PS3 Hits Firmware 3.66

Anyone switching on their PlayStation 3s this morning will notice that there’s a mandatory update to the system software.

The update, which takes the PS3 to version 3.66 is a “minor” update, improves system stability during “use of PS3 format software” and, apparently, does some magic with the “network services”.

Wonderfully vague and only a tad annoying.

  1. Yay, another update! What! It adds nothing? Oh? Just like usual then. =]

    Hopefully when things are running as smooth as glass and the system is more secure we can go back to getting ACTUAL features – come on, I can dream…right?

    *Dreams*

    > Cross Game Chat
    > Auto Trophy Syncing
    > Auto Game Backup to the Cloud (or upload all button rather than doing them manually =|)
    > Being able to bake cakes…nom nom…

    *Wakes up*

    =D

    • & franchises made alphabetical in store.

      • And the ability to sort your own trophy list into the order you want (leave Compare trophies like it is). I’m picky like that – don’t like to see the games I have less than 50% trophies or so. Prefer to see me 31 Platinums queued up on after another =]

      • one*

      • Until I get a laptop, Ingame browsing is a big feature. Even with a laptop/pc, it would be nice to be directed, straight to games homepage, via ps3 browser.

  2. 31 platinums …. I hope your joking =O Yeah its fair to say that new features have been few and far between recently. Since its been about a year since some proper feature updates, I hope we see 4.0 before the Xmas with some good features. A boy can dream

  3. I’m getting sick of these mandatory updates that don’t bring anything new or even anything thats noticeable.

    • You can always remove your ethernet cable, or reset your wireless connection, problem solved.

  4. Perhaps these updates are for the PlayStation branded stuff like the 7:1 headphones or TV… but then again those updates would most likely made shortly before their releases in September.

    • Already been confirmed to be Firmware 3.70 for the 7:1 headset and that will be released just before they are released.

  5. Please I want to update because my disabled and stop because I have disconnected the device and Hua renovation works on the Virgin 4.21 but real Alvirgn for your Hua 3.66 to ask me Alvirgn
