Bout dam time they start working on the browser, though I don't expect huge changes.

And I'm confused about the PSN time thing?

SPARDA_4265248d ago

I was hoping for them to fix up the internet for quite a while now, good to now it has now been improved.

Nitrowolf25248d ago

Um WOW
I take that I don't expect anything huge back. The web browser is so much more faster
Youtube is LOTS better then before

Kevin ButIer5248d ago

Wow finally a good update...

problemchild845248d ago

Yeah fixing the browser has been long overdue, it seems to work much faster for me now after the update and www.1channel.ch actually works now on PS3!! Plus it hasn't frozen once yet since updated.

LORD-PHOENIX5248d ago (Edited 5248d ago )

DROPBOX SUPPORT

enough said....finally a worthwhile update, SEN is finally stepping its game up bigtime

Panzerkanzler5248d ago

Dropbox? Never heard of it.

sikbeta5248d ago

Nice and all, of course better than the crap updates that didn't add s***, I'm expecting more features to be added now that Vita is coming, well I'm hoping for that :P

Masta_fro5247d ago

Youtube is STILL 240p which sucks ass!!!!

darthv725247d ago

my company uses dropbox for things. Pretty neat. It's basically a cloud storage option. You have dropbox client on your pc and can put stuff there and pull it down from any other dropbox client.

Yess this works great now. Much more support and it works alot faster. vwvortex.com ,weedblog, n4g,and smokingmeatfours all work fine on the ps3 now.

edit Youtube seems smoother and millerwelds work normal now.
edit 2 @ Godmars290... in Canada can't get hulu anyways ( at least where I am)

Godmars2905248d ago

Still, you likely wont be able to watch Hulu and if you can watch Youtube better, you wont the next day.

Downloading it now and I'm in the States.

Darth_Bane795248d ago

There is a Hulu app for the PS3 you can download for free at the PS store. It works just like Netflix

yesmynameissumo5248d ago

While Google Music now loads, you can't listen to you library via the browser. You CAN download you songs to your PS3 and play them though. WIN.

yesmynameissumo5248d ago

Just cleared cache...everything deleteable. Now Google Music Works!

FlareDReborn5248d ago

Alas one can watch porn is peace.

Darth_Bane795248d ago

You could watch porn already.. I used Xvideos, always worked.

Pushagree5248d ago

Wow n4g doesnt freeze on ps3 anymore. Web browser is 100x better now.

Dammit. I wanted to try out the browser before I updated so I know how well it works now (haven't used the browser in a couple years), but then it froze and now it's "checking and restoring file system"... Am I f**ked? I think I'm f**ked.

Anyway, it's about time that they updated the browser. I know there's a lot of people who only have a PS3 as their browser.

Edit: It seems fine now. Updating.

KUV19775248d ago

The translation of the time-thingy is terrible. There is now an option to let the PS3 auto-sync the time with the internet upon connection to the PSN.

falloutx5248d ago

The web browser is much better it hasn't frozen once since the update. Hopefully this isn't just a one time thing and they keep updating the browser.

soraalam15247d ago

Guys, for HD YouTube on PS3, check out PS3YouTube.com. You can even download any video!

Krew_925247d ago

Yeah the time was always getting messed up, you had to constantly be changing it because it moved drastically.

This new automatic time update is really helpful.

Not available in the US yet.

princejb1345248d ago

im in the us and im downloading now

jwk945248d ago

Yeah, it just went live.

ChiVoLok05248d ago

I was going to tell you it was but then I remembered I don't live in the U.S. anymore

mttrackmaster385248d ago

Was just about to play Kingdoms of Amalur, but it wouldn't let me sync my EA account(for my free dlc) before I download this big ass update. Who even uses the ps3 browser?

Arksine5248d ago

There are other reasons for the update, but the most noticable for the end user is the browser.

I think sometimes folks forget that the PS3 is also a bluray player. I suspect that most of the PS3 updates have to do with that functionality. I know my standalone bluray player requires firmware updates fairly often.

edwineverready5248d ago

I do as i don't have a pc or laptop.

Dee_915248d ago (Edited 5248d ago )

I get tired of watching porn on my laptop and at my desk.
I like to lay out on the couch , stretch,watch big booties on big tv.
And I watch movies on letmewatchthis :D

Allowen5248d ago (Edited 5248d ago )

The PS3 web browser used to rock (never crashed) for quite a long time but then it is atm (before fw4.10) freezing my console all the time .

I guess now I will be able to use this nice web browser once again !

BTW I don t know why people hate this WB so much since it is actually good to be used to answer e-mails , checj gaming; other news etc.
I got a PC not far away from my PS3 but I rather just use my console if I am going to check "simple " web pages.

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.

solideagle53d 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

Relientk7753d ago

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

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde60d 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.

Soy61d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

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

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Relientk7762d ago

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga62d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit61d ago (Edited 61d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199261d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga61d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac61d ago (Edited 61d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman61d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger61d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box62d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion61d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7262d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7562d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit61d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14962d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7762d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
