Hi, everyone. As many of you know, we released PS3 firmware update v2.40 last week, but had to take it offline temporarily because, for a limited number of users, the XMB wouldn’t display after the update was installed. We’ve been able to fix the problem, and I’m happy to report that firmware update v2.41 will be released shortly.
We want to extend our apologies to the PlayStation community for any inconvenience. Now we’ll be looking forward to seeing everyone online and racking up those trophies!
I read two comments on a Dutch website that their PS3 is nearly dead or freezes after the update, *ouch* :-(
@ GGCAN
its not on the store in game or the store
wish these people would actually read THEIR BLOG as this is a legitamate question and have asked it so many times with no response.I think the people responsible for keeping up this blog SHOULD BE FIRED why have the trophy system if we cant access them as this is the only game that supports them?SO I WILL ASK THE BLOG TEAM AT SONY ONE MORE TIME WHERE IS THE CO OP PACK FOR SUPER STARDUST HD PLEASE RESPOND?!?!?!
it’s only a “conspiracy theory” cause you treat it that way.
its a ps3 conspiracy
quit thinking for people let them do it.
i’ll stop when people like you quit trying to tell me what to do
it’s really the only reason i’m still here
not that i have made a point besides that 2.4x sux and was pointless to release till patches were ready…
i’m outta here. hope some of you still think for yourselves
and hope you all enjoy the flick for those who watched it for more than 20-30 min
so its going to be a new update soon?
@653
WOW, you are like the crazy lady that sits down the block from my house ranting about how the gov is trying to kill everyone, get a life.
crazyassmexican13…..should be if the programmers decide to use the feature…..it’s already there for them to use…they just have to program the feature into the games.
and your like the loser that pays income tax for no reason…
Well Damn i Hope It COmes Soon 4realz…Cuz I Love To Listen To Music And PlayGames At The Same Time..Ya Know?
your also the loser that thinks there is an invisible man in the sky who loves you and needs your money… or if your were 2000 years old, anything shiny…
ask the irs about the federal income tax law… there isn’t one!!!!
but i’m sure sony don’t want to much a part of this so most of my comments will be take off
sorry sony for using this as a way to comm with people i don’t know… still, 2.4x is so far, just pretty. its like a vista ps3 update. it really does nothing cool on the functional side
@660 danklown
what country are you from USA ?
Does RFID is used on people ?
But the sad true my dankclown lad, is this is a playstation blog, a gaming site for gaming adepts.
Its no place to political or philosophical rant.
Cheers and lighten up man ,games are for entertaining and fun (It can be more than that actually)
Danklown…..when you said nothing on the functional side…sort of disagree with you…just since 2.40 went in….I’ve met many bloggers and added them as friends…
I’m glad it kind of happened just meeting up with these people.
Just my own opinion.
This is great news, but what I’d really like is for the update to be put up for download on the official website already. :/
look up RFID implant, there are people asking for it!!! they want to be monitored by a satellite…
yes, usa sadly enough. i miss what is was to be call “an american” my grand father fought in WW2 and would puke if he was still alive to see what most of you call being a patriotic citizen of this country
I’m happy it’s fixed, though I never had any trouble to start with, nor did any of my friends. It must have been a very isolated incident.
Thanks for the quick fix for everyone else.
It’s a shame they had to reformat their systems, but at least they weren’t really bricked like the Xbox fans would have you believe.
I hope it doesn’t happen again though, since MS seems to have bricked a lot of systems early on with a lot of different updates.
I’m glad you guys admit to the mistake unlike the people over at MS who almost always cry out User error when they screw up.
Dear Sony,
please add these features.
1. VOICE MESSAGING.
2. CROSS-GAME INVITE SYSTEM.
3. PRIVATE CHAT.
Thank you.
okay, well if it has help someone in any way i retract my statement of complete uselessness…
There;s a village somewhere looking for it’s idiot.
To those of you asking, The co-op patch for StarDust should be available…I updated and got it, but maybe you have to purchase the expansion as well.
