PS3 Jailbreak madness.

Madness broke out recently of a new PS3 jailbreak. Many people doubted it, and were all proven wrong. This just goes to show that anything can be hacked, and anyone who says otherwise is a fool. Now, let us see the advantages of this PS3 modchip...

1. Free games.

And now, the disadvantages...

1. Developers start to turn away.
2. No multiplayer.
3. Banned console.

Basically, anyone who does not care about the 1st party developers paycheck, and multiplayer on their games should get this modchip. And anyone who does care about the hard working developers, and enjoys not having their console banned should not support this modchip. Now, here is even more bad news.
Recently, this modchip that is hardcoded has been cracked by a single person and put up online for free. It is currently in testing mode, and not yet available to the public. You know what this means don't you? This means that if this person releases this to the public, and anyone can download the crack and put it on their usb, it will not cost them $120 to buy the usb in the first place, which in turn means there are going to be many people who are going jailbreak their PS3's for free.

Hopefully Sony forcefully updates everyones consoles before this free crack come out to places such as thepiratebay and demonoid, or the pirates have won this generation of consoles.

You are wrong. The jailbreak usb stick is not a flash pen. It uses a PIC chip like in some of the XGameStation do it yourself console models.

SO, good luck downloading the 'crack' and making a piece of flash memory behave like a micro-controller.

Even Shift Up admits Stellar Blade's story isn't the best, and also confirmed the in-development story DLC has now been shifted to the sequel.

Good to see the devs acknowledge it. Thoguht the gameplay was fun but I could really care less for Eve or any of the characters. Hopefully the sequel will give Eve actual personality.

This news is exciting, considering they never offered "full bc" in any of their previous consoles. 360 did a great majority of OG but had some issues here and there. Then with XBO it was added after the fact, but a welcome addition none the less. Series has done a great job of supporting the XBO gen with both organic bc and tailored bc. that means some games naturally worked better because of the better hardware, while others had to be enabled to work better via that whole FPS boost program.

Its gonna have to offer a lot more than backwards compatibility or else it'll just be a repeat of the last 2 generations.

My Xbox library + My Steam library + My Epic library + My Battlenet library + Gamepass + Sony exclusives + EA + Ubisoft.

PERFECT for me!

I’m just not that excited for “next gen” consoles. Gaming has officially hit the phone model market. Base release, pro release, sequel. And you can even argue that the sequel for some is just a pro release.

Switch 2 is a switch pro. Xbox next will be the Xbox pro(if you don’t already consider the X as the pro since the s is the dominate on their market share).

I am pretty sure I can wait until ps6 pro at this point because my ps5 pro and base will play everything they will get with the exception of 1 or 2 games in the first year.

Day 1 for me, 22 years with xbox and besides the 360 debacle, never let me down, also saved tons of money.

First time I probably won't be Day 1....I don't really understand.

Every time one of these “well, obviously” statements pops up like in article form, I wonder who it’s even for. Then I check the comments and remember, console players, proudly lost in the settings menu, still trying to figure out what HDR is.

And suddenly, those "articles" make perfect sense
