The next firmware for the PS3 is now currently live and it add?s another social layer to the console, along with what appears to be a better patching system.

Firmware 3.41 for the PS3 is now available, and it contains a new type of recommendation system for videos and games on the PlayStation Store.

If you?re browsing through the store and looking at the information on a game or video, a new option on the right hand side is available entitled ?You May Like?. This is based upon data crawled from other user?s who purchased whatever your looking at.


Also, according to an analysis on the new firmware by CJPC on a forum on PS3 News the new patch is only 40mb, and is an incremental update. What?s nice about Sony now using this feature, is that instead of having updates in the range of a few hundred mb?s each time, they remain smaller and only provide the new functionality needed.

Given the new auto update in PSN+ this is less data for users to download, and could cut the update time in half.

As future updates come out, we will keep on this and see how the file size?s progress.
