Will Sony Be Able To Fix All Problems That Occur In All PS3's before The First Day Of 2009?

Question

I can be patient not to buy any PS3'S whether its 40,60 or 80 this August Up to December 31 but is it possible for Sony to fix the bugs and all of of the problems before 2009?

-Are there still any chances that the GTA 4 will be immune from all of the problems thats appearing right now before 2009?

Answer 1

I'm not sure to what problems you are referring...  There is an issue with firmware update 2.4 but if it downloads and installs it works fine.  Otherwise it just won't install.  Regardless, sony has pulled it so you won't run into a problem anyway.  There are some backwards compatibility issues but they are with only a handful of games.

I've had my PS3 since this past Thanksgiving (an 80 gig) and I've never had a problem.  I use it a crazy lot of hours for gaming, I have used the online store quite a bit, and use it to play dvd and blu ray movies.  I have used the web browser but not very much.

I've not had any problems at all.  I also have GTA 4 and have not had any problems with it.  I don't think the system has many common problems.  Certainly nothing like the 360's 33% failure rate it had for awhile.  I think you're worried for nothing.
