  Wow, that sucks. The only problem I've encountered is a freezing issue when trying to look a some friend's profiles. I have to shut off the PS3 from the back to get it working again. Guess I'll steer clear of that until a new update is released.

  Shit, now I'm scared to turn mine on. It froze earlier and I haven't bothered booting it up since.

  Holy shit I'm glad I wasn't home to download this yet!!! That's a bullshit work-around to totally reformat and lose everything! I feel for those who are experiencing this and I hope it gets fixed quickly for their sake!!!

  Ahh.
  
  I just turned my PS3 on to watch Saw IV (Blu Ray edition ) and was surprised I didn't have a download.

  I haven't turned my PS3 back on. So if I've apparently got the "bad" version of 2.40, should I leave it off? I never had issues with it to begin with, but should I remain careful?

  These are individual cases, obviously, my cousin's PS3 already installed it and it's still running smooth.

    This could happen to any company adding a feature to over 12 million consoles, some are bound to inadvertantly install wrong causing issues, Microsoft has had the same issues at times with their firmwares.

        It's also called flamebait and it's not allowed...

        How's it flamebait? This isn't the first time something like this has happened to Sony.

        If he had said "Goddamn Sony, for the love of God, get your act together. That's why I love 360 this never happens with them." or something to that effect it's a perfectly reasonable response.
        
        Just saying "Oh Microsoft did this too." without provocation is flamebait. Nobody brought it up. Just because Microsoft has, in fact, had an issue like this. Doesn't mean that Sony can do it too. It's a mistake, it's justified to be annoyed.

      When has anyone heard of an xbox bricking from faulty firmwire? I haven't.

        No, they just brick because a fair percentage of them are faulty.

        RROD RITE, AMEER?
        
        I love how every time Sony balls something up the PS3 fanboys respond with "But, but, but, RROD LOLOLOLOL"

        Well really, that's a pretty simple thing to call out, no? Hard to brush that under the rug when it's pretty out there. No one's saying "BUT, RROD LOL", they're using it as a response to 360 fanboys who come in and say "OH GG SONY WAY TO *bleep* UP".

        So is that some sort of preemptive strike?

        So, laughing at a mega-corporation *bleep*ing up people's machines isn't allowed? I laughed when Sony's laptops started exploding from faulty batteries too (considering too, that I still own a Sony Vaio laptop from the same year as the faulty ones).
        
        If MS had done the same thing I would have laughed. I laughed when they said that the failure rate on 360s was around 2%, when it was more like 30-40%.
