My last comments was tagged by the spambot and hence not showing. I will post a quick paraphrase, hopefully, it will show this time. So here goes! The[b] PS3 Software usage terms[/b] do not allow one to modify any portion of the Game software that you may own. Also it mentioned that one Ps3 should not be modified/circumvent any encryption in order to play game. Clearly, what the OP did breaks all these Software usage term. (I am aware he now admits that this is a grey area, but I needed to make a point to clear up a few misunderstandings) Also, the Digital millennium copyright act works in the favour of Sony, and again the action of the OP breaks this sort of act. I also noted that a few individuals are trying to play the "Moral game" here and asking me unrelated question, while ignoring the issue at hand. I think I should make clear that my concern is with how this sort of OP behaviour will spread and it will only be a matter of time, before it ruins the online play experience for the rest of us. Please remember that cheating and pirating in online game - using hacked console - was a common feature in the Xbox online community and one of the many reasons that Microsoft permabanned close to 1 million xbox users. (Again Microsoft pointed out that modifying a console is against the user policy etc) http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33866696/ns/technology_and_science-games/ Again, I have stated that I do not expect my point to be popular with folks around here, after all the issue of Intellectual Property means poo to those who post here etc. |

I just hacked my bro's PS3 using the tutorial link Tex dropped. I used an Ipod video 5g that I borrowed from my neighbour. The tutorial isn't idiot proof so don't expect to get the idea the first time. Unfortunately for me, a God of war 3 backup is more than my free hardisk space(PS3 40G) and Modern Warfare 2 has compatibility issues. So I was only able to play around with the homebrew apps. I'm Gonna install SNEX games soon. Anyways, here are some pics:

Sorry if the pics look terrible. Its a 14 inches TV [LOL] |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by texazzpete(m): 6:26pm On Oct 31, 2010 |
malone5923: Nice one. Just get a screwdriver, take out that old 40GB and swap it out for a decent sized one (320GB - 500 GB) LG shops in Nigeria sell 500 GB for 12600. That was the cheapest i could find, i grabbed one and did the swap |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by Nobody: 7:17pm On Oct 31, 2010 |
^^^^ we geeks know lg is the place to go for cheap hdds offtopic - u can also consider buying this the lg portable multimedia hdd - 500gb - plays mp4, wmv, avi, flv, dat, mov, a little costly at 31k, though probably because its portable i've been dling sesame street etc for my kids, but playing the files on my pc always ends with me wrestling for my mouse with my son - 'daddy let me try' western digital has one with a 3.5" hdd for like $120 or thereabouts, but that's not here its been GREAT fun - the drive is stacked with cbeebies and pbs programs , ben ten ultimate alien , cgi movies and some down memory lane for yours truly - the last unicorn, the muppet movie and for those of you who were kids in britain in the early 80s - star fleet x bomber |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by malone5923(m): 9:02pm On Oct 31, 2010 |
Thanks. I'm gonna get one 2mr and then back up that blasted GOW3. |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by malone5923(m): 9:17pm On Oct 31, 2010 |
It's pain I can't use a desktop HD. |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by malone5923(m): 2:40pm On Nov 01, 2010 |
I just bought a 500GB external HDD. Tex, the HDD you bought, was it external? If yes, why did you say "swap" or can the drive be removed? |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by Bawss1(m): 3:05pm On Nov 01, 2010 |
You don't need to get an external hard drive. Take out the one from the PS3 ( see this link for instructions http://www.gamespot.com/features/6176090/index.html) and install the new one you got. Hackers unite! |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by texazzpete(m): 5:55pm On Nov 01, 2010 |
malone5923: Yeah, pry open the external drive you bought and remove the hard disk. You can easily then remove the existing SATA hard disk from the ps3 and swap it with the new 500gb. The ps3 will then format it. IMPORTANT Use a flash drive to back up your PS3 so you don't lose your save games. |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by Nobody: 10:50pm On Nov 01, 2010 |
i suspect the question is is it a 3.5" or a 2.5" drive? |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by malone5923(m): 11:27pm On Nov 01, 2010 |
@Tex. I decided to leave it just the way it 'cause I also want to use it to backup my Nintendo Wii games. @Oyb. I reckon its a 2.5" drive else it wouldn't be that small . |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by malone5923(m): 9:46am On Nov 02, 2010 |
Tex, I can't find any screw in the external HDD. I guess you really meant it when you said "pry" [LOL]. Theoretically the now old PS3 hardisk should fit right in the external HDD enclosure but does it work? |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by Bawss1(m): 10:08am On Nov 02, 2010 |
@malone5923. You can check out the link I pasted earlier or checkout your users manual. The PS3 uses a 2.5" hard drive |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by malone5923(m): 10:32am On Nov 02, 2010 |
I already know how to replace a PS3 HDD. I just want to know if I pry open my NEW 500GB HDD and insert it into the PS3 will my orginal 40GB PS3 HDD work with the already open external HDD i.e turning it into an external HDD 'cause I need to backup my Wii games? |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by Bawss1(m): 11:04am On Nov 02, 2010 |
As long as there was no problem prior to the swap the hard drive can still be used. . . Maybe TB knows better, he's the modman. You've modded your Wii too? |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by malone5923(m): 11:56am On Nov 02, 2010 |
Yep, softmodded my Wii ages ago. |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by Nobody: 1:16pm On Nov 02, 2010 |
someone pls put me in the direction of wii softmod guides planning on buying one - and i have some er of those classics for some reason dolphin dey chop 60% cpu on my pc - and the fact that i need a classic controller . . . time to relive my childhood |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by texazzpete(m): 5:24pm On Nov 02, 2010 |
malone5923: To be honest, I didn't put the original hard disk in the enclosure. But im pretty sure you'll be able to reformat it back to FAT 32 and use with your Wii |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by Nobody: 5:29pm On Nov 02, 2010 |
sadly, you can't replace the hdd of an hd pvr decoder - at least that what i read on the dstv forums |

