<p>You can already access Xbox Live and browse through their marketplace from the comfort of your computer, but the PlayStation Store has never had that same service until recently; and even then, it was only in Europe. Now, however, that same feature will be brought to North America, as revealed by Sony Network Entertainment COO Shawn Layden.</p>
<p>Layden, <a href="http://ces.cnet.com/8301-34439_1-57562901/sony-chats-up-future-of-music-unlimited-playstation-store/">while talking to CNET at CES this year</a> &#8211;mostly about Sony Music Unlimited&#8211; revealed that the PlayStation Store will soon be accessible to NA gamers via the web sometime this month. The new browser store will allow customers to buy a game from the browser and have it automatically download to their system.</p>
<p>Personally speaking, this is something I&#8217;ve always wanted to have. Sometimes, you just don&#8217;t feel like turning on your PS3 in order figure out which games are available. I can&#8217;t tell you how many times I&#8217;ve checked the PS Store on my PS3, only to realize that I&#8217;d have to wait for the store to update in an hour or so. A browser version of the store would seem to save a nice amount of time.</p>
<p>What do you think? Will you be using the new browser version of the PlayStation Store? Let us know in the comments below!</p>
