Sony has quietly added PC remote play feature in PlayStation 3 gaming console through 3.30 system firmware update. This new update is listed on the PS3 system update page. Last week, we reported that firmware 3.30 expected soon will bring 3D stereoscopic gaming as well as some Trophy enhancements. However, Sony is planning to introduce PC Remote Play on PS3 using its future VAIO PCs. Sony will give out more details on this next month.
PS3 update 3.30 was deemed to bring 3D stereoscopic gaming with trophy enhancements but it looks like Sony has other plans. To complement 3D Stereoscopic gaming arrival, Sony will be launching 3D BRAVIA TVs.
Future VAIO branded PC models would be able to access PS3's XMB (Xross Media Bar) Interface to check out music, videos and photos. More details are expected in May at vaio.eu/playstation. Apart from that, the new 3.30 firmware update also brings updated Flash compatibility to the browser and also region free Blu-ray movie playback. The End User License Agreement got updated with a clause which states that Sony can update PS3 whenever it wants - un-announced.
Will the PS3 homebrew development community sway towards custom firmware or stick to the official ones? Sony is smartly luring PS3 owners with new features in system updates instead of waiting for custom firmware for the gaming console which might take a while.
