Contrary to what some self righteous people may tell you, all hacks are about playng pirated games. And a hack that gets pirates into the system proper will basically mean custom firmware that will allow features and apps that sony doesn't support. Basically you would be able to play almost any game as long as you are wiling to not carry your console online.
Problem with hacks like these though is that they never last. Everytime you see a "stability update" they would be fixed. Which in turn limits the amount fo people that really ever has them. Actually in this dy and age and with the only wy to play online being a paid service, teher is very little gain in hacking a console.