God Of War 3 works great on external HDD! Thanks, Tex. |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by texazzpete(m): 10:27pm On Nov 04, 2010 |
malone5923: Nice one! What payload are you using on your iPod? PL3 or Hermes 4b? |

@Tex, Hey Buddy how are you doing? Its been ages right? you don forget your guy finish be that oo! Anyways, I finally mustered the interest to play around with my ps3 (its the original 60GB with all 'em 4 usb, sd card model with the Emotion engine chip for full hardware backward comparabilities) so for that, i have been skeptical about getting all the available updates that Sony is constantly throwing up! so that left me running V3.15 for so long I just finally Jailbroke the machine with CFW 3.55 (don't need any Ipod or Android phone to do this anymore) and I am playing my backed up copy of FIFA10 & GTA 4 from my 1TB external HDD. I think its qquite awesome to be able to do this and i am sure the development still continues. Thanks for this your informative post here though, And remember am still your get-to guy for your gadgets at very cool prices! BTW: I really do not support not buying games anymore for the ps3 simply because of this exploit, I so much love the efforts Sony initially put in manufacturing the PS3 which i believe has changed the world of console gaming from a thing for kids to a full featured Home entertainment machine that I would always support it by buying games. |

Calling this a fallacy would be polite. . . To be blunt, this is military-grade BS! |
Re: Finally Hacked My Ps3 To Play Copied Games! by Chuckdee(m): 3:08pm On Apr 03, 2011 |
@ritchboy, Even if its Military grade BS to or not, its your damn opinion and i ain't got time to argue with you, fact is, that sentence you left in bold is my personal opinion and I did state that if you could actually read well. Now get off my write-up, open your own thread and freely write you boy scout grade crap. Adieu. |

"the PS3 has changed the world of console gaming from a thing for kids to a full featured Home entertainment machine" This is one of those statements that are as equally pitiful as they are hilarious. . . According to this fellow, the PS2, Xbox etc were "a thing for KIDS" The Xbox 360 and PS3 basically do the same things. The Xbox 360 was out a full year before the PS3 but you give the PS3 credit for "changing the world of console gaming" You should be taken out back and shot! |
