Yep, Sony has released a new firmware update for the PlayStation 3. While these updates usually carry some extra features that aren't necessarily publicized, here's what the update contains according to PSN operations director Eric Lempel: Hello, I just wanted to provide everyone with a head’s up that the next PLAYSTATION 3 system software update (v.2.76) will be coming soon. This is a minor update that improves the playback quality of some PS3 format software. There's a lot of noise on the US PlayStation boards mentioning problems downloading the firmware update, so if you can't download it via PSN, you may want top check here for some 2.76 mirrors.

» cannot play games anymore
This update came out while I was playing a game, and the game froze. I reset my PS3 and updated to the 2.76, and ever since then it refuses to read any game I put in it. All my games are unscratched, and it won't even read my PS2 games anymore. WTF SONY?!

» IDK about that
The libtiff exploit only came out just hours before this update did, if it did block it, it would have taken longer for the update to come out

» No Issues for me
I actually notice a huge difference in GTA IV. It has more seamless gameplay. Online works completely, the ones who say it doesn't work probably screwed around with their systems while updating.

No problems here yet either. Have played Uncharted - Drakes Fortune and X-Men Origins: Wolverine just fine since the update.

My games seem to be working fine, but MS:PR's online doesn't seem to be working and BP's online is working. Maybe MS:PR's servers need to be updated still?

Seriously, do they have Willy Wonka coming up with these firmware version numbers? Why not release 2.71? Wouldn't that make a little more sense then 2.76. I tell ya, Sony has the most confusing version list ever made, though I will admit it's nowhere near as confusing (and annoying) as the Xbox 360's.

ever think they might be working versions and the number it has when its released is just the version that was ready
who seriously cares though, why would you even notice that enough to think about it really?
