Many people were thrilled to see the operating system shown at TGS this year running on the PS3, but it has been confirmed that it will not be OS that will be shipped with the console. According to a statement made by Sony to GameDaily.BIZ, the OS shown at TGS was not final, and will be updated and changed to best suit the players, even after launch.
As of now, it is possible that the operating system is still in the works, however, we have been told that this should in no way affect production- the PS3 is still on track for a November launch in Japan and North America.
Sony has announced that there will be updates for the OS, to add new features and fix any problems with existing features, and that these updates will be available through downloads straight to the console, or downloading the updates to a blu-ray disc or memory stick and inserting them.
All in all, Sony's operating system is beginning to sound like the Xbox 360 dashboard, so expect great things. As soon as us here at PS3Land.com get our hands on a PS3 console, we will make a video walkthrough of the OS and go in depth of it's features, so stay tuned!
