PS3 fail0verflow

[maxy]

USB Jigkick thing is real...apparently it puts any PS3 into debug mode,allowing it to run unsigned code

The main features

- USB dongle, easy to plug, no need to open the PS3
- Easy to install, with a smooth GUI
- Can be used on all PS3 : Fat, Slim, US, EU, JP ...
- Disable Sony updates, prevent from bricks
- Support for all PS3 type of games (not BD movies, DVD, and other consoles)
- Direct copy from game to HDD, or USB HDD
- Homebrews support
- Easy to update via PC

No ps3 for maxy of course,not enough good games 

But it's very amusing to see some big Sony fans sweating...oh no this will ruin PS3,oh yes this will boost PS3 hardware but software will go down the drain,Sony should sue everyone,brick every hacked console,oh homebrew possibility is endless

Some people in piracy heaven countries are like...oh i will still buy PS3 games,Sony needs our support...and yet the first thing that those people bought for their $800 launch PS3 was 200 GB HDD

It will be very interesting to see what impact it will have on PS3 since this hack comes pretty late in PS3 lifecycle...other consoles have been hacked within few weeks after release

The big question is:
What percentage of the existing userbase will turn evil?

[iconoclast]

I'll take 10.

[T-Short]

Now when they say copy games to the HDD, do you still need the disc to play?

If I understand correctly, you need A disc to play. Seems to be happy with any original game in there.

[maxy]

If it doesn't require a mod chip, this could become quite popular.

Now when they say copy games to the HDD, do you still need the disc to play?

No mod chip,only that usb stick.Yes you need the disc,but it can be any game...as long as some game is in the blu-ray drive you are good to go.

[demi]

It runs like Daemon Tools. It makes a virtual BD Drive, but you need a retail disc in there. As of now there's also no way to dump games to your hard drive from downloaded games, so you have to rent and rip.

I wouldn't pay $100+ for this, wait a while for people to start breaking it apart and getting things working.

[pilonv1]

Since the only thing it copies are PS3 games, and PS3 games are region free, isn't this useless?

[T-Short]

Since the only thing it copies are PS3 games, and PS3 games are region free, isn't this useless?

it also allows unsigned code to be run. NOT USELESS. also, i'm sure there's going to be a way to run downloaded BD dumps as well.

[Mupepe]

welp i'll definitely be getting this

[maxy]

I'm sure that someone nice will write some PC ripping,downloading app

There is also one other thing,external drive is FAT32...single files larger than 4GB are no no
But apparently not many PS3 games have files like that so no problem...manager is copying individual files not making ISO

Also people are working on NTFS support

[brob]

full ps1 library/psp emulator would be great.

[Himu]

PS2 FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

[cool breeze]

why do people keep talking about playing PSP games on the PS3? did they find a PSP emulator already on the PS3 like how they found a PS1 emulator on the PSP or something? I know the PS3 can play PSP minis, so maybe that's it.  I've seen people talking about it on gaf too.

what about homebrew or non-PS3 backups on it? all I'm seeing now is a way to play PS3 back ups and that isn't interesting.

[brob]

Without any knowledge in the field; wouldn't a PS2 emulator be too heavy for the PS3 unless it has the chipset the early models had?

regarding the PSP emu; I just really don't like the PSP hardware. Feels like wet poop in my hands. I do have a  Go though, isn't there some way of blutoothing it or something so I can play it on a tv with a PS3 controller?

[cool breeze]

yeah, actually.  the psp go even lets you connect and use a PS3 controller through bluetooth.

[Himu]

Apparently there is a ful functioning psp emulator on ps3.

[brob]

yeah, actually.  the psp go even lets you connect and use a PS3 controller through bluetooth.

but you need a ps3 right? Or can I hook it up via some video cable and bluetooth the controller to it? Cus my PS3 is on the fritz. :\

[cool breeze]

you only need a PS3 if you want to play Resistance Retribution using a dual analog setup with rumble.  That's an entirely different clusterfuck that involves Resistance 2 to be playing in your PS3, Resistance on your PSP, a usb connected between your PSP to your PS3, etc.  That all can be done on the 2000/3000.  For the Go all you need is a PS3 controller and it can connect through bluetooth.  For TV Out, the component cables Sony sells will put it on your TV, but it won't be full screen and the resolution will be out of whack.  There are scalers you can buy that will blow the picture up and improved the image quality a bit.  There is also remotejoy on PC that lets you play it on full screen and use any controller you want.  I'm not too familiar with that anymore.

