Feels so weird seeing updates for the PS3 in 2025.

Amplitude55d ago

The only reason they do it is to give very tiny inconveniences to the modding community. I'm surprised they even still bother. They haven't even done this to the Vita in quite a while

fsfsxii55d ago

The update is for Bluray drive keys, to keep them functioning. the system is cracked wide open by hackers since ages ago, it wouldnt make sense to cover exploits on a retired system.

Chocoburger55d ago

It needs updates for Blu-ray keys in order to watch newer movies. But also likely security updates as well.

Amplitude52d ago

oh word my bad. Makes sense

OhReginald55d ago

I love my multiple phat backwards compatible 60gb ps3s.

jznrpg55d ago

I have 2 and love them as well. I had the shell of one of them refinished so one is nice and shiny.

Dagexon55d ago

I found one in a charity shop for 40 quid (best find ever!) I fell in love and got another. My first one got nicked and got a replacement so I still have 2.

Chuuzuu55d ago

My original launch day "phat" PS3 is still part of my entertainment center and running like it was new, I've never had a game system last this long. It's had no repairs whatsoever except for taking it apart a couple of times to clean out the dust but of course I had to upgrade the HDD from it's original capacity. I've got a handful of games that I still break out and play every once in a while on it.

Why would anyone continue to update their PS3 in 2025?

My old PS4 has been disconnected from the Internet since 2020. If I keep it I can mod it and if I sell it, it will have a higher value.

gold_drake55d ago

i still play my ps3 and download games.

so ... yeh.

badz14955d ago

me too. there were lots of gems on the PS3 I think I want to play that I didn't get the time to play before. plus the used games are dirt cheap now. good luck finding Deadpool though haha. that game and its PS4 port are worth more than gold now.

RedDevils54d ago

You can still play online with it.

Kassanova0755d ago

It's for Blue Ray movie playback.

PS3 Update 4.91 Released and Does What You Expect This Feb. 27

You read that headline right! It's not a typo, as Sony has released PS3 update 4.91 this Feb. 27 2024, and it does what players might expect.

darthv72427d ago

It says it is for an updated Blueray key but we all know its to also try and patch the exploits that were found in 4.90. And soon this one will be exploited and released as CFW 4.91

Pyrofire95426d ago (Edited 426d ago )

One day the PS3 is gonna be the most STABLE OS every created.
I think I might as well look into some Homebrew at this point. There's probably a cool scene on it.

aaronaton426d ago

I play my PS3 on a CRT @576i. There is a clear bug that Trophies aren't popping up once earned, you hear the noise, but they do not appear at the top right.

CobraKai426d ago

You hold on to that CRT for as long as you can.

anast426d ago

They are still supporting the PS3 that's one reason why people prefer Sony gaming.

FinalFantasyFanatic425d ago

I only finished Xenogears on it in January, nice to see it's still getting the ocassional update.

Whatever Happened To Virtua Tennis?

Sega's prominent tennis sim just couldn't be beat. And then vanished without a trace. Why?

Answer: Sega.

You could change the name of the game in the title that was awesome in its day, could still be around today because of its fun factor with a remake, remaster or sequel, that's in their huge back catalog, that's no longer being produced as a franchise. And the answer would still be the same: Sega.

As much as I love their games and their spunky attitude. That Sega no longer exists that I grew up with. The current company is a mere shadow of its former self with only a few moments of grandeur. Which is why owning their previous consoles like Dreamcast, is a necessary thing if you want to continue playing games like Virtua Tennis. The reason why I have two of them just in case one stops working. And of course emulation on the go. Wink. Dreams do come in red.

Terry_B903d ago

Virtua Tennis 3 and 4 didnt sell well. Thats all.

senorfartcushion903d ago

Both Virtua Tennis and Top Spin have gone. It’s annoying for tennis game players.

CBaoth903d ago (Edited 903d ago )

Yeah....all 5 of them. Obviously, game budgets now outweigh profit for what essentially boils down to Pong. I'm not talking about coders but licensing costs. Boxing, golf, etc...all fall in this category where real life athletes far supersede their worth in video games. Same thing occurred to Sony's Playstation All-stars. Sony spent 2 generations helping to cultivate all these 3rd party mascots into recognizable assets but when it came to license them for a game, they didn't want to pay the exorbitant fee. That game's 1 million sales didn't warrant a sequel and I very much doubt ANY tennis game could reach that sales plateau

senorfartcushion903d ago

It’s funny how you’re over the age of 3 and don’t know how to read properly 😅😅 Why the bizarre response?

Yi-Long903d ago

I couldn’t care less about licensing in a tennis or golf game. I don't need real-life players or locations/tournaments.

Just give me some fun cool characters, some courts/courses in varied gorgeous locations, and use the Virtua Tennis or Everybody’s Golf gameplay. That’s it.

ActualEngineer903d ago

I used to play tennis IRL and in videogames. My 2-cents is that a boring game that was simulating an extremely boring sport, was thrown under the rug, now that the devs can produce more complex and interesting games.

It's like the tetris-like games and games like space-invaders, that stopped being produced ... it is because they were good and simple to make in the early days of commercial videogame development but they are just not as interesting as, let's say, an open-world coop arpg ...
