PS3 Home Screen Feature Goes Viral
A lesser-known PS3 home screen feature is gaining popularity once again, catching many players by surprise with its existence. The moving particles visible on the console’s XrossMediaBar (XMB) actually correspond to the movement of the DualShock 3 controller, allowing players to interact with it by changing the direction of the particles.
Players Intrigued to Test the Feature
This unique discovery seems to resurface every few years, sparking interest among players who were previously unaware of this interactive element. A recent tweet by user realradec has reignited curiosity, prompting many to dust off their PS3 consoles and experiment with this hidden feature.
Interestingly, the video shared by realradec in the tweet can be traced back to a Reddit post from four years ago. While it remains unclear if realradec is the original creator of the video or simply sharing it, the tweet has successfully brought attention to this overlooked feature once more.
Discovering this feature may come as a surprise to many, as even I only stumbled upon it in 2012. Have you ever come across this interactive element on the PS3 home screen?
