[FunkyPajamas]

I just got a prompt, downloading now. Not sure what it does, there aren't any news about it anywhere.

I'll update as soon as I find anything.

Thank you Loudninja. Mods, please feel free to change the title to something a bit more informative.

[DMeisterJ]

PS2 b/c and Cross-game chat.

 

[StuBurns]

Shit, worst timing imaginable. I don't want to update in case I get banned but I need the Cathy demo and Versus trailer.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

PS2 b/c and Cross-game chat.

It also prints.

Money.

Not really.

 

[Game2Death]

I'd guess nothing you'd notice.

 

[slider]

Surely it gives you a stream of the PS Meeting.

 

[Gravijah]

wow they added printer support

 

[Takao]

watch out there must be the psp2 keys in there

 

[h3ro]

wow they added printer support

and they fixed the clock!

 

[Cataferal]

It's crunch time.

 

[Valkyr Junkie]

Shit, worst timing imaginable. I don't want to update in case I get banned but I need the Cathy demo and Versus trailer.

You are already banned.

 

[AndyD]

I bet it adds whatever will get announced in 2 days.

Likely some stuff related to PS rewards. Thats my guess.

 

[angelfly]

will wait for confirmation of jailbreak staying in place

 

[Emitan]

It's apparently larger then the last few updates. Or my internet suddenly got really slow.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

20%, it seems to be a small update.

old feature

old joke.

 

[Dead Prince]

makes your ps3 semen proof because they are going to release TLG Demo.

 

[Always-honest]

Shit, worst timing imaginable. I don't want to update in case I get banned but I need the Cathy demo and Versus trailer.

why would you get banned?

 

[StealthGoblin]

Every icon is changed to a picture of Ken Kutaragi's face.

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Is it required to access PSN?

I guess it will be interesting to see which of my friends stop signing in at this point.

 

[StuBurns]

You are already banned.

why would you get banned?

I tried that first 'unlocked' firmware with package installation. I don't have it now and never logged in with it though. We'll see, I'm installing anyway.

 

[Massa]

Fucking finally.

 

[vocab]

why would you get banned?

CFW I'm assuming. I would bet 100% that this firmware address something related to the CFW.

 

[angelfly]

20%, it seems to be a small update.

old joke.

my stealth edit wasn't quick enough

 

[FunkyPajamas]

makes your ps3 semen proof because they are going to release TLG Demo.

No firmware could protect the ps3 from the Jizz Tsunami that will come forth upon TLG's demo release.

my stealth edit wasn't quick enough

Haha, sorry! I've got nothing better to do while my ps3 updates.

 

[h3ro]

It's apparently larger then the last few updates. Or my internet suddenly got really slow.

[Metalmurphy]

Isn't it supposed to tell you want it does before you update?

No Blog post so it's likely a security patch, possibly to try and fix the jailbreak problem.

 

[Ploid 3.0]

Oh nooooooooo why did I accept update, console don't work.

(Kidding don't ban me bro)

I'm Joking in case it wasn't clear.

 

[Erebus]

Does it add remote play support for the PSP2?

 

[ZeroRay]

Some shit that detects CFW I presume.

 

[Gravijah]

Does it add remote play support for the PSP2?

it makes your ps3 the psp2

 

[Emitan]

My internet is...random.

 

[Weenerz]

Glad I updated my new 160gb to 3.55 today so I can CFW it.

 

[Chesskid1]

i'm guessing this update has nothing to do with CFW, they are probably just adding/tweaking features, fixing bugs, etc

 

[Always-honest]

I tried that first 'unlocked' firmware with package installation. I don't have it now and never logged in with it though. We'll see, I'm installing anyway.

Ahh. glad i din't go with that little hype.

 

[yencid]

must be for the conference amirite?

 

[Psychotext]

Welp, that's me done with GT5 online for the moment then. lol

 

[SolidSnakex]

It's a security patch.

 

[plasmasd]

Not sure what it does, there aren't any news about it anywhere.

Keeps CFW peeps offline

Nada, as far as I know they rarely do. They only show the EULA and that's it. Sometimes they post info on the PSN blog, but most of the time they just say stuff like "compatibility/security".

 

[I AM JOHN!]

You are already banned.

 

[Metalmurphy]

Welp, that's me done with GT5 online for the moment then. lol

And just before the new seasonals.

All going according to plan!

 

[Fersis]

I want new features dammit !!!

And no , i wont jailbreak my PS3. DEAL WITH IT.

 

[Majine]

Someone without an OG 60GB try a PS2 disc.

 

[Dug]

Damn, was just gonna boot up my ps3 to play some LBP2 to play online too. :\

 

[Emitan]

Keeps CFW peeps offline

I really want to put CFW on my system, but I also want PSN access. Dammit, Sony. Just because I want to use homebrew doesn't mean I don't want to buy PSN games!

PS3 System Software Update (v3.56)

A new PS3 system software update, v3.56, will be released soon. This is a minor update that adds a security patch.

[Wario64]

Unlocks PS2 emulator to coincide with PS2 PSN library announcement for PSP2

 

[Family Fry]

Apparently it restores the boot from disc option..oh wait.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

Argh, just gave me an error: 80710723 and my ps3 restarted before I could do anything. No CFW here. Goddamn Sony if you brick my PS3 I will come to your headquarters and seppuku you all.

 

[Anth0ny]

Damn, was about to jailbreak my PS3 today. I'll wait and see how this pans out..
