Sony has released Firmware Update 3.56 which included no usage to PlayStation 3 owners other than to effectively stop jailbroken PS3’s from accessing the PlayStation Network.  The security patch is likely the first in a long line of patches that Sony will need issue to combat the recent compromise of security on the platform.  A brighter note for PS3 players that have been experiencing rampant cheating in online games like Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 this should give you a much needed reprieve from modders.
It is rumored that the firmware keys, whatever that means have already been decrypted and new Custom Firmware being developed for the modding scene. Â Now if people would only control themselves and not find it absolutely mandatory to go and ruin everyone’s experience on the console they might not have responded so quickly. Â Nevertheless, piracy sucks. Â So does cheating, so hopefully Sony remains vigilant in either banning consoles from the PlayStation Network similar to what Microsoft did or constantly updates the firmware. Â I don’t mind one bit.
