PlayStation Store Revamp Postponed in North America

I didn't realize making a better-looking interface was so insanely difficult.

@Azikira: There's a LOT more going on with this revamp than just looks, y'know. They've got to get the aesthetics, search engine, and all the rest of the code running efficiently. I'm no programmer, but I find it difficult to believe that would be an easy task, especially when this is something that has to stream relatively large amounts of data to users' PS3's quickly.

Delay it forever, wouldn't bother me at all. I guess it needs to be changed at some point but I honestly don't mind the current PS Store setup. Even as it is right now it's still better than what Nintendo and MS have.

Would rather have it working, than running slow full of glitches. Still, Sony needs to get their act together. Don't announce something, if it clearly not ready to launch. With so many problems, I question if they really tested it enough.

Here's an idea for Sony - don't ANNOUNCE it and just do it. I mean, it isn't a game release, it doesn't NEED a date, just do it when nobody is watching that way you don't get hammered on the servers with people trying it out AND you won't be late. They've have enough problems with late announcements that you think they would have figured this out by now. Between 2 -3 in the morning on a Thursday would probably be a good time. Morons.

@BlueProxy @rjejr Okay then if you two think its so easy you guys should code a web store and make it be able to handle millions of user accessing it across the world at the same time.

I think you read my post either upside down or backwards - I never said it was easy, I said NOT to announce it beforehand so that you DON'T have to handle millions of users trying to access it at one time, hence the 2-3AM on a Thursday un-announced launch time I suggested. That time was picked b/c the US PSN updates on Tues and the EU on Wed and most people being asleep at that time.

meh, its fine the way it is.
