Life With Playstation Replaces Folding@Home
Life with playstation is now live and can be got by launching the Folding@Home application on PS3. Folding@home will now be known as Life with playstation and you can look at the weather and read the news etc etc

Life With PlayStation was leaked yesterday, but now it's officially available to download. Simply go to Network -> Folding@Home. You'll be prompted to download two update files. Once you're done, Folding@Home will be replaced on your XMB with Life With PlayStation. Don't worry -- you can still cure cancer. But now you'll be able to check the news, listen to music, and research the weather all from one app.

Re: Life With Playstation Replaces Folding@Home
LOL, I was just about to post this!
I've just updated mine.
Nice idea, but seems a bit lame at the moment... should be better once it gets more content & channels.
Good that Folding still runs when you're viewing the news/weather channel.

Think thats the point tbh m8, either to get more people running it or give people who do alot something to do
I think it has potential plus its better than the old version anyways lol.

Re: Life With Playstation Replaces Folding@Home
Did everyone find this as dull as I did? Basically it's a map or seemingly random cities around the world and you can get the top 5 stories mentioning that city from google news.

Re: Life With Playstation Replaces Folding@Home
I get the feeling they're trying to replicate what the Wii did from the start just not very well
