Goodbye Cross Media Bar, hello future.

Sony has sent out high-res images of the PlayStation 4 interface as seen in its coming-out party, which you can browse in the gallery below. Tablet- and smartphone-sized versions of the interface are shown as well.

What do you think? Better or worse than the XMB we've come to know and tolerate over the years?

Eh don't care really. Guess I'll get used to it
by AshaMan3000 Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 11:15 AM

It's more similar to PSN's updated look... Neither good nor bad. The guy has more trophies than even Mojo!

Where's all the advertisements? Wait a second, this isn't Xbox LIVE. :)

When Windows 8 and Xbox does large tiles, it's an insult... when Sony does large tiles, people love it... what is wrong with people?!!!
by Nolan Swart Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 11:16 AM

It's like a... Unicolor Windows 8.

I like the streaming and social options, but I'm not sold on the layout. I wonder which one the home screen is or if it's even shown?
by TheLaughinManFL Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 11:21 AM

It isn't blowing my mind.

Looks similar to the PS Store redesign, which I don't care for. Hopefully it won't feel as cluttered and laggy.
by MindFyre Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 11:24 AM

Looks just like the horrendous Playstation Store.
by tj2424 Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 11:24 AM

Looks pretty simple which is not a bad thing

Shoutout to Day Z on the DayZ gamertag.
by Warrior Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 11:25 AM

It looks sleek but I wish it had more a....nice looking interface.
by Zangmaster Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 11:26 AM

I like ps3 much more my beautiful dynamic wallpaper.
by Matt The Hedgehog Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 11:26 AM

I see a guy in the picture who has 2,738 trophies at a trophy level that's 16. So you can actually transport PSN data and trophies from your PS3 to PS4!!!!!!! I KNEW IT!! I KNEW SONY WAS LYING TO US!!!!
by Triumphant Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 11:30 AM

looks the same as PS3's current one and I'm cool with that.
by kyianshiba Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 11:32 AM

Im really only interested in the games. I know some people go crazy for user interface and other stuff like that but i buy consoles simply to play games on it.
by Cru Hunter Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 11:33 AM

From a Xbox user standpoint, it looks at least as good as the Xbox Dashboard. The blue and black background is calming, the composition is excellent, and the lack of ads (something MS plasters all over the dashboard) is less intimidating, oddly enough.
by Nickoliath Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 11:34 AM

So I guess all PS4 gamers are hot models that love smiling and looking good? The layout is a little cluttered and chaotic looking. I do like the idea of watching someone else play and being able to reply to comments though.
