Grimes said: This sounds legit as it is the same guy who unlocked the iPhone. http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/23/ps3-finally-properly-hacked/ In a post titled "Hello hypervisor, I'm geohot," hacker George Hotz (already known in the iPhone community) has made a strong claim: that he has cracked the PS3. The system has remained (mostly) uncompromised for over three years now, with a few exceptions here and there. But, this one pledges full read/write access to the entire system memory and complete control over the processor -- all without a mod chip. Has he really done it, if so how, and what comes next? That all remains to be seen. This exploit supposedly "isn't really patchable, but [Sony] can make implementations much harder," meaning he isn't tipping his hat until he's ready, because once he does the never-ending firmware update war begins, and as we've seen on the PSP, Sony can really knock out those updates. |
the only SONY news you ever post is negative news, therefore I'm not surprised. Nothing wrong with posting negative news but that's all you do
