Hi Guys

The next system software update for PS3 will be available very soon. Update 3.15 is an optional update and has two key features which are explained below –

'minis' come to PS3:

PS3 minis

We launched minis on PSN back in October in conjunction with the PSPgo, but in the next couple of weeks you will be able to enjoy these bite size games on your PS3 as well as your PSP.

Check out great titles like 'Blast off' (8.5/10 – IGN), 'Fieldrunners', "a wonderfully crafted casual nugget" (8/10 – Eurogamer) or 'Kahoots', "a must-buy" (8/10 – Videogamer).

There is something for everyone with minis, whether you want to play them on the go with your PSP or in the comfort of your home on PS3.

If you have already brought a mini for PSP and want to get it on your PS3 as well, just go to your download list in the Store and download it again for free. The game will then work on your PS3 as well. Simple!

PS3 Data Transfer:

PS3 Data Transfer Utility

This feature enables you to easily transfer all of your saved data from one PS3 to another. So if you decide to get a new PS3 you can make sure you don't loose any of your existing content. Content such as games, game save data, and videos downloaded from PlayStation Network can be transferred to the new PS3 system and deleted from the current PS3. Other content, including personal media files (photos, music, videos), can be copied onto the new PS3 and remain on the current PS3 system.

The process is really simple

  1. Turn both the current PS3 (A) and new PS3 (B) on and connect them with a LAN cable; PS3 (A) should be connected to the TV
  2. On the XMB of PS3 (A), scroll to the Settings menu and select [System Settings] and then [Data Transfer Utility]
  3. Follow the instructions on-screen and transfer data
  4. After transferring the data, follow the instructions on-screen, and then connect PS3 (B) to the TV to view the XMB
  5. If content that was downloaded from PlayStation Store was transferred as part of this operation, you must activate PS3 (B) before you can use the data. Log in to the PS3 system as the user who owns the content, and then select (PlayStation Network) > (Account Management) > (System Activation) to activate the system

So what do you think ?

I wonder if it works with copy protected saves. Since it's transferring and not copying I would assume so.

Taken from Kotaku. "Minis, which we touched on briefly last week, will be showing up in their own special section of the PlayStation Store come October 1st, giving PSP owners smaller-sized games at a lower price, perfect for the UMD-less PSP Go. Titles in the Minis section will all be limited to 100MB or less, meaning you can pack quite a few in between your full PSP titles. "

i gotta think that will include copy protected saves... not really that much of a point to it if it doesn't.. but good move for sony, i was thinking of upgrading to a slim about a month ago, but i didn't want to lose my demons souls save so i just upgraded my harddrive instead.

I just bought a PS3 and it's taking about 1-2 hours to do the first system update (which I think is 3.15). Is this normal? Updates to my other consoles rarely take more than 30 seconds.

The data transfer would be more useful if you could set it to update automatically if you have a couple of ps3's on the same system. The lack of this and having to play everything twice is probably the main reason i'm holding off buying a second ps3.

Don't bump old threads. If you have a question related to the topic, and the last post of an existing topic on the subject was over a week ago, it's best to make your own thread.
