Infamously-known world wide for his hacking abilities, console hacker GeoHot released an unauthorized code last week which allowed hackers to use illegal content on the PS3, tricking the console into thinking the software has been authorized by Sony.

Sony commented on the hacks earlier today:

Too much CL talk. I don't even play CoD anymore. I wish more people actually wanted to run some Homebrew rather than just put on patches for MW2 -.-

i've a question...


psp, wii xbox, ps2 , xbox360... None of the big3 has never got that angry as sony this time... why? probably because of porr relationship with 3rd party sh, which can be hardly damaged by gehoho move?

Do a barrel roll!
I don't see why Sony don't just give up, why can't they see that even if they win, it will just happen all over again. Other hackers will do exactly the same :L

sony actually can stop this.... all they need is the banhammer Smile or just simply ban all CFW users off ps3 which they will most likely be doing if they get to fed up with this
