PS3 Update 3.42 Now Available For Download: Sony Kills PSJailbreak

We were expecting a PS3 firmware update, however, we weren’t expecting the PS3 Update 3.42 because Sony should have released an update to bring 3D support to the oh-so-popular gaming console. The PS3 firmware update 3.42 is a mandatory update meaning that if you don’t install it then you won’t be able to login into your PSN account or purchase something at the PlayStation Store.

Sony hasn’t published the PS3 update 3.42 changelog, however, some folks in Japan are saying that this is a patch to fix an important hardware security issue. Everything is clear now thanks to these words as Sony is looking to kill the PSJailbreak PS3 USB Mod Chip released last week. So if you used that USB from Australia or your Nokia N900 / Palm Pre to jailbreak your PS3 then you will have to say goodbye to this as you won’t be able to access the PSN.

Though choice, huh? Well, I’m sure someone will jailbreak the PS3 once again. You’ll just have to wait and see.
