PlayStation 3 Updates and In-Game XMB

 Print This Article |  Email This Article

The PlayStation 3 2.36 Update is out now (so I’ve heard) and coming soon will be the 2.40 Update that will finally allow users to access the PlayStation’s menu bar options in-game. We’ve long been able to see our friends come online, but we’ve always had to completely exit a game to send messages or read ones we’ve gotten. It’s about time they fixed this.

New system software updates will be heading your way for PLAYSTATION 3 soon, offering a batch of goodies for your system.

Update 2.36 will touch down first, improving system stability for select PlayStation software titles. Following that will be the 2.40 system software update for PLAYSTATION 3, which will include a number of extras to enhance your games experience.

Included in the update will be PS3 Home Menu (XMB) access in-game, which will allow you to venture into the PLAYSTATION 3 system’s menu without having to quit your current game, support for trophies so your unlocked achievements in certain games will never go unnoticed, and a range of other features to make sure your gaming experience stays as sharp as your skills.

Finally, finally, finally. Being able to stay in a game and have access to all the other stuff is huge. I don’t even care much about all the other goodies involved.
