VidZone: Where Next?

Did everybody download the free 30MB app last night from the PlayStation Store? If you did, you'll already know that VidZone is something quite special.

You can browse loads of music videos and build your own playlist. But get your mates in and pass the pad around for some eclectic choices. Not bad for free. Your PlayStation 3 just got better.

Did everybody download the free 30MB app last night from the PlayStation Store?

*Sniffles* No...

Anyway, I'm hoping that music wise we will be able to browse music videos across all regions. I personally want to see some of the music videos from overseas in Japan mainly rock groups, and then some Trance and progressive ones from overseas as well.

It says it will be rolling out in all territories over the next 12 months, here's hoping the U.S. won't be getting it on the 12th month.

I don't mean to rub any salt into a fellow gamer's wound but ... it's brilliant ;)

I was so surprised at how instantly the videos play. Not sure how they do it. Seems quicker than normal streaming ... anyone?

It's another good little app that just adds to the entertainment abilities of the PS3.
I was using it last night, clocking a good mix of new tunes and some old 80's and 90's classic sh!t that I haven't heard in years.
If Sony arn't careful I will end up having my PS3 running 24/7 with all the different uses for it.

Of course though it would be nice to get the few things everyone is gagging for (private in-game chat, cross game chat and invites, party system) before getting more of these useful and cool but non-essential apps.

Still the PS3 is getting better all the time and its about time people stopped knocking it and saying sh!t like its failing.... cos its quite obviously not.... its pretty much just getting warmed up!
