QuoteWelcome back to BRB Blu, the premier Sony podcast from BigRedBarrel.com. This week PacManPolarBear and Frawlz are joined by Esmeralda to discuss Okami HD, Puppeteer, the new Playstation Store, the PS3 super slim, da roomahs, and a few more nuggets of Sony goodness. We have bonus content for BRB iPhone and Android app users.
We appreciate you taking time out of your day to listen to the show. For your convenience, you can simply download the MP3 by clicking HERE or if you’re one of those “set it and forget it” types, you can subscribe via iTunes, RSS, or Zune and stay in “real time.”

I played the multiplayer from Ascension at Gamescom and wasnt really exited. It was just so unnessesary and imho incredibly boring. But if you have fun with it, so be it.
And Esme and Frawlz were a great combo, this should happen more often.

Is the 3 hr endurance race in Gran Turismo 5 during Extra Life? I would love to be the third driver for that, but I'll be at Road Atlanta that weekend for a 10 hour race.
If the race is not during Extra Life, here are my stats in GT5:
Game Progress= 99%
Total Wins= 818
Distance Driven= 74,000+ miles
60 Gold Trophies, 0 Silver, 0 Bronze, Super License
89% PSN Trophies
A-spec & B-spec level 40

I personally do not want Sony to touch the XMB. Its fine the way it is. Its perfectly functional, without ads every second selection.
The Store however needs an update. It is slow to load and difficult to find anything. Also PLEASE let us sort and categorise our Download Lists. Trying to download FFVII again on the Vita was a nightmare as the game was near the bottom of my list and I had to scroll through the entire thing.

Esme, the first 3rd party game to get a same day PSN/retail release was actually Mass Effect 2 almost 2 years ago. Not a whole lot, but a few have done it since

The XMB doesnt need a complete overhaul but it definetly needs an update. It was fine when it first launched but its since become too cluttered and filled with unnecesary icons. I wish there was an option to 'hide' stuff you dont use or need to see there. I also think there needs to be a way to alphabetize the settings menu bc I hate how it takes me a while to find stuff bc that stuff isnt in any logical order. A search feature would also be welcomed to quickly find content on your PS3 as well as get to options that are buried under different tabs
But IA on your second point. The download list is the worst thing about the store. I cant believe theres no way to categorize and properly sort through and search your downloaded content

Yes the endurance race is taking place during ExtraLife. It's too bad you'll be unable to drive for us, as I'm still looking for a third driver for the BRB team. However, we may hold a second GT5 event for the ExtraLife make up day later on for those who could not participate on the official date.

Aww, man, it's such a drag when Rothbart's not on the show! Rothbart brings such intelligent analysis of the Playstation scene while subtly insinuating dick-joke after dick-joke and it's just not the same without him :'( It's like, I don't even want to listen because I know all the other hosts are gonna suck, but I do anyhow just so I can bitch about it later on the forums! I'll wait for you, Sean!!!
Thanks for the shout-out, Esme. And I agree, I should totally change my name to "zombies are krauts" 
it would be pretty appropriate as my fiancee is German...and a zombie.
Great show guys!
Now, I don't want to tempt fate, but I think everything is going to be totally great, forever!

You might think so, but unfortunately they don't need to pay royalties for referring to a political movement. Otherwise, I'd be so out of here!

Always nice to have the team back together.
