To the ignorant masses who could not care less: YOU PAID FOR THAT FEATURE WHEN YOU BOUGHT IT WITH OTHER OS! IF I SOLD YOU A CAR THEN DAYS LATER CAME BACK AND REMOVED ITS STEREO SYSTEM BECAUSE YOU COULD LISTEN TO PIRATED CONTENT ON IT, EVEN THOUGH I HAD NO REAL EVIDENCE THAT YOU DID, WOULD THAT BE LOGICAL? IS IT FAIR THAT LOYAL SONY CUSTOMERS GET KICKED IN THE NUTS GET WHAT THEY PAID FOR TAKEN AWAY, (ON APRIL FOOL’S DAY NO LESS!) AND GET ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN RETURN FOR FOR IT!? AND ALL BECAUSE THY ARE TOO LAZY TO TAKE CARE OF THE REAL CULPRITS! HACKERS WILL NOT BE AFFECTED BY OTHER OS REMOVAL.

Like I said they neutered my PS3 to protected their precious fluffy…. Please rest assured that we will convey your feedback to Sony Computer Entertainment America’s (“SCEA”) appropriate management.” We do value your input and appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention.

“Your concerns have been heard regarding firmware update 3.21 for the PlayStation(R)3 computer entertainment system. Oh and heres sonys response to my complaint: Let me know when the class action begins-I’m there. Simple-they removed functionality we paid for and desired to protect themselves on equipment we own and threatened us with neutering other funvtionality we paid for if we didn’t. Bring it in for an airbag recall and get told “the airbag might randomly go off but to accept this update your car wont goo over 55 as a security feature”. How would poeple feel if they did this to your car. If this is the case why not just ban them like Micro$haft did on the xboxes. I hear alot about hackers using this feature to do unethical things. I intentionally bought an older fatty to use the other os feature.

We’ve included a list below of the changes and you can expect this update on April 1st. While some (us included) feel that this is just some cruel April Fool’s joke, it goes without saying that if it is a legitimate update, Sony is going to be facing quite the backlash - especially from those who have no clue to backup their data prior to updating the console.įirmware 3.21 will remove the “Other OS” functionality from all consoles and those individuals who choose not to update, will pretty much eliminate most features that their PS3’s are capable of. However, that’s exactly what Sony has done with Firmware Update 3.21. It’s hard to imagine that Sony would spend the last two to three months creating the next Firmware “update,” only to release one that doesn’t update anything at all, but downgrades.
