As we told you earlier, PS3 firmware 2.76 is now out and available to download. Sadly though, it doesnt appear to add any new features, unless there are some hidden features in preparation for the next firmware update (v.2.80).
Quite a lot of you are disappointed with Sony in the lack of explaination for this firmware update. The only comment PS3 owners recieved was that the update ‘improved playback for some PS3 titles.’
Thankfully though, there have been big reports of an upcoming firmware update during this year’s E3 event. Features on the top of many of your wishlists include cross game video chat, skype support, a return for backwards compatibility, in-game music, better in-game XMB and much more.
What are your thoughts on the current firmware and what would you like to see in firmware 2.80?

Full Anti-Aliasing for PS1+PS2 games. Trophys support for PS1 games that you download from PSN. Quicker ingame XMB, Cross game-chat,Automatic Trophy synchronisation, ingame music, faster internet, and trophies for Oblivion and MGS4…
I hope will be implemented the motionflow on ps3 . It’s very important to reduce the motion blur .
UH…. download games and demos while playing a game. some where in the future, i hope they make ps store fun and stylish. hell, even give the xmb a make over.
In Game Music
Add On For Gta IV
More Free Games Etc Demos
Download Music Vidoes Onto Hardrive From Store
A more diverse and richer quality of themes/backgrounds/colour/icons combinations. A larger range of avatars. Multi-tasking; the ability to play music while viewing general settings i.e, Network Settings; playing music while using the PlayStation(R)Store. A more widely accepted web browser.
Basically we want the ps3 to be like the xbox 360 with all of its Fetures but alot better
well what i think sony should do is yes add ingame music and yes add all ingame xmb features and backwards compatibility and faster xmb and cross game chat also i think sony should have a feature where all games like rag doll kung fu where we can make you tube videos and allow us to upload them to our page also have a software where we can color and draw on our photos and use a photo for our online ids and allow us to switch users ingame because it sucks to have to quit game and switch users because i have 2 psn ids

Erm;
Rob; I’ve been playing PS2 games on my PS3 for many, many, many months now. In fact well over a year. ‘Superbike’ is an example. Final Fantasy X11; and One of the famous zombie shoot em up games; It’s late and I forget the PS2 title.
buy ‘Everybodys Golf World Tour’ if you want some modern fun
They need to start listening to what us PS3 owners want Cross In Game Chat and In Game Music for petes sake Xbox360 has had these features since there console came out!..I do know that Sony has the rights to do this I did some research and I was shocked to see that they already have it built inside the PS3!..Damn it already! Fire Eric Lempel and Howard bring back the original team that made SONY famous!!…Also what a pracital joke from you stupid Moderators who work for Sony release a Corrupted Firmware update mess up our PS3’s for no reason at all Damn it we all should tell you lazy Moderators keep it up find a new job!! Or we sue you all! Because this is getting out of hand! Sure they blame it on our Network Provider?.This is Bull$hit SCEA you SOAB!
