It seems as if Sony is releasing new updates thick and fast, the latest firmware update is 2.42. So what is new on this new software update?
Once you switch your PlayStation 3 on you will be meet with a message letting you know that there is a new download. We will be taking a look a little later just to see what Sony are giving us with the Firmware Update 2.42 update.
One thing that we do know is that the new software improves the quality of playback for some PS3 and Playstation format software. Until we have a closer look, we can’t really tell you much more.
Let us hope that this update fixes a few security issues, oh and those Call of Duty 4 issues that some gamers had complained about.

During the gameplay of mgs4 the controller all of a sudden started pressing x like crazy by itself and shutdowned, i turned back on the ps3 and i couldnt even press X [] triangle or Circle , nor the up down left right arrows, and when booting up the ps3, it auto logs on to the first acc, shown, and when i boot up my controller when i press the home button it acts as a X button, the joysticks do work, im going to try a system restore, if this doesnt work, im gunna give sony a hell of a piece of my mind
