Japan: PlayStation Store revamp and firmware 2.30 sceduled for next week - Image 1Sony Computer Entertainment Japan has just released some new details regarding their scheduled launch of their region's revamped PlayStation Store.

According to the company, their revamped store is currently expected to arrive on April 15 (Tuesday), carrying with it these new features (Quoting SCEJ's translated press wire):
  • The new interface nimble movements of the operational feeling significantly improves
  • Preview the contents of downloaded video content easily available in the still image
  • The new category "recommend" "demo / PV" new category, PLAYSTATION Store to deliver RIKOMENDO
  • Other features, such as carts, more convenient shopping and download support
Sony Japan further indicated that the new PlayStation Store will be coming in at the same time as the PlayStation 3's firmware 2.3 update. That said, we're hoping this update will include the Portable Copy function that was sorely during last month's 2.20 update. Keep on the lookout in case Sony makes any related announcements regarding the new firmware's launch in the western territories.

and lets not forget the inclusion of DTS HD MA and the DTS High Resolution Audio. Im not sure what it is exactly but im excited about it lol as well as the store update and Warhawk expansion.



Its just what some audio codec films support isnt it? What happens if the film supports it? Does the PS3 downgrade it to 5.1?

It was said long ago that the new store itself will be part of the PS3's Operating System, so we can only get it with the update.
