I am not sure if this is real or not but it certainly looks promising. http://www.rewritetech.com/how-to-jailbreak-playstation-3-ps3-with-usb-modchip-907/
Supposedly it's real and it's a duplicate of some piece of hardware stolen from Sony. There's videos of it in motion. The guys who have it now are trying to sell it for $150 per unit. I'm such a sucker for stuff like this I'd probably buy it (it's just over the cost of 2 games, not too bad really). For the patient types, there will be clones of it within a month of it's release for under $50 I'm betting. It's been all the talk in IRC all weekend.
I will have to be one of the patient types. It was only a matter of time before it happened but it will only be a matter of time before Sony puts safeguards into place to prevent this.
Yup...exciting times for us PS3 mateys. I'm going to hold off. Apparently the "x3 Jailbreak" is going to drop in the next week for like $40-$60 a pop. I've already disabled the internet on my system. I don't want Sony ruining my fun by forcing an update on me. I can live without PSN...especially for free games and emulators. I can't wait to play Super Mario World up-converted to 1080p.
I actually emailed those guys asking what it'll cost and this is the response I got: "Hello , We will give all information this week on the new website (around 20 to 40 usd ) "
A first it won't... But like everything else, it'll catch up to the cheaters. I think it's worth the risk.
well... Really to run unsigned code. Which allows open development on the PS3. This can me used to exploit it to play downloaded games to emulators to linux to media centers.
Okay I got that......now my question is where do you get the games from if the only downloaded games/content are from PSN, and you guys said the PSN cant be used if you jailbreak this sum bi*ch??
right like updating his facebook with pictures/videos of you being tazed............................genius indeed.
*pulls out hustler magazine* first line of defense against geeks.....take their mind off of you with something they rarely ever see........****.
im a closet geek, i host a internet radio show with a rockband microphone that gets me 10 listeners on average....i have 3rd most posts of anyone on a football message board.....and i play the **** out of my ps3 with a hot wife at home....so please look past my jock interior.....iam a uber nerd.
Lies! I met him in person. He's a jock thru and thru. He's trying to infiltrate our ranks. All he plays is Madden. That hardly counts as gaming. Don't let your guard down around him
Speaking of ****.... Whatchu doin this weekend ??? Wanna go see some ****?? I hear Tootsies is great this time of year
Dammit. I'm out of town in Ft. Myers this weekend. Stupid family. I think we just turned this into the 'I Hate my single friends' thread.
Either I've become less trashy, or that place has completely gone to hell. I remember when that place was loaded with cute Jewish girls. Now it looks like a Paul Wall video.
yeah so Southern Jewish girls without ridiculous accents HK.....?? In any event they all have deep pockets I would assume....
South Florida isn't Southern. When I first moved here, people made fun of me for my southern twang (which Mor can probably attest, I have little to none, if any accent)
I know I can but I'd much rather use my PS3 controller then the crap gamepad I have for my pc. Awesome...better price then I heard. I actually saw the message on their site asking for reviewers. Since I run a small gaming site I emailed them asking for a sample unit to review and they said they'd get one out to me. Hopefully it's legit.
so any legit game disc you put in there, you can copy to the HDD and play it anytime without the correct disc, as long as you have any legit disc in the drive? is this all easier and more rewarding then just finding some way to download them and play them on a PC?
There's a new app called Open Manager that allows full skinning and no need for a game in the drive. They're making new stuff every day literally. This scene wil be bigger than the 360 scene in about 2 months lol. It'll even auto split this huge 4GB compressed files that are causing problems on FAT drives and dump fluff files Sony likes to add to 1st party games to make Blu Ray seem necessary.
