106w ago - Hello everyone, first I'd like to say thanks to you all for the support, and to Dean for creating this outlet for me.

Here's Aero 2.0, compatible with multiMAN 2.0, and with a nice original XMB display, specially for those with the Heavy Rain dynamic theme, but would suit any. I hope you like it.

This will most likely be my last multiMAN Theme, so Enjoy and Thanks.

107w ago - Today PlayStation 3 developer ThatOtherDev has released a PS3 homebrew game he calls Goodbye World made PSL1GHT with the source code below.

Download: Goodbye World PS3 Homebrew Game / Goodbye World PS3 Source Code

To quote: "Hello world" programs are so cliche. So here is my first simple piece of homebrew made using PSL1GHT (everything else I've released for PS3 was made with the leaked SDK).

You control a space ship using the left analog stick well the world relentlessly follows you and pleads for you to stay. There is no real objective, scoring or anything like that. It's a non game.

I've just realized that it doesn't seem to be working at lower resolutions. It works fine in HD with an HDMI cable but when using component cables it just goes to a black screen.

The same thing happens with the RSX test sample (which is what I used as the basis of this) so the problem isn't something I introduced. I'm guessing there is probably some flaw with the videoGetResolution function but that's just a blind assumption. I haven't done any real testing yet or made any attempt to correct the problem. It would be helpful if there was documentation to consult...

109w ago - This weekend TeamSOS have released a PlayStation 3 homebrew application dubbed PS3 Cheat Enabler version 1.1 followed by some revisions below.

Download: PS3 Cheat Enabler v1.1 / PS3 Cheat Enabler v1.2

To quote: The PS3 Cheat Enabler is a simple GUI app that lets you turn on cheats in your games.

It works by editing the Eboot.bin files of your game, but not to worry fellow brethren, this GUI will get your cheats on and off in a click of a button.

Before you jump in, there are some tidbits of info you guys need to know, as in:

1. The cheat database comes in separately so make sure they are in the same folder to make the app work properly. We did it this way because it becomes easier to just update the database (just a few KB) rather than updating the entire software.

2. This app has an Auto Mode and Manual Mode. Auto mode is the easy way, just select the eboot, direct yourself to the correct game from the drop down box, check the cheats you want and wallah all done. Manual mode you need to select the eboot and put the hex pattern of the original code and then enter the hex pattern of the modified code and then update the eboot so the cheat is enabled. Auto Mode is normally preferred.
