PS3 System Software Update (v2.41)

1,366 0

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!

  • burgerking…..you should be able to go to the demo section of the store and download SSHD….the add ons are at the store as well and when I got it in Jan this year…another one was inside the game.

  • don’t get your self all worked up danklown when the world goes to hell we will be the ones prepared to sit back and laugh at them all.

    Also anyone want to add me this is my name on PSN also.

  • it was there for about a day…..

  • @706,
    Same here buddy

  • Rambling Johnny

    Now if we could only get a few big games like mgs4 and gta4 patched for custom music and trophies we could all put this mess behind us.

  • GGCAN

    i already have sshd, just not the add-ons.

    i will get them later

    @691 SuperFist
    im with you man/girl

  • DankLow,

    you are like the some of the ps3’s that had the old update…you are bricked.

  • saintfighteraqua

    I’m very pleased with the trophies, though at first I didn’t think I’d care.
    I am really interested in info on the patches that will enable the other games to have trophies.
    Especially
    Uncharted
    Heavenly Sword
    Pixel Junk Monsters

    By the way, where are the custom Soundtracks in Pixel Junk Monsters, I thought they were ready?

    Can’t wait for Pixel Junk Eden!!
    Sony needs to release disc based collections of the awesome dl games for those without online.
    They are too good to ignore!!

  • Has anyone played mgs4?……The government is like the Patriots…They keep secrets from us and can monitor us from any technological device….The U.S government actually has an alien held captive from a UFO that crashed many years ago….Always look to Kojima (do you think he would lie to us?)

  • saintfighteraqua

    My PSN name is also saintfighteraqua, I’d love to meet some new friends…although I rarely play online, I do play Tekken and will play SC4 when it releases.

  • anyhow @ supersnake you are a troll and you know it how about give us some proof that it happen to you because i have 97 friends who happen to have friends and none of us had have this problem maybe and most likely for sure you did something wrong, besides if it happens between 6 to 8 months there is a thing call warranty hello wake up and smell the trolling, i don’t know what you are looking for in this blog perhaps you did the damage your self?

  • @716

    PixelJunk Eden:
    Will launch with Trophies.
    August 2008.

    PixelJunk Monsters:
    Could be patched.
    Mid 2008.

    Head over to thesixthaxis.com for a list.

  • DanKlown,

    It’s funny how you tell us all to think for ourselves…and yet you’re just repeating all the same tired lies that have been posted on silly websites for years (ie: that there’s no law about paying taxes…, etc).

    I can assure you that there IS a law about paying taxes. And if you don’t think there is, well, have a sit down with any of the thousands of people who are currently serving time for evading their taxes (including Wesley Snipes).

    So, quit just repeating what you’ve seen in some silly video or on some crackpot website…and follow your own advice: start thinking for yourself. Or at least come up with an original idea.

  • Has anyone heard the trophy unlock noise? Ive unlocked 5 and never heard it once.

  • I’ve heard it everytime.

  • @715

    ohh, good one

    bricked… very cleaver

    and your like a piece of dog crap, no one cares till you made a stink…

    look at me, i’m made a funny

    just proves how smart and aware most gamers are. i had hoped most of you use that brain for something other then plugging a usb unto your ear and wishing to get smarter

  • …and it’s not that exciting.

  • oh wait.. am i out of date.. yes, you knwo have a bluetooth hub implant so it’s a direct connection…

  • saintfigheraqua…not sure what happened..tried to add you and it said ‘the online id you entered has not been registered’

    I’ll give it a shot later in the day.

  • Thank you sony ;)

  • @721 there are plenty of “tax law” and i neve rthought for anyone… there is no federal income tax law smart guy…

    i have not paid a federal income tax in my life… yes the whole 25years i’ve been here. if i did, i didn’t know it. i asked the irs…did you…???

    i’m only saying what i know. i have only seen the zeitgeist movie as of late. i have been having these thought and making connections my whole life.

    the net and news or just tools to use at your own discretion.

    i never said to believe in me or my words.. you blew them out of proportion by defeating most of what you already know… you believe in invisible people…??? if so your as nuts as the next guy

  • Klown,

    I know that your parents encouraged you to quit school so that you could help the family “make ends meet”, but judging by the quality of your writing, I’m worried that the decision may have been a poor one.

    It’s never too late to learn how to read and write. And I hope you’ll do both.

  • Klown,

    You only pay income tax if you’ve actually earned income.

    There’s the hitch, huh Sherlock?

  • haha, now thats a good one. i’m typing to fast to care about grammar. i’m also doing plenty of other things as we i type… like playing my guitar, making music on my cpu with programs you probably never thought of how to make sense of.

    not to mention sitting next to my beautiful model/ web designing fiance… i graduated college with a 3.73 and did drop out of school to take care of my family as we were every poor and my parents were not to educated…

    your joke was good, but hardly near the truth…

    by the way, if i cared about grammar and spelling i would just use the spell/grammar check like i assume you did…

    try again…

  • saintfighteraqua…if I can’t add you….my id is GGCAN…

    I think you have to register your id….not sure as can’t remember what I did when I first got the PS3….but for some reason it’s saying on my PS3 you’re not registered.

