Usually PlayStation 3 Demonstration Firmware updates follow the official Retail console updates. Strangely, this time PS3 Firmware 2.51 was released for the Demo unit first.
This could be a result of conflicts with the Recovery Menu and the Demonstration unit itself perhaps.
The password to unlock PlayStation 3 Firmware 2.5 Demo units is 6258.

Does this game support cross progression? I still have not beaten the first (I got sidetracked with lots of other games) and Id like to pick up where I left off through this version.
To clarify, I played it on PS3 OG version. Imported that save to my PS4 remaster, imported that one to the PS5 remake. Hope that makes it more clear. ;)
@darth72 Oops sorry, my wife you told me the remake DID NOT support old saves. She said I restarted the game and usually she have a great memory. So sorry, it seems I was wrong about the remake! :(
@CobraKai Yes, that is impressive, especially as she ain't a gamer herself.
I was probably talking about having to start a new game in the Remake and it stuck in her memory I guess. 🤷😁
Game reviews have been around since the mid-1970s. Play Meter was the first of its kind. During their time, it was mainly coin-operated machines that were covered, as certain arcade games that many of us consider classics such as Space Invaders were popular. Other publications sprang up, such as Arcade Alley in 1979. From then on, gaming journalism was on the rise. Electronic Games Magazine, Famitsu, The Games Machine, Nintendo Power, and others all gave way to gaming journalism’s growing popularity and importance. In the beginning, gaming journalism was about the love of the games, the history of the product, and giving potential consumers genuine insight. The passion was there. The commitment was there. The insight was there. And most importantly, the trust was there.
"I've got a great idea! Let's turn this article about corporate journalism into an attack on gamers!"
Honestly, I find it amusing how all the incel hater left over rejects from gamer's gate lose their shit every time a non-scantily clad female protagonist is announced. Lol, they should just get out of gaming -- clearly it isn't for them anymore.
They've become nothing more than corporate shills. Rather than speaking truth to power, they're just looking at the latest clickbait no matter how false it is.
The straight up lies are annoying. Then journalists claim that a lie is an opinion. Um... no.
yea its been like this for years and only has gotten worse during covid.
they are sometimes worse than celeb. trash news ha.
"you will NOT believe what the DEV of XYZ said"
or and those are my favourites,
"XYZ game gets REMASTER TREATMENT" and you click on the link and its just a god damn mod ha.
"XYZ Players are saying THIS about the new update!"
And the article is based on a single tweet from someone with an anime profile image
It's going to get even worse because IGN bought out a bunch of their competition this year. So IGN now publishes games, sells games, reviews the games they publish and sell, and controls a large portion of games media. What could go wrong?
N4G owners are the worst for that.
One tweet or reddit comment = full blown article
The gaming landscape today is full of corporations trying to suck as much money out of us as possible while giving us as little as possible in return that's the biggest problem I see right now and the fact the journos should be the ones calling the gross practices out now suckle at the teat of the publishers to stay in favour and maintain working relationships to avoid being blacklisted for reviews and preview events show their interests do not align with ours.
Hey Chris, not sure if others have already suggested but here’s another idea for N4G, a website trust meter.
There used to be a way to click on the website of an article and downvote or something like that.
It can be like Steam’s rating, all time & recent.
Then the list of journalism website ratings accessible from a subdomain, jowebrat.n4g dot com :)
@victorMaje No, this site user opinions? NO. This is not how it works my Victor. Trust meter??? LOL.
User reviews... this is what you have to look for, because games are made for users... not journalists.
Even if something is review bombed... there has to be a reason, something is wrong and you should hold on with your hard earned money.
Game sites are pushing... what they need to push, or want to push, or both.
Yes always seek out facts, right on Chris.
@SimpleDad
Of course games are made for users. That’s the whole point. I already seek out facts. Check my comment history you’ll see how I always advise to check trusted user reviews & I don’t pre-order.
Some journalism sites however do have user reviews, they’re not all bad journalism, these would raise the trust score of the journalism website, other stories with an agenda or disingenuous reviews could lower it.
Why not have such a tool coming out of N4G? It would be the metacritic of journalism websites, voted by N4G users. That doesn’t mean one should stop from also seeking user reviews.
@victor that was an old feature on N4G. It went away before bubbles iirc.
Bubbles were how many comments we were allowed to make per story and you could earn more or lose them. Trolls would have 1 bubble. New users were limited to the number of comments so that prevented spam accounts.
A user like me had 12 bubbles right before it went away.
I miss bubbles.... and Cat.
***Even if something is review bombed... there has to be a reason, something is wrong and you should hold on with your hard earned money. ***
Rarely are review bombs rational. Rarely.
Entering Q4 and with the impending release of the PS5 Pro and major AAA titles this holiday season, Dragon's Dogma 2 has a golden opportunity for DLC.
I have to disagree. Personally, I feel like DD2 still needs a lot of optimization. I really dislike games that try to sell a bunch of DLC when their game is still a mess.
So... What does this mean for us ? Nothing
Lets Go Dark Alex Lets Go *clap clap*

hmmmm, I wont be downloading any random files that most likely dont even do anything. Im sure if it was really a major update it would be released already to everyone.
I was trying to access the store from my psp the other day and was told I needed to update my fw. Go figure version 5.00 was just released and now there is 5.01. Must be released to fight the more recent custom 5.00 from dark alex.
I hadnt even seen anything posted about it.
Reason is i always get scared that the next firmware update my have severe problems in mass use and could cause system failures. im glad they check em before we get ours
