That is true, but you are forgetting about something. New games come with new firmware on them. So now I can't play any new games that are coming out. Even the singleplayer

nope that's PSP lol, my bf is still on a very old firmware and can play on Uncharted 2 offline:P:P He uses it as his Blu-ray player, I tell him off loads for it :P:P

No, you need the newest firmware to do most stuff. If you had the first firmware update then you wouldn't be able to use trophies. So newer games of course have to have that firmware to play them.  They are also used to release new updates for blu-ray. And if you don't update then your movies will have problems playing. 

 

And just in case you don't believe me http://playstation.about.com/b/2010/03/28/do-not-install-the-ps3-firmware-v3-21-update-if-you-want-to-keep-running-linux.htm 

So basically Sony is saying. Update or don't play anymore

 

lol does not explain how my bf can play on uncharted 2 or WKC without the newer firmware and i think most people have upgraded to the one that included the trophy update, but my bad if I'm wrong on this one, I am willing to admit I'm wrong if you can prove you cannot play games without being connected to PSN and having the latest firmware, also I do not always update straight away and I have never had any problems, I waited for the fix on the so called trophy update because it caused "issues".

Edit: I think they are talking about ps move and 3d games to be specific here, it's hard to support those games when the code is not in place right now for those features, but hopefully we shall see what happens, so it's only upcoming games you need to worry, any games you have that work will still work if you chose to keep other os, but still I hope Sony find a way around this.
