Post: Ps3 3.50 Firmware Update

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Update: According to ConnectedConsoles.com, Sony's Japanese Web site reveals the additional PS3 Firmware 3.50 features as follows, to quote:

"Facebook connectivity will increase and will allow users (at least from what we can gather from the translation) to post what game they're playing on the social networking site.

Moreover, you can now report messages from the XMB which will be a much-welcomed feature for those of you who recieved spam over PSN."

Sony has announced at TGS 2010 that the PS3 Firmware 3.50 update will arrive next week on September 21, and include 3D Blu-ray movie support as expected according to Engadget (linked above).

To quote from Examiner.com on this PS3 3D movie enabling system software update:

"Originally it was planned for a late October release, but Sony has bumped it up a month early and PS3 owners with 3D TVs should be excited about this.

While there may not be a large selection of 3D titles available for purchase today, this update shows that the PS3 is truly 'future proof'. With 3D gaming supported and soon movies, Sony is showing the PS3 can adapt to the market and support new changes and ideas."

Finally, Sony's Network Operations VP Eric Lempel has stated the following, to quote:

"We know that many consumers have purchased 3D TVs already and more of you will be purchasing them as the holidays approach – so we’re excited to offer this firmware update that makes all 38 million PS3s worldwide compatible with Blu-ray 3D discs.

This new feature expands the PS3’s 3D capabilities – as you may recall, we added the ability to play stereoscopic 3D games with the 3.30 firmware update in April.

While support for Blu-ray 3D discs is the primary new feature within the 3.50 update, there will be a few additional features. We’ll post more details on the blog prior to the firmware’s release, so check back here on Monday."

There still isn't much incentive to update, other than being able to sign into the PSN. If they want to stop some of the potential hackers, they need to add much-requested features such as cross-game chat.

You mean like tracking some of the messages and such through chats to find out what they are talking about?

Lol, no. I mean being able to talk to people via mic no matter what application they're using or what game they're playing. As it is now, everyone has to be in the same chat box to talk to someone, and if they leave the chat, they will no longer be able to talk to those people. Imagine if when you used Skype on your PC, you couldn't open any other applications or windows. That's what it's like on the PSN right now.
