When the Sony PS3 first hit the market many of us were so exited, but when we took the new games console home and set it up there was a horrible taste left in our mouths. The problem that the Sony PlayStation faced was it did not offer gamers the chance to speak to other gamers online; keeping a community talking is one of the most important things for gamers.
When it comes to keeping gamers happy and talking, it seems that the Sony PS3 can not touch the Xbox 360. This was the ultimate console when it comes to their voice chat options, many PS3 owners are hoping that the new Sony PS3 Firmware v2.4 Update will come with the rumoured improved communication features. The guys over at PS3 Daily have said that the new firmware update will be released on June 18; this seems like so long to wait for the much approved communication features.
Also being rumoured in the Sony PS3 Firmware v2.4 Update, is a Trophy System for achievement points, there are also rumours of many more goodies from the update, as always we have to wait until the day to find out what they will be. It seems that there are so many conflicting reports about when the new firmware will be ready for download, some are saying the June 10, but most sources are looking more towards June 18.
So what else do you want from the new Sony PS3 Firmware v2.4 Update?

How about Activision enables got damn fucken rumble for COD4!!!! Jesus! This is the lamest company of all time! And every other PS3 game that has been released without rumble needs to be patched with rumble in this next firmware update!!!
….Otherwise they deserve to have their company shut down and never allowed to make video games EVER AGAIN!!!!! Stupid Activision!!!!!!!!
In response to whoever said online community’s dont need to talk i have a xbox 360 and i play call of duty 4 a lot online, having voice chat is good because you can communicate with your team, also i if i wanna talk to my mates i can just send hima chat invite and talk to him when he is playing one game and im playing another
down side is the little kids and general idiots that talk crap on there, but you can just mute them
The only thing thats really bugging me at the moment is the internet browser on the PS3.
It likes freezing on me for some reason and i have to re-set the console as it stops responding, having a browser that was more stable and not having to wait for firmware updates for the likes of flash player whens a new one is released etc would, i think be of greatest benefit to me.
a clock i need a clock like the psp
Yeah many more features need to be added such as the time when you press the PS button (something so simple lol), Firefox web browser, In game XMB (MUST and NO buts SONY), Trophies (aha sought of need it to be happy), Fix the Playstation Store because downloading images is slower then the older Playstation store, Six axis is very very very very very dodgy and is a big no no, particularly Lair!
Things I Want
An In-Game XMB
A Clock
Added Flash Support-Or different Browser!!!*
Being Able 2 Play Our OWN Music during Game’s
