Forums - Sony Discussion - I am sick of all these updates!

Seriously, I can't be the only one! My PS3 takes about 2x as long as my 360 or Wii does to update. It is so irritating! It takes about 2.5-3 hours to download an update around 30mb...

Is there a reason as to why it takes so much longer?

 

Seriously, the firmware and game updates need to freaking stop.

Get better internet.

My update last night took about 15 minutes, downloaded and installed.

well I don't hate it since it upgrades the console and brings in tons of new features

I do have really fast internet, I don't know how exactly to find out how fast it is, but trust me when I say I never have lag issues. It is just download speed. I know my internet is fine because my Wii60 downloads MUCH faster.



The more updates the better I say.

Also if it's slow on your ps3 just download it on you pc.

Took about 5 mins to get 3.30, 5 MB cable here.



i think your Internet connection sucks lol..




It only does everything!

 

and waiting is part of everything!

 

But Seriously my updates never take that long.



If your on a Wireless connection with your PS3 it will take longer unless you have a certain router, if you are hard wired its very fast, yesterdays update took about 2 minutes to download and install, I really wish people would get over this other OS thing, the PS3 is a gaming console/ bluray player, not a labtop, Sony was doing for the right reason, not just to be assholes,  Its not like Sonys making crap and releasing it on to the world for us to deal with, they were trying to make the network stronger from hacks.  how dare they.



for me is between 5 to 10

but I gotta is it me or every time I update my ps3 I feel like the console is gonna stop workin after the update or crash while updating

I dont know I got a 360 and a wii and they feels more like solid consoles but the ps3 I always feel that is not gonna last me long

maybe just me



Nintendo made me a gamer so I'd be stupid to ever try to forget that                                             like so many people nowadays
