Sony PS3 Firmware Update 3.21 Will Not Include “Install Other OS” Feature

Sony has announced that older PlayStation 3 consoles will be losing one of their features after a PS3 firmware update goes live this Thursday.

Sony will be launching their latest firmware update called PS3 firmware 3.21 this week which will not include the feature that allows the ability to “Install Other OS”.

As a result of this news, Sony may leave a few Linux users disgruntled about the prospect that the console will not allow them to play back Blu-ray or software titles which need 3.21 or later, however Sony’s justification to the removing of this feature is due to the security concerns.

What do you think of Sony disabling this feature in their new firmware update? Are you one of the people affected by Sony’s move? Please leave a comment and let us know what you think…
