shutdown timer and multiple save copy

ok i guess, dont know what else i want

[Stormwatch]

I wonder if this will fix my 14% installation error. Whenever I download a large game and go to install it the install will fail at 14%.

[corporate cheerleader]

About time. Copying saves one by one was such a goddamn pain.

[Konosuke]

After all this time without a system update, this is it? I'm sad.

[androvsky]

For not having had any sort of firmware update since February, that's a whole lot of not very much.

(in before "there's an update every time I turn on my PS3!")

[LiK]

FINALLY!

ditto

[jett]

I'm tired of these stupid updates.

[anddo0]

It's about time. Backing up multiple saves is such a pain.

[Lagspike_exe]

Awful update, asidefrom the Save Game stuff.

[9thwonder]

Awwww and I got geeked and finally thought we would be able to see vita trophies on ps3.

[herod]

Does the web browser score more than a 3DS in the acid3 test yet?

[Live Free or Die]

I'm tired of these stupid updates.

Sell your PS3 then?


Awesome update. Good to see Sony always improving the PS3/PSN.

[edgefusion]

This is it for the XMB really isn't it? I have to admit I was kind of hoping for some kind of tidied up XMB or redesigned XMB announcement during E3. Sony have shown a general apathy toward the interface for so long now I think this is it for PS3 and we won't see anything new until whatever PS4 has.

[LiK]

I'm tired of these stupid updates.

it's actually useful stuff this time.

[iceatcs]

I'm tired of these stupid updates.

Yeah we're really miss it. It has been too long no updates. Happy day GAF!

[Totobeni]

finally

6 years later,not bad for SCEJ.

[ShinobiFist]

So hype! Love me some updates!

[androvsky]

Does the web browser score more than a 3DS in the acid3 test yet?

It has since February, or is the 3DS higher than 92/100? PS3 is 99/100 last I checked.

This is it for the XMB really isn't it? I have to admit I was kind of hoping for some kind of tidied up XMB or redesigned XMB announcement during E3. Sony have shown a general apathy toward the interface for so long now I think this is it for PS3 and we won't see anything new until whatever PS4 has.

Yeah, pretty much. I'm sure you could get jeff_rigby to explain how there's going to be a major overhaul in the fall, but he was saying that last year too. And even if there is a huge update, it'll still probably have the XMB as the interface.

[BosSin]

Time to do some detective work and see if any changes have been put in place for more improvements on the web browser, where art thou jeff rigby!?

[zerokoolpsx]

It's about time. Backing up multiple saves is such a pain.

About damn time.

[Snuggler]

My kinda update.

At least it adds a few things other than increased software stability. It's been awhile since we've seen any new features or improvements.

[shagg_187]

FINALLY!

Yep! Hopefully this makes cloud saving that much easier.

[phosphor112]

Waiting for a new web browser still.

believe.

[AkumaZetto]

I miss two things:
1. Ability to reorder the items that I'm downloading
2. Search through my download list

[Carl]

EVERY FUCKING TIME I TURN MY PS3 ON THERE'S AN UPDATE

[spats]

Where's this info from?

[salromano]

Where's this info from?

Seconded. Not on PS Blog or anything. Didn't get any pressers.

[Andrefpvs]

I was getting anxious, all this time without a new firmware update!

The new features are welcome, but one must wonder if we'll ever see a significant firmware update for PS3 ever again.

[Tagg9]

It's been awhile since the last update, hasn't it?

Could have used this last week! Traded in my old PS3 for a new one. Would have saved so much time backing up my saves.

At least it'll help when copying my saves back to the PS3. Never really got around to it yet

[Claude]

FINALLY!

.

[shagg_187]

Seconded. Not on PS Blog or anything. Didn't get any pressers.

Looks genuine to me. Remember, the new stereo headset requires 4.20 so...

* BassImpact™ technology, 7.1 virtual surround sound & on-screen headset updates are only available on the PS3™ system and require system software version 4.20 or later.

[androvsky]

Hopefully they'll sneak in the easy stuff like seeing Vita trophies and online status.

Heck yes!

[strafer]

What we need is a screenshot feature.

[The_Hitcher89]

When my files go to the cloud, it always says 'Some items could not be transferred due to lack of space,' even though I've only used aout 14mb of the 150mb provided. Anyone else get this?

[dallow_bg]

Backing up all my saves whenever it's up in one fell swoop.

Thank goodness.

[Carl]

What we need is a screenshot feature.

Already is one. Has been for years.

It's up to devs to use it, so no one does.

[salromano]

Eh, you can never be too sure. Just want some confirmation is all.

[Wario64]

NeoGAF ACTIVELY trying to FOOL games journalists again.

Bait taken, job well done guys

[krae_man]

I miss two things: 1. Ability to reorder the items that I'm downloading 2. Search through my download list

3)The ability to put install files into folders
4)Make it so you don't need twice the free hard drive space of a games size to install it. If you want to download a 15gb game, you need 30gb of free space to install it. They fixed this issue on the PSP, yet apparently decided "yeah, we don't need to fix that on the PS3".

[dosh]

Still no way to clean that trophies list heh :/

[shagg_187]

Eh, you can never be too sure. Just want some confirmation is all.

True, but why would someone create a fake thread about firmware update and risk account ban?

[EatinOlives]

Is that Wireless Stereo Headset item supposed to fix the horrible "mic feedback" they stupidly put in earlier this year that completely ruined the headset sound? I'm interested in that headset but passed on it because they completely fucked it up. If it's fixed I can put it back on my wishlist ;)

[shaneskim]

Ah man, trust it to be two days after I backed up all my saves to the cloud haha. Great feature though.

[KennyLinder]

PS+ automatically gets the patch doesn't it? I turned mine on the other day and it had downloaded loads of game patches. Does it do the same for system firmware?
