Sony Rolls Out PS3 3.30 Firmware

Sony is keeping to its promise of adding continual improvements to its PlayStation 3 console. Sony's last update for the PS3 nixed the "Install Other OS" feature from "fat" PS3 -- the move resulted in one UK PS3 owner getting a refund of $129 from Amazon.

The latest firmware update doesn't bring back the removed features, but it does add support for 3D stereoscopic gaming. In addition, it adds a few improvements to the PS3's Trophies:

Trophy enhancements –- Now you can more easily sort trophies in the [Trophy Collection] and [Comparing Trophy] sections. Sorting can be done with [Trophy Collection] in the [Game Category] and also when comparing trophies with your friends in the [Friend Category]

o Trophy Folder (Title List) can be sorted by game name/ by title according to the date in which you earned your last trophy (ascending/descending)
o Add-on list (Group list) can be sorted by original/the date in which you earned your last trophy (ascending/descending)
o Trophy list can be sorted by original/trophy name/grade/date of obtaining the trophy (ascending/descending)

You can upgrade to the latest PS3 firmware using the System Update feature within the XMB.

Free PS3 Slams into a Sony Bravia TV at 50 mph

PlayStation 3 Hacked - free ps3 games - soon to be released

George Hotz, the 20 year old guy, best known for cracking Apple’s iPhone says he’s done it again, this time with Sony’s PlayStation 3.

In a his blog post George Hotz said that after a five-week effort, he’d finally managed to run his own software on the PlayStation 3, which typically only plays digitally signed software that is approved by Sony.

I have read/write access to the entire system memory, and HV level access to the processor. In other words, I have hacked the PS3. The rest is just software. And reversing. I have a lot of reversing ahead of me, as I now have dumps of LV0 and LV1. I’ve also dumped the NAND without removing it or a modchip.”

He pulled off the feat using “very simple hardware, cleverly applied, and some not so simple software,” he added.

Hotz received widespread media attention in 2007 when he developed a technique that allowed the iPhone to run on any wireless network. In the U.S., iPhones are sold exclusively for use with AT&T’s network.

Hotz’s new technique could allow PlayStation 3 users to run new, unauthorized software on their systems. Such software could include the Linux operating system or older PlayStation 2 games, which don’t work on the PlayStation 3. But the hack could also give gamers a way to run pirated software on their systems too.

PlayStation fans will have to wait some time before they get to see Hotz’s code, however. In his blog post, he said he isn’t revealing how he pulled off his trick just yet, in part because he’s worried that Sony may find a way to disable his technique.

That’s what Apple tried to do with the Jailbreak hack. The company has repeatedly disabled the Jailbreak code in software updates to its devices, but hackers have responded each time with new techniques to keep the phones unlocked.

Hotz did say that he was hoping to find and publish the device’s decryption keys, which could help others develop and run unauthorized software for the machines.

New PS3 Streaming Service Offered By Netflix

Netflix disc must remain in PS3 to access Netflix service

Yesterday Netflix announced that its streaming service would be available for the PS3. Netflix is offering a reservation program that will send the required disc to PS3 users when the software is available next month. Joystiq went directly to Netflix for more details on the service.

Joystiq reports that the special disc does in fact have to remain in the PS3 for the streaming service to work. The reason is that Netflix doesn't have a XMB solution in place at the moment and won't have one until sometime in 2010.

Netflix reports that the application was developed with help from the Sony team. The reason Netflix went with a disc based solution rather than waiting for integrated capability was the issue of timing. Netflix told Joystiq, "Netflix members and PS3 owners have really wanted a way to instantly watch movies and TV episodes streamed from Netflix via the PS3 system. The instant streaming disc represented the fastest and easiest way to let them do this."

Netflix reports that late next year next year, “We expect to have an embedded solution available for PS3s via a system software update slated for release through the PlayStation Network."

With the exclusive claims that Microsoft was making many are wondering if the disc-based solution was a way to get around the "exclusive streaming" claims Microsoft touted. Netflix says that the agreement with Sony does not conflict with its agreements with Microsoft. That "exclusive streaming" claim is likely the reason PS3 owners won’t see an embedded solution from Netflix until late in 2010.

Sony Giving Away 10000 Free PS3s in Australia

SYDNEY, NSW: Sony Australia has this morning announced an extension of its twice-successful free-PS3 promotion, with the company releasing a further 10,000 free PlayStation 3s with the purchase of selected Bravia LCD TVs.

Since first launching this promotion in July 2008, Sony has reported strong sales of its Bravia models, and a strong connection with consumers looking to acquire a TV and a home entertainment solution at the same time.

As part of this promotion, which runs concurrently with Sony’s 3-year warranty offer, Sony deputy general manager of consumer products marketing, Toby Barbour, is promising consumers they will receive their PS3 before Christmas, as long as the purchase is validated before 1 December 2009.

