Update: A second concept video has now been added below!
PlayStation 3 Firmware update 3.0 added large gray boxes (see the third picture below) around each individual user ID, making for a cluttered look that simply didn't jive with the elegance of the XMB.
SCEE's PS3 Brand Manager
stated on the EU PlayStation.Blog that "updates to firmware don't always suit everyone's tastes."
Thankfully, the Friends list is something Sony is "looking into based on your comments."
Mark Bowles added, "We really do appreciate the feedback you guys give us, both positive and negative."
That being said, YouTube user
tubescorch has shared some of his own
PlayStation 3 XMB ideas along with a video below.
