All PS3 Trophies

SCEA’s announced PS3 Firmware 2.60, saying the update is “coming soon.”

The main additions to the console’s functionality are a photo gallery and DivX 3.11 support.

“The PS3 firmware update (v2.60) is designed primarily to enhance the system’s media capabilities,” PSN boss Eric Lempel said on the PSBlog.

“The key feature is a new Photo Gallery application, which delivers a suite of tools for sorting through and displaying your digital photo collection.”

Other additions include:

• Guest access to PlayStation Store – This enables non-PlayStation Network members to browse through the storefront to check out the latest games, demos, videos, etc.
• DivX 3.11 support – Videos in this format can now be played on PS3.

UPDATE: The software’s confirmed by both SCEE and SCEA as releasing tomorrow.

Alrighty, haven;'t had one of them in a while Shame about the DivX support though. Aren't we on like 7 now though?

I do NOT want anymore of these lame firmware updates. One of the previous ones crashed my blu ray drive in my PS3. Meaning I couldnt play any games, watch any blu rays, cds, dvds, etc. I almost had to pay for repairs of $150+. Luckily, Circuit City reprinted my receipt to show the purchase, making Sony repair it for free It is sad that they are closing because they were amazing and Best Buy just sucks at prices.

Yep that was the one that did crash most drives. I didnt have any problems either for a long time. Then another patch came out and that set off the prior firmware to crash the drive.

What a pointless update, i go on the ps3 to play games,  the photos music and shit is on my pc,

YESSSSS THANK YOU SONY!!!!!!!!
i couldn’t sync my trophies, but the new update let me and fixed my trophy error!!!! WOO HOO =D
photo gallery rocks too…..

@Shadeblack: No Sony did NOT issue cheaper or free repairs. The official statement that Sony released informed users of glitches in the firmware. They still deny that the firmware cause any crashes. Therefore, they repaired all broken drives for roughly $175 (after shipping costs, etc) to replace ALL the broken blu ray drives. I know this because I've went through it back in October 2008. Luckily I still had 3 weeks left on my warranty.

Overall, I am happy again. However, this will definitely be the last console I purchase from Sony. I will now go to Microsoft and Nintendo for all future consoles.

ur an idiot if ur going over to nintendo & microsoft.
nintendo is now a KIDS company ages 4-10 and geezers age 40-50 (sorry lol )
microsoft is very expensive and UN-RELIABLE. im pretty sure we wont see another CORE system until 2012 with Xbox 720
portable systems are next year PSP2 with RUMORED touch-screen……

I don't think Nintendo will go young with the next system. I believe they have learned that they can't compete in this market without the more hardcore violent games. Also, it would be wonderful if they would kill mario forever.

Now, Microsoft has learned that they did not plan the 360 that well. They were so wishful in pushing the 360 out before Sony or Nintendo. That backfired very quickly.

The point is that Sony is kicking out garbage in all areas of their production. Their TVs are the most commonly repaired TVs on the market, their blu ray players (and firmware) are rated close to the bottom of the charts, their computers crash constantly, and nothing else seems to be getting better for them. Once my PS3 dies again, I will repair it and then sell it with all 30 games that I have.

Oh BTW, Microsoft Xbox 360 is cheaper and has always been cheaper than Sony PS3.

looks like we got another argument on our hands.

First off, I will stand here and let someone say Sony has nothing going for them, when this is clealry speculation of this persons hatred of them.  Sony remains in the top 100 brands of the world in at #55, and #9 in Asia.  Don't you think they're doing SOMETHING right?

The PS3 is a great product that has NEVER given me, and many millions of other people any problems.  In fact, one PS3 crashing is comparable to over 50 Xbox 360s crashing.  Speaking of inferior products, the 360s red ring of death occurs 35% of all consoles sold within the first 12 months.  This is appualing.  How can you defend the 360, and then say “Sony is kicking out garbage”.  You sir, are clearly misinformed.

As for TVs and such… Well I can't comment myself on those because I prefer SAMSUNG.  But from over the years, Sony are the ones that often come out on top. 

Y'know, some say businesses and companies are run by 'descision making'.  I agree with this.  Every day, companies make vital descisions to esnure the company is always moving forward.  Do you really think Sony would be around today if they couldn't make good descisions?  They know what they're doing, so you can't badmouth them.  espciailly not on a ps3 orientated forum and website. lol.

On the other hand, I will soon be getting a 360 for myself! Well… maybe late this summer.  But anyway, i do want one, and hold no grudge towards it.  But I'm a logical person.  Logic suggests to get the better of everything in specific circumstances.  So a few years ago, I had to make a descision myself.  Should i get a PS3, or an Xbox360.  I looked at specifications of the two machines, prices of the two, the games available, the probability factor of one crashing, lifespam and so on.  I chose the PS3 because it ticked A LOT more boxes than the other.

Now back onto the TOPIC!

Firmware updates provide new and often exciting features.  Would you really want them to stop and say “You're not getting anything new… Ever again!” ?

I thought not, and rest case.

Hellz yea shadeblack. Agree with you on Tv. Samsung all the way.
