Sony ups PlayStation 3 firmware to v1.7, PSOne titles not faring so well

Filed under:

Another PlayStation 3 firmware update, another list of issues. Unfortunately, this seems to be somewhat of a recurring theme, and while users may not have found issues with last month’s refresh, the v1.7 isn’t as kind. Reportedly, the latest update enables the PS3 “to play PSOne titles that are already saved on your PSP,” but numerous sources are suggesting that the feature, um, doesn’t work. On a lighter note, PSOne and PS2 dual shock controllers will now shake, rattle, ‘n rumble when connected to your PS3, and those with PSPs sitting around can also hit up v3.4 (required for the PSP-to-PS3 playback) on their handheld machine. So, dearest readers, we’ll point the question at you: is your recently update PS3 playing nice with those PSOne selections?
