PS3 Jailbreaks Galore Released

Posted by timothy on from the they'll-need-a-lot-of-dogs dept.

YokimaSun writes "Following up on yesterday's story about the PS3 being hacked by one of its own official controllers, there's now a guide in English that details how to mod a Sixaxxis controller. But thanks to the very latest releases, if you don't like soldering you can now use an iPod, a Pandora console or even a Dingoo console. Finally, Jaicrab has released a USB firmware loader which will come in handy once the first custom firmware for the PS3 is released. Maybe then we will get region-free Blu-ray, PS1 and PS2 games."

  1. It almost makes me sad to have sold my ps3. by allaunjsilverfox2 · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    I sold my ps3 back when they took away my OtherOS abilities. Now I'm almost sad to see it disappear now that so many options are open to me.

    It sounds so.. childish. I also hate that people think it's cool to adapt the name for other things.
