Post: PS3 Games Start Shipping with Jailbreak-breaking Firmware
10-07-2010, 11:55 PM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Right now, the piracy and backup-enabling PS3 Jailbreak requires firmware 3.41 to be loaded on the PS3. Sony summarily released a new firmware, 3.42 that killed the exploit.

Now our options have been lessened even more.

Looks like new games will be shipping with the new firmware, rendering the Jailbreak useless. EA’s upcoming Medal of Honor has been confirmed to ship with, and require firmware 3.42. Attempts to circumvent the firmware requirement have thankfully proven fruitless, making it seem like Sony’s winning the cat and mouse game at the moment. Those who’ve tried have been greeted with a “80010019″ error message.

It’s pretty inevitable that all anticipated games from now on – Black Ops, GT5 and the like – will include similar protection, making PS3 Jailbreaker’s days of wanton thievery numbered.

what happens if you restore the default settings on a ps3? Shouldn't it bring the firmware back to the original from the manufacture?

The firmware will stay at 3.50. You cannot downgrade with that way.

I dont think you understand.

MoH just came out. In a few weeks, so will BLACK OPS and GRAND TURISMO 5. If they can load an anti-piracy system on a disc NOW then surely LATER releases will have it too.

So all hopes of pirating the newer, most anticipated and generally better games are broken!

My point exactly. I have now just had to update my console just to play MOH, The game is really good and not as stupidly easy as COD so it was worth losing the jaibreak for
