(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So I found out I could play ps2 games on my ps3 using the CLASSICS PLACEHOLDER, but whenever I start it up, I get a beautiful black screen and it says my PS3 has turned off (my tv says there is no HDMI outputting but my ps3 is still on).

Firmware: DEX 4.75

Downgrading material used: Nor cable

COBRA Mode: Enabled

Toggle PS2 Emulator: COBRA

webMAN: DIsabled

Ive already done all the react PSN stuff as well.

Can you help me?? I'm about to buy a PS3 (jailbroken) and he asked me what firmware I want on it... I will be using it for black ops 2 and GTA.

What firmware would be best for me? Thanks

Well this doesnt answer my question, but I will answer yours. CEX is much easier and simple-er compared to DEX, but DEX allows you to use more types of mods, homebrews, and lets you get the most out of your PS3. If you have a USB thats past 4 gigs, just ask for a ps3 on 3.55 firmware. Then you will be able to install your own CFW and make it easier for yourself. So in the end Id recommend either DEX 3.55 or a 3.55 OFW PS3

Try a different emulator there are plenty of them brewology normally keeps up to date or just google ps2 emulator for ps3 and some roms won't work that's the hardest part I've found I do a lot of nes and it's hit and miss on the roms

Im pretty sure theres only 1 ps2 emulator.

The one I have is not classics place holder but when I get home I can tell u what it is

Just looked I just updated so everything came from rebug and can't remember what I had

I had your issue a while ago, I switched to an AV cord and it worked perfectly fine (playing The Simpsons: Hit and Run)

Uggg.. Im an idiot.... I think its because ps2 games cant be played in 1080p....

I just tried using an AV Cord, and it still doesnt work
