PlayStation 3 Firmware Update 3.01 Slips Out
Following the highly anticipated and somewhat maligned release of Firmware 3.0 for PlayStation 3, owners of the console reported problems ranging from Uncharted not playing, DualShock controllers not being recognised, and in extreme cases, PS3s simply ceasing to function (see our solution to that one here).

Well, Sony has now informed the world of 3.01 in a much quieter manner than the arrival of 3.0. The US blog states:

"Hi everyone, PS3 system software update 3.01 is now available for download. This is an optional update that improves system stability during use of some PlayStation 3 format software."

Sony's Eric Lempel also points out, "Yes, this will fix the issues that some users have experienced with Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune."

Hey, at least Uncharted works now, right? That was easily one of the best PS3 titles out and the sequel is just going to be better. Now anyone can own a Playstation 3 for FREE, right now! All you have to do is follow the link and follow the instructions and claim your free PS3!
