Tekken ONLINE on the EU store tomorrow as well.

Sorry Sony, too little too late. I've already shelled out for VF5 online on the 360.

Uncharted DEMO on the US store tomorrow though, so it's not all bad.

As much as I said I didn't need Tekken Online now I have VF5, I sold VF5 as I didn't like it, so Tekken is back on the cards for me again.

Can't wait to give Uncharted a whirl though, but I fear my COD4 may be with my tomorrow! Fingers crossed.

Firmware 2.0 is up already, needed to update before checking the JPN store a few minutes ago. Took alomst 10 minutes to download.

EDIT: took total of 15 minutes to download and install, not got time to play with it now.

Just updating mine now, the "Main features" screen is just "meh" in the extreme.

I'll probably switch the theme on, then switch my PS3 off.

EDIT: Updated, turned theme on (looks pretty), turned RSS feeds on (out of date news) and turned it back off again. Big for me.

Includes a link to the official theme creation toolkit.

That's pretty cool. Gonna make a LFC and a Jet Set Willy theme.

Not that I'll probably bother as I dont have my PS3 on often enough to make it worth while, but can you change the RSS feeds?

[Flinty]

Er, where?

It's an odd system, you can read the news articles but I don't see a way to change it to ... say bbc news' rss feed.

[ChrisF]

Does pressing triangle do anything? Maybe you have to subscribe to them via the web browser?

edit: Ah who cares. No one's going to use it anyway

Only had a quick look but at the moment it seems to be PSN related only at the moment. You can choose which country you want to be informed about.

Hopefully it'll tell us when things are available in the store.

EDIT:
The icon suggests that it may only be Sony sanctioned stuff that you have access to using it.

[JP]

Well that's a bit of good news!!! It seems that you can sort your games, demos & photos etc into different albums now and list them via album.

I've set up a Demo album and put all the demos in there. This makes things so much better when you have loads of stuff downloaded!

The in-game XMB is a lie! Love that ****.

This update is rather useless eh?! The information board feed, is there anyway to change the language on that cos mine is constantly in Japanese.
