Its all over the news, the previously unhackable PS3 was supposedly hacked by the same guy that was able to jailbreak the Iphone 2G, so this lends some credit to the story. http://gizmodo.com/5455326/father-of-jai...ystation-3
Will we be able to access the full potential of our consoles soon? Like being able to install the proper codecs for previously unsupported videos. It's good to note that there is no release yet, and this may be just a hoax, but coming from the first guy who was able to hack the Iphone, he has a lot of credit going for him.
Quote:George Hotz, the young gun who first hacked the iPhone 2G, has claimed to have compromised the Playstation 3. On his blog, Hotz wrote:
I have read/write access to the entire system memory, and HV level access to the processor. In other words, I have hacked the PS3. The rest is just software. And reversing. I have a lot of reversing ahead of me, as I now have dumps of LV0 and LV1. I've also dumped the NAND without removing it or a modchip.
Hotz hasn't revealed the exact details of the exploit, so nothing's confirmed quite yet, but interested PS3 users should stay tuned to see how this unfolds.
