Yes, you can use your real photo and name if you want, and pick which friends are able to see it, others will only see the normal PSN avatar and ID.
the others like the calender and the trophy list are indeed fakes... which where pointed out by our fellow gaffers
Are you sure it's that configurable? I thought it was either or and not selectable by user?Yes, you can use your real photo and name if you want, and pick which friends are able to see it, others will only see the normal PSN avatar and ID.

I assume the last one is a mockup too, unless that guy somehow replied from a year ago.
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.
Where is my Sarah Greene?

Not very realistic, though. It will look more like this on your screen starting November 15th:
The XMB is still there. These are pictures from each section of the XMB you enter.
I liked the XMB, I don't need to navigate large dialogue windows with giant graphics to launch a game, listen to music, chat a friend, or access Netflix.
In the minority here - I know, but I really enjoyed having the ability to pick my wallpaper image and icon style to an overall minimalist tone when navigating the PS3.
From a design standpoint, it looks like a fairly amateurish attempt to ape pinterest and metro.
It also smells of mockups, so its probably a pretty long way off.
[edit] I should add, though, that I thought the PS3 UI was decent, but severely restricting. Also the PS Store UI was absolute garbage.
Are you sure it's that configurable? I thought it was either or and not selectable by user?
so this is the change of the main menu?

new:
Personally the new one is a lot better. But that might have to do with the change in background wallpaper.
We can use our own pic for our avatar? Thank you, Sony, I've already got something in mind.
Julien Sorel sounds like a villain from Alias.

as I mentioned earlier, they're fake and pretty bad ones.
