• Medal Of Honor PS3 Requires 3.42 - Sony Strikes Back (No Work Arounds Yet)



    It seems that Medal of Honor require FW 3.42 to play on the PS3. If you deny the update you are thrown back into XMB


    Previously it was reported that F1 2010 was the first game to require PS3 Firmware 3.42, however, today lineX7 has confirmed that Medal of Honor requires 3.42




    Source: PS3 News



    Please be warned that there are certain work arounds out ther now, but are all BS, you knew the Sony PS3 "hacking' fad would come to end sooner or later If you read various sources, it's but all impossible to make custom firmware cause you cannot recompile the firmware updates

      Ya. and many said the ps3 would not be hacked in the first place. Anybody that believe that anything is not hackable is being ignorant. All it takes is time, or a stroke of genius/ingenuity

      That's incorrect on a LOT of levels. Yes, there are no workarounds YET, but given the development at the moment there will be very soon. The hacking 'fad' has not come to an end, just because Sony used one game to require 3.42 does not mean the hack is obsolete. And no it is not impossible to create a CFW, as recently the v3.41 debug FW was leaked and hackers are now using that to create a CFW - and they have made substantial progress.

      Check here: http://psx-scene.com/forums/f6/cfw-r...ss-skfu-68252/

      SKFU replaced files from the Debug FW to the OFW and it worked, and had new options. So it's a WIP. COD:BOPS will have a v3.50 OFW restriction, not v3.42. By the time that is released, there will be enough progress into patching the new FW's.

      I suggest you read up a bit more before you state this hack is a 'fad'. Check this site for more info: http://psx-scene.com/forums/cmps_index.php

      Cheers
