PlayStation 4's 1.51 firmware update is live

4.7
The PlayStation 4's second firmware update is live and ready to download now, and it looks to be much less significant than the Day 1 update.

According to the PS Blog it includes that old (next-gen) chestnut of improved system software stability, as well as minor touch-ups to the user interface that include "clearly indicating when a user downloads a game and a game patch at the same time."

You can really tell that they made a lot of improvements i mean the game barely came out last week.

Console Wow, Sony released that update quick. I am getting an Xbox One in a day and some odd hours but anyway I hope if there's any problem with the Xbox one launch that Microsoft will update as quick or evener quicker, I hope.


I've had black screen issues with my PS4 so I was going to run out to Best Buy at lunch and return my PS4. Maybe I'll give this firmware a try and see if it fixes anything.

BRSPosted:

So, are these updates always going to be the same size, regardless of how many changes they have. That was something I hated about the PS3, the updates were always 192 MB, even for stability fixes. I don't have good internet, so yes, 192 MB can sometimes take a while to download.

Hopefully this fixes a lot of the issues people have been having. It's a great console and I'm excited to see how people feel about their Xbox One when they get it.

This should solve the bricking and freezing issues. And damn that was pretty fast.
