Sony sued over PS3 firmware update problems Fri, 06 Nov 2009 09:35:00 +1100
Posted by Pits
What is the difference between a PS3 with the system update firmware version 3 and a brick? Not much to the people suing Sony. Their machines have become useless ever since downloading the upgrade and looks like an expensive brick now. The two plaintiffs have got machines that will not turn on, able to access Blu-Ray drives or the controllers either. Sony support says that the system failures are coincidental and are offering to fix it…. for $150.So they are now trying to aim for a class action suit to force Sony to fix it. No comment has been made by Sony at this time.

 

Do you know anyone who has had their PS3 fail following these firmware updates?
