PS3 playing backups from HDD or USB

If this video is legit and the news is correct, the PS3 can play backups from HDD or USB with the Ottom@n Team PS3 loader. To be released 9 September.

That's pretty soonish, so you all will know if it is the truth or a lie within a few weeks... If it's true, Sony has a huge problem. BluRay isn't the problem at all, so that copyright protection is pretty useless.

Love how that site is blowing a couple of unconfirmed hax'ing out of proportion. For one... Blu-Ray has nothing to do with people pirating. I'd like to see games really stream from a USB device when there is 10+ gigs of data to consider. Not to mention ripping that amount onto a standard PS3 HDD.

'Flopaganda' at it's best.

The AV cable disappears behind the conveniently placed curtain for a reason.

How do you play a game freom the PS3 hard drive when it is FAT32 and only supports 4GB of data for 1 file maximum?

How come these videos always have really crappy angles?

timmyp536075d ago

know how do i brick my console again?

Cornstalker6075d ago

is still tring to digg up neg news. You need to look at your own system that has the highest failure rate of the 3,and it seems that it just keeps happening. quit digging up garbage, and go play the almighty overrated failure.

DEADEND6075d ago

It would be funny if he was trying to use this against the PS3 when people like my friends have been burning 360 games since January, thats the only reason why most of my friends even bought a 360. Plus this might not work anyway.

ShiftyLookingCow6075d ago

Cops would love to talk to your wonderful friends about the nice guy aka mod chip seller.

hongthay6075d ago

The 360 came out in November 2005, by February 2006, they were selling modified Xbox 360 consoles that could play copied games. It only took 4 months to crack the 360. The Wii took about 6 weeks. And, if this is true, which it does bot look to be by the way, the PS3 took 10 months. So, there DRM did hold up for a while. But ditto what that other guy said about the PS3 hard drive being FAT32 and only holding a 4gb section of data per unit. The only game that would work for would be Warhawk.

Chriswsm6075d ago

What a crap vid with an unrealistic story. Next time they should consider using the camera to film the screen and not then entire room.

Story and video = pants

Tales Of Graces Ƒ Retro Review – Holding Out For a Hero

Gary Green said: Namco Bandai heard the call of many fans asking for the PlayStation release of Tales of Graces which was originally released seemingly exclusively for the Wii back in 2009. If you’re acquainted with the Tales series then Graces f won’t be something entirely new to you, yet if you’re a newcomer then you’ll find a plethora of gameplay mechanics and nuances that distinguish this series from other JRPGs. While the game finds itself following the traditional archetype of JRPGs, such as a somewhat clichéd story, Graces has something to offer to both veterans and newcomers alike.

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

LG_Fox_Brazil3d ago

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai3d ago

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

CrimsonWing692d ago

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

solideagle2d ago

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Abnor_Mal2d ago

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

DaReapa2d ago

No. Square Enix owns the IP.

Abnor_Mal2d ago

Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*

*As per Wikipedia

boing12d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.
