Confirmed: PS3 Firmware 3.15 dated and detailed

34 Comments | posted

Just a little smidgen of news for you today. We’re getting reports that the PlayStation 3′s firmware 3.15 will be released very soon.

Firmware 3.10 brought limited Facebook integration and a fix for the ugly friends list. The unconfirmed firmware 3.15 will bring…well we don’t know.

[UPDATE] – All we know is that there should be fixes for controller pairing, the ability to transfer data between two PS3′s linked with an Ethernet cable (converting saves should be easier now), and PSP minis will now be…playable on PS3s.

The firmware, rumoured on Neogaf, is said to be posted in only two days time on December 10th.

Could this be the PS3 firmware update we’ve been waiting for? We doubt that it’s time for cross-game voice chat, since Sony would most likely have given the update a more significant collection of digits.

Our friends at TheSixthAxis have also brought us news that Sony will update the PlayStation Store on the 22nd December this Christmas and then over two weeks later on January 7th.

[UPDATE 2] – This firmware update has now been confirmed by Sony Europe. Find details on its key features on page 2.

  • Does this improve the BC? I wanna play Digital Devil Saga on my 60 gb PS3 properly.

  • Does this mean that games for the mini can be bought and played on the PS3 without having to buy one? So i can play Peace Walker on the PS3 instead of buying a PSP?

  • I hope I will be able to turn on my PS3 with my DS3 now. I (and many others) have had syncing problems since 3.10

  • Does transfer of info mean the transfer of trophies too? That and voice chat is all I want. Sony screwed my account over and wont help me and typing msg is so old school compared to vocue msg like on 360.

  • i have a question. The ethernet transfer thingy, will it allow me to transfer saves which say “Not allowed”? Like demons souls and dragon age saves? I just got a new harddrive and i dont want to start the games all over again. So will this ethernet connection let me transfer those save files?

  • Cross-game chat??????????/

  • hopefully it fixes the syncing with controllers, and the syncing of trophies problems.
    im really starting to get sick of having to plug in my controller and sit 2 inches away from my TV.
    rang sony yesterday about these issues, FAT help that was.
    as usual they just played dumb pretending these issues are not happening.
    ive got a good mind to get my money back for the 4 controllers i bought.
    i did not spent 400 bucks for wireless controllers to end up having to plug them in if i want to use them.
    if i wanted to do that i could of bought 4 PS2 adapters for 40 bucks and done the same thing.
    only sony could get away with breaking something, than charge you to fix their fuck up.

  • What i would really like to see, is an update which will allow us to use out own picture as an avatar. I am sick of those crap made up avatars. Also if they can make I-tunes for the PS3 it will be sick. Too bad i can’t use the features of 3.10 because I can’t sync my trophies for some reason. I try over and over again, but i says some error 80328854…… BLA BLA……

  • dead_zombies: I’m afraid not.
