Raonak said:Hmm... Some interesting suff in the index screen. Singstar and God of war 2?
Also, anyone else getting the feeling that the Bubbles is for open/sleeping applications rather than all your games and stuff.
Im hoping so, seems like it would be a cluttered mess if that is how you're meant to navigate the bubbles for your list of games and whatnot.
seems like theres 2 levels of OS
Index(XMB?)

Nuclear Muffin said:Well, you've already got remote play support between Vita and PS3. That's probably the closest that you'll get.
At this point I wouldn't be surprised if all the "RAM cut" rumors referred to what developers had to work with, ie: they lost 256MBs because it was reserved by the OSNuclear Muffin said:It looks very fully featured and quite intuitive (if a bit cluttered)
It's gotta be taking up a large chunk of that RAM though (Wouldn't be surprised if it was a full 128MB, especially since it can apparantly run apps in the background)

m0dus said:My only question:
Is it skinable???
That's a very important question, it's been asked many times, and I think the Vita will desperately need it. Nobody knows obviously, but I don't think Sony will pass up the opportunity of charging users for premium themes just like they did with PS3 & PSP.m0dus said:My only question:

CozMick said:Looks like shit!
Bring back the XMB!
It's going the way of the 360 dashboard, utterly cluttered and confusing, more menus than are actually needed...urgh.
The only ads we know of so far are ones the pubs/devs decide to push in their own LiveArea pages in order to promote new DLCs, etc.OneMoreQuestion said:Throw in some ads and I'm OUT of the Vita party...

Does this confirm a system wide screencap feature? Because it should.gofreak said:

No I was referring to "I just played an awesome level, here's a picture of it" and attached image. The camera icon could work like the iPhone: by clicking the icon you could either pick a photo from your library to attach/upload or take a new one on the spot from either cameras.gofreak said:Doesn't confirm it to my eye. Looks like the camera icon is to attach a picture to a message. WHERE the picture comes from? That's the question really. Some games could offer screenshot functionality, others might not. Or maybe it's universal. But this doesn't confirm it, I don't think - merely that you can attach pictures to messages.

I've explain the slide before but I will explain it again
When you turn the Vita on you start on Live mode and the home page
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/fspMh.png[IMG]
You can then select the applications on the home page when you select a application in the homepage, it opens another page and creates a small icon at the top. The more applications you open from the home page the more pages are created. You can flick through the pages (left and right) to multitask through the applications. The imagine below shows 7 pages open in Live mode.

To enter game mode you simply select the game application in the home page, lets say you want to open Unchartedt game you select the game icon on the home page, this would then open Uncharted's LiveArea page.

On the LiveArea page you can see news updates on the game, leaderboards, LiveArea chat feed, DLC and etc. To go into game mode and start the game you simply select start.
Once the game is running you can easily go back to Live mode by pressing PS button. When you go back to Live mode the game gets suspended and goes to the Uncharted LiveArea page. Of course you are not restricted to the LiveArea page when a game is suspended, you can still flick through other pages in Live mode like the home page. To go back in to game mode you can either press PS button or select the game again on LiveArea. If a game is not in suspended mode and you press PS button, that takes you to index Mode (which I still have no idea what it is).[/QUOTE]
Did you... did you just repeat everything I previously said? even used my screens [img]http://i.imgur.com/KuGsj.gif
Ah yes, totally forgot about that. A universal feature would be useful either way, I don't think they're struggling with resources this time around.Raonak said:All that confirms is that on LBP you can take pictures... which you could already do in LBP1 and 2.
That part about "album of screenshots" kind of looks like all games have the screenshot functionality:Raonak said:All that confirms is that on LBP you can take pictures... which you could already do in LBP1 and 2.

Michan said:I personally find this to be the ugliest UI ever produced by Sony. It's terribly inconsistent in terms of shapes and colours, though clearly far more functional as a touch interface than the XMB.
Can't they make it functional and aesthetically pleasing?
