Whats to come for PS3 in 08

Peter Dille – Senior Vice President for PlayStation Network ... oh, and marketing – wants you to relax. He knows a lot of us (all of us?) are frustrated at how slowly things seem to be moving on the Sony front, so he's got a message of Hope: 2008 is your year, PS3 owners. Not only are there a couple of big games coming your way, but some of those long overdue features you keep hearing about (... and hearing about and ...) are finally coming.

The comically overdue in-game XMB is, well ... it's still coming, along with other PSN upgrades like "accomplishments" and Home. Also coming: a video service because, y'know, Sony owns its own movie studio; Dille says "it's already been confirmed that we'll be offering a video service for PS3 in a way that separates the service from others you've seen or used." And how about those PSN cards some of you have been waiting for? Retailers will carry them in $20 and $50 denominations "starting this spring." Our guess: you'll be waiting until E3.

WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN

i never cared for the 360 video service and im sure i wont care about this video service either

What is this Video service? Like....what does it do?

im guessing it will be like the 360's which is a rental service.

they will add movies in either standard or high definition and u rent them and u can keep the video on your system for a week but as soon as you watch it then it will automatically delete off your ps3 in 24 hours. so u have a week to watch it and then when u do u have 24 hours to watch it as much as you want till they delete it.

also the 360 has certain shows that u can download for a price. the tv shows u get to keep forever. i believe TNA and Southpark were the only tv shows i downloaded for the 360

Yea, it might be pretty cool...but I wouldn't use it all to often.

who knows since its sony they MIGHT let u download high def movies to keep forever if u pay the price but i wouldnt do it cuz its just adding space to my harddrive.

i hope the download speed are fast on it cuz i believe it took me 8 hours to download See No Evil in high def on the 360.

its nice being able to rent new releases from ur house tho instead of going to the store.
