IGN: PlayStation Store Impressions

and that it was the end of the world.

Look how some people deal with things:

"The screens that took forever to load seemed to get their act together once they were on the screen. When we left the alphabetized breakdown and came back in, the logos were there and there was nothing to load. That was the case for most of the screens we had to wait for, but after awhile, the loads started happening again. It's probably just a day one jitter -- and even if it isn't, we're talking seconds here and not minutes -- but it definitely warrants a mention."

and well.. you know how others deal with it.

"It's a huge improvement over Xbox Live's marketplace," said IGN Xbox 360 Associate Editor Ryan Geddes while watching us fool around with the Store.

Then, he saw the blank tiles and load time.

"Erase my quote," he said.

I lol'd.

i really like the new store.

it loads in a split second.
the circle button is now the "back" button
and the layout is way better.
even that little special effect when you click on something to open a new "window"

i have yet to encounter the missing images or loading times. *shrug*

a great improvement... for me at least. the lag was what sort of bothered me with the old store but now that issue is gone.

but wait until this weeks update,

GTp released in america and MGO beta worldwide, 3 weeks of rockband/GH songs and any other demos and people still confused from the new look

I see a crash in the stores future

I couldn't get in last night which is understandable, but now I went in and cached everything now it's lightning fast.

The question is when? Anyways, whats more important is the other much wanted request like in-game XMB so I'm not complaining until they have that and Home down.

Time to start complaining about it! =]

Everything about it is perfect...except the loading of the tiles. I almost wish they were background-installed on the Hard Drive so that everything could be even faster. Actually, i noticed the store did get a bit faster between last night and earlier this morning, so maybe there's hope?

i think its a little too early to be deeming it better/worse than the xbox marketplace.. its barely been released to day and its still practically in its beta stages..or something
