Hello everyone I just got a PS3 and it was working fine until I choose to update it right now its stuck on system update 99% and its not completing I try to unplug the system and turn it back on it takes me right back to the system update I can't exit the screen or play any games I don't know what to do I just got this today and I didn't know that it would be stuck I hold the ps button down on the console and it doesn't even allow me to go into safe mode. Once its turned on it basically goes right to the system software and now I can't play any games or do anything.

@Ameer_13 Sometimes older consoles that haven't been updated for a while struggle when skipping through a large backlog of major updates. As somebody who doesn't take his PS3 online that often, I've had similar things happen before. As much as it might seem "frozen" on 99% I recommend you leave it to sort itself out for longer than feels right (remember to turn off your TV to avoid burn-in or ghosting) and return every hour to check. It should eventually complete the update.
