We reported last month that Sony PS3 Firmware 2.70 would be made available for download in the second quarter of 2009. Now more details have come to light that the release date for the software update will be sometime this week.
VG247 has reported that a developer at GDC informed them that PS3 firmware update v2.70 will be made available this week, developers have just received it on Monday. As yet it is no known what will be included in the update, but there has been a lot of speculation.
Some of the rumors suggest that update v2.70 will feature a reduction in load times for XMB and Trophy. PlayStation 3 users hope that this update will give them much more than v2.69, we will just have to wait and see.
We are now starting to get closer to Sony PS3 Firmware 3.0, and users have been voting as to what features they would like to see.

In game music is ok but should not be allowed during online games. how annoying is it to have to listen to some idiot blasting his music out in the background during COD online ? I know you can mute them but a mute all option would be preferable.
I still don’t understand why Skype isn’t on the PS3 yet. It’s been available on the PSP for some time. They brought out the Eye Toy with so much hype and done NOTHING with it. I was one of the idiots who believed the hype and thought I could use it with Skype relatively soon too.
PS3 already has In game music support.
‘users hope that this update will give them much more than v2.69, we will just have to wait and see.’
just picking holes sorry, but we ps3 users are currently running firmware 2.60! though probably just a typo!!
Hopefully this will come out and be a great update for ps3, i can’t wait now! Bring on thursday!
