PS3 Firmware Update 4.70 Now Available for Download - Details

4.8
Sony have made available for download the new firmware for its veteran PS3 console. The new update is numbered 4.70.
As many probably expected, the patch brings only minor changes, even if there are a couple bits and bobs changed. What’s most interesting is a new PlayStation Network icon (you can see it at the bottom of the post), that seems to be more in line with Sony Computer Entertainment’s current branding and colors.

Here are the officially listed changes:
Closed Captions are now supported for the Playback of Blu-Ray Disc titles and DVDs. To display closed captions, select [Settings] > [Video Settings] > [Closed Captions].

The style used for for closed captions, such as the font, size and color, can now be adjusted. Select [Settings] > [Video Settings] > [Closed Captions Settings].

The name and icon of [PSN™] were changed to [PlayStation™ Network].

You can update your PS3 by going to Settings -> System Update. Below you can see the new PSN icon. It’ll be interesting to see of it’ll be adopted across the board by Sony.

200 will this mess up modders or can they spoof it? if that makes any sense


You can already spoof to 4.70 so it doesn't really do anything.

JoeyKTTG This is pretty cool to be honest I just cant wait till PS4 is modded/


What the hell? Why would you want the PS4 to modded? I rather play all my games legit than cheat my way through which just ruins gaming in my opinion.

-Skittle I personally don't like the new logo, it looks too reminiscent of the PS1 logo imo


I agree, they need to work on that. That's why I'm with Xbox One, everything on here is much more professional.

Smug These updates take forever, staying on my Xbox for a bit.


My PS3 update didn't take that long, a lot faster than Xboxs. Although, they seem to have less point.
