Good news and bad news for PlayStation 3 gamers. At least, PlayStation 3 gamers who frequent the PlayStation Store. Bad news first: the PS Store will not be posting any new updates from now till mid-April. Why? Well, that's the good news.

The good news is, if you haven't already heard, the PlayStation Store is getting a whole new look this April! Above are the first batch of screenshots that Sony has released for the new design. Check them out and see if you like 'em.

One major change you may have noticed is that instead of having four major categories in the PS Store, the new design will have have eight. Once the PS Store is ready to launch its makeover, users will have to download a new firmware update.

In case you were wondering, the revamp will not affect PSN accounts or the virtual wallet system. Sony also promised to release more info and a video walkthrough in the next few days. We'll be sure to keep you posted, so check back for updates.
