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.

Many people thought it happened but were all proven wrong.

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.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing14d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9214d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
