Proto:PlayStation 3/0.85 XMB

This is a sub-page of Proto:PlayStation 3.

This page is rather stubbly and could use some expansion. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article?

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: What is the single tab under ‘Game’ supposed to be? I can’t tell if it’s a game or a downloaded file.

This article has just been started and needs the article basics added. Help us out and add them.

The prototype XMB is updated from 0.83, including differences.

Differences

• This version adds 3 new tabs, that being: Users, Game and Friends.
• New navigation sounds.
• The new icons were once again different from the finals, still having a mild gradient and feel.
• This version adds 3 new Settings, that being: System Update, System Settings and Date and Time Settings.
• Nothing is shown while on the Users tab, probably due to there being no system as a time.
• When entering XMB in game,Games tab only have "Quit Game". The rest of the menu shows nothing.

Settings Differences

• There is only 1 setting in System Settings > ◯ Button Behaviour, which was not in the final XMB.
• Speaking of System Settings, the icon for it has a simplified PS3 console, drastically different from the final's simple block.
• Surprisingly Date and Time settings seems pretty finalised, only missing Set Automatically.

Social Differences

• Sign Up was in the Friends tab instead of having it's own tab (PlayStation Network).
• Sign Up had an early icon, suiting better to the minimalistic feel of the menu instead of it being mostly 3D-esque along with the rest of the PlayStation Network tab.
• Add a Friend and Message Box would still show up even if you were not signed in.
• Add a Friend was different from the final icon, having a shadow of a tilted floating head.