Apparently there is a ful functioning psp emulator on ps3.

ok, that's what I was wondering.

I'd get it for that.

[bork]

What are these?

[Third]

Will buy when there's a better version available. 

[bork]

Will buy when there's a better version available. 

Yeah, holy shit:

Also be aware that once PS3 is Jailbroken, dongle cannot be removed or hack un-installed.

No thanks.

[cool breeze]

What are these?

lkv7000 (vga) and lkv8000 (hdmi, can be used with PSP Go).  I posted a bit about it in the wdyb thread.  It blows up the games and smooths them similarly to how the PS3 smooths out PS2 games.  It won't magically make PSP games look perfect and it is still blurry, but it is one of the better solutions for playing PSP on TV and it doesn't require a hacked PSP (again, I'm not familiar with remotejoy anymore).  Only minor problems are that it crops the top and bottom of the screen a tiny bit and the minor (one to two frame) input lag similar to the PS3 when  upscaling PS2 games.  though, from what I understand, the XRGB3 is supposed to be the best solution.  the lenkeng ones are just much cheaper (and more limited) solutions specifically for the PSP.

[brob]

my psp go has the latest firmware

I guess that's out of the picture then...

[Diunx]

Looks like once I have my ps3 the only game I'm gonna be buying is MGS4

[Mr. Gundam]

The only thing that any kind of mod would tempt me with is the ability to play all of my Japanese PS2 games on the PS3. But since that probably won't happen, I'll stay away and hang onto my Japanese PS2 slim.

[Tieno]

Looks like the PS3 has some great games...

[T-Short]

what about homebrew or non-PS3 backups on it? all I'm seeing now is a way to play PS3 back ups and that isn't interesting.

as mentioned above and in the OP, yes, it allows unsigned code to be run. hello homebrew

[pilonv1]

Since the only thing it copies are PS3 games, and PS3 games are region free, isn't this useless?

it also allows unsigned code to be run. NOT USELESS. also, i'm sure there's going to be a way to run downloaded BD dumps as well.

Sorry I meant "currently useless". The ability to run unsigned code is promising.

[Wario64]

cant wait to download GT5 

[Sho Nuff]

All I want is region free for older games so I can play any Playstation game on my PS3, period

[cool breeze]

^
that would be another big thing for me.

my fat old PS2 is practically broken and that was the one I played imports on.  I was too lazy to figure out a way to play them on my slim ps2 and since then the only ways I could play imports was through the PC emulator or at a friends house.

what about homebrew or non-PS3 backups on it? all I'm seeing now is a way to play PS3 back ups and that isn't interesting.

as mentioned above and in the OP, yes, it allows unsigned code to be run. hello homebrew

That's good.  If it becomes like the Xbox 1 with all that stuff, the PS3 could end up being pretty awesome.

[bork]

If this were to work well, and you can play PS1/PS2 games from any region plus homebrew, I'd happily unplug my PS3 from the internet and use it as a dedicated homebrew box, then pick up a slim PS3 for regular gaming.

[pilonv1]

OG Xbox softmod is ridiculously easy to do. I think I did mine with Mechwarrior.

done

[Beezy]

Summary of what's in those 43 mins of vids? Is it possible to hack PS3s and still access shitty ass PSN now?

[pilonv1]

I think the best thing is that the random number is the same every time. So it's more like a public key than a private key.

Anyway if this leads to region free PS1/PS2 playback I'll kiss my PS3

[cool breeze]

depending on how things go, I might pick up a cheap slim ps3.

the really annoying thing that people brought up is how easy it will be to hack in online games now...but I don't really play ps3 games online, so, whatever.

also, someone in the gaf thread posted a fan translation video of the tales of graces demo:
[youtube=560,345]zEB98GnFKs8[/youtube]

didn't know you could do that stuff

[The Sceneman]

ps3 emulation on PSP sonay am gods

[T-Short]

Hehe. Very nice videos. I guess someone just has to break the per-console key and the apploader public key, and then you could burn selfbooting discs a la Dreamcast.

