Wow, I didn't realize so many Xbox 360 games were pirated. I did a quick search and it looks like the PS3 is cracked and can run pirated games now.

I know the original Xbox was hacked and modded - people would put a big hard drive with many, many games inside. And I know a cop's kid that used to sell PS1 games that he copied a long time ago.

Can anyone confirm the PS3 can run Pirated games too?

Of course it can, all you need is an external harddrive and a softmod to the ps3 and you can run every game under the sun on it and hack yourself trophies from games you don't own as well. the Ps3 has been hacked to play full retail games for over 2 years now.

Yes BUT, how easy is it to hack a PS3 ?

I've heard you have to downgrade the firmware and crap like that. I mean accessibility is also an issue. Maybe lots of people don't know how to hack their PS3s

you can literally buy a usb stick which hacks the console for you completely online for about 10euros actually some sites offer the software on the usb stick just to put on a removable drive and put in your console. Update it via the net put the games onto a usb harddrive and play them?. You think that is harder than checking the drive manufacture number of your 360 to see if it is even possible for it's drive to play copies, often take the harddrive out of it's holder to connect it to the PC to drop files onto and then go off and get dual layer dvds to burn off most of the games since they're all too big to fit on standard cheap dvds. Really don't wanna explain more how it's done and linking to Piracy software/hardware on here isn't allowed, but trust me if you wanna hack a ps3 all you need is hacking tools such as.... google :D
