Is this the long-awaited update we've been waiting for?!
If so.. I can finally put away my PS2.
as far as backwards compatibility... i put in the two games that the previous FW made look horrible.. (FF12 and God of War)...and they look GREAT!! no glitches, jaggies.... now the ps2 can go away!!
I had the previous firmware and have been playing FF12 for weeks now with no issues. What are you talking about?
Changelog :
1.32 > 1.50
- User can now set an image/photo (off a mem stick etc) for their user id
- Edy support added (for payment via card reader)
- 'operation sound' added to sound settings
- 'delete backup data' added to backup utilities subsetting
- WEP128, WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA-PSK(AES) can now utilize AOSS
- Can now remember your login password without using automatic login
- Korean keyboard setting can be used
We'll update it now. Thanks for the info. :)
a pretty decent update, enough to fix the smaller *****les til the much anticipated March firmware update
I wonder if this firmware will turn out to be like the magical 1.50 FW PSPs??? I wish
what the hell are you talking about..........
Weir + the small percentage that doesn't understand "UMD", meaning "USE MODDING DUMB@##" lol. , I run all my game off a UMD!... hurray !!!... No wonder my PSP sucks... I'm still using UMDs!!!
LURK MOAR
he was talking about homebrew psp games that run on FW 1.50
another feature is that the mouse moves a lot faster in the internet browser
you can change the cursor speed from the settings menu
Well, at least the PS3 firmwares are coming out quicker than the PSP one's, I'm just waiting for the supposed BIG March update, can't wait to see what Sony has up for PS3 owners:-P
This update actually has GOOD changes...
Nevada AKA Fluff, got the change log from the jap ps3 site, all did was post it!
Yeh i cant w8 i want some new features on my ps3 already!
is probably because they knew that such problem should have never exist in the first place, they want future gamer to never know such problem ever exist. So its nothing to brag about.
not to mention the update isnt bricking consoles ;)
It bricked my PS3 and $ony denies that is possible and is making me pay to send it back. I found a way to illegally modify my blu ray drive firmware to play backups, but I didn't tell them that. Now the motherf*ckers are making me pay for their mistake!
It's not like PSP's are getting bricked by updating either. It's downgrading. ;)
That was pretty good, PS3 lover. If people were modifying their PS3s, they could brick just as easily. It's pretty stupid to expect Microsoft to test its updates with ILLEGAL DVD firmware, well because it's illegal.
Didn't Ken "Dumbass" Kutaragi compare the cell to the internet, saying
"If processors of high performance and wide bandwidth like the Cell were linked together without sufficient security, a worldwide system crash could occur with one attack."?
The PS3 is vulnerable.
The PSP's security was hacked within months.
no when will i be able to play this damn thing using my lcd computer monitor, it friggin sucks that sony put in this bull***** protection so i would have to buy a new hi def. television...oh well i guess i just won't buy any games for it until they allow it in a firmware update
that protection on digital video connections is in almost every A/V product with digital video output or input... Most recievers that have HDMI state if the device doesnt have that protection then it wont work with this reciever. Go out and acually buy a REAL display instead of using your half ass LCD moniter.
HDCP is between the PS3 and the Display.
Sony cant do anything in the firmware to change it. The PS3 has HDCP because in the future, all displays will have to support it. Its starting with 1080p right now but eventually HDCP, or a version of it, will be on every resolution.
Too bad your computer monitor wont be able to playback 1080p content unless you hack it. Right now, the only way to get 1080p from a Blu-ray Drive or HD DVD drive is to have a HDCP compatible drive, which they all are. A HDCP compatible Video card and barely anyone has it and only the newest 8 series Nvidia and New ATi cards are HDCP compatible. Last is a HDCP display.
So if you cant get you display to work now. Then in the future, if you expect to be able to buy a Blu-ray Drive or HD DVD drive and pop in a movie and play it back easily in 1080p, then your mistaken if you dont have HDCP.
"Your an idiot"
Oh the irony ;)
Wasn't it nice of $ony to protect their profits with their BS copy protection while some PS3 owners get screwed and have to buy a new TV? Make sure you buy a $ony TV. You'll also need a new $ony surround sound system to take advantage of overhyped "lossless" audio supported by one game. Hell why not buy a PSP, lots of blu ray movies, and PS3 games even though they suck!
Buying a PS3 goes against common sense and turns you into a $ony puppet.
unless you have a 24 inch LCD monitor, which you prob dont because.. then,more than likely it should have HDCP built in. if you have less than 1900x1200 resolution then you must have 1680x1050 if you do then you should be watching your blurays and games at 720p because that will give you be most accurate picture pixel per pixel.
