When the time comes around for another major update on the PlayStation 3 software we're dazzled with a trunk load of features that consumers want and also more often than not, comes with a few problems that different users are confronted with the system. The initial idea of firmware updates that don’t bring new features, and instead fix security and bug issues will only keep PS3 users happy for a certain amount of time.
I'm more than positive Sony will be implanting a lot of PS Vita features on the next major PS3 update, but many PS3 users still want minor things like a black default theme option, or even better a color wheel would be amazing. The web browser itself also needs some improvements, although some users would like the choice of another browser like Google Chrome or Opera.

Cross game chat isn't possible on PS3.
Update: A Sony representative reached out to us, saying "Cross-game voice chat was not announced as part of PlayStation Plus." The feature was not officially announced at E3, however sources familiar with the situation say that this incentive will be announced at a later date. "The new offering provides subscribers features such as frequent discounts on PlayStation Store content, free and exclusive access to select games, full game trials, early invitations to select betas of popular games, and new functionality such as content downloads and updates which will automatically be "pushed" to the PS3 system."

When the time comes around for another minor update on the PlayStation 3 software we're dazzled with a trunk load of features that consumers want and also more often than not, comes with a few problems that different users are confronted with the system. The initial idea of firmware updates that don’t bring new features, and instead fix security and bug issues will only keep PS3 users happy for a certain amount of time. So we wanted to look at the future and what PS3 Firmware 4.0 could bring, which willbe the next major update.
I'm more than positive Sony will be implanting a lot of PS Vita features on the next major PS3 update, but many PS3 users still want minor things like a black default theme option, or even better a color wheel would be amazing.
