... and it looks like we might finally be getting a good browser for a console. Here's the main info:
.Tabs
.HTML5 Support
.No Flash
.Supports multitasking, so you don't have to quit a game to access it
.Can play videos on the TV whilst browsing continued on the gamepad
.Can browse just on the gamepad
.Screenshots and screenshot sharing
.When users pause a game and go into the internet browser, it remembers what game you were playing and searches for info, walkthroughs and reviews on it
.Full HD Youtube videos work
.All with a touchscreen, so much less crappy typing
What are your thoughts on it? What are your thoughts on the internet browsers consoles/handhelds have had in general?
As for my opinion, most of them have been crap. The Vita and the 3DS both had the opportunity to make an awesome one due to them both having a touch screen, but they turned out crap in both versions. This looks like it's going to buck that trend and finally make a viable alternative to having a laptop near you whilst console gaming.
Also, curtains. Basically you can hide ANYTHING behind a curtain and reveal it in a flurry of lights and applause. The possibilities are endless!
