At last night's Sony Gamer's Day conference in San Francisco, the PlayStation creator confirmed more details about the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:PlayStation Network, PS3's online service.

As with PS2's online service, it will operate under an "open platform policy" - which means each game's developer can bring its own features and functionality to online, rather than 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft's approach with Live, where Live sets the rules for develo🔯pers to follow.

Obviously Sony sees this as a good thing but a downside is that moving between different PS3 games online may end up being completely different experiences, compared to the one-Live-fits-all 360 approach. The 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:PlayStation Network will hopefully make it less of a nightmare 🌌with a single Gamertag-like profile and the ability to visit the PlayStation Store from with🅠in games.

Shopping - for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:downloadable arcade games, add-ons to full-price games and demos, among other things - will be done with actual money, rather than money converted to 'points', which you'll be able to add to your account with prepaid gift cards or from a credit card🥂🎐.

And Sony maintains that "basic features will be offered absolutely free from day one," although it's still unclear as to which parts of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:PlayStation Network count as basic features. Unlike Xbox Live, t⭕hough, playing games online over the Network will definitely be free, along withꦗ web browsing.
