PS3 can not play computer games so just download them on the computer
a new PS3 update is released every month or so, and you are unable to go to online games or the PlayStation Store until you download and install said update.
Updates and patches are downloaded from the PlayStation network. The PS3 system will automatically update when a new version comes out. Game patches will download when you launch the game, if you have PlayStation Plus your PS3 can be set to automaticly check for patches for games you own and download them in the background.
