Do a barrel roll!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ok, so the PS3 in the breakroom where I work has a broken disk drive...wont read a disk is in there. So, I thought I might as well install 3.55-kmeaw on it. I mean, it's not connected online anyway. So, I did it and everyone was happy that we could play games again...Epic co-op sessions on "Dead Nation" have boosted employee morale :hitman:...installing PSN games via .pkg files is a cool trick and all but, I also wanted to install some actual titles too. So using the latest version of multiMAN with shadow copy and DeanK's EBoot.fix tool I put "Farcry 2" on there to launch from XMB...I figure no one would know how to use the multiMAN anyway, so this is the best way. But, I attempted to do this with "Crysis 2" and it just black screened on me...I know how to "fix permissions" and do all the stuff for the APP_HOME aption to work, but it just wont start. Now I know there are some games that just refuse to start with-out a disk, but is there maybe a better way to know which ones will start disc-less like a list somewhere....or maybe a different backup manager I could use?
