"CVG has learnt that Sony's next firmware update for PlayStation 3 will include an option for screen grabbing, allowing you to take your own shots of what you get up to on your PS3.

A development source has told CVG that PS3 firmware update 2.5 is rumoured to have screen grabbing built in."

This would be pretty sweet, being able to take your own screenshots. Could be interesting to hang in your Home appartment

that will be great then i can spam this site with ps3 pictures as evidence to prove it has the best graphics around.

^^Hehe, me too!

That is freaking cool.

this will be a great feature for reviewers.

Would that work for any game and such?

It would be awesome for a game like Bad Company because there have been some crazy moments I want to save. Battlefield 2 had a recorder, why doesn't Bad Company :(

why do sony need this are they worried that their superior system is failing... oh wait..

What are you talking about? What does a firmware feature have to do with 'their superior system failing'? You do know the PS3 gets frequent firmware updates adding new features, yes? Or are you just looking to troll?

The last clearly being the case, why am I even bothering replying to you?

...

Doh!

...

Anyway, on topic: sweet!

:D

whats next? a FRAPS like video capture?
That would be sweet too

I hope this is true since it would be a great feature for using when you are making a walk through, wanting to show your friend something you did - hell you could even use it to give developers a better understanding of bugs in the game which might of made it into the retail version.
