More updates...
PS3 Firmware 2.17
A bit of a surprise this one but but as surprise that appears to do nothing. From what rumours I've heard it's to patch up a problem with allowing ISO (disc images) to be run from the HDD in a similar way to something that was possbile on PS2's. We are due 2.20 at the end of the month which is supposed to be packed with features and I'll update as soon as it's gone live.
PSP Firmware 3.93
Another slightly pointless update to the PSP and not the 4.0 version people were expecting. The only two things this adds is more support to PS1 titles and added Internet radio stations.
CoD4 has just received another patch which sadly hasn't fixed the server issues that were causing problems before but has added a rather sexy set of Kill cams to. This means that you can now see in closeup how you were killed, granades get followed into the targets, claymores show the direction of the explosion, RPGs fly straight in before exploding, as do 40mm grenades, airstrikes now get followed to the their targets from the bottom of the plane. This has also fixed the lag issue with scoped weapons, which were causing them to show on target but would actually be a foot to either side of what you were shooting at.
Sadly the issue with parties etc still isn't resolved but is more stable than it was.
They have also added the players met function so you can add people you've gamed with as buddies.
SingStore has had 2 major refreshes in the last month one with 34 English tracks and the other with 24. Still no where near the 300 promised at release but it is a start. Roll on May for the US release and we may actually have the 300+ tunes and dare I say Blue tooth mics? Again there seems to be stuff that has been included on previous PS2 discs with only a couple of exceptions. It does seem to be mainly male voal indie music which is great for me.

PS3 Firmware 2.20 has dropped this morning and adds a few required features ie Blu-ray Live profile 2.0 (meaning internet content can be streamed from Blu-ray discs. The file size of Divx playback can now exceed 2GB. There is also a resume play function (finally) which means you don't have to plough through menus to resume watching a TV series, off DVD or Blu-ray.
There has also been the ability to transfer playlists from PS3 to PSP which has been needed for ages.
I've so far had no chance to have a play with these features yet but once I have. I'll formally review it's contents.
