System update 2.80

[blackwiggle]

I downloaded and installed the new 2.80 System update yesterday,it's one of those under the hood updates that SONY just say fixes some problems with some games, and not a compulsory update.

I've just been reading at another forum what this update did,and that was to decrease the amount of system ram that the XMB uses.

Well the game I think it has fixed is HD.

I was playing offline most of yesterday and then switched to online.

No vista pads the BR's worked and just as fast as offline.

This might be the one ,recommend you give it a go.

It increases the length of text chat from 32 to 64 chars, allows you to return to the game by pressing the PS button when the virtual keyboard is open, and removes the ability to use the Open Remote Play hack which allowed you to use Remote Play through your PC.

I'm glad the text chat characters have increased in chat,it was dumb having all that extra space with small messages.

I'm thought reentering the game and leaving the keyboard open was there before,as that's what I was doing last Avalon meet,I think,or something very close to that.

This sounds like a really good update, im going to download it now, it should be ready by Tuesday to use

Yeah I noticed thoose improvements aswell yesterday during the WWC 09 Qualifiers. The censorship in the text chat is still a little bugged (you can't type the word "con") though you're allowed to write "Jesus" now without turning up as "*****"

Oh thank ***! How many times have I wished to be able to use that word!
