Hard to tell, but Sony says there is a huge firmware update coming before Spring.

sinncross5686d ago

I'm all for this, and a version of Chrome on PS3 and PSP: the internet app for both are in needed of upgrades.

"and a version of Chrome"

you won't be seeing that for a very very long time, it sounds easy to do but theirs whole load of problems and it would put Sony in a very tricky situation.

I was reading about just that on the PlayStation forums and I came to the conclusion that the web browser would never be upgraded.

Red_Orange_Juice5685d ago

you mean Chrome is too open source, that could mean many troubles for Sony

Cevapi885685d ago

not unless google cracked down and helped sony with any hackers who would try to take advantage of the ps3 through chrome

seeing as how they are more familiar with web browsers and net security, google would only be an asset, and i doubt that they would want to be known as the company that helped crack the ps3

i can't believe people actually give a crap about the browser, most people i know only use it for porn

maxcer5685d ago

i used the ps3 browser once to see what it looked like. am i the only one who has a PC hooked up to their TV?

simplyRealistic185685d ago

welcome to the world outside of "MOST PEOPLE"

anyway, they should just use a better Webkit Browser, seriously, thats all they need,

Parapraxis5685d ago

@maxcer, I've had my PC hooked up to my TV for about 10 years now. ;)
Love my "video on demand".

huge firmware update = google tv, google chrome browser, cross game chat ? anyone? xD

probably not but it would be awesome to have google tv and a chrome browser

Ggame5685d ago

If Sony really do that, I'll strongly give more loyalty to them. :))

I can't see GoogleTV on the PS3, if its happening, coming as an app. More than likely it'll be a Trone/PlayTV box that someone wont have the decency to charge less than a GoogleTV box alone.

RedDevils5685d ago (Edited 5685d ago )

I think you're blind you can't see GoogleTv on the Ps3, it will come, bin the mean time you can stop spilling any crap

Godmars2905685d ago

I said its unlikely to be a simple software app because of the boxes already in use in the UK and Japan.

If it is a software app, it might require a subscription separate from PS+ which will make people hi tthe roof.

Don't take this the wrong way... But you're full of shit. This message will self destruct...

jashwin5685d ago

Yaay! An obscure website that I've never even heard about makes a rumor based on a "source". Stupid article. Even though I think there is a 51% chance of google tv coming to ps3, this website is just making up bulls(hi$

SilverSlug5685d ago

from this very site like 5 days ago.

What is up with the late double articles?
