How to turn PS3 off while in-game with firmware 2.4+
Quite a lot of users have emailed in asking how they can turn off their Playstation 3 while in-game. Firmware 2.4 added in-game Cross Media Bar and when you press the PS button it brings up the XMB. I’ll answer the question in this post so its a bit more wide spread.
To turn the system off while in-game simply keep your finger on the PS button and it will bring the old menu up with the quit, controller options, turn off system, and turn off controller.
So, press the PS button to bring the XMB up, press and hold the PS button to bring the old menu up. Simple.
I hope this helps some of you out there.
