Potential PS3 Homebrew Exploit Found

According to PS3Gen, PSP developer Placasoft recently found an exploit for the PS3 which works on firmwares 1.80-1.81. The information was discovered via a leak from some forums, and then disseminated without much knowledge of what the exploit is.

Imagine a PS3 homebrew in the future that would allow it to play 360 games?.......How crazy would that be.

[Phantom_Lee]

Im sure some guy in China is trying to do that now..

[weekapaugh]

The 360 games would look better on the PS3 and the discs wouldn't get scratched.

[bootsielon]

And the reverse would be impossible too. The architectures are so different that the games wouldn't work properly on neither platform. Furthermore, you need RAM, and processing time for emulation; especially a ton if you need to emulate these two beasts. So that would be impossible. Consider it debunked, before some retarded Xbots start bashing you.

Bubble for ya for that comment.

[sadiq]

i was thinking about that, 360 emulator on linux? oh ho ho

[Premonition]

Looks like he was trying to get warhawk to work, but couldnt.

[Maddens Raiders]

but what the He77 is the xploit? It looks like the wallpaper was changed due to the app, but what is it...some kind of emulator for other games burned copid or otherwise? I have no idea.

Anyway this is going to get super huge (PN3 modding) and I really hope it doesn't adversely affect everyone elses good ideas as far as UGC. As long as these things are kept in checdk everyone should get along fine. But once someone's money is infringed upon ~ Look out!

On that note Bill (above) I expect to see some nutjob running GeoW on the PS3 before Halloween '07. That will surely raise some brows and bring new meaning to "gaming 3.0." Welcome to the darkside.

[Mycococo]

he shouldnt have advertized it before it works. now sony is going to find the exploit and fix it

[Odion]

Madden Raider you do realize that GOEW won't work on PS3 because it was built around the 512 ram found in the 360. So unless someone is going to rewrite the entire thing i wouldn't get to excited about this.

[Maddens Raiders]

I'm not excited. I was simply making a sarcastic statement regarding the determination of moddrs / hackers to impose their will on console manufacturers FTW! Please don't get your dander up so high mate. =]

[MK_Red]

Homebrew is good. Hope t hey dont use these for piracy if thats possible.

[DiLeCtioN]

was that

[pale2hall]

wonder how he got the file on there.

we should be freely allowed to play homebrew games....

[gunnar2906]

With just a simple replacement of a background picture and icon of a package of any official packages for PS3, downloaded to ps3 with ps3proxy server program from a networked PC And of course this lil footage doesnt mean anything at all. It is not a crack or something. It is not even an exploit, just a picture replacement.

[Lord Anubis]

As Developers, they stated they wont do any game exploit (burnt||emu), as they described it hurts the industry and it hurts sony. The exploit will be specifically to run homebrew and nothing more.

[Marceles]

probably some kind of warhawk beta exploit...video was lame anyway
