Many of you might already know that the 3.21 firmware update for Sony’s PlayStation 3 disables the OtherOS functionality from the console, which effectively means that you can’t install Linux on it anymore. While hackers have been busy enabling the feature back on the console, some consumers think it’s better to file a class action lawsuit against the company, as in the case of Anthony Venture who has done just that. The lawsuit covers all PS3 consoles purchased from November 17th 2006 to March 27th 2010. The lawsuit calls for compensatory damages, restitution, injunctive relief and legal fees to be paid by Sony, and a figure of $5 million has been mentioned. Do you think it’s within Sony’s rights to remove the OtherOS functionality from the PS3 via a firmware update?

Do you find the built-in controls of the PSP clunky and hard to use? Why not hook it up to a full blown controller from a PlayStation 2? That’s what someone has done. The good news is that the hack didn’t require any hardware alternation to the PSP or the controller, rather a plug-in was used on the PSP firmware, and the controller and the PSP were hooked up via a converter (that has some technical wizardry inside it). Check out a video of it in action after the jump.

Sony’s PS3 firmware updates might be generating quite a bit of negative publicity for Sony recently, but that hasn’t stopped it from moving forward and coming up with updated firmware versions. The PlayStation Blog has officially announced that the 3.30 firmware for the PS3 will be available shortly and will be a mandatory update. There will be some improvements to the Trophies system, allowing you to brag more on the PlayStation Network, but the more fundamental thing is that the update prepares your PS3 for some upcoming new features, most notably 3D stereoscopic gaming. We’ve briefly touched on 3D gaming on the PS3 back at CEATEC before, so it’s good to see that it’s slowly making way to the living rooms.

Sony is preparing to roll out a spanking new firmware upgrade that June which will enable 3D capabilities on the PS3, albeit for titles on the PlayStation Network (PSN) only, as that does not apply to Blu-ray movies. Of course, folks who want 3D Blu-ray movies might look forward to a second firmware update later that year. Folks who pick up Sony’s HX803 will have free access to 4 remastered PSN Titles – Wipeout HD, Motorstorm Pacific Rift, PAIN and Stardust HD. Looks like the PS3 is doing its part in being future proof pretty well!

While you may not have as much details on Microsoft’s Project Natal as you might like, we have managed to dig up one of the games’ titles that should be supporting Project Natal, and that is “River Rush”. Holywood writer James Gunn managed to get some date to try out the game, and detailed his experience on his blog. As the name indicates, the game is a kind of paddling game that involves a river raft and you jumping into the air. Sounds like good exercise, and we’re certainly looking forward to getting more knowledge about Project Natal. Who do you think will be the victor in the end? The Wiimote, the PlayStation Move, or Project Natal? Hopefully it’s the consumer.
