Sony is not going to be happy about this. According to the product name, PSJailBreak, they have created a USB key that allows users to copy games their PS3 games their hard drive then play the game. Anyone want to go to blockbuster and rent some games? If this is true and works correctly, this is what the PS3 scene has been waiting for. And unlike Xbox 360 modding, no screwdrivers are required for this to work.
PSJailbreak claims to work on all PS3 models and can be updated to work with future PS3 firmware releases. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see if any of this is true.
Just when Microsoft though they could beat the Xbox 360 modding scene, C4Eva strikes back with a proof of concept video showing his Xbox 360 Slim running a backup. What does this mean? We’ll, this means we’re all pretty close to being able to run backups on the new Xbox Slim in no time folks.
What allows the Xbox 360 Slim to run backups? The ability to run backups is through flashing the DVD drive with custom firmware, known as LT Lite Touch Firmware. This will allow users out there to either make legal backups of their games or to download backups.
So as you may already know, Geo took everyone by suprise when he started working on hacking/exploiting the PS3. Some would say he was pretty sucesful, in what he accomplished. Being able to gain control over the Isolated PPE’s, etc, no easy job. But if you head over to his blog, you’ll notice that it’s been quiet for some time now, well, expcept for the mass spam comments. But what I wan’t to ask, what happend?
Why did Geo just fall off the face of the earth, in regards to the PS3. He never posted an update or anything. Honestly, I know he’s a talented kid, but excuse me for saying this, just a little pussy when things got hot. He defiantly got his fare share of hate comments on his blog, but seriously, cmon Geo, Man up. Don’t run off like a little bitch, if you can’t figure it out, just say it. You’ll gain more respect that way.
Team Jungle has just tweeted that the Xbox 360 firmware for the Samsung drives, is now complete. This is great news folks. I don’t know if they will even attempt to update the hitachi firmware to LT Lite Touch, I guess only time will tell.