“It can be hard to choose the perfect gift at Christmas time, particularly something that the whole family will enjoy. While high definition TVs are a significant purchase at any time of year, they are expected to be the Christmas present of choice for many households this year; with a combination of appealing prices, latest technologies, as well as fantastic bonus offers all available. People are looking for value for money, quality purchases in light of a year of tough financial circumstances,” Barbour said.

Sony is also giving away Blu-ray movies and games at the moment. Interest parties are directed to follow Sony on Twitter or sign up to Sony Australia’s Facebook page.

Kmart offering free PS3 copies of Assassin’s Creed II on Black Friday

Following news of Kmart’s Black Friday leaks that we told you about earlier, we have picked up on a deal that you might not be aware of. The retailer will be offering free PS3 copies of Assassin’s Creed II for customers who purchase an Assassin’s Creed Bloodlines PSP Pack.

Well ok, the PSP Pack may set you back $199.99 and its no PSP Go either, but we don’t see any of the other retailers offering any sort of similar deal.

If you don’t mind an ‘old’ PSP-3000 console, then this could turn out to be a very popular deal for some, as it’s still a free PS3 copy of ACII at the end of the day.

If you are interested in this deal, it will be available over Black Friday weekend ( November 27th and 28th), starting from 4am - Noon.

You can see the Kmart leak with this info here. Let us know if you plan on buying this.

Smash an Egg and Get a Free PS3 Slim



Sony set up a bit of an ‘egg-hunt’ in Dublin, Ireland recently in order to promote their new PS3 Slim high def game console.

As a social marketing campaign, giant eggs holding PS3 Slims were placed around the city. Those that actually had enough nerve to crack the eggs got to take home one of the new consoles. Sure beats chocolate!

PS3 Slim Egg Hunt

Nice idea. Who would have thought that you would ever get rewarded for the destruction of someone else’s property?

After getting wind of this, gamers [world-wide] will certainly think twice about passing by any newly constructed statues, or random objects standing in the centre of town.

Free PS3 with a Bravia Lcd Tv Promotion Giveaway!

Sony is ready to relaunch the free PS3 with a BRAVIA LCD TV promotion again. Giving away 25,000 PlayStation 3’s with select BRAVIA’s. When Sony says it is doing a relaunch, it means a relaunch with video footage of a PS3 being hurled into an innocent LCD TV at 22 metres per second.

It was pretty much successful last year, and with the new impetus of the new PS3 Slim Sony is ready to make new TV purchasers happy by adding a 120GB PlayStation 3 to their Christmas stocking.

Beginning at 12:01 am on Thursday 22nd October the 25,000 PS3 Slim countdown begins.

“Entering the Christmas period after a year of financial pressure, now more than ever consumers are looking for quality purchases that deliver value for money. With a BRAVIA LCD TV, not only are you buying unparalleled manufacturing quality, but you also now have the confidence of knowing your investment is supported by our extended three year warranty promotion. Our BRAVIA LCD TV, PS3 and extended warranty combination is undoubtedly the best offer we have ever had in the market,” said Toby Barbour, Deputy General Manager of Consumer Products Marketing at Sony Australia.

PS3 Slim with 250GB Drive Coming in November for $350

Only $50 more to double PS3 Slim's capacity

Sony recently introduced the PlayStation 3 Slim in September. Available in a single 120GB model, it sold very well due to a new $299 price. The company states that it sold over 1 million PS3 units worldwide in the three weeks following the PS3 Slim launch.

The price cut was made possible by shrinking several components, most notably a 45nm version of the Cell processor. Overall, the PS3 Slim is 32 percent smaller than the original PS3 and consumes 34% less power. The console still loses money for Sony, but the platform as a whole is profitable as game licenses are sold to developers.

Seeking to capitalize on that success in time for the Christmas shopping season, Sony has announced a new PS3 Slim model on the official PlayStation blog. Consumers will be able to purchase a PlayStation 3 Slim with a 250GB hard drive starting November 3. The new model will sport the same internal components as the 120GB model, but will sell for $350.

PS3 Slim outsells Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii down under

Sony Australia reveals PS3 Slim console has sold "in excess of 60,000" units in the month and a half since launch, beating both the Xbox 360 and Wii for that time period.

Following the news last month that Sony sold 40,000 PlayStation 3 Slim units in the console’s first two and a half weeks in the Australian market, it appears the publisher has something to smile about yet again.

The latest sales figures from Sony indicate the AU$499 PS3 Slim has now sold “in excess of 60,000 units” in Australia, outselling both the Xbox 360 and the Wii since its Australian launch on September 3.

“I can confirm that in excess of 60,000 units of the PS3 120GB have been sold since launch,” a Sony spokesperson said. “I can also confirm that since the launch of the new model on September 3 [in Australia], total sales for the period since introduction have outperformed our competition.”

Sony also reported that despite low PSP Go sales of just over 1,000 units during launch week, the new console uplifted sales for the PSP platform as a whole in Australia.

“The PSP Go launch week resulted in a solid first week volume uplift of 100 percent for the PSP platform as a whole in Australia; this also includes PSP-3000 sales and PSP software sales. Strong IP lined up for the PSP platform has assisted this.”

