Sony is keeping to its promise of
adding continual improvements to its PlayStation 3 console. Sony's
last update for the PS3 nixed the "Install Other OS"
feature from "fat" PS3 -- the move resulted in one UK PS3
owner getting
a refund of $129 from Amazon.
The latest firmware update doesn't
bring back the removed features, but it does
add support for 3D stereoscopic gaming. In addition, it adds a
few improvements to the PS3's Trophies:
Trophy enhancements –- Now you can more easily sort trophies in the [Trophy Collection] and [Comparing Trophy] sections. Sorting can be done with [Trophy Collection] in the [Game Category] and also when comparing trophies with your friends in the [Friend Category]
- Trophy Folder (Title List) can be sorted by game name/ by title according to the date in which you earned your last trophy (ascending/descending)
- Add-on list (Group list) can be sorted by original/the date in which you earned your last trophy (ascending/descending)
- Trophy list can be sorted by original/trophy name/grade/date of obtaining the trophy (ascending/descending)
You can upgrade to the latest PS3
firmware using the System Update feature within the XMB.
