QJ.net reports that "some hackers have announced that they've discovered a way to access the 3D contexts on the Graphics Processor Unit of the PlayStation 3. If what they say is true, then this will allow homebrew developers to create their own 3D applications for the console.
CNLohr posted a video on YouTube of the PlayStation 3 running some code in Linux. Allegedly, the hypervisor is talking with the nVidia RSX video card of the console to render the three animated quads in the foreground and the triangles in the background.
According to CNLohr, the demo being used is a modified version of IronPeter's libps3rsx from ps3dev.org. For those who want to try replicating his setup, the PS3 is running using a patched 2.6.24 experimental, unofficial kernel on Gentoo Linux".
Capcom commemorated the two-year anniversary of Dragon's Dogma 2 with new artwork that fans say contains hints of a major update.
I don't see Capcom revisiting the game outside of a Switch 2 port. It under-performed and generally when that happens any potential future content goes bye-bye.
Surprise! A new update for the near 20-year-old PlayStation 3 is rolling out today, March 18.
Jesus Christ it was 20 years ago when i bought my first PS3 50Gb fat version for $538 with my school's financial aid refund.
“ Congrats, you're old now”
That’s what she told you last night

I will never forget March 23 2007 the day this beast released in Europe I got it with Virtua Tennis 3 and GT concept.
My favorite PS console ever.
Yea so you can't jailbreak it ahaha. Best thing you can do with these old consoles is jailbreak em, finally have the freedom to do with em whatever is possible.

if that happens then the ps3 will sell into the roof and the ratio of games bought to console sold is gonna get very interesting.
ps3 already struggling on that ratio already. hmmm
Homebrew development kicks ass... What you saw on the PS2 is only a fraction of what they can do with the PS3 now.
Whatever happens, these hacks always help ps3 sales and finally there is some good sales figures to look forward too
that would be great.. can't wait until the PS3 becomes the home ground for homebrew like the PSP is... I would buy a PS3 on day 1... imagine playing all the old Nes, Snes, PSP, N64...
Seriously this will have no affect on PS3 ISO loading x_x. Thats a completely different animal for those who are saying that. This will simply mean GPU support in Linux nothing more nothing less. So emulators will work but it will have no affect on the actual PS3 OS...
