I dont get it. Is this really all that different from a standard USB thumb drive? Won't some other hacker just break down whatever security this has and make it free?

Yes, I did. I watched it being done at OzModChips and it is NOT a dev unitRock Raiyu said:So...has anyone actually confirmed this working on a retail PS3? And not a debug unit?

When a backup is made, is there any possibility the disc could be damaged?

58-pin MCU is inside. This is not a USB Flash Drive with some data on it.

fair enough, i retract my statement... or do i?!
no, i really dont. hackers will more than likely find a way around this either with the clones or a diy solution.

I think you misunderstood me. I'm not talking about launching the manager. I'm saying that once ripped to the HDD (the game files the manager launches) it then can be uploaded to the usual places, therefore a surge in piracy. Not that you can launch with a BD-r. I think the original quote is saying you can't use the manager to play the BD-r either.OrGoN3 said:hundshamer said:Not necessarily. If you can rip a game to the FAT32 HDD on the PS3, then you can connect the HDD to the PC and upload the files within to the usual places.psykobug said:a fench site tested it with a burnt BR disc , it don't work . you need to insert the original BR in your ps3 . so no massive internet piracy for now.
You need ANY retail PS3 game in the drive for this to work. It doesn't matter what it is, it just needs to be there so the dongle can activate bdemu.
Also, slims, and all PS3s actually, can play PS3 and PS1 games natively (retail discs or downloads). PS2 compatibility was removed to remind consumers to purchase the still active stock of PS2, or to get PS2 to die. Probably the former since they are still allowing 3rd party vendors to release games on PS2 (ie, Madden 11).
That WILL be the price in AU. it is the way it is. God of War III was over $100.antwill said:How is that an accurate list when none of those games are out yet at all?Fun_Zephyr said:But to go a few steps further:

If it's anything like the 360's jtag (glad to have made my own) then the files normally don't fill up the disc. The main problem I see is games with a file over 4GB (I haven't found one on the 360 yet) would have to be saved to the PS3's internal HDD therefore those games will not show up on the net. Unless they find a way to split files and have the backup manager merges them on the fly.raiderscrusade said:hundshamer said:I think you misunderstood me. I'm not talking about launching the manager.

I too was thinking this.
It all depends on the filesizes of the ripped backups, I guess, and also the amount of files ripped too.
Hopefully these ripped files are small, but I highly doubt it.
