How to Update Your PS3

Sony releases updates for the PlayStation 3 many times throughout the year, generally adding new features to the system and fixing bugs and exploits currently existing. The update is essential to being a part of the newest experience available with your home console, and often will smooth over video or gaming issues presented in prior updates. The updates tend to be small in size, often downloading and installing in under 10 minutes, provided you have an average internet connection.
