That’s right, In-Game XMB is finally coming on July 2nd. Finally PS3 owners will have the same luxuries as the Xbox 360 owners, such as listening the custom soundtracks, interacting with friends in-game and other features of the Xross Media Bar. As part of the 2.40 Firmware Update for the PS3, the new Trophies system will also be available. This is essentially the PlayStation 3 equivalent of the Xbox 360 Achievement system, and allows PS3 gamers to have a profile of their own (much like an Xbox 360 Gamercard). So far the list of games supporting Trophies are as follows:

  • BUZZ! Quiz TV
  • LittleBigPlanet
  • MotorStorm Pacific Rift
  • NBA 09 - PS3
  • PAIN
  • PixelJunk Eden
  • Resistance 2
  • SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation
  • Warhawk
