Just had a play.
+ Having everything on one page per game is much, much better.
- The slow start up and how sluggish it feels moving around.
- Rather than showing you all the latest content on one grid/screen, you now have to scroll around because half of it is taken up by a big dude-bro or whatever.
- The new search is about as stupidly implemented as you can get. Remember when vidzone launched and the search was fucked up? Well they have topped it again.
- I have no idea where to find the latest store update list, because there are like 3 'latest' options now and they give different content.
- No changes to download list (which personally I couldn't care less about because I would just find the content in the usual way and download it, but I know people want it for some reason?).
- Everything takes longer to do now, like downloading a demo. I shouldn't have to check that shit out.
- Playstation Plus apparently no longer exists because it is hidden away.
Overall? It'll be better when they actually finish it. All the marketing crap is here to stay no doubt, so not much point complaining about that (might as well be complaining about pricing or unreleased content....shame that isn't addressed).
One would think rather than talking to whatever bullshit focus group/marketing team they have been listening too, they would just load up steam or even the ios app-store and see how fucking easy it can be.
