New Premium Theme Options on PlayStation Store

[Green Man]

The last time I posted it was regarding our special E3 section on the PlayStation Store. This time around I wanted to tell you about a new offering that you’ll see tomorrow. In addition to all the free themes you’ve already been getting and will continue to get on the PlayStation Store now, you’ll have the option to upgrade and purchase premium themes to customize the look of your PS3’s XMB.

We have linked up with a few partners, Smobile & Disruptive Media Publishers, to distribute premium themes from PlayStation Network. They have content offerings that range in type from NCAA College licenses to beauties on the beach to original cartoons and anime. These themes were created specifically for the PS3 and have special backgrounds, XMB icons and, in some cases, sounds. Here is a sample of some of the new Themes:

We have created a new “Premium Themes” section under Themes & Wallpapers for you to easily access this content. Also, for each theme, there is preview option that allows you to view images of the theme prior to making your decision.

We plan to offer approximately 6-10 new “Premium Themes” a month. So be sure to check back often to browse the newest in premium theme content.

Have a good rest of the week and keep a look out for the new offering dropping tomorrow!

Quick! Everyone blame Microsoft.

Well, who else should we blame? I mean, there's something fucked up about having to pay for these themes in the first place and we certainly have this generation's nickle & dime pioneer to thank for that, but at least they haven't removed the ability to create your own themes on PS3.

Speaking of which, themes don't mesh well with the shit design of the current 360 dashboard. Any word on how things are going to appear with The New Xbox Experience?

who even pays that much attention to their themes or wallpapers or what the hell ever they're called

ive had the same one for almost a year

[duckman2000]

Well, I think it's easier to care when there is a decent selection available for free. And when you can actually create your own theme from scratch.

[Eel O'Brian]

my point was most people spend about five seconds on the theme page before they're doing something else

i guess it's neat, but mine could be blank for all i care

if MS made XBL free i'd be okay with them slapping ads all over it

I've had the same pic on my PS3 since 2 weeks after I bought it.
