 Send to email | Rumor: PS3 firmware 2.5 to include screen grab function in firmware-2.5rumorsony |  By Randy Nelson
el 27-Aug-2008 | Filed under: Sony PlayStation 3
Foto 0 en Rumor: PS3 firmware 2.5 to include screen grab function: Paste this image in your site, Myspace, Facebook, Ebay copy this code...
It's not remarkably wow-worthy, but CVG reports that its "development sources" have dished up dirt on a new screenshot feature planned for version 2.5 of the PS3 firmware. We have no reason to doubt this rumor, since CVG's sources previously broke the news that StarCraft 2 was going to be an MMO. Uh...
The purpose of this feature is presumably for folks to take pictures of error messages for customer service their in-game exploits to share with friends. Of course, we can speculate on how it will work. Most likely, it will involve a combination of button presses on the controller, since bringing up the in-game XMB would ... probably result in a screen grab of the in-game XMB.
This functionality could be a boon for those of us who write about games for a living and would really like to be able to take our own screenshots of PS3 games in HD. Xbox 360 debugs have offered this since day one - via a networked PC, no less - and we've been on Sony for a similar solution for eons. Unfortunately, PS3 debugs have different firmware than retail units, so our dream scenario may be limited only to finished retail games.
(Fun fact: Pressing the Lock and Home buttons on your iPhone simultaneously will take a grab of whatever is on screen and save it to your Camera Roll. Fun!)
