The text entry in VidZone is really annoying – otherwise a great service – it just makes it very difficult to search for things. Why not have the standard text entry box which is really good?

I’d like to see new and extended dance moves in home, take the running man for instance and compare it to the Utah Saints video (on VZ).

I love this blog but, being the official SCEE blog, it would be nice to see game videos/screenshots and developer interviews etc before they hit sites like IGN. Second-hand content makes this blog feel a little unofficial – if you catch my drift.

When will the PSN profiles on our PS3′s get more customization.
I think introducing them was a really big think and was pretty exited to have one, especialy since quite a few people on my list seem to often view my profile to check my trophies (& i do their’s)
The option to change the profile background colour would be a step in the right direction

Worms should be cheaper, its over $18 here in NZ, and my mate has the game on his 360 a year ago for like $8.
I dont have a 360 and i dont want one, but we should get games the same price, specially if theres a big wait with no extra features!

Could someone at SCEE get hold of Mark Bunting producer of PlayTV for an update. For some reason he has not been on his blog for over 3 weeks now, heaps of people are asking questions.
Link to his blog:

Quiet news week on the EU Blog last week, are you guys all on your summer holidays or something?
Let’s hope we get more news in the coming weeks – I’m particularly intrigued by SCEE booking a THREE HOUR press conference a the Gamescom in Cologne at the start of August – do you need all that time to unveil an EU Video Store maybe?

Will someone please, PLEASE ask SONY to fix the browser? It has serious freezing issues – the other day a browser freeze caused me to have to return my system to default via a blue screen message?!
The browser has serious compatibility issues (that probably causes these freezes) with many websites.
A major update to the browser would be appreciated.
