It is similar to the recently released PS3 PKGView and UnPKG file extractors / unpackers, and to use it simply click the big button and select your PKG file.

To quote, roughly translated: "There is a similar procedure before the call PkgView.exe But the program can not bulk unpacked, unpack and often wrong.

The device can be quickly unpacked all the files once unpacked. Self-made program can only unpack and debug pkg. Can not unpack the pkg downloaded from the official PSN."

PKGView seems to be the best right now, but any useful contribution to the ps3 scene is appreciated. Thanks jeffma!

probably with a custom firmware (jaicrab give to us hopes ) we will understand also the retail package in future.

its already possible to unpack retail pkg. Its done on the ps3, you just cant play it after it installs. It asks you to go onto psn and get license.

The app in the command line window on the screenshot looks suspiciously like plain old make_package_npdrm
