There are a lot of people on reddit saying this patch breaks the console. If any of you get the notification to update it or however it works on the ps3, you shouldn't do it.

I hope I got here in time to save some of you guys.

Now have a picture

Too late, I've already downloaded it. You have to download it to play The Last of Us!:cry:

Anyway, it didn't mess anything up. My console is good.:D Thanks for the warning Kman.

No, it came with the game. If I had to go online then I would have probably gotten a 360.:P

Took me a while to get that joke :lol:

I didn't know system updates came with games. Are you sure it was the same one? There have been plenty of people who have played The Last of Us, but I didn't hear anythig about the update until today.

I just checked and it's 4.41... If any game requires version 4.45 then I'll probably wait until I can get a different update with a newer game. Big mistake by Sony.:x

Hoe could they let this happen? Don't they test these things before they release them?

Gamespot said it's happening to consoles over 500GB. They probably figured it wouldn't make a difference.:P

Hopefully they can find a way to fix these consoles.

I was lucky enough not to download the update. It would have ended terribly for me since I have a 500GB PS3.

Oh... I misread his post. I thought he said it didn't save him because he didn't play games in days so he didn't get a chance to update.

Sorry TLR :(

If any of you or your loved ones were harmed by this tragedy, Sony has announced that a cure would be made available on June 27

"Hi all,

Here is the latest on this issue:

We have identified the issue related to the PlayStation 3 software update (version 4.45) that impacted a small number of PS3 systems earlier this week. A new PS3 system software update is planned to be released on June 27 that resolves the issue. Thank you for your patience and understanding and we apologize for the inconvenience. 

If there is any further updates between now and 6/27, we will drop them here. 

We will also update on 6/27 when it is available, and steps on how to implement the solution.

Thank you

- morgan haro / mochuuu, SCEA PSN Community Management Team, @morganharo "

Facebook games are so bad. You have to make your friends play with you if you want to get ahead. even if they don't want to.

And a lot of other games I've played have started to adopt that FB Facebook game kind of style. It's really irritating.
