We’ve come a long way to guessing and groping for the PS3’s interface — but exactly what do we have in there? It really doesn’t matter that you’re buying it or not, but you can check out the video here to see a little more of Sony‘s little next-gen marvel. Sony has finally revealed a full list of interface icons in its Japanese PS3. The image above is captured via Gizmodo. You can see that each icon actually corresponds to the following list:

  • User: Save your game data and browser preferences for each individual user.
  • Settings: Make using the XMB (Cross Media Bar) convenient with individual settings for sound, BD/DVD, time/date, music, network, chat, display, security, etc.
  • Photo: View slideshows in full HD. Download pictures as well.
  • Music: Listen to CDs or Super Audio CDs on the Multi-Channel. Play music on the HDD.
  • Video: Enjoy full HD with Blu-ray Disc. It tops out at 7.1 ch.
  • Game: Play PSX/PS2 games on the PS3.
  • Network: Connect to your PLAYSTATION Network account, download and hit the PLAYSTATION Store. There’s an icon for “Remote Play” as well.
