Why does everyone think a firmware update will stop the mod from working?  The wii has had a bunch of firmware updates and they get cracked within weeks.


Difference is that PSN won't work without a firmware, while Wii's Wifi will work without updating.

plus a lot of games won't work without the newest update you see.

My original xbox games wouldn't work without the firmware updates but all you had to do was run a program to patch the game and it worked just fine.  Right now, their are only a few people working on the mod, but once modding communities develop more of fanbase you'll have tons of people working of fixes to patch the latest firmware update and find ways to avoid force installs.  I don't know if it will be possible but it seems it's just a matter of time before more effective mods are developed. 

As for the PSN won't work, me and my buddies all had two consoles, one for single player that's modded, and a normal one for online play.  Again, Sony may be able to stop all future mods but history says otherwise.
