you can't but your ps3 might but you can get virus by having sex
As of now, no you cannot get a virus. But as time goes on and tinkerers tinker. one day it could be possible. but sony would just release an update to fix the problem and the virus if one is ever created

and to SweetCyn you talk like you think you know how computers and viruses work, well next time do a little research about how your desktop PC is vastly different from a playstation 3
Yes you can and dont let anyone else tell you otherwise,too much money to risk online. I have all major systems working in perfect condition and i will never go online with my money like that. Just like a computer can pick up viruses online so can your system,the big difference is most computers have anti-virus protection of some sort and your system will be naked to all those things..........why do you think alot of systems have crashed? Its your choice to believe or not to believe? TO NAXA: you talk like you know what your saying,LSR...I have many systems and alot of gaming experience,including online YOUR SYSTEM WILL EVENTUALLY CRASH IF YOU CONTINUE ONLINE USE,maybe not necessarily a virus(but that was just a point i was trying to make) IDO KNOW WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT!!!
Nope. No way, ur friend is a douche.
Don't trust him, hes an idiot
