Update: Unlike the
previous version, according to
Examiner.com PS3 Firmware Update version 3.41 unfortunately does not appear to contain any 'hidden' features this time.
Earlier today Sony
confirmed that PS3 Firmware Update 3.41 adds recommendations for games and videos on the PlayStation Store, and now it is officially released and available for download below.

PS3 Firmware Update 3.41 (EU)
It's important to note that while the PS3 3.41 update is released, the recommendations feature on Sony's PlayStation Store is slated to go live by the end of July, 2010.
As always, further details and any hidden PS3 features uncovered will be added as soon as they are available. Needless to say, if you are holding out in hopes for
PS3 Custom Firmware and don't use your PlayStation 3 online you may wish to skip this update.

How do you apply the patch for 3.41?
Having the same problems here. First noticed it while playing the Madden '11 Demo. On the cut scenes, it was skipping and running maybe 5-10 fps. Last night while playing MW2, I kept getting bumped and the game kept freezing. Also noticing more reads from the Blu-ray drive while playing the game.
So is it mandatory to get online? I know it probably is but there was an update awhile back that wasn't mandatory.
Yup aries2k6 - agreed - I also reckon it will be mandatory (in fact I reckon all new updates in the forseeable future will be mandatory to get online), but I would also like to know if it REALLY is mandatory? Can anyone confirm please?
