Few faults with this...okay, yes it's hacked, but hacking the "now defunct PS3" the big one, so obviously the hardware is going to be different with new things going on inside the slim, for one thing it's not backward compatible so the code will be different.
Next, I think we should start a poll on this, but how many people here would download a PS3 at 50GB? Let alone how many people have Bluray Burners (I'm sure quite a few, but not enough) and how many are willing to pay for the insane price on the BD-50 (
sure it might be able to get scrubbed (junk data removed), but I can tell you I beat there using up most of the disc space on that disk, just imagine God Of War 3 for free)? Shit I think for on BD-50 there like $10, still you save $50, but most people are capped and I beat their capped at 50GB, and if not, some people will be like okay no problem to get this, just imagine the download times let alone? ....this will still be for the rich and who can afford it, which will not be many right now..now we are gonna have endless thread about is it region free, does it have to be burned on Bluray (duh?) and why won't it work, how do I flash it
This is a VERY long way from being actual playable and do what end you can use it
Oh and you know Sony is going to come with a firmware update to fuck with this guy now
And any future models that are being made will have additional security checks, but I'm sure if he is still cracking all versions of the iPhone I'm sure he can get back, can you say "lawsuit"
Dude will be visited by MIB very soon, you can beat that, since he's stupid enough to say what "city" he's located it, track IP/Whois/Owner of his blog and they got him....better release the code soon.
Note: If you think this changes the "console war tide" it won't, people are still not gonna buy PS3's, the gaming selection isn't there yet, maybe 20 "good games at most" and maybe 5-10 "great games" plus PSN just doesn't compare to XBL yet....the PS3 is still a good buy with Bluray, but also hinders it in the cost of "BD's", DVDR's are way cheaper
PS3 is getting there, soon they will be ='s, but not yet.

I like both systems, I bought a slim so I could have Bluray and good BD players were same price so figured meh, it's credited to be the best one....but for games I can't say so far, Drakes are good, and MGS is awesome, I use it for USB and HD movies more than anything right now. Also the hack is for the "fat" model anyway, anyone want to go spent $500 on em' that's a "right now price" once people realize what's going on they will sell them for like $1000 or they will disappear, granted more than "half" probably own the fatty version... but the GB's are double a 1080p movie and most people have caps and not to mention blanks are insanely expensive, I could see this "a very good" idea in about 2 years from now when BD discs are the price of DVDRs, basically forcing people to switch...took me 5 years to get a HDTV and Hi-DEF systems
