(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ok this is just to see what you guys think about, discuss, give ideas, and to see your thoughts about how would you feel if we had all this. If you have more cool and useful ideas put it here, and I'll update it, then maybe we could send Sony some letters about this and at least get a reply Smile. Or at least to make sure we have all this in PS4

Top 20 features PS3 needs:


Cross Game Voice Chat
It would be nice for us to be able to communicate with our friends online while we are playing different games using our Official PS3 Bluetooth Headset.

Auto-Syncing Trophies
When you acquire a Trophy in-game, the trophy should sync to the network without the user having to go to their profile or to the trophy section and choosing ‘Sync’.

PS Button – Auto Read Message Upon Notification
When you receive a notification that you’ve received a message or friend request, you should be able to press the PS button while the notification is showing to go straight to the message.

Make PS2 games downloadable via Store.
So backwards compatibility on new machines won’t happen so why don’t Sony put the best PS2 games for sale on the PSN Store like they do for PS1 games.

In game music for ALL titles
Not just for certain games, but for all games the ability to put play your own music.

Appear offline
There should be an option in your psn account to change your state to appear offline or invisible to your friends list.

Change Your PlayStation Network ID
The idea is simple. We pay a small fee to change our PlayStation Network ID without losing all of our trophies and friends.

Currently "doing?"
Simple, for any movie, video, music or anything you're doing, playing or watching, that it shows under your name, like when you're playing a game.

Voice messages
Add voice messages where we can send voice messages to friends

Able to put friends into groups !
My idea is to be able to group your friends into different groups. So one group could be clan members, friends, randomers, cod addicts or what ever group you want

In Game screenshots/capture for ALL games.
Just like "Just Cause 2" that you can record while playing, and upload it directly to XMB or YouTube. It doesn't matter if the quality is poor, but at least to able to record.

Official worldwide PSN Trophy leaderboard
A worldwide leaderboards for trophies, like most trophies earned. Most bronze, plate, gold, platinum. Highest level etc. And showing your position and your friends position and worldwide.

Playstation Home community
The idea is that you could put your PS Home character as your PSN avatar, you could buy a movie from PS store and go and watch in PS Home and invite friends to watch it with you (lets say maximum of 4) etc.

More Music Visualizations
We would love to see some cool visualizations while we listen to music.

Apps Store (App section)
It would be cool if we could have like an YouTube app (kinda like iPhone), Facebook app, MSN app, AIM app, Email app, and some other useful apps.


Allow more space (characters) for the comment bar
Why not extend the character limit so our comments can be as long as the colored bars around our PSN ID and Avatar? The space is there (the comment bar is already twice as big), lets use that space?

Faster Download
We need to download things faster, it takes too long to download a game comparing it to others.

Seperate and real inbox for game invites
Games invites get mixed with messages, we need a separated inbox for it, and with expiration within 24 hours, they will get auto-deleted from inbox.

Last Game Played Under Offline Friends
It would be nice to know what my friend played last while he/she is offline, mainly cuz i kno alot of people who like to compete & i do it alot even when they’re offline lol its fun in a sense :3

Report users (not just messages)
Ability to report any user (like xbox 360)

Yes, most of them are from PS share.

These are all good ideas, nice post. The auto-read messages features would be something you should be able to turn on or off, since I think it would get annoying if someone sent you a message that aws all in the subject (like the subject says the message, and the body is blank) so when you hit the PS button, a while later, you would go to the message that you already read.

Other than that, it's a nice list, a lot of those features would be really cool to see implemented, but to be honest, Sony will probably never implement a majority of these features.

To have all that would be something amazing, also maybe if we could change our psn names on existing account would be nice. Also auto delete messages, the other day i had to wait 30 minutes to erase 6000 messages in my inbox, cuz i never deleted them before.

lol I wonder who took the picture that close (in your sig)

On-topic: Yea it would be great, I don't know why Sony don't put such feature? I mean just the ability to change names will benefit Sony more than us, they will make a lot of money out of it (people their changing names for at least $10), and it will decrease the accounts spam etc.

At least I can fight
Wow absolutely every idea is what I had in mind awhile back lol!. But 80% are from the XBL, so I doubt they'll have those because Sony doesn't really enjoy copying ideas *cough* like Microsoft *cough*

You deserve a +rep for the ideas and the way this thread was organized Winky Winky

I use to give free rep :/
Thing is we can do just about all of these with custom firmware. Even cross game chat. Someone just had to write it. To bad Sony doesn't give a **** about their customers.
