ultimate device. tapes, cd's, vhs, A-tracks. It should play them all. Oh, and it should also be a juicer.
"hush404 said:Hehehe, I would love it if my PS3 could make juice for me while I was playing some GTA :D It should prob answer phone calls and grill cheese sandwiches while its at it eh?"ArchScabby said:well then it should."hush404 said:It doesn't play Cassette tapes either :)""ArchScabby said:"play HD-DVDS"Erm, why?"

"Only if it had a caller ID"Perhaps a firmware update could resolve that! It would have to be in game caller ID tho, pointless if while playing a game you miss a call!
"ArchScabby said:"Only if it had a caller ID"Perhaps a firmware update could resolve that! It would have to be in game caller ID tho, pointless if while playing a game you miss a call!"
They have in game XMB now!!! so the caller ID would work perfect.
"hush404 said:Ha, sweetness. Oooh Ohh answering machine too! So it can be all like "Bob is busy playing his PS3, leave a message and he might not delete it""ArchScabby said:"Only if it had a caller ID"Perhaps a firmware update could resolve that!

Oh man, that would be sweet! It should also tell them what they are currently playing too.
"hush404 said:Wait...yours doesn't do that!?!?!?.........I'd want mine to be able to transform into a car and drive me wherever AND it could run on the power of the CELL so I wouldn't have to worry about high gas prices :D"ArchScabby said:"hush404 said:Ha, sweetness.

"ArchScabby said:Or we could get one of those doohickeys that Iron Man uses to power his suit! I bet one of those slipped into the Media slots would power it for quite a while. But the hell with a car! I want mine to transform into a battling robot! Like...

"Well, I wish I could play my own music in all games and not just DL PS ones. Also I wish I could send files between PS3s. Like I wanted to send to the MGS theme song to my friend."That would actually be pretty cool. Like how you can send pictures in messages.
Imagine doing something like The Agency is going to be doing, as well as Sony with the PSN in the future.
Since PSN will begin to be a more global network, across the internet, consoles, handhelds, and even cell phones, I assume an API would be available for such things. Imagine getting a phone call or text message whenever a firmware update is available, or maybe even a message, or a game you subscribed to is now available in the store, etc.
That could totally be done, so I would love to see something like that.
"Imagine doing something like The Agency is going to be doing, as well as Sony with the PSN in the future.You know....I could see that happening pretty soon. Especially since they were talking about how this fall the your psn account was going to be universal.

be able to record in-game video/picture and save it on the HDD and be able to send vids and pics to friends
I wish it could help make the future a better place....
ok, well its already helped do that so.......
"Let me copy movies purchased from the video store to an external storage device. I'm not really interested in paying money to own a movie, and then never being able to watch it on anything other than my PS3 or PSP."Did you really expect to see that? Honestly.
"I don't have a PS3, but I heard that it doesn't have FLAC support. Get on it, Sony!"FLAC?
Does it matter much really? I don't care TBH, I just rip every CD I have (shit loads), and every song on the houses computers, as well as on iPods. Adding it all up gives me a 20GB+ library of music, all organized with icon art and whatnot.
Organized = feels good.

Video game list feature. When you put in a game it adds it to your list of games that your friends can see. And you can delete games from that list if you dont really own them.
So that people can see what games you play most.
Better Internet integration. While 2.4x was a good start it just isn't up to scratch yet.
More video codec support.
"TEAMHOLT said:No, but this thread isn't titled "Features you realistically expect to see on the PS3". (edit: Ahahaha, whoops, you made the thread. Didn't meant to step on your toes.)"Let me copy movies purchased from the video store to an external storage device. I'm not really interested in paying money to own a movie, and then never being able to watch it on anything other than my PS3 or PSP."Did you really expect to see that? Honestly."
I hear they won't DRM things recorded with PlayTV when that rolls out, but that's not coming to the States anytime soon, if at all.
