And don't wear it out.
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Recently, new games for PS3 have come out that require the 3.42 PS3 update or later. This was obviously a problem, considering the jailbreak only works on 3.41 or earlier.

But it's not a problem anymore.

Spanish hacker maquina07 has figured out a way to bypass the need for the newer firmware.

He hasn't released a tutorial yet, but has released complete proof that this works: You can download this PARAM.SFO and use it to play the new Medal of Honor game (which requires 3.42) while your PS3 is still running 3.41.

Apparently we can expect a full guide to making these modded .SFO's in a few days =D

I actually don't think this will be that easy to patch on Sony's part. Meaning, they wouldn't be able to patch it using a firmware update; instead, the game makers would probably need to start formatting the games in a slightly different way.

Of course that's just my guess, I could be wrong Happy

Yeah I saw this earlier today, pretty clever.

And no way to patch it so, =D

They could patch it for games that require 3.50 somehow, making the files different or something. We'll see. I just hope I can play GT5! But since that was delayed due to hackers, I have a sense I'm not going to be able to :(

A few things to note:

The game needs to be on internal HDD
The game will only work with a disc in the drive

If you use the USA version, use the param.sfo that is in it's own zip
EUR will have the param.sfo in the pack.rar

Copy the eboot.bin from the pack.rar and over write the one in your MOH folder (i did this using blackbox ftp after ripping the game to my internal drive with moh obm but the backup manager used to rip is irrelevant)

Copy the param.sfo and over write the one from your folder (use USA or EUR depending on version you have)

Install the OM 2.0 from the pack.rar, have it use /GAMEZ as the folder so it can see all your other games

Put a disc in the BD and start OM 2.0

Scroll down to MOH and press the SELECT BUTTON this will activate the patch to copy game data to the external HDD

Launch the game, go back to XMB and start game from DISC

Download will be available to 1.01,

After that it will install game data (took over an hour)

Thats it

OMFG THIS ISNT HARD FFS why does every flip shit over this its not a secret at all make a

Step 1) Backup the game

Step 2) Put the files on your PC

Step 3) Download a SFO editor

Step 4) Open the PARAM.SFO with the SFO editor and change 3.50 to 3.41 or lower

... its that simple ffs Not Happy or Sad this is possible with any new game that comes out for newer firmwares...