PS3 Firmware 3.0 to Be the Last Major Firmware Update of 2009


Sony will release the PS3 Firmware 3.0 update on September 1st for the PlayStation 3 console.

Firmware 3.0 completely revamps the information board, introduces premium avatars and animated themes and a variety of other tweaks.

While Firmware 3.0 is the last major update the PlayStation 3 will see during 2009, G4TV (linked above) recently asked Sony if this was the last update period for the calendar year.

To quote: “This is a big and significant update, so you would be correct to assume that [it's the last major update for 2009],” said PlayStation Network operations director Eric Lempel to G4TV.

He did, however, note that the release of a few smaller updates throughout the remainder of 2009 is still a possibility.

New PS3 Themes Look Incredible

If you haven't already seen footage of the new PS3 update coming soon from PSN you really should check out the new XMB themes that they will be launching soon. As shown on a video walkthrough of their new dashboard coming this September they demoed a Little Big Planet theme with animations of sackboy running and other cool stuff like the feature of the theme changing throughout the day. It makes the 360's themes look stale and boring in comparison!

Check out these screenshots of the incredible new Little Big Planet theme on PSN:

New Smaller Cell Processor on PS3 Slim

GPU on Sony PS3 Slim may stay the same

Sony on Tuesday announced that it was upping the ante in the next-generation console war, unleashing the slender PS3 slim. Eschewing the original PS3's bulbous design, the new console reportedly will drop Linux support and also won't support PS2 games. The console does bring a greater capacity 120 GB drive onboard, though, a step up from the 80 GB drive in its predecessor (low-end version).

Now another perk of the new console has emerged -- an improved CPU. According to a video posted on Sony's U.S. website, the new console will feature a 45 nm updated version of the Cell processor based on IBM's Power architecture, jointly developed by IBM, Sony, and Toshiba. The new processor will be cooler and use less power, and is also cheaper to make than the 65 nm processor found in the old PS3.

PS3 Slim Officially Announced, Will Go On Sale September 1

Sony finally announces what we're all known about for months

Sony today officially announced the PS3 Slim at GamesCom. As previously reported, the PS3 Slim will retail for $299.99 when it is launched during the first week of September. Sony says that the PS3 Slim will have all the functionality of the currently available PS3 models and will be available in a single 120GB SKU.

The PS3 Slim is 32 percent smaller than the original and consumes 34% less power.

In addition to the PS3 Slim, Sony also confirmed that the existing 80GB and 160GB models are getting a $100 price drop starting tomorrow. The prices will be in effect until the stock is depleted. So if you are impatient and need to have a PS3 right now (or just prefer the “fatter” look), this is your chance to to grab the current model. However, it may be wise to just wait for the cooler-running PS3 Slim to arrive in a few weeks.

In other news, Sony also announced Firmware 3.0 for the PS3. It adds a number of new features including a "What's New" section for PlayStation news, a redesigned Friends List, PlayStation Store shortcuts, and an updated trophy system.

RUMOUR: PS3 Slim Coming Very Soon!



We haven't heard much about the PS3 slim since E3, but that doesn't mean it's been entirely quiet out there -- the hot rumor today is that Sony's signed manufacturing agreements with both Foxconn and Pegatron to build the revised model in time for July delivery. That much we believe, since it's been backed up by a couple different credible reports, but here's where it gets totally insane: there's a suggestion that the slim will be the last PS3 model of this generation, and that a next-gen console based on Sony's motion controller is due in spring 2010. We don't buy that at all, since the PS3 is just entering its prime and Sony was clear that the motion controller was for the existing console, so we think this rumor is getting garbled down the wire -- it's far more likely that the slim is being prepped for an August launch to coincide with those rumored price cuts, and that new PS3 bundles that include the motion controller are set to drop next year. That's just our take on the matter, though -- we'll see how things shake out.

Activision CEO "Likes to Make Noise" About PS3 Price Cuts

Sony CEO dismisses Activision CEO's threat to stop supporting PS3

Sony is taking a hard hit in the current poor economy. The firm announced a massive loss last quarter and sales for many of its divisions are at historic lows. Sony is also under lots of pressure for it gaming division to perform.

In June, Activision CEO Robert Kotick put pressure on Sony CEO Howard Stringer to cut the price of the PS3 console. Kotick said at the time that Activision might have to reconsider developing games for the PS3 is price cuts weren't made. Sony issued a retaliatory press statement reading, "We enjoy healthy business relationships with and greatly value our publishing partners and are working closely with them to deliver the best entertainment experience."

Both Stringer and Kotick are at the Allen & Co conference in Idaho this week. Reuters reports that when Stringer was asked directly about Kotick's statements Stringer said, "He [Kotick] likes to make a lot of noise. He's putting pressure on me and I'm putting pressure on him. That's the nature of business."

Stinger was also asked about the logic of not cutting prices on the PS3 console. Stringer replied, "I [would] lose money on every PlayStation I make [if prices were cut made] -- how's that for logic."
