Rumor: we might be getting a new PS Store layout

That looks terrible, so much wasted space and too many button presses to get to anything. Up for media, down for details, down again for bundles, down again for add on's, down again for recommendations, etc.... Want to go back to details from recommendations? Press Up three times!
 
I hope that we get a new layout that is easier to search for games with good categories. The current one is pretty garbo in my opinion when it comes to efficiently look for games, especially when you're just browsing
 
I would settle for a PS Store that just worked every time I wanted to open it, and not randomly require me to relog or restart.
 
Remember old Bluey?

Flashbacks to the early PS3 days. Brings me back to the beginning of PS Home
 
I'd have to see more to decide if I'd like it or not. Other than some things being a bit hard to find, the current store layout is fine though.
 
I absolutely hate the current layout for PS4, although I admit I've gotten used to it so that I can navigate somewhat-quickly. Though it's a weird metric, the "button-press average to get to the content you want" is very high. Everything that I care about is several notches down the menu and at least one or two notches to the right (in the sub-menu). Sure, I could hit Triangle and Search, but I have to do that letter by letter.

As petty as it sounds, the PSN Store layout and functionality is my most-hated aspect of the PS4 (which isn't too bad, if you think about it). But really, it's very annoying.

I'd love it if they revamped the store.
 
it's probably fake, because:

Well DualSHockers has more images, it's likely a typical PS Store listing bug that is common. Sometimes items have certain game support, some have different display icons etc..

e: Maybe also it's just badly highlighting that you can use Remote Play via Vita?
 
Oh god no. It looks like the Xbone One store which is so terrible I'd rather open my laptop and use the webstore instead. I like the PS store as it is.
 
Can't be worse than the current store, both web and PS4.
Even the PS4 japanese store has a (slightly) better layout.

but on twitter he said "these popped up when I went to the pages on the store." Why would Sony use different data for new design there?
 
Can we have instant trailers in a window like on Steam please? Lame having to click view trailer.

Also written user reviews.

Rollouts like these won't happen instantly for everyone, they get done in stages. Even something as simple as the PS4's 3.50 beta key thread had many people getting their key and many people waiting for theirs*

Plus, this might not have meant to go live as it did, and a random bug caused some user(s) to get this new design before Sony corrected it. Whilst it could be fake, DualShockers has more images in similar vein of design.

e; eww I made silly grammar error
 
Pls no.

The current layout on the PS4 is good, just change the search function and we're ok.

Mmhmmm..

The for the Playstation Store? I can hardly find shit in that place. I remember when I felt like splurging on some titles and couldn't find anything other then what was currently on sale and featured.

I didn't know there was a few games already out in the store during this time until months after.

The store really needs this.

The Division for Vita confirmed.

Time to make an OT.
 
Current uk store is so bad, unless you search directly you cannot find anything.
Finding new releases or DLC is such a pain in the bum
 
Not Fake for sure. I saw that too, and took plenty of screenshots.

Tho, it probably wasn't intended fora reveal, because they just pulled it.
 
The current store isn't bad (on PS4 anyway), but there's definitely a few things that need to be changed or remove. The lettered titles for searching need to go.
 
Ohhhhhh, so this new design is for the individual items' pages, the current spotlight design will remain.
Nice, best of both worlds, then.
 
Why on earth is Sony so awful at sorting in every single online function they do?

Whether it's the download list or the store, their concept of organization has always been horrible.
 
They need to step back from all the heavy graphic/image format because it runs like shit, especially on the old PS3. Forget the flash, make it fast and organized.
 
The Xbox One Store is the worst to navigate RIP

bring back the second PS3 store or leave the PS4 store as is
 
Please just allow me to view the goddamn PS2 games on PS4 in EU. Any change that adds a section for that is a massive improvement. I have no idea why they think it's a good idea to hide the games from people.

Also, yes, old fast functional PS3 store was the best.