[The Sceneman]

Dreamcast

[magus]

you know ultimately i picked a 360 rather than a ps3 because it was a cheaper alternative since jailbreak dongle were already avaiable but my brain still feels like it missed the pirate boat

[Eel O'Brian]

speaking of PS3 fail, mine has been freezing noticeably as of late, and sounds like a space shuttle launching when it gets warm, i think it's starting the death rattle

it's a 60GB BC unit, i hear they just swap you out a refurbished slim for those nowadays, i'm prepared to bring out some major sony hate when mine eventually kicks it and i have to accept an inferior replacement model

[maxy]

[youtube=560,345][/youtube]
It will be funny when they release Linux OS that works on any PS3 and has GPU access

Something a bit different

There are some days that the site PS3Gen.fr has announced in exclusivity the new creation of Anonymous, which is a porting of an emulator Nintendo DS. Its name is now NDS3, this emulator has improved, so we decided to make a video of the latest draft to show you the progression.

Since the last version, Anonymous had restart porting of the emulator DeSmuME to adapt with the PowerPC architecture of the PlayStation 3. Now, the console is capable of using the CPU successfully to comfortably play 3D games, they were accelerated by 7 times compared to the first version. However, the emulator is still under development and 3D games are not yet optimized to their fullest. We present two games in this video, Yoshi's Island DS and Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. To make the most of the gameplay offered by the emulator, we cut the cutscenes.

As you see, the 2D games are very fluid and require almost no more work, Anonymous will now concentrate on the most advanced games to optimize the architecture of the PlayStation 3. The video is available below, we will give you more information, always exclusive, as soon as development progresses.

Wii should be next

[maxy]

Dolphin

It could be even more easier to "emulate" on PS3 than on PC

Both Wii and PS3 have Power PC core inside

There is a good PC emulator for every console except Xbox(there are some,but not too good)...although MS has one

PS3 could play almost everything

PS1(does now),PSP,PS2,Gamecube,Wii,NDS+tons of much older emulators

And everything from hard disc,just download and play
 

[Eel O'Brian]

ps4 launch just moved up by a year

[Sho Nuff]

Someone port XBMC stat!

Too bad the homebrew crowd won't embrace this as much as the hacked Xbox 1, given the fact that the PS3 internal architecture is a disaster area

[iconoclast]

does this mean that 3.55 will be hackable?

[Shaka Khan]

does this mean that 3.55 will be hackable?

It means that no matter what version you're running (current FW and beyond), your current PS3 will run any homebrew/executable without even jailbreaking.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

PS3 hate on Evilbore?

[maxy]

Hate?
WTF are you talking about?


  PS3

Already checking local PS3 prices

[Smooth Groove]

So you still need to have a USB dongle for now?

NDS emulation on PS3?

Fantastic! Hopefully Dolphin follows!

CELL, RSX, PLAYSTATION(TM) 3
shitty Nintendo hardware
Xbox 360

I doubt the PS3 can do a decent job of emulating the Wii or even the Gamecube with its weird architecture and small, restrictive memory pool.  But if it worked, it'd be pretty cool to play WII games in 720P with a move controller. 

[T-Short]

Yeah Smooth, this hack is not released yet, the proof-of-concept demo was done using HW hacks, the team says the timeframe for a release is about a month of cleaning up. Also, note that this team is not working on breaking gamemode for pir8 games.

[Mr. Gundam]

If this would let me play my Japanese PS2 games (I have a 60GB BC unit) I'd be stoked.

[maxy]

Keys are out,PS3 is naked now

Waiting to see what the first user signed app will be

[Purple Filth]

Still can believe they fucked up on that encryption so hard 

[Pringo]

Looks like they got PSP keys out of this too. How secure were the 3000 and Go up until now?

[Sho Nuff]

<@Mathieulh> got the kirk engine keys
<@Mathieulh> thx sony xD
<+rck`d> psp crypto
<@Mathieulh> well it's in ps3 but it's psp keys
<@Mathieulh> I can encrypt/sign any psp apps now

<@Mathieulh> lol
<@Mathieulh> yah
<@Mathieulh> has drm keyz too
<@dwrfcrank> Davee: Hey I told you it's a isolated SPU module >:O
<@Mathieulh> so you can make your own psn store clone
<@Mathieulh> on psp

I  think the Go was recently hacked to play ISOs. The PSP has already been fucked from every angle for years though.

[Pringo]

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=25197757&postcount=1795

So apparently they can get AACS keys with this too. Can someone more savvy with this kind of stuff explain what the significance of this is?

[Shaka Khan]

Yeah, a colossal failure of Sony's part, and it just keeps getting worse and worse with every news update. I would pay money to get a glimpse of the panic Sony's offices are going through right now. They haven't issued any official statements, have they?

Also, have the news been reported by any major publication beside blogs? This has to be one of the biggest hardware security blunders in recent history, if not the biggest.
