Sony has announced at TGS 2010 that the PS3 Firmware 3.50 update will arrive next week on September 21, and include 3D Blu-ray movie support as
expected according to Engadget (linked above).
To quote from
Examiner.com on this PS3 3D movie enabling system software update:
"Originally it was planned for a late October release, but Sony has bumped it up a month early and PS3 owners with 3D TVs should be excited about this.
While there may not be a large selection of 3D titles available for purchase today, this update shows that the PS3 is truly 'future proof'. With 3D gaming supported and soon movies, Sony is showing the PS3 can adapt to the market and support new changes and ideas."
Finally, Sony's Network Operations VP Eric Lempel has
stated the following, to quote:
"We know that many consumers have purchased 3D TVs already and more of you will be purchasing them as the holidays approach - so we're excited to offer this firmware update that makes all 38 million PS3s worldwide compatible with Blu-ray 3D discs.
This new feature expands the PS3's 3D capabilities - as you may recall, we added the ability to play stereoscopic 3D games with the 3.30 firmware update in April.
While support for Blu-ray 3D discs is the primary new feature within the 3.50 update, there will be a few additional features. We'll post more details on the blog prior to the firmware's release, so check back here on Monday."
Sorry for my English use google translator does not speak English, you can use this on CFW 4.30 R-DEX "REBUG"?...
I hope it was worth it. I hope it was worth it, I don't hack my ps3, but I don't wanna use it till they patch this issue.
My guess is that Sony will now offer us alot of other things to convince us to Update and patch the security loophole. Move will need updates no doubt, And my guess is Sony will try and sneak in a hidden update within a game (if possible).
He he - no PSN - no spam - no need to update
And - I can update my wall on my own:"JB-ed PS3 ... Playing xyz ...
Also - does this antispam feature include also recently announced "advertising" via PSN messages?
Moreover, you can now report messages from the XMB which will be a much-welcomed feature for those of you who recieved spam over PSN.
