It's that time again, firmware update time. The huge one is finally here: 2.40. So, without a doubt, we're sure you're all very anxious to go grab it already. Five bucks says most of you didn't even bother to read what is being written here and just saw the headline and ran off on us. We don't blame you. With that, we'll keep it short and enjoy our new firmware features.

[Thanks Tim P., and everyone who sent this in!]

Update: Super Stardust HD patch is live. The 255MB download will add trophies to your game.

Is the one on the PSN site 2.40? The image still says 2.36, but it's been out of date in the past.

But the names are so different... and beside it, do you see faintly the Gran Turismo symbol... what are all the other faded symbols... hmmmm can anyone see??

Paul (PSN: heypaul) said...

Those are just mock ups of trophies for games that don't exist. When was the last time you heard of games with names as generic as Super Wheels or Travel the Solar System on anything other than your TI-83?

The trophies list is accessed from the games column, so those faint symbols you're seeing are just other objects in the games column. Specifically, it's GT: Prologue, some game I haven't seen, the Uncharted demo, and Flow. Have nothing to do with the trophies.

Grr... I was looking all over for a game called "Travel the Solar System" too.
