Has anyone else heard the rumors of a major Sony Online upgrade? Apparently the update will make the Xbox LIVE interface look antiquated in comparison. Apparently the interface is set up like a Virtual Town where each user has their own virtual apartment. Within your apartment you store your collection of acheivements and virtual trophies to show off to any "visitors" (i.e. people on your Friends list). Your friends could visit you if you are "home" (i.e. online)and once inside they could "walk around" your apartment and view how you've decorated your place. But more importantly, they could listen to any music or watch videos that you've got in your place (i.e. content you've stored on your PS3). Furthermore, your friends could join you for a game of cards or other simple games while listening to your music or even running a movie on your virtual TV (again using data on your PS3 HD). Once outside of your apartment you could visit the virtual Movie Theater to download--what else?--video content, visit the virtual Arcade, and other more exciting areas that I'm not at liberty to discuss yet...

Whoa. That's an amazing idea. Please bring it to other territories as well - I'm on MSN all the freakin' time, it'd be nice to know that I'm helping a worthy cause at the same time. :)

About what "freakguy666" said. I doupt it would have worked on sony"s servers since playing online on the playstation network is free. Its a great idea but no way could that sort of thing would go down well as a free service!

MAJOR NELSON!

*panting* I ran all the way here from Joystiq.com. Thank the XBLA Team for WORMS NEXT WEDNESDAY! It's very important that you give them a extremely manly and hardcore high five for me. Seriously, it should sting their hands. Wear a glove if you have to.

We do need an official Xbox Live related icon on WLM, Major. Pull some strings. I've been sort of hoping for a year or so now that something like that would be made official.
