According to the latest rumors, firmware version 2.40 could include the massively wanted in-game Xross Media Bar. So what do we mean by in-game XMB? It means accessing the main menu of the Playstation 3 while playing a game. Why might you want to do this? To message friends, play some of your music, go on the internet etc. The list goes on.
Whoelse from sev1512.wordpress.com has been in contact with an insider and basically the insider said:
“2.40 should include:
* Access your XMB chat features from any game.
* 2D trophies from the XMB where 70% of current titles will support them straight away
* Video Coding and groundwork for the Movie Store (Out Sept)”
Whether thats true or not we will have to wait until firmware version 2.40 is released.
