Do a barrel roll!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I have been playing ps3 for many years. I am on 4.20 firmware and I understand I cannot downgrade from this.
So the only other option is to buy a 3.55 firmware ps3? If this is the case would I need anything else with it or would I be good to go?
And all I really play is call of duty and fifa so in your opinion would it be worth it, yes I do play it a lot
Final thing can someone link me somewhere I could buy one safe. Thanks all help is welcome

Yeah but the e3 flasher alone is $80 I can't afford another ps3 along with that haha.

If you buy another PS3 that's FW 3.55 or below you don't need E3 Flasher.

Oh and do you know any where that sells these ps3's? I understand ebay probably has a few but anywhere that maybe it's blu ray player is broke or something and it would be much cheaper?

eBay is the best place to look for faulty PS3's.

But honestly if I cannot host mw2 lobbys off of one ps3 there is not much point in doing it for me.


"to host mw2 if you have only 1 ps3 that u succesfully downgraded with the E3 flasher you will need to install a cfw into it than install a file manager in ps3 and install the mw2 modded patch.. after to host it you will need to upgrade again ...Smile a think it gonna take long time like 20 to 25 to finish all ..."

Source : Five Star Gamerz - Hosting with E3 FLASHER You must login or register to view this content.

But When you go in to upgrade you must unjailbreak it (you might need an e3 card reader for this but im not sure) and delete all of the homebrew and backup managers.

You can host lobbies, just a pain in the ass to keep downgrading and updating.

Well I think I would be better off just getting a 3.55 firmware ps3 if it's that much hardship :/

Yeah so I would be better off getting a 3.55 firmware ps3? I've had a look on ebay but there prices seem so high when I have seen them sell for $100 before :/
