PlayStation 3 Update 3.40

Hopefully they scedule their firmware updates early in the morning and not during the day when we are most likely to be playing it.

I think never having to sit and wait for firmware updates to download is a huge plus. Would also be cool if it would automatically download the latest demo's while you sleep as well... but I think thats asking too much.
 
i never leave my Ps3 in standby when not in use as i turn it off at the plug so not very good for me.

Really? I always leave my stuff plugged in. Turning everything off at the plug sounds like too much of a commitment to make. I'm just not ready for that sort of thing yet.

Me too, though the extension lead shared by my ps3 also includes a digital video recorder which can get quite noisy even on standby (unless I am using the it, but I don't record many programs usually). I just got into the habit of switching things off when I won't be using them for several hours :)
 
Just to teach Sony a lesson for charging me to go online, ive thrown my PS3 into the bath whilst plugged in.

That stops them getting my £39.99 plus at the same time I can buy a new PS3 slim and have the benefits of a new console.

They didnt think of that did they when they released PSN Plus :p

At what section did you read that SONY are charging you to go online? :rolleyes:

Personally its going to take a lot more features than this to get £39.99 out of me. As long as they dont abuse the PSN+ to give other online players an advantage i dont mind.

Cross game chat sounds great but unless there are some built in features to stop people cheating in games then it could ruin online play. ie If you are playing S&D on MW2 you could tell your mates where they are.
 
When you're at work and the PS3 switches itself on, halfway through the update your wife/cleaner/children think "oh, he must have left it on" and switches it off.

One dead console.:D
 
you guys do realise the 60gb ps3 costs about £100 a year to leave on standby, no idea on the slimmer models

According to my electric meter thingy my ps3 costs 1p per hour when running unchartered 2. So if its on 24hrs a day 365 days a year its only £87.60 ish a year.. So would be a hell of a lot less in standby..
 
I would say a couple of pounds per year on standby.

lol, no i am not anti sony, read it on several internet pages many moons ago.

I could be wrong but it made me get into the habit of not using standby on anything bar sky.

If I am spouting bull then apologies
