Considering that the XMB won an Emmy award (get ready for a mouthful: "The Emmy Award for Outstanding Innovation and Achievement in Advanced Media Technology for the Best Use of Personal Media Display and Presentation Technology"), you can't deny the fact that the graphical user interface of the PS3 and PSP is indeed making waves... LOL, did I just make a pun there? Now, Sony's announced that they'll be incorporating the XrossMediaBar up, down, left, and right into their latest line of Vaio mobile laptops, the Vaio FW series. This line of notebooks will have the new Media+ software that uses the XMB interface. To further sweeten the pot, you can hook up your PS3 or PSP to the Vaio FW, via DNLA server. Now how's that for interconnectivity? Throw in that Bravia too - its V4500 HDTV series also has the XMB, y'know. Related articles:

I have to agree with GW2, the XMB is such a simplistic idea and it just works so well.

is there anything better on other consoles?
before you mention 360 dashboard, they're actually scrapping it with an update. Therefore, it is OFFICIALLY a crap UI.
The new 1? looks unclear an dull.

» first
of all its emcp
second of all, i dont own a 360, so im not a fanboy and just ditching the xmb, if anything im a sony fanboy
also yes its good, i used to like it due to its simplicity but ive gotten to bored with it
and sony should at least give their consumer the ability to change the menu, just like CTF (CXMB)
it can still keep the simplicity but just modify it a bit, instead of just changing icons
thats my argument
and while their might not be a better interface else where it doesnt mean it should be left
second of all just because a UI gets updated doesnt mean the previous was crap
the xmb got updated with custom icons, does that make the original crap???
seriously thats something a retard would say, or a 2 yr old

it will not replace windows. it will be like a media center type app im sure. sony would not drop going with windows, you lose 95% of your market by doing that and thats a big cash cow to give up.

im guessing its going to be like hp's quickplay where (on older laptops) you can play dvd's and other media even without booting into windows... make sense right? saves time from booting vista.

» I personally like the 360 dashboard better
The 360 dashboard is the same as the XMB, except for the fact that the interface looks nicer. Instead of centering on a single option, you can see a list of options.
While I love my PSP, I just don't like the XMB. Looking at the XMB options it centers whatever you're on, and you can see part of one above and part of one below.
360 example:
Option1
Option2
Option3
Option4
Option5
PS3/PSP example
Option1(half)
Option2
Option3(half)
