Details PS3 firmware 2.0 gelekt?

De PlayStation-site heeft er geen informatie over, maar een gebruiker op het PlayStation-forum wist de details van firmware 2.0 voor de PS3 te melden. Deze user heeft in het verleden ook voor de officiële aankondiging firmware-details gepost die later waar bleken, dus de bron is redelijk betrouwbaar. Zolang het niet door Sony zelf bevestigd is, beschouwen we het echter als gerucht.

Hieronder vind je terug wat firmware 2.0 voor je PS3 gaat betekenen volgens de user in kwestie:
