Very nice refinement. I like that home screen a lot. More pleasing blue, and some of the transluncencies were taken out.

Exactly. You guys are mixing up fan made screenshots with official ones.
At second glance, yea, they look fake, especially up in the upper-right where the PSN ID info is.
Welp, then that ends that then lol.

Are you serious Sony? Why would you make almost all the icons flat and then have the store icon look 3D? Get that shit out of here.

The store icon has always been like that though.

These aren't official images, but since so many of you seem incapable of using your imaginations and seeing past the blue ribbons that you will be able to customize into oblivion, here:
Now, how does everyone feel? Better? Worse? The same? Indifferent?
Thank you. Change of background makes quite the difference
yeah the standard emboss and the Century Gothic used to death, very fake.

Am I going to have to scroll through a hundred game icons every time I want to get to an application? The best part of XMB was that applications were categorized with music, movies, games, etc. Hopefully they do something along those lines. Any time I see a trail of icons going off the screen it makes me worry.

I've seen it on the PSP, PS3 and Xperia Phones - I personally don't mind it, was just surprised they are still using it. On the Xperia, it's called 'dynamic ribbon' - when you swipe, open/close etc the ribbon does alls sorts of stuff.
Compared to Metro and the PS4's Dynamic Menu, the Blades were a fugly, skumorphic, convoluted mess of confusion. They also lacked any kind of ability to change or be customized. Take off those rose tinted glasses; the blades were crap. There, I said it.
Also, how is this or Metro not made for a controller when the blades somehow were? You move up, down, left, right and click a button. The control is exactly the same for either, except the blades just had stuff in different areas of the screen.

I can't wait to dive in.
Pictures help, but the experience is a whole different thing.

Lol. I like you.
This is not at all like Metro. It's actually more like the original XMB, just that with game titles, it makes sense to have the "Box Art" in a square, much like for music etc. It's different from Metro in that, it's not only squares.
thanks- pics that interest me... lighter tint and now with facebook icons
Wait, there's a calendar on my PS4??? CONFIRMED: SONY DOESN'T CARE ABOUT GAMES!
(Also, that was a joke)
And that's my opinion about that thing.

I don't love the blue ribbon motif, but the only time I will see it is on the ps4 box that i will stow away in a closet and when I boot up the PS4 for the first time. It just seems of such little consequence.
Oh that would be nice.
At worst, I'd expect the Vita to emulate the touch pad on the QuadShock. So at least scrolling, etc will be a better experience.
I didn't say that it was of consequence, only that I think it's an ugly design.

These are shopped...... I think....
At least that's how the end product would look. Seeing the UI in action already, I think we can safely assume you will get what you see in those screenshots
Good catch! The new ones do look a lot better!

This. For all those hating the blue, please feel free to knock yourselves out with custom backgrounds.

Everything looks pretty nice but that trophy screen is a mess with the font sizes and clutter.
I like that I can see everything in that one screen, doesn't look cluttered to me at all, it seems neccessary.

This is a very nice interface !
I hope everything will work day one as advertized. Including the smartphone app which looks very nice btw.

Excellent question! I can't see any reason why they would choose not to. Can someone ask Shu?

Sony has always been terrible at ui's across the board. My nex camera menu is a mess and my Bravia has a very cumbersome layout.
