Lol, I wonder why.

I got 3.41 on one ps3 and 3.42 on another not sure on updating my media playback PS3 now due to the fact Sony have done this.

On a brighter note Sony are "apparently" going to charge for future firmware updates also

Serious? WTF?

OT: You still playing MW2? My 360 is repaired and on it's way back.

How can they do that without fragmenting the PS3 base? Some game fixes can only be done through firmware... :confused:

Or have you read about them charging for the next PlayTV software upgrade and extrapolated from that?

I was a little scared about my external HDD not working but it still works after the update.

Found this on IGN :

seems to be why they have disabled 3rd party controllers?

Yep Sony has blocked all third party devices with the new firmware out apparently.

Actually they've blocked all non sony endorsed third party controllers and only those made by datel and rocketfish will work since they have licenses to make third party controllers for the system.

Tested my XCM Cross Battle Adapter 2.0. Still works. Phew.
