Rumor: PS3 firmware 2.70 “definitely” coming this week
Yeah, I know that the words “rumor” and “definitely” are usually mutually exclusive of each other, but I’m just quoting a “prominent PS3 developer” who, according to VG247, said that firmware 2.70 will go live this week. Details after the jump.

The unnamed developer made the assertion during GDC. The dev also said that developers got the update yesterday. The update also supposedly went live for a brief time, and our tipster NarooN tells us that some lucky PS3 owner managed to download about 80% of the update before Sony pulled it out.
This is also (sort of) corroborated by the new Resistance 2 patch that’s going live tomorrow. That particular patch will let a second local player to log in using his own PSN profile and save his progress.
Insomniac devs have stated before that this needed a firmware feature not available during the game’s launch, so the fact that they’ve already managed to implement it further strengthens rumors about the new firmware update. Keep checking back here for more news.
Thanks to NarooN for the tip!
