Yes there is an exploit in the system software, but IDK if theyre using an older version or 1.32
to download ~15GB, no thanks!
SOny shouldn't fear this. The games now are too huge to download, and to buy them illegally won't be worth it or convenient.
Besides, I still haven't met a single person who did not own pirated games for the ps1, and it was still the top console.
what do you have dialup?
i'll download any amount GBs for free games. Thats why im on this site. Thanks QJ for the ps3 update on free games~~~
Until Super Internet or something even faster is available, nobody will even bother to down load a file of such an extreme nature. It takes a good week sometimes to dl 1gb files. To dl a 15gb file or larger, (or even a 50gb iso) the war will be over by then.
it may take 1 week on your 56k connection using WinMX, but using torrents and a 10MB Connection, a 1 GB file can be d/l'd in a few hours.
its not 10MB its 10MBit
if you had 10mb connection, wow.
Are you a freaking chimp? It takes maybe 20 minutes to get 1GB. 15GB is easily a single day's download.
Great to see you can all read. "Nah" said "sometimes".
Next week, we'll look at basic punctuation.
I have a 15Mbps (Megabit per second) connection which equals about 1.8 - 2 MBps (MegaBytes per second). I use Giganews which will utilize every bit of that connection. 15 GB + 15360 MB at a constant 1.8 MBps will take 143 Minutes which equals 2 hours and 23 minutes! So it would take me 3 hours max for a PS3 game. I wouldnt download one since I have no PS3 but if i had to its not a problem :?
The point isn't the games, it's the exploit...
I don't know where you've been, but with a good DSL or Cable plan you can download 1GB pretty fast. Heck, Vanguard's beta download is 7.5GB for a 22GB install. Downloading a series of anime or a DVD ISO is usually around 4.5GB, and I'm sure there is a lot of that 15GB that can be compressed to a certain extent
What programs do u use? (i use shareaza) i live in australia, and i hate to say it, but compared to the rest of the world, ours is *****....
oh you think your lines suck, ours may be pretty fast (20MBit/512kbit here atm), but the data transfer limits suck, most of us here are stuck @ 10GB/month... (belgium)
i download 1gb in about 1 hour or less on a 8Mb line
this will be the Dead of the PS3, someone remember DREAMCAST !! this is a Bad day for PS3 FANS like me
This exploit is far less then the exploit on the Xbox360.
If this would kill the PS3, the Xbox360 would have been dead long ago.
This exploit requires a storage medium for Blue-ray games, this also requires knowledge of how to use the exploit.
The Xbox360 requires little knowledge whatsoever, just flash the DVD drive and burn Xbox360 games and play, nothing to it.
Obviously you have never tired flashing or even opening a 360 Vietone.
I was able to get the Xbox360 exploit working in less then an hour after reading about it on QJ.
Im very comfortable with working with hardware and was able to open the Xbox360, connect it to my computer, flash it and reassemble and play in less then an hour.
Right now, me and all my neighbors who have Xbox360s are now using the firmware exploit thanks to me.
Its extremely easy, much easier then installing mod chips.
My Freind Already told me....that he can actually Play Copied 360 DVD game Discs without even having to Modchip..
yes that is true, you can even play backed up games without opening your 360, just flash the DVD drive with a new firmware... but once you do that, you risk getting banned from LIVE and getting your 360 bricked!
@main post
well, look at sony's history man...
every piece of sony hardware up untill now was easy to pirate on
didn't stop em till now... psx, ps2, psp..
He he, 15Gb isn' t anything enormous. Good compression + good internet and there you go ;) No more than 24h needed I think.
And about exploit. It's fantastic, so fast :)) Thanks to Paradox.
When we will get PS3 in Europe it already could be hacked. Nice work!
I hope it will work on the first update. Thats all i did.
my guess is sony put the exploit in there to test the waters
can we say 1.0?
Well sony, is not playing dumb,but it takes me like 12 hours downloading 15 mb,but if you have 60 gigabytes,well i guess it wouldn't be a problem,but they haven't learn with the psp yet,but i am sure if there is a way to crack the games sony will come up with something,so i buy game beacause i respect sony as a company.so will see.
use usenet and u can download at totally fullspeed. look at www.newsdemon.com, everything come out on usenet first anyway. 15 gigs would take a matter of hours. but i think the main concern right now is buying a blueray burner and blueray disks. youd have to download and enjoy at least 20-30 games before you would have made even. but i guess in a years time if this exploit is still availiable and blueray burners are cheaper, then it wont be a problem
it would take me about 4-6h to download
its not a big deal :) im patient
i'm already playing copied games on my 360. hahaha. haven't even bought one game for the system yet!!!
If they can get it playing why dont they release the info on how to play copied games. Maybe they feel sorry for sony because its soo soon so they just give out clues?
As for downloading 15 gigs is no problem even 25 gigs when you get up to 50 it'll take a little while but at 15 mb cable to fiber optic line a game should download fairly fast.
Well jut in case they got it working Sony might fix the problem in the nex production cycle or if it is unfixable Sony might even recall all PS3's on the market.
probably a fake!!!
