PS3 With 3.50 Firmware Jailbroken Without Downgrade

Hackers: 2 Sony: 0 — that's the current standing score now that the X3 team have successfully performed a jailbreak on the official 3.50 PS3 firmware, allowing homebrew applications and more to be enabled. Here's a video of the jailbreak in action.

Impressive. Still I'd like to see a return of the OtherOS feature though. Hopefully that'll come with time. At least this will allow folks to play games that require v3.50, regain access to the Playstation Network and still run homebrew. Those stuff will be fine enough for me right now.

I also posted this news on my forum section.

I have a X3Max that was sent to me for review. I'm trying to see if my source from X3Max will let me get the file early so I can make a video to show that its legit.

Some people think its the 3.50 spoof with the date changed. While others think its a debug unit since it has some menus that is not on a retail console.

Is it? I hope you can get it so we can see if it's the real deal or not, good luck with that.
