PS3 firmware 3.42 mandatory update released

Monday, 06 September 2010 23:33 Last Updated on Monday, 06 September 2010 23:50 Written by Joshua Harris

In the past couple of weeks, some PS3 Jailbreak code (PS groove, PS freedom) has been making its rounds on the internet allowing you to run this software on various devices (USB sticks, TI-84 calculators, Dingoo a320, etc) that could connect into the PlayStation 3 via USB and allow the users to run homebrew software and games that were installed to the hard drive.

Well, Sony isn't too keen on this and just released firmware update 3.42, which will be a mandatory update.  It has been verified that this firmware update does, in fact, remove the ability to use the PS3 Jailbreak devices.  Let the cat and mouse games begin and let's see how long it takes for developers to get the PS3 Jailbreak code working again.

About Us

World-Gaming Network is a gaming website for gamers by gamers. With a no nonsense approach to news, reviews and previews, from people who will tell you like it is, as your friend. There are many sites that will give you news/reviews/previews but none that will give them to you like one of your friends. Founded over 9 years ago by two gamers that were born with a controller in their hand, we have come to realize that there are no gaming websites that take this approach. We give you the World-Gaming Network, your friend in the business.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
