Firmware 2.50 made PS3 into a true multi-media center piece

Excerpt, "The cool part of this is that the PS3 browser is made to be viewed on big HDTV, so by clicking the R3 button once it will zoom into the page, and by pressing the R2 and L2 button you can drag the video even closer to you filling your whole 52 inch Samsung HDTV! (hint: let your imagination run wild, let Tera Patrick's private part fill all 52 inches of pixels on your HDTV while you stream her on-the-fly from your PS3 browser)"

watching all the anime on PS3 now. So much better on the big screen tv; i thank dtw for the update and the tips on the R2,L2, i never knew.. The best part of this is that the resolution doesn't seem to get worst!

plain rice6428d ago

I've been using the L2/R2 zooming in feature for a while now. Well only for YouTube when that was the only video site that was watchable. :)

HULU.COM WORKS!
Now I can watch (most) of my favorite shows on my 46' tv instead of my computer....this is so awesome

TheTimeDoctor6428d ago

cool feature, but why don't you just hook a computer to your tv?

darkdoom30006428d ago

^^^ Some people cant be stuffed.

MY PC is in the guest room. my PS3+ TV is in my bedroom. Its a lot easier just watching thru PS3. rather than hooking it up to the TV.

nbsmatambo6428d ago

"and that includes the popular porn site such as redtube as well."

xhi46428d ago

before I'd watch it on my PC screen.........

urm... that zoom feature appeared on internet browser wayy before v2.5

you are probably talking about the browser in LifewithPlaystation

DrWan6428d ago

Yes, the zoom feature was there before according to some further research i believe, but i never notice it bc the browser was pretty much useless at the time but now. oh baby, browser is soooo good on video stream

ExcelKnight6428d ago

The zoom function was in the default browser since I got my PS3 at the top of this year. That should be 2.3 or so.

The zoom function added to Life with Playstation is new since 2.5 and is worth it, though. Gotta love it when people don't fully research the functionality of a system...

thebudgetgamer6428d ago (Edited 6428d ago )

the ps3 im playing now is almost nothing like the ps3 i bought
and its gonna keep getting better

:)

mfwahwah6428d ago

It doesn't have to be new to mention it if it's relevant. The author of the article is talking about watching youtube videos on your tv, and mentions that you can always zoom in if you want. I've read a few comments already saying they didn't know this.

Marcan216428d ago

he probalbly means that no more troubles with the flash player since we got an update (9.0). But that function was there way before...
What would be nice is to have a better browser... like firefox or google chrome, instead of that crappy mozilla/nestcape 5.0

BaSeBaLlKiD7216428d ago

did you know that mozilla is firefox?

LMAO

Man I never used LMAO, but that deserves a big fat LMAO

Goodnight failbox,Google and Sony have teamed up,thus your electronic heater has no value in the marketplace now

Sir_Ken_Kutaragi6428d ago

I didn't even know that!!! ;-D So much it can do!!! ;-P
It really is a SEXY bit of Kit;)

CyberSentinel6428d ago

....the small ram size of the pos3 means that it can not handel large files when it tries to buff the content as it streams, which usually ends in a forced close browser, slowdown, or just plain system freeze up!

Xlll6428d ago

CyberSentinel - your a complete moron. Ps3 has the same ram as failbox. Only difference is ours is not some low end SD shared trash ram like MS using.

Lolliflop Lolliflop 6428d ago

The xbox 360 has no Hi-definition multimedia functions,cry more xturds

TheMART6428d ago

Nasim,

I have an USB 2.0 HDD attached to my 360, HFS+ formatted and running HD movies from it without having to buy BluRay discs that can scratch. I play them in 1080p. But as easily I can stream it from a PC if I would like to.

So...

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle27d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7727d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde33d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy34d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12534d ago (Edited 34d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
