Optional PS3 firmware update released
According to SuperFastZombie, an online support co-ordinator for the English PlayStation community, the optional update improves system stability.
Sony claimed that month that worldwide PS3 sales to retailers hit 80 million units on November 2, eight years after the system launched.
As of September 30, Sony said 4,332 software titles had been released for PS3 worldwide, excluding downloadable games. A further 300 will be released this winter, including this Friday's Gran Turismo 6, the latest entry in PlayStation's best-selling franchise.
The PlayStation Network, which launched alongside PS3 in 2006, now operates in 59 countries and, as of September 19, had amassed more than 150 million registered accounts. PSN's global catalogue offers over 222,000 digital content options, including 72,000 pieces of game content, according to Sony.
PS4 launched in North America on November 15 and two weeks later in Europe and Latin America. Worldwide PS4 sales stand at 2.1 million units, Sony Computer Entertainment CEO Andrew House said on Tuesday morning.

It's still good that they keep everything up and going good I would hope Mircosoft would do the same.

LavishYop Super slim model? Where can you find this? I haven't seem to find this in any local stores.
I don't think it is in stores quite yet.
I think it is something that has just been "announced".
It's been available for around a year now, actually - My friend bought one along with his copy of Black Ops 2 at the midnight release, last year!

Rant Not sure why they would make it optional if it improves system stability.
Because not everyone has access to the internet.
They still want people who can only play SP continue to be able to play.

UMFLavishI agree, unless you had a modified console...Katsumi Optional... may as well give it a download
Exactly, lol.
I don't know why people wouldn't chose to improve their experience.
Well if you had a modified console, you wouldn't want to improve your experience.

KatsumiLavish It seems like all the comments are just about the picture of this super slim model PS3 rather than the update, haha.
Pretty odd if you ask me. I guess people are just taking it as the same old thing as usual.
I'm still confused as to if it is going to be an actual console.
There is a whole article about a "super slim model" on another website.
