I'm not sure if this will help with game updates, but this should keep your firmware up-to-date.

Thanks.  

I am currently in Japan and I have been unable to get updates for my games. I am able to update the system software but not he games. When I try do download the game updates it gets patially through the update, times out, and then gives a dns error.

So can game updates be downloaded on a PC and then installed via cd/dvd or usb flash drive?

I know the system software can be updated this way but I have not been able to get this done for my games.

Thanks

I am currently undergoing the same problem!   All i want to do is play my games online! but i cant because everytime i go to update them, it says it'll take like 2500min and then it'll go to like 2% and then it gets an error.  

can anyone who knows hwo to update cames thru CD or memory stick please help us!!!  
thank you

To UPDATE PS3 through a cd/dvd, you're gonna need a cd/dvd disc, cd/dvd burner and a software for burning stuff(ex. Nero , My DVD Plus etc.).

1. Download PS3 Update from this website
and save it somewhere in your "My Documents".

2. Open your burning software, find a button with the word "DATA" or "DATA DISC" on it and press
it.

3. Make a folder that is called "PS3"[note: write all the letters in uppercase for the Ps3 is kind of
sensitive XD and the update might not work] . If your burning software doesnt have the button
with the word "folder" on it, try right clicking somewhere on the box where you put the files.

Note. If your software can't do all the stuff on step 3, I suggest you download a new burning
software. BTW: I use "MY DVD PLUS" software to burn the ps3 update XD

4. After you've created the "PS3" folder, double click on it and create a new folder called " UPDATE".
It should be like this

5.After you've created the "UPDATE" folder, double click on it and put the "ps3 update file".
It should look like this
Ex. PS3 > UPDATE > PS3UPDAT.PUP(its the ps3 update file called)

Bad Ex. PS3 > UPDATE
> PS3UPDAT.PUP

Bad Ex. PS3
UPDATE
PS3UPDAT.PUP

6. FINAL STEP: Click "BURN" button ^^

PEople I suggest you use a ReWritable CD/Dvd disc for burning in case you made a mistake
and the disc must be supported by your PS3 Console.

Still looking for a way to do game updates though is that process just for firmware updates?

well can't help you with the blogs on the other hand playstation has a very dedicated staff i know this cause my friend use to work for the i would call them and ask if you can do so because they know alot more about there systems then i do
