Hacked2123's PS3 Back-up Video!

[jedix]

Do store bought games boot using this technique? That is, could you play the RR7 disc you had using this exploit?

IMO it appears that in FW 1.11 and lower the XMB takes a few seconds to refresh TOC after another BRD is inserted, and in between this time unsigned code or backed up iso's can be booted, but thats just what I concluded from hacks vid. Right or wrong its an exciting time for PS3NEWS.COM junkies like myself.

Wow! Very cool. I'm also on FW1.8, but I'm interested on seeing how this progresses.

AWESOME WORK!!! 2 questions tho, on COD3 is it a BD or regular dvd? have u tried with psx or ps2 games as well? thanks all the way from Brazil!!!!

You will never be able to get PS3 games on DVD to run... because when the PS3 recognizes a game as a PS3 game, the laser of the Blu-Ray drive will switch to Blu-Ray mode instead. Also, you could do the swap trick and it will produce the same results.

That has already been answered... it's a Blu-ray Disc copied (because it fit) to a DVDR.

Similar to Bucks point above. Has this been tried with PS2 backups?

Wow excellent news.... Has anyone tested this to see if it can be used to bypass the firmware check?

because i have a 1.10 Ps3 and a brand new original of MLB the show 07 just dying to be played.

And your statement is based on what? Have you designed the ps3 ... :??

IMHO - PS3 fw is not taking care about ANY laser switching whatsoever and definitely NOT based on type of disk entered. It's controlled by fw of BD drive.

to hacked2123: Does it boot and RUN the original of that game this way? If yes it's great, if not it might be something related to the "wiping" of the disk described in the site news update.
