Games that you SHOULD NOT update

[sketchdesigner]

Right, basically I've been looking around for a list of games that work on 3.55 cfw
(yes, i know there's loads of those.... wait for the rest....)
that shouldnt have worked either due to fw requirements >3.56 or patched files etc
(...there you go)

lets say for example LA Noire which will stop working if you update them to a version beyond the first one

I'd like (and sure some other people would find it useful) to have a short list beside my tv of games that my housemates shouldnt update so that i dont have to re-rip / re-patch / delete game data everytime i go to use the ps3

I couldnt find a list that was either updated to say more than one or two games or in fact didnt just say 'portal wont work' so figured I'd post this and if nobody can help me then at least attempt to compile my own based on the games I have
I dont mind updating this all the time but please feel free to indeed help as I dont have that many games so there's bound to be some I would never know about

so in short, these are the ones I know of that cause issues and was looking for a similar kind of list but obviously more extensive
If any are wrong please let me know - this is just so people get the idea... if people can help me then I will tidy it up and use more information so please provide which update is the one causing the problem and what you did to fix it (even if it was just a delete game data fix)
I'm not going to provide links as all the fixes and earlier updates are easy to find even just using google

delete game data - reinstall update 1.01 manually
BulletStorm

Brink - dont update past 1.01
Gran Turismo 5 - dont update past 1.09
LA Noire - dont update past 1.01
Mortal Kombat 9 - dont update to 1.03
Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade - only use first update so far (dont think there's been another one)
WWE Allstars - dont update after patching files

if i'm not mistaken you can add killzone 3 to the list.

Call of Duty Black Ops - 1.10 = 3.60 as far as I can remember (not sure though)

Little big planet 2

My son started to update it not knowing what he was doing. I cancelled it, but now when I start it up it says I have to update to 3.60.

delete update data? why re-rip?

[sketchdesigner]

delete update data? why re-rip?

cant remember what game it was but updated a game myself that naffed up some files that a data delete wouldnt fix, I think it was more probable that it broke the initial patch to be honest (really not sure) but re-ripped, patched over again then only downloaded the first update to get it back working.
granted I may not have had to re-rip but thats sort of what I meant (in any case it can be a lot of hassle whatever you have to do)

1.05 I'm guessing?
heard a few people had issues with that but not got the game so didnt know
i'm also going to try to add fixes for the unlucky people that do accidentally update their games (and if I can keep this thread open of course) if a delete game data doesnt work so let me know if you get any where with that first

+1...for everyone's reference

socom 4 can only go to 1.02
you can find 1.03 in the modding forum for mortal kombat
and i'm pretty sure you can only update transformers once if theres other updates for it