    Added few others and had no problems with those.

  • i get ssi retard, i was born with cracks in my spine… go ahead makes some jokes regarding that.. most people here are laughing at you for replying… and me for still being here… either matter to me

    to boot, you pay for my ssi if you work, so if your pissed about that then quit your job and go live in a hole so you do the world a favor and quit wasting our o2

    and, there is still no “federal income tax” law… go back to school

  • bet that pissed you off some… never my intentions but i always so what i know as truth.. your just trying to be smart and funny which either of them are working out well for you

  • Guys…let’s stop the bashing and try to help others here ??

  • i’m honestly just tired of the personal attacks due to asking someone to click on a link. others posted and i replied. sorry for bothering those of you just here for the real reasons…games that is.., some of us just don’t know when to ignore others… i being one of them. i gotta lot of time on my hands and love to show that i also don’t just let someone i don’t know try to slander me or my words..

    again sorry to all who have just kept to their agenda. didn’t mean to bother anyone who wsn’t trying to bother anyone else

    as for the others that just love to mess with people. i have all day…

  • Half_life000111

    ok… now in game xmb can’t be used while playing MGO online??????????????? I used to be able to use it in game in MGO, what happened?

  • Sony Sony excellent job getting the update out so quickly. I was one of the ones that didnt recieve the update and now its downloaded due to your swift action excellent work.

    P.S. psn id mgw8984

  • i was acting a bit childiah but i can’t let someone call me a liar when it’s here for all to see…. this a world site… not just for americans to see.

  • YO Guys Check this out:
    New Playstation HOME update: version 0.94.2

  • Klown,

    Our audio team uses ProTools (Digidesign)for most of our music and audio production (I’m strictly on the coding side of things, but I like to dabble). Some of the PC guys also use Sonar, but mainly just for fx work (plus, we have a pretty massive VST library). I’m not sure any of the audio tools on your little box would cause me much confusion.

    As for SSI, it’s funny how you bash the government and complain about paying taxes, but then leech off the social network.

    Classic.

    The government should cut you loose, see how long you last without the benefits of our tax dollars.

    But don’t worry. I’ve paid a ton in taxes. So it’s likely that we’ll keep you afloat for a few more years.

    The issue we have with you is the completely inappropriate comments you’ve been making and the ridiculous links you’ve posted. They have nothing to do with gaming.

    Sadly, I’ve allowed myself to be dragged down to the same level.

  • Jeff Rubenstein its still lags as hell ….when i play timeshift it lags as i open up the in-game IM .

    and another thing ( Jeff Rubenstein ) since you knew that most of all Game makers well not go with your Trophy system ….and you others said we will get more games for this so called a waste of time Trophy system .

  • @741…..Home beta coming Sep 08 and full in 2009 apparently per PSXExtreme.com

    “It used to dominate the news on a weekly basis, especially in the months directly after its unveiling, but since then, we haven’t heard much about PlayStation Home. We’re well aware of the delays, of course, but the last report says an open beta is scheduled for this fall. Well, that’s still the case, as Sony’s PlayStation Network director Eric Lempel says.

    In a recent interview with Next-Gen, he said very clearly- “The Home open beta is still on schedule for release later this fall.” He was asked about PSN director Susan Panico’s earlier comments when she said the initial beta rollout would be “similar to Gmail” and it will work just fine as an “open, functioning beta.” This statement was met with mixed results by gamers; some still bitter about the delay saw this as an excuse to release a half-done Home this year. But that really is not the case:

    “If you think about Gmail and Susans reference, Gmail when it launched in beta was a fully functional email service. I personally was using it and it offered everything youd expect, but was in beta just to say that theres more to come and maybe its not fully polished. The reason weve been delaying [Home] is so that we can deliver a high quality service that the users will enjoy. Even though it will be in beta, it will be a fair representation of what the service can be and its potential, so it wont be a 0.5 release, it will be a fully robust service.”

    So there you have it. Despite the fact that the official launch of Home remains in 2009, we’ll still be able to jump in and test it out this fall. Besides, one has to remember that Home will likely be a service that receives ongoing upgrades and enhancements even after its official release, so if you look at it this way, the open beta rollout isn’t much different than a regular ol’ launch. Oh, and just as a final side note, Lempel did reconfirm Sony’s plan to launch a downloadable movie service for the PS3 in the US this summer. That is a very cool option, and one that should make selling PS3s an even easier proposition.”

  • thanks, sony, for posting about it. but how “shortly” is it gonna be.
    with psp 4.00 it was only like 4 hours.

  • @ ghamdikh1 741 ………..Home will be delyed agian so dont get your hopes up .

  • Now back on topic:

    2.41 seems to be working fine. I was running 2.40 without any problems (well, without any technical problems). I’m excited to download the Stardust update. I finally passed that evil Taranus level. Man, that was a doozie…

  • BRICKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Just downloaded the update. Threw in COD4. Game menu pops up and the system dies.

    HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @744,

    get redy for problems.

  • TouchyEd….they’re difficult.

    Not sure how some people have racked up such a high percentage…saw some with 75 and 80 percent.

    My fingers get too sore after a bit.
