PS3 May Be THE FIRST *NOT TO GET HACKED*

**porchemasi** · December 3rd, 2007, 14:25

Its been over a year and the system has yet been hacked/modded/altered to run any homebrew or backups! I think this is simply a first!

Wii hacked within a month, X360 afew months, PS3 1 YR and COUNTING!

Common folks! Were is the DAX and Noobz for the PS3??

If it cant be hacked... then lets focus on pure homebrew via Linux! I mean a full retro remake of every emulator to take advantage of the PS3 SPU would be sweet!

We can pwn VC with the PS3 XD

It really depends on what you mean by hacked. There is work on getting hardware accelerated 3D for PS3 Linux/Homebrew on the ps2dev forums.

Acting almost as if this is something to be proud of.

The only reason no ones hacked it yet is because Sony is OCD about sueing people.

Thats a lie. You can already play PS2 backups using the swap magic hack. Their also working on various browser, otheros and linux hacks.

I haven't heard of any successful kernel access exploits within the XMB though, as far as I know...

Maybe, but it's not good for DCEmu because it's mainly a homebrew site

Almost forgot, theres a firmware hack that allows you to downgrade.

I'm pretty sure you need an older firmware to use Swap Magic with the PS3 and take the PS3 apart.

you dont need to take the PS3 apart and last i heard it ran anything upto 1.90FW, dunno if its been tried since or not? and yes there was a hack but ya needed a PC to do it, and it downgraded 1.60 to 1.50FW's

As in "hacked" i mean making the machine do something its not designed to do, such as play backups or homebrew (like running of unauth code)

I mean ps2 backups that can be confirmed by like 10 ppl in the world?

Regardless i think the future is through Linux and its only a matter of time till programers/hackers actually BUY a PS3!

ZX81 IM STILL ROOTING FOR YOU! Im gonna PM you in another 6 months just like your nagging dentist, to c if you baught a PS3 :thumbup:
