life with playstation, sony's updated folding@home app just got a cool new expansion today. with update 1.20, cancer-stopping ps3 owners will be able to watch streaming full-screen game trailers while the ps3 chugs away, unfolding proteins. the experience is rather sleek and videos load almost instantly, taking advantage of the same streaming player that ''''''what's new'''''' and the playstation store both use.

it appears the content is automatically gathered from the playstation store, and it allows you to watch all the available content in a single continuous stream. while we don't see this feature being used too often, it's perfect for those gamestop employees that want to have video looping on their ps3 kiosks.
