Just a quick heads up the new system software is now available, its a bit slow at the moment but on the SCEE site theres a link to donwload to USB and install from that. Think its just a fix the bugs from the last one, hopefully fixing some peoples network problems and I think some issues with Warhawk.
 
A bit off topic, But only mildly! Update 2.00 is probably not far off now, It looks to be closing in. Wonder what sort of larger updates we'll see.

May hear more about it at TGS next week, but with all the other announcements supposed to be happening the Sony conference will last the whole week lol.

Nice to see Sony staying on the ball. I've not bumped into any issues at all from the last patch, but I know a few people who have so I am sure they will be glad to see this already so soon.
 
Just been forced to update to this. Looks like a small update, I haven't noticed any changes tbh.

Updates are not forced, you get a message but it doesn't force you to install it, or is it a mandatory update this time?

I think its mandatory if you connect to the PSN network (thats what I have found going to the store at least) on any update, however just playing a game offline, or dvd/br and it doesnt even tell you the software needs upgrading - good compromise I think considering the time it can sometimes take to d/l and install some updates

think 2.0 will include Home etc (due Oct isnt it?)
 
I hope so, Home looks interesting. If it can make sorting out OCUK sessions much easier like the Steam Community does, it can't come soon enough.
 
Just updated mine. They seem to be taking longer to install as we get each new update! Second update in a row without a proper changelist as well.

Quick question was downloading the NBA demo so decided to watch Casino royal on Blu Ray to burn some time, but when the blu ray starts it stops my download until I eject the movie???? Is that right I can play games while downloading

You can play games (offlline) or browse XMB view videos, pictures, music.

Background downloading stops when you play a game online or if you use Blu-ray.

I think DVDs can be played and downloads continue (can't remember).

surely its a GOOD thing its forced when online? Means all online games are gaurenteed to be at the same firmware - no intentional or otherwise advantage - just what I think anyway