******alot of ppl are confused******
if you connect your ps3 via HDMI-DVI to your monitor more than likely it wont work. that is because the standard definition of the ps3 is 480i .something your monitor does not support. what you have to do is connect the ps3 HDMI-DVI then when the ps3 is off hold the power button on until you hear a beep ( 3-4 seconds after you hold the button). then turn on your monitor. this enables the auto resolution feature thus allowing you to play on your lcd.
i have 2 20'' inch lcds one is not HDCP and one is.the difference between 1080p and 720p on a LCD that is not native 1900x1200 its not that big. point is that just because your monitor is not HDCP enable it doesnt mean you cant play at all . all it means is that it wont play at 1080p.
I have a computer LCD monitor connected to my PS3 and works perfectly @ 720p. I have a Samsung SyncMaster 940bw. I bought a cable that converts HDMI to DVI on www.monoprice.com, for a very cheap price and a great quality cable. I love HD.
» The XBOX 360 has a nice, convienent VGA connection with no copy protection BS
So when HD-DVD movies are copy protected you'll need to buy a new HD-DVD player to play some actual high definition. Stop *****ing trolling and go back to the 360 section
it should have a longer life if you have a HDCP compliant videocard. if you dont then Xbox dies HD-DVD drive dies. a horrible Death...
- 'operation sound' added to sound settings
Where's it at and what does it do!?
, S
Good job sony, finally theyre making updates that matter instead of just security updates. This updates has really good features. Cant wait for the anticipated March update
Why is my backround yellow now?!?!?!?!?!?
The background colour changes throuhout the day based on the time it is.
the background color mixes in with the following month's background color...silver and bright green + piss colored background right now >_>..it's so disguisting. i changed mine to like july or august i believe it is and i have a dark blue.
Tomb Raider 1 still looks like $hit on the PS3! Im still pissed!
tomb raider 1 always looked like *****
its a ps1 game, its gonna look like ***** on any system...
SONY OWNS THE GAMING WORLD
Do you all think this will this be better than using a s-video cable for ps2 games.
s-video supports 480i only :P
I just finish doing my test with FFX and FFtactic (ps1 game). It's a lot better now. They put a filter or something like that (you can see it side by side with a ps2 (PiP screen)). They knew that they have to do it fast and the big reason was God of war 2! If it run well on ps3 then ps3 owner will buy it too.

Glad to see sony being proactive on the consumer complaints about the psx display.
i also like the other little updates, touch up effects ^^
the new photo icons are great. been playing all morning with em
Metal Gear Solid still looks horrible for me.
Another thing I found to be updated in v1.5 was when using my bluetooth headset during Resistance:FoM gameplay:
Disconnecting and connecting the headset while in-game always use to cause the controller to disconnect/freeze for a second or so...now it doesn't. There is no freezing while connecting the headset in-game or even at the gameOS at all - which is a great thing.
The web browser works faster; most notably flash movies. (Which is excellent, especially those using Orb.)
How do I use a pic/photo, from my memory card, as my user ID?
go to users, press triangle on your user and press up until your avatar is highlighted. press X. then you will see the default avatars and a button that says " use pictures from [photos]. select that.
All this talk about the updated quality of the PS2 games, I havent noticed anything. I read how this was supposed to be fixed so I threw a PS2 game in and...blah...looked the same. I tried a few more and still looked like *****. Does me using a HDMI cable have something to do with it? I see all these reports of it working but I cant understand why it doesnt for me.
Do the ps1 and 2 games run in progressive scan now?? I have to use the HD Xploder device in my ps2 in order to play most games in 480p. It blows the PS3s video output out of the water. But I didn't update yet so I wonder if that is why? Can anyone confirm if it's in progressive?
I wondered why everything suddenly looked better. Haha.
well i got hyped about this cause i thought ffxi on my ps3 wouldnt make me want to puke anymore but looks just as crapy as b4:(
For all of you who say the PS2's can now go away, wtf are you talking about? Can you use your SG controllers on your PS3 now? Can you?! Of course not! So until then, the PS2 remains in the *****ing room!
you can buy a cable that allows you to plug your old controllers into the ps3. "20vs 20 resistance is so awesome".
someone Please help me i have tried like 3 different jump drives and an external hdd to update the ps3 from a pc and it wont read the update info it reads the drives but it wont read the update it says no update found in drive PLEASE HELP i did this on my PS3 and on my brothers PS3 oh and yes i did make the folders like it says to make but it still wont fuc***g read it please tell me what im doing wrong
if its anything like the PSP, you need to copy the update to your hard drive in a specific filing system.
try
ms0/Msroot/SYSTEM/UPDATE
WWE SmackDown! vs. RAW 2007 still looks horrible on PS3, although I see very very MINOR improvements.
All other PS2 games look to be fine.
