It's official. ALL current gen consoles have been hacked.
General | Posted 15 years agoFrom the Nintendo DS to the PS3. All current gen consoles have now been modded to play things ranging from emulators to backup managers (and I mean backups not 'backups')
Ironically, the PS3 is the easiest to mod if you haven't updated past 3.55. It's litterally as simple as copying an update to a USB stick and updating like normal. I say ironic because the PS3 uses insanely strong security. In fact the only way they were able to hack it was to get the encrypted signing keys. Because without that there was no way at all to run unauthorized software.
They could have used those keys to sign each individual software package. But they decided it would be easier to sign a firmware update that's been coded to essentially ignore signature checking. So now both signed and unsigned software can be run.
That is...IF you haven't updated past 3.55.

So what consoles do you have modded?
General | Posted 16 years agoMyself, I have two Xbox 360 systems. One is banned, but it's a jtagged system so it's all good. The other only has the DVD drive flashed with iXtreme and it's still going strong as far as online capabilities.
On top of that I also own 2 old fat PSP's flashed with the latest GEN firmware. They both work but one has dead pixels. I plan on replacing the screen.
