The PlayStation 3 (often abbreviated PS3) is the third home video game console created and released by Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.
What was the new update for?
Unfortunately Sony rarely see a need to inform us what we are getting for our agreement. If the download was not so large I'd not be surprised if they simply did it to force people to accept a new EULA.
Stability again, presumably. Firmware can effect all aspects of games, perhaps 2.42 broke some obscure title, or perhaps they made some OS optimisations to free more resources for in game XMB.
Perhaps it finally does shit kittens!

The update will cause your PS3 to explode and rain fiery death in exactly 7 days after the update has been downloaded.
For the love of god, please get out now... Run!
System stability for PS and PS3 titles is what I heard, I do not mind these small updates. They are probably fixing something.
"what a waste of time. These updates which do nothing are starting to really piss me offComments like this piss me off... If the damn update didn't do anything, then Sony wouldn't freaking put the time in to make it... It obviously does some sort of optimization that was needed...

"Common sense is something that lacks in many gamers minds, no offense to anyone.Which is why we must mold the young ones with our sarcastic comebacks.

"Sentry nailed it. It's probably Life with Playstation, and it'll probably go live after the PSN down time tomorrow.
"
Hope so, I still think it will come this August instead, but with them being confident enough to even talk about it at E3 and say the date is later in July, well that makes me think they are staying hush for a secret release like they always do.