I didn’t personally have my 60gb PS3 bricked, but thanks for being on top of the problem and getting the solution out so quick. Hope you guys were still able to get your BBQ on this past weekend!
saintfigheraqua….you just may be right.
I have all the add ons and got the patch and team co op add on the day 2.40 came out.
It may depend on a previous add on….but it’s a good one.
Allows Split screen play and modifying your ship.
p.s. if the goverment was worried about me they would have got me by now… i am a small fish in a big puddle of water… i hope to start a big wave… thats all
let em come get me, i’ll glady go for a greater cause… like the colonialists did. they were believed to be wrong as well as the “founders” or the USA left england due to a federal banking system… then we let them in again…
if anyone comes for me it will be mr. rockafeller and his loser posse
i’m a juggalo, my army is way bigger and willing to fight for whats ours… freedom
i just want to play my games too guys… it’s not gonna be like that for long
danklown, i would like an implant, i would also like to implant your mom
i love the clever jokes that have been told on many forums before this… most of you are to scared to do anything anyway, scared to think your wrong, or even scared to care… you might have to leave your mom’s couch…
DANKLOWn
is that your PS3 UserName?
Need patches now. :)
what a tool
Super Stardust patch doesnt give you the Team Add on that you need to complete the co-op trophy. They pulled it, and its not back up yet. (The Add-on)
implany my mom
she’s 4’11” and 350lbs
have fun you sick mofo
as i said, such original jokes… i’m better at those then you are. i’m nornally the guys saying what you said.. your know… your mom and all… whoa… your cool for 2 secs, then your post disaperes in the ranks of others saying the samething, i’m still posting this…it’s a circle jerk and i’m sitting with my hands tied… your the one’s that give me an ability to keep saying this stuff… keep posting jokes…i keep posting rebuttal’s
Thankfully 2.40 didnt affect my ps3 but I wanted to say I live about an hour from L.A. and I would deffinately be in the area Im going to try and go to E3 any event you set up Id definitely want to attend
when will the 2.41 firmware be available on the website to install via usb?
also please add this feature – screenshots
like if we press print screen on keyboard it will take a screenshot of whatever is up (xmb or movie but especially games!)
lol; I’m glad is back I’m going crazy for trophies lol; i know I’m a trophie junkie
saintfighteraqua there is co-op but the update for split screen isn’t out yet. Or did they mess up with the trophy and it work on normal co-op?

@685, yeah im with you. I wish the SSHD co op team pack would come out again, i really want that last gold one =)
If you have the Team add on…you should see Split screen as an option on the game menu…if not, you don’t have it yet.
darkliger what you ask for like many other people do also, sony leaves that kind of stuff up to game developers to put in or not.
SONY,
Thanks for the quick response, but there are 3 things I would like for you to do…
1) Please don’t listen to anyone who says you need to imitate what another console does by any means.
2) Continue to be original and innovative; those are definitely your strong points.
3) And last but definitely not least and most importantly: PLEASE BAN THE A&& CLOWN CALLED DANKLOWN! We have enough loony, conspiracy theorists spouting words of doom on the streets. The last thing we need is one on a gaming blog!
GGCAN
i added you as a friend
did you get it?
When did they put out this add on cause I have all the add ons that show in PSN or they just add it today because I have co-op but no split screen.
and about the sshd pack….where is it?
@689
Any reason why they pulled it? I look for it constantly and the team pack is just not there.
My Mistake My
USer ID is
CrazyAssMExican
Without THe 13
they added it with 2.40 but then took it down
doom?? thats a fun game… whats your guys deals… banning is really gonna stop me. i could just make a new account… wow, i used my brain…
Weren’t those “few cases” of “XMB issues” really a number of people suddenly getting several hundred dollar shiny doorstops?
I had gotten 2.40 and downloaded the Superstardust HD update and have all the plug ins still no split screen. Unless they put it out today with 2.41
