Sony Possibly Testing New PS4 Firmware Features

It's amazing how job offers on the official PlayStation listing gives us a fair idea on what the company is currently working on or is planning to work on in the future.

Off topic, anyone having the Thumnbail not showing problem again?

[Kayant]

Yh :(.... Should be gone/better by tomorrow.

OT - News at 101. Development team at an organisation is actively developing/testing new software. Who would have guessed...

[one2thr]

I am, I thought it was because of my connection.

[Eonjay]

The job listing is very telling.

[Lwhit6]

I don't see why this is news. Sony should/likely is testing new firmware features all the time.

[Kayant]

Don't you know the OS team tasked speicifally with development don't do their job and sits down, drink tea and biscuits all day /s.

[wsoutlaw87]

so thats the type of job you get if you finish college?

[Muzikguy]

I was thinking the same thing. This isn't news at all! Then I saw "Gamingbolt.com" and it all made sense

[bleedsoe9mm]

Instant resume would be nice since it was a feature at the reveal event and xb1 has had it since launch

[jmac53]

Wow, this is amazing news! Sony is working on firmware for the PS4 and they are hiring someone to do it. Stop the presses!

[user367272]

Is it me or does it seems that Gamingbolt and Dualshockers articles always seems to pop up daily and listing stuff from job posting to twitter conversation that just isn't really gaming relevant news at all while other real game articles are just sitting in the backburner for days without any approval support.

[WeAreLegion]

For once, you and I agree on something. :)

[1nsomniac]

Absolutely, these silly articles should be labelled as spam.

[Muzikguy]

I'm down voting this site "gamingbolt" from now on. I hope it gets banned. What trash IMO

@Sadist below
I've seen stories about upcoming releases yet to be announced before. Don't underestimate gaming journalism!

[OB1Biker]

Except that Dualshockers is way more relevant than Gamingbot which is a trolling site imo

[wsoutlaw87]

yep this website is pretty much crap. Its sad to think this is supposed to be a gaming website but all the real game news doesnt get approved or read, just the crazy rumors and stupid opinions

[hesido]

"The listing for the Compatibility Tester possibly indicates that Sony are testing out a new firmware update."

It's a continuous process, for your information. They used to test, they are now testing, they will be testing.

[Sadist3]

Um, of course Sony is working on new firmware. This is obvious, it's not news. That's like posting news that Sony is coming out with new game announcements sometime soon.

[1nsomniac]

Really? Is this article needed??

GamingBolt on point as always!

@Rashid, I wish you would stop submitting these pointless GamingBolt articles.

[-EvoAnubis-]

Yes, they're testing new firmware features. In related completely obvious news, I heard a rumor that they're also planning on making new games for the PS4, perhaps even for the next 8 years or more!

Seriously GamingBolt, piss right off with this.

[ipach]

they should've been hiring these folks years ago! let us change our usernames!!! and convert sub-accounts to master!!!!

[koston3647]

as said above...

Instant Resume needs a date.
that was touted in the Feb. Reveal and is not here.

[KingKevo]

The article makes it sound like a firmware update is something special that we did not know if it was going to happen or not. I mean, c'mon, of course updates will come and people have to test them.. Ridiculous article if you just think about it.

[Gorilla_Killa_X]

This just in.....Sony possibly working on releasing more games in the future.

[spoonard]

You'd think Sony is ALWAYS testing new features for the firmware for the PS4.
