183w ago - Pelfast President John Bates announced today that a free 'Kreios Resurge' Comet Crash PS3 update is available now on PSN.

To quote: Ever since we released Comet Crash for PS3 on PSN, we've been receiving a stream of emails from fans requesting new features. We're excited to satisfy a bunch of these requests in a content patch that's available right now.

The update introduces new levels, new maps, new battle settings and a new difficulty mode. The fresh additions showcase the best of what Comet Crash has to offer, while making sure fans have plenty to keep them warm during the holidays.

Check out this gameplay footage of the Kreios Resurgence:





The 1.03 update adds the following features:

• 'Expert' difficulty setting for seasoned Comet Crash players. You'll see a surge in enemy attacks that will put your skills to the test.
• 4 new Resurgence levels-one unlocked at the end of each comet during the Campaign. Resurgence levels may require completely new strategies. Beware... no hints!
• 4 new Battle maps to mix up your games a bit.
• Battle timer setting. After the timer runs out, all mobile units generate at 8x the normal rate which should bring games to an exciting finish!...

183w ago - Update: This rumor has been confirmed as true, with the tipster's screens originating from the PlayStation Web site itself (see HERE, HERE and HERE).

There has been a lot of buzz circulating around the next PS3 Firmware update, presumably version 3.10, which is what developers currently have.

Last month, Cross-Game Voice Chat was inadvertently confirmed to be included in it from a Naughty Dog developer.

Today, ScrawlFX.com (linked above) received some pictures from a tipster indicating that Facebook and Gamercard colors may also be included in the next PS3 Firmware update.

To quote: "Facebook integration, the ability to change your gamercard colors and more are coming to PlayStation 3, if these images from an anonymous tipster are to be believed.

The leaked images show the ability to manage your Facebook in your PlayStation Network account settings, changing the color of your PlayStation Network gamercard...

184w ago - Update #2: Modern Warfare 2 PS3 Patch Update v1.04 is live, but a changelog is not currently available for it yet.

Update: Modern Warfare 2 PS3 Patch Update v1.03 is now available which also fixes the PS3 Party System issues.

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 for Sony's PS3 console has reportedly experienced online issues since release with both players being unable to invite friends to matches and unable to unlock PlayStation 3 trophies.

As a result, Infinity Ward's servers are now back online as Robert Bowling (aka fourzerotwo) has now released a PS3 patch update v1.02 to remedy the PS3 Trophies issues, and apparently party invites will be patched this coming Friday.

To quote: "When you start up MW2, you will be prompted to download version 1.02.

Infinity Ward is definitely trying to keep the user satisfaction level high by releasing a patch just a day after MW2 hit shelves. With this 15MB update, everyone will be able to get their trophies now without any issues.

What about the party invite frustrations, you ask? Well, on Friday a fix for the party system will be released."
