We all know that the Metal Gear Solid series is renowned for it’s tongue-in-cheek humour, right? Well, if you’re not quite sure what we mean by this, check out the cut scene below!
(WARNING: Do not watch if you don’t want to spoil the funny moment in the game for yourself!)
After all the hype regarding PS3 firmware 2.40 in game XMB, we finally get a clear view of how in game XMB works.
Here’s the video:
It looks pretty real to us, but we’re not going to say it’s 100% real. We aren’t given a clear demonstration of what the firmware 2.4 is capable of. We get to see the system accessing it’s XMB in game, which is good - but nothing much else. We’re not shown music playing in game, friend messaging in game etc… you get the point.
If you’re wondering why the PS3 in this video has a few extra icons on it’s XMB, it’s because the firmware is being processed on a debug PS3 unit.
When can we expect to be receiving firmware 2.40? Sony have been known in the past to release their firmware upgrades on a Tuesday - which is tomorrow - and I’m pretty much sure they’ll release it in time for MGS4. I expect you’ll be able to collect trophies in MGS4 which could possibly be a little secret Kojima Productions are hiding and waiting to surprise us with? Who knows!
