Sony PS3 Firmware 2.44 or 2.50: What’s Next and Expectations

There have been a number of rumors that we could be seeing a Sony PS3 Firmware 2.50 by late October. This has not been made official yet, this might not be the case, and we could instead see a 2.44 update first instead.

You have to ask yourself what 2.50 will give us, let us hope that we get even more features to PSN as well as improvements in other areas. Sony has their work cut out for them if they want to try and close the gap to Xbox Live. However; Microsoft are about to make that a harder task once they launch Xbox Experience on November 19.

PS3 Firmware update 2.50 is needed very soon, as Sony has said that it is needed to work well with Home. Let us hope that Firmware 2.50 and Home 1.00 does get an October launch. As yet nothing is known about 2.50, but I am sure that there is a huge list of features that PS3 gamers would like to see, but what?

    I have been withPlaystation since PS1 came out and its been the best, i have own Nintendo 64 but xbox never called my attention PS3 is the ultimate as far as im concern is the best gaming system out there.

    I used to get really mad when i had to get off my game to turn on my bluetooth finally the update came along and they got it fixed so if i forget to turn on my bluetooth to talk shit to my friends online or whoever im playing with i can just hit the PS button and turn it on, but i agree with BRANDON. I support him because all he mention above is what the ps3 owners need jeeeeessh! and will give it a good use for sure. Right now the only website i can go to watch videos is YOUTUBE but if i go to any other website requiring another version of flash “java” it sucks not every video out there is viewed throught youtube i get so fustrated. i Wish that they can come up with an update where i can surf the web and also lsiten to music at the same time as well as when playing a game if i can be playing and listening to music at the same time from my ps3 that would meant he world. Exaple GTA4 it gets annoying listening to same same radio stations it would be so much better to just play music from your ps3 system while ur playiung the game dat way i can listen to w.e i want and just play through the game. But this is deff a head start and PLEASE ANYONE KEEP ME POSTED =].

I Think the music play wilst on Game’s is good,, ALSO wilst playing games online a feature were these a small Icon on screen to use eye toy,, not just talk with Head set, ALSO be able to send file’s to you phone VIA Bluetooth, ALSO enable MSN orsum FUKIN feature to use email.. (ANY1 ADD ME ON PS3 ” NorthSideILLMATIC “

    Hello everyone. You can learn as much - or more - from one glance at a private space as you can from hours of exposure to a public face.
    I am from Herzegovina and also now teach English, please tell me right I wrote the following sentence: “Despite recent issues in the news regarding this software, turbo tax allows you to.”

    :( Thanks in advance. Asia.
