PS3 Firmware 1.5 Update is Here!
Sony quietly released it's next Firmware upgrade version 1.5 today. While it is for the most part a pretty minor update. There is one improvement that is many will be glad to see.
PS2 GAMES NO LONGER LOOK LIKE JAGGED PIXXELY CRAP ON THE PS3!This is fantastic news, and let me be one of the first to say thank you Sony for listening to all of the PS3 owners out there and getting this fixed sooner rather than later. In some cases, it has already been reported that PS2 games may even look BETTER on the PS3. This is not really a surprise, considering the processing power of the PS3, and may give some added incentive for PS2 owners to upgrade.
The rest of the firmware updates are hardly even notable, but here is the official list:
