Mvp4eVa on 29 March 2010

He still have to update to 3.21 firmware regardless, thats if he wants to play 3D gaming with next firmware..

No Sony messed up. They over reacted and know have given an excuse to the hacker community to crack there system to run Linux on there machine. You can try and blow that off but hackers try to run linux on everything(they just loaded linux on the N900). Fromt here you get the Homebrew community because of the ability of running unsigned code.

This guys exploit that they are patching was very complicated and risky it involved opening up the console and it didn't even run games. perhaps it could of been simpler but now because of Sony's reaction I can guarantee you will be able to run ISOs on your PS3 slim in 6 months.

 

Oh well.

He's going to have to update if he wants to play future games anyways.

How is it illegal? He's using an exploit on his own system. If he used that exploit to his advantage on other people's systems, then yes it would be illegal.

It would be the same if you hacked your own PC.

I wonder if it blends .. and I don't mean the iPhone, because that was tested before. ;)

if or when ps3 gets hacked ill still buy all my games , when you get older you realize you actually do make a difference in the world and exploiting things for your own selfish desires thinking your only one person is flawed and downright delusional.

support the things you like in life , look whats happening to the pc do you really want that to happen to consoles now .
