Sony PSP 4.05 Firmware and XMB Support

The Sony PSP 4.05 firmware update will be coming any day now and we have been informed by Sony’s blog to expect new visualizers for music playback.

Many Playstation Portable gamers got excited when they said “and other features”, while this could mean a million things, some gamers are hoping for one of the features that the PS3 received in the last update.

The PS3’s XrossMediaBar has opened the doors for many more features to be expanded on that technology, PSP owners are hoping for in-game access to the cross media bar just like the PS3 now has.

While you cannot change every setting with XMB while playing a game, but you still get quick one click access to other options without having to leave the game and then select them.

The Sony PSP and PS3 have always been closely linked, so it seems natural that the PSP will get this feature soon and most likely in this next 4.05 update.

What other features would you like to see in PSP firmware 4.05? We would like improved Internet radio and the flash plug-ins for the web browser updated. We will update you when PSP 4.05 Firmware has been released.
