    PS3 firmware 2.41 is up!

    I thought this deserved its own thread since this is one of the most wanted features on the PS3.

    A new PLAYSTATION 3 firmware update (v2.36) will be launching soon, improving system stability when playing select PlayStation format software titles. We’re also happy to officially report that the 2.40 system software update for PS3 will include “XMB” access in-game.

We’re also happy to officially report that the 2.40 system software update for PS3 will include “XMB” access in-game. The update will also include “trophies,” an exciting new feature that we’ll be providing more details on soon, as well as some other new enhancements. We’ve talked about some of this on the blog previously and know that many of you can’t wait to get your hands on these features. You can expect us to share all of the official details shortly.

        That's me. Just got a PS3 last weekend and I'm slightly horrified at how difficult it is to see friends and even download updates. It seems to randomly disconnect from the PSN whenever it feels like it, and even something as simple as updating games seems to be a gamble. Love it for offline, but so far I'm baffled by the online "functionality".

            Will certainly make online more interesting.

            The trophy thing ... that's like the 360 Achievements, no?

              Yep. They are saying they are going to expand on it and make it more than just a score. We'll have to wait and see what else they do with it.

                          Alright Sony, time to let us know what the trophies will be like. If only I can see them, why bother, and if I have to pay for them for Home, again, why bother. I don't need a scoring system ala achievements, but I'd like to see someway to view other friend's trophies.

                          Spill the beans!

                            I highly doubt they will charge you. That would make the whole system pointless.

                            I'm sure you will be able to view your friend's trophies from the XMB but maybe not in the first update. Guess we'll find out soon enough.

                              I'm just going off what Backbreaker said once that you would have to pay for display cases in Home.
