    • ]]>     In the new PS3 3.0 update, Sony has added PS3 Dynamic Themes in the PSN store. Currently there is only one dynamic theme available in the US PS3 Afrika Dynamik ThemePlaystation Store. The LittleBigPlanet PS3 Dynamic theme costs $2.99 and can be downloaded from the Playstation Store.

    Users in Japan can download the Afrika PS3 Dynamic theme for free from the Playstation Store.

    I like the new PS3 Dynamic themes feature, but I don’t think I want to pay $2.99 just to customize my theme. I’m sure there will be free themes added in the future as well, so I’ll hold off on purchasing the LittleBigPlanet theme that’s currently in the Playstation Store. PS3 users: Do you think it’s worth paying for Dynamic Themes, or will you wait for developers to release free themes on the Playstation Store?
