PS3 Finally Hacked? Geohot Way!

[Ethan_Hunt]

So the beast which was uncrackable for 3 long years, could the security have finally been bypassed?

Quote from the main blog:

"I have read/write access to the entire system memory, and HV level access to the processor. In other words, I have hacked the PS3. The rest is just software. And reversing. I have a lot of reversing ahead of me, as I now have dumps of LV0 and LV1. I've also dumped the NAND without removing it or a modchip."

I wudnt be surprised if its just another attempt by someone looking to get some web traffic diverted to his site lol

but, well lets just hope its true and it gets playability off hdd, coz burning on BD would be too much hassles, wud rather buy the game lol

Geohot? Is this the same guy who hacked the iphone?

If so I believe there might be some truth in the claims.

Did he hack the old one or the new slim one?

I doubt that, the guy doesen't need much more traffic or fanfare. He's the one who first cracked theoriginal iPhone as well as the creator of the latest tool for jailbreaking and unlocking the iPhone 3GS called blackra1n.

Wasn't Geohot on of the original unlockers of the iphone? Maybe it is true. At least, it is a bit more believable than the other rumors.
