So I noticed the last thread for this was a few years old and most the links were dead so I thought I'd start a new one.

Post your favorite official or custom ps3 themes.

Please post download links (or playstation store links) to your favorites.

I'm currently using this one:

I'm a big fan of the Drakengard 3 themes, namely Zero's(Black/White, randomized) and Cent's(sky blue).

If you're a fan of old school Resident Evil, this one hits the spot:
Resident Evil - Umbrella theme
Multiple backgrounds and icons made from in-game items.

 

[pancakesandsex]

Here's a good one from Disgaea 3 that I forgot existed. No custom icon set sadly, but it came with one of the dlc items.

I love the dynamic Sega Genesis theme. I put it on, and haven't wanted to change it for a couple of years now.

There are several backgrounds, and it looks like someone is actually playing the game. I am trying to find a link on the Sony website, but either I'm an idiot, or it doesn't exist there anymore.

 

[Eggbok]

This one is my all time fave.

These two are follow ups, but there are even more.

So, that one. Do you happen to remember what it's called? I downloaded it a while back, it's still on my account somewhere, but I can't find it in the store.

I usually just swap between these two:

I am trying to find a link on the Sony website, but either I'm an idiot, or it doesn't exist there anymore.

I just went over my entire download history twice and finally found it. It's image is gone from my list and it link off to an error page, so it looks like it's gone.
Edit: Ok, I'm seeing comments all over about how it's no longer available unless you've already downloaded it. I found it by pulling up my PS3 download list (on system) and going through everything until it came up. Given the window it was free to PSN+ users, that should be late 2011 for most people.

The only theme for the PS3 I've purchased.

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

 

[Hoo-doo]

It genuinely bothers me how 95% of PS3/PS4 themes are unusable because the creator didn't even bother to make sure either text is readable or icons are recognizable.

I mean, fuck. What kind of lazy graphic designer is shitting these things onto the store?
Have a low-opacity black banner behind the icons or something, or have the text pop out a little. Nope. White text on a busy, bright-ass background.

Frustrates the hell out of me.

I liked this one alot as well. I think i got it for free with PS+?

The one i used the most was the Yakuza 4 theme.

It showed the 4 playable characters, i believe it was called "The 4 Men of Yakuza 4"?
Unfortunately, my Ps3 resets it's clock everytime i turn it off and the themes don't stay.
The Ps4 is missing a theme i really care about, i use the Skullgirls one at the moment because the music is nice.

That's amazing! Where'd you get it from?

 

[MilkLizard]

Most themes I tried were ugly as sin so I stopped bothering. Same for PS4 and Vita.

[Firehead]

The only dynamic theme I've purchased.
Demon's Souls:

[SolarMystic]

Official Lord of the rings theme has been my main for years.

EDIT: Having a hard time getting link to work in mobile.

 

[-GJ-]

Came for the Corn Love theme. Was a little bit disappointed that it wasn't the first reply, but I'm stil satisfied.

 

[cj_iwakura]

It came with the game at launch. I believe you can also get them on the PSN separately?

Yep, 99cents a shot.

 

[SxP]

I used the flower theme for years. Still kinda hold out hope that they'll make a similar theme for PS4.

 

[Syril]

I've been using this Ratchet and Clank theme.

It makes the menu sounds from the games too.

This is why I'm still using the default theme...

 

[pete_clarf]

I use the Killer Klowns From Outer Space theme. It's a static theme, but a different background every time I turn on my PS3. Literally (because I've probably turned on my PS3 three times in the last year).

https://store.playstation.com/#!/en...heme/cid=UP2131-NPUB31571_00-DP1MGM1KILLERKLO

The Daytona USA one is kind of cool too (free for PSN).

 

[KiraXD]

I used to make dozens of PS3 themes myself... my favorite one i made was a custom Death Note Theme... was actually quite popular around the time i released it too... so much so, everyone stole my XMB icons and layout for it XD

(finished icons)

i added a changing background to it later... unfortunately i dont have any of the original files left.

Download it here

[pancakesandsex]

The game didn't turn out too hot but this theme is pretty good if you liked it. It scrolls between all the characters.

[Nesther]

I use the KH1.5 theme that came bundled with the collection.

Ah neat, I don't think they released those in the UK so I'll pinch it off the US store.

Thanks!
