Even if this guy manages to hack/crack the ps3 WhoTF is gonna buy BD Drive, BD Disk, download gigantic BD images over the net. Its better to just get the original or buy selected awesome games in Platinum Edition for a lower price.
 
^indeed.

Anyway i was browsing through the sites rules and found this.

Not sure if this thread qualifies or not.
 
I guess this thread will be deleted.

But anyway, if this is true then ps3 sales will kill xbox360 even before Natal!
 
I am really not happy with the PS3 crack if it's true. Cos the game developers are going to suffer largely and if they quit we'll not see better games on PS3.

I hope PS3 doesn't ends like PSP

Not necessarily. The PS2 still had a lot of titles going for it even after it was modded after a few months of it's release. So I don't think the developers would go helter skelter if the PS3 gets modded.
 
xbox 360 was hacked ages ago...but we see great games after games in 360... same will be for PS3..

If PS3 is hacked, it would give tremendous boost to its sales in India atleast. the reason people don't buy PS3(incl myself) is costly games.
 
yes. of course, The last time I thought of buying PS3, I saw that it cannot be hacked and that originals costs 2k-3k.

yes that is intems of ps3 hardware,but then again not sure if sony gets more profits(pehaps loss in hardware sales) from selling console or from royalties from game developers.
 
The only reason PS3 is surviving is due to game royalties, Sony makes a loss on every PS3 hardware sold.

And generally we let go off such threads, provided links to warez is not provided.
 
Too good to be true but I guess I'd stick with the original copies and sell them off when I'm done with the game.

Oh well, about time the next Playstation (PS4?) research begins! I guess Sony must've already been into it. :ohyeah:
 
I'm thinking about getting the old PS3 model. The one that supports Linux.. I just want to experience the Cell Processor and play Blu-Ray discs.. but still this is awesome news..
 
If Sony decides to go with BD for game media on Ps4 (instead of digital xfer) then definitely we'll see an early crack for Ps4. Until then BD media is gonna be expensive, better off buying originals/platinums and selling them off.
 
PlayStation 3 hacked; GeoHot releases 'coveted PS3 exploit' - ramifications 'unclear' says DigitalFoundry

Reader Kevin K shared this link from Eurogamer's resident egghead, Richard Leadbetter of DigitalFoundry, who notes that "it remains unclear what the ramifications of the hack actually are" and that "right now there has been no "hello world" homebrew code executed that typically demonstrates that the hacker actually has full control over the system." Read the entire piece for a fascinating look into the challenge of hacking the PS3 and the safeguards put in place on Sony's black box.

You may also want to read this BBC interview with Mr. Hotz, in which he says, "I can now do whatever I want with the system. It's like I've got an awesome new power - I'm just not sure how to wield it." He also tells the BBC that he "would publish details of the console's 'root key'"; however, DigitalFoundry writes, "Once the root key is available, it's essentially game over for the system's security for all-time, but it's here that some of the claims being made for the hack don't really add up. PSP has been compromised on many levels again and again, but its root key apparently remains unknown."

I guess you can put in a Rumor until proper working of this Hack is not seen :D
