Update 2.10 coming Dec. 18th?

Next PS3 update possibly tommorrow.

A Voice Changer feature has been added to the Voice and Video Chat menu. If you want more information visit eu.playstation.com and consult the "Voice Changer" guide included in the "Help and Technical Assistance for PS3" section.
This feature allows you to change the tone of the sound originated by audio devices, like microphones. It has 5 preset levels and a bass and (what's the opposite of bass? ) scale.

You can alter the tone while using the Voice and Video chat options available in "Friends"

It allows for true seamless PIP content in certain Blu ray movies. The first batch of movies coming out with these features will hit in January.

 

I have a feeling we won't ever see it. You might have to wait until Home hits.

 

Edit.

 

LOL! Home is still being tested. They pushed it back to add a few more things and it will be out in early 2008. I'm glad they are fine tuning it before releasing it to the public.

Why does everyone say PS3 is do or die next year? It has sold nearly as much systems in the first year as the 360 did in it's first. Keep in mind Sony has had to deal with a higher street price in the begining and competition with the Wii and 360. 360 had no Next Gen Compettion in it's first year. The argument can also be made that there have been better games for the PS3 in its first year than 360. I am assuming that you are trying to compare PS3's success to 360. So if you are not using the 360 as your measuring stick, what are you using?

The PS3 is doing just fine and 2008 will be a big turning point in this "Next Gen war".

 

Update is available now.
