PS3 Firmware update will be coming soon. We'll find out a more solid date at GDC on the 25th when Insomniac announces their DLC and Patch dates.
I don't keep up to date with rumours and what-not, but can you expand on this please?
Mind you, it's not long to wait...
Good enough dude.
I'll take my GDC thoughts to an appropriate thread...
I think Jeff Rubenstein wrote off these rumors in one of his comments on the Blog. He mentioned that there is no upgrade in March (well, at that time of the writing).
Netherlands-gaming site, PS3Hype, has reported that one of their users was downloading firmware update 2.70 on their PlayStation 3 today, only to have it stop at 80%. PS3Hype is guessing that Sony mistakenly put it up for download but then removed it, similar to what happened with Life with PlayStation.
So, if this was true and it did go up, does this mean we can expect an announcement today? Tomorrow?
Just got this from a prominent PS3 developer at GDC: “PS3 Firmware 2.70 definitely this week. Developers got it yesterday.”
The update was rumoured to have gone live this afternoon, but was apparently withdrawn.
This source is concrete, kids. Watch for an announcement in the next few days.
Sony plans to launch PlayStation 3 firmware 2.7 "in April", according to a pair of developers speaking to Eurogamer anonymously.

I'll wait a while to see if it pans out. I was excited , thinking I had guessed it, but i was wrong earlier
... and what might the big gripe be ?
