Today saw the release of firmware 2.30 for the Sony Playstation 3. This update consists of a change to the Playstation Store regarding functionality and layout. The Playstation Store will no longer use the PS3's built in browser, resulting in faster navigation. There has also been a change to the layout of the Store providing improved navigation and categorization.
Personally, I'm impressed with the Playstation Store update and find it much easier to use. Please post your thoughts... |

We (GN) would like to announce that as we speak a new GamersNation is currently in production. For those of you who are part of the GamersNation Facebook community, you are already aware of this news and indeed the development of a newer, more shiny GamersNation.
So why the change?
GamersNation's functionality for its users is severaly limited regarding access of specific content. With this I mean news items that are submitted are not categorised or more curicially, presented to you the user in a way we feel would provide an ultimate gaming service. For example, within our current website, searching for a news item regarding a specific game or event displays only news items related to your search string. All content within the new website in production categorises each entry, so searching for a specific game or other item also displays all and any other content that is related from screenshots to videos and articles to achievements on a single page.

It doesn't seem that long ago since Christmas, at least not for me. But once again we come to this time of year, full of festive cheer and on behalf of GamersNation I would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
I would also like to announce GamersNation's Christmas Present to you all (although due to the Royal Mail, it wont be delivered on time). Yes, that's right, over the last few months the GamersNation Team, particularly Red and Fronty, have been hard at work on a BRAND NEW GamersNation Website - conveniently named "GN3".
Although full details can't be disclosed at the moment, we can promise a whole new level of user interaction, content and features which we are sure you will enjoy!
We look forward to seeing you all on GamersNation in the New Year and remember, don't eat too much Turkey! |

The eSport Symposium discussed many key issues regarding eSports as a whole including how best to take advantage of this exploding market as well as the success South Korea has experienced regarding the "Branding" of gamers.

Revolution? Yeah, seems that something is about to happen on the 7th of August. The image below is being showed on EA's official site for C&C3. What it al means I don't know yet. Could be a new expansion for the game or a patch to be released. You can be sure of one thing and that is that we will inform you the moment we know.
