actually I just saw the 2nd video.. it isn't a debug unit.. and the austrailian mod retailer which is very reliable is selling the usb now.. looks like it may be legit..
apparently it works on 3.41 and on PSN..
$169.99 is the price, but It wouldn't suprise me if sony releases a new firmware within the next 48 hours.. they killed linux rapidly when geohot released his hacking video..

oh so after all this you saw the video
leo-j you really have to first look at things and judge them properly and then post

so a random guy posts a video on the internet claiming he hacks it, and the entire gaming community claims it official and is happy..
its fake, they used a DEBUG old ps3 model which is running linux to use the USB pirate.. it's an obvious scam, if it could work on all ps3's they wouldn't have used a debug ps3.

It's not fake.
I'm sorry this is hard for you to accept.
1. It's not a random guy, its a guy from a pretty big and respected modding community.
2. They are testing the USB software hack that was developed on another pirating site.
3. It works on both fat and slim with the latest updates installed.
4. It loaded straight to the XMB to run the hack, not into Linux or anywhere else. The hack then runs off of the software on the USB, not linux or anything else on the PS3.
I'm sure there will be a video of a PS3 slim using the hack soon, to ease your concerns.

oh yes show your support and happiness that the ps3 is finally hacked! Lets throw a party..
1. This is HORRIBLE for the gaming industry, unless you live under a rock you know the PS2 which is hacked non stop now has barely ANY software sales.. but of course it is a last gen system so it's expected? The psp is having trouble.. and it's basically a dying platform when it comes to software sales.. and you support this?
2. According to who is he a very well known guy from a mod community?
3. Accoridng to who does this run on a ps3 slim?
4. According to who is this not a debug unit? Because running things off a USB is ALLOWED on a debug unit, AND ACCORIDNG TO SONY and my sources YOU CANNOT GET INTO DEBUG MODE off retail ps3 units.
SO IDK what you people are trying to spin here, but this is an obvious FAKE.
The only way this would work is if he got a kit from a dev and manually installed the software into the ps3 for it to run debug.
We'll see..

Read the news article on this site, as well as arstechnica and other places. It answers all of your doubts.
Trust me, this isn't fake and it isn't a debug unit as someone else posted pictures of the different housing a debug unit has.
And i'm not saying I support this, I'm just saying your unwillingness to accept it is a little silly.
|
I hadn't seen the secound video, and saying I shouldn't accept this is silly is futile, since the console hasn't been hacked for 4 years giving me the impression its almost in hackable..
so It wouldn't be easy for me to believe this..

but you should atleast look at what there