... no one will download, all the fanboys saying "haha will download in 2 hours" just STFU, you know you cant. Plus, you would bit like 3 games on one 60 GB HDD, and 10 on 180 GB, so would wear it out preety fast. and, like some other dude said, if this were to kill the PS3, the 360 would be non-existant.
Last time I checked the game files are not that large in ISO maybe 4-6 gigs. If I get a good torrent going at about 300kbps-600kbps I could maybe download it in about 5-8 hours. I only have about a 160gig hard drive and I don't care for expanding this computer any further, I couldn't see myself filling up the hard drive with ISO's of PS3 games, i'd end up backing it up on a Double Layer DVD. Or if comes to worse, break the larger ISO's into seperate RARs and multiple DVD's for future use. With that said, The 360 comment, I don't have the balls to break my 360 open and f' with the firmware on the DVD drive. Plus, Sometimes I enjoy opening a new game. Sometimes I enjoy getting stuff for free.
all u people above me that posted, well ***** You! First, dont you have *****ing better things to do than freakin download 30GB+ of data? second your supposed to be supporting the devs so we can get better games, all you gay people that would rather download games.... *****ERS!!!!!
Why put a 180 gig drive in your system. They have 750 gig satas for 300-400 bucks. Thats less then the price of 10 games. hmm... math 10 * say 15 gigs = 150 gigs still have 600 gigs left. and you dont have to switch out the games. So about 50 games on a 750 gig drive. Probably more depending on size of game. Some are only 5 to 8 gigs. As soon as they figure out how to put copied games into the game folder we are set! Just a matter of mounting the damn PS3 file system. Or redirecting to the linux partition :)
This is great. And they wont have the files together. They will have them in several downloads. To make it easier. I cant wait.
Sites are already sharing PS3 dumps. Most games are under 6GBs not 50GBs. This isn't good news for Sony, PS3 owners, or the gaming industry.
I was talking to some peeps in #ps3 on efnet and they were saying paradox cracked a test (beta) ps3 that was released a while ago. which means it probably has some buggy beta firmware and whatnot. This means no free games for pirates yet and why they havent told anyone else how to play copied games.
if this is true then all they did was burn their linux dump to a BD and insert. The beta/test ps3s have no backup prevention.
even so, that is still one step ahead.
yes i saw ps3 iso's by paradox and they range from 4-6.5 gb except for resistance which is 15 gb, even some pepole today posted on one torrent ste that they are playable on dvd's..no bluerays needed..can't wait to have a ps3
all u have to DO IS RIP It from blockBuster OMG!! u guy are dumb to go and download ISO. i never download any ISO for psp i just go and rip them down. just use ur brain.
AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH noob
at the moment you can't play a ps3 game from a backup dvd right now even with an exploit. the drive can't read a dvd with the blue laser.
the graphic background that loads when a game is inserted is part of the security. if that info changes (different disk loaded) you will get an error. If you replace the origional disk after this error you will still recieve and error and have to restart the machine.
blue ray wont read dvds huh...wowo i must have some proto unit bcuz mine plays dvds and ps2 games....
duh, of course it reads dvds, with the red laser.
u rip them to iso stupid. not burn to dvd. and in time u can do that i not say right now u stupid. and there is a laptime from sony that can read blu ray. later they will make a blu rap dumping
I am a pirate but I hate to see the rough start that the ps3 has had be even rougher with the intoduction of piracy, I mean devolopers are already questioning if they want to make ps3 yet and this will do nothing but delay that, I dont mind piracy in fact I like it but I would want this to happen in like 2 years once the console gets on its feet.
ur a noob 2
These things are no hassle to download, I have access to a gigabit link...
And *****ing hell, what's up with all the kiddos here?
thats your LAN, not your WAN link speed.
you do not have a gigabit link, a 100mbps link is available but that is a T/E1 link costs thousands of dolars per month
people in here seem to think that people do not download files over 100 megabytes, in Sweden, which is not exactly the backwater of internet connections, you can get 100mbit down /10mbit up for around $32 if you live in the right place. (even 1gbit is becoming available to the public)
Firstly You'll Need A Blu-Ray Drive Writer Thingy to actually write them onto a Disk...
Or if u use the hard drive well you'll only fit a couple of games on..
And Last well you need fast internet which in the UK costs a little bit...
i have 2MB broadband and that costs not much only about £18 but like 8MB is expensive so most people won't be able to use this exploit unless they own all that stuff
Broadband in the UK is a complete rip off. A good 8MBps supplier (with no limits) will set you back around £30-£40 a month.
Then, once you've got that, you need a hard drive. PS3 games are around 10-25GB, so if you want to have about 5 games you'll need a 100GB hard drive. Although they are quite cheap now, it's still a lot just to get 5 games, which isn't a lot.
Following this you'll need a Blu-Ray drive, which costs around £900.
Piracy on the PS3 doesn't seem very cheep, unless they managed to let you take out your PC HDD, and use it on your PS3: eliminating the need for Blu-Ray discs/writer.
Of course launch games are 5-6 GB, but give it time until people start using the other space (at that time probably there will be faster internet connection, but stfu)
if you have an .iso file of a ps3 game on ur hard drive , can u take that hard drive + hook that up to one of the usb ports + play the game.
will the ps3, read or load games from an .iso file?
let us know,
comments please
thanks
