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.

the ability to transfer data between 2 ps3′s?? if this is what i think it is, this might be great, i think this was an issue with some people if i remember right
Hope they start making Ethernet Cables in 1/4 mile increments cuz I dont plan on picking up my fragile big black box to take over to a friends, and risk dropping or damaging anytime soon.
what i really want to see is a real media player. sure out of the box it “does everything” but why not give us a REAL music application like itunes or a sony equivalent? having a library larger than a few hundred songs is difficult to manage and for a device that boasts having such high quality quality media components, it should have capable software to back them up.
Play PSP minis on the PS3??? Awesome!!
Some very interesting mini’s 2 buy!
disappointed in the update ;(
Was hoping for something else too.
Like.. more video codecs? but i guess its just an optional update. Wont be updating till 3.20 then.
note: no 2nd ps3.. or do i buy psp-minis.
We’ve only talked about the key features, there may be more.
To #3, wasn’t it already announced a month or so ago that Sony is developing a music service like iTunes for the PS3?
Freaking sweet. I guess they thought of people who were upgrading to slims
you have to buy a data cable for xbox to do that last one….ahaha at great expense….nice one sony, another freebee… face book is great cant w8 to start that up…..colour friends cards good…. now wheres my new play tv with the new high deff standard just introduced the other day, (i herd tha on bc click 2 days ago..- fresh news!)

@alex c
Its really sad that in order for you to enjoy this news, you have to bash the 360.
So the ability to play PSP minis on PS3 eh? I have my PSP for that so not really that fussed lol.
As for everything else there it’s just the same old. I wonder when we’ll be getting some more avatars, as promised by SCEE……..
Great, they bring out that feature just before my PS3 goes off to sony to be repaired. In the time it has been broken, my housemate has bought his own ps3 and has lost all his save games and stuff from my PS3 including his 1 day+ play time on COD and all his stats are lost.
Psp minis on the ps3. Sweet. Now they need to make the ability to run psp games on ps3 as well
hows about fixing the video output to hdmi and component at the same time.
im sick of changing the options for different tvs.
