Sony looking into reported Firmware 3.0 issues

also no problems with Uncharted except a lock up in the game weird

umm MAYBE they JUST got a PS3?? and thereby JUST got the game as well....

smh...dick

I think I did it 4.2 times.

Once through right when it came out. Started it on the harder setting, gave up after a while.

Later, when DualShock came out I played it through again on regular. Finished it shortly before the trophies patch. Waited for the trophies patch, then started on crushing. Found it, well, crushing, and so did it on hard, then after doing it on hard I went back and did it again on crushing and it was a total PITA.

It's one of the few games I have platinum on.

It is a bummer that you kind of lose excitement over the movies with repeated plays. Which doesn't seem right since the movies are the some of the best ever made. But such is life.

One weird part is that the peak in difficulty on crushing in the game comes early, it's as you're headed for the library in the kind of fort area. The big firefights before that in the jungles are hard too. After that, it's a lot of puzzling, which doesn't get much harder, and oddly, the fighting after the twist is easy, even on crushing, neither the type Z nor type N baddies are particularly harder on crushing than regular. The final battle is total kick in the shorts though.

I saw it coming with Xbox Live ads, they gotta pay the bills somehow, hopefully that means better articles and news

Hopefully the funding will go to fix the avatar system that's been broken for almost a year now (and they've been well aware of it for over 7 months. Problem can't be that severe)

Umm ... we've always had ads. (???)

Reply fail.

I played through the whole game with my Slim on 2.80 then 3.0. Didn't lock up once.

I did get it to lock up after I beat the game though. Went to the in-game XMB, selected a video I wanted to watch, told it ok to exit the game...3 beeps and one black screen later it was locked. The button holding trick didn't work like with my old 60GB, had to yank the power cable. Yuck.

The issue seems completely random. I have an original 60 GB launch model and I haven't had any freezing issues. I don't think there is anyway to know for sure.

Yes

My internet speeds did not really change, but I have no problems with the update. Both my imported white DS3's work just fine.

I like the update well enough. A little sloppy, but I don't know why so many people are crying.

i got a bravia lcd connected with hdmi and it does that. it's like changing the input but you just boot up a game or movie.

Same here and I'm on a Sharp Aquos. It is like it's changing the signal for a split second.

They actually took that splash screen out completely. It's part of their rebranding process since they're moving away from the Spider-Man font logo. They removed it and didn't replace it with anything.

It's normal. The slim, with 2.78 out of the box, didn't have the game startup jingle and logo. Did the same with 2.80 and now 3.0. I kinda miss it from my 60GB but if it makes games start 1 second earlier, that's fine with me.
