But back to the ps3 , hmmmm hack what does that mean ? Well im sure as help you idea of hacking is "OMFG FREE GAMES !" . That is wrong ! what this leads to in reverse engineering. This leads to understand how the playstation works. It took Geroge over 3 years and we still know very little. We need to find out how to fake signatures on the ps3. We need to take baby steps. He said he will release the hack soon but only time will tell. Free games are still a long way off. Its a lengthy process to rip playstation games , we dont even know if we can fake repacking them. All i can say for sure is that free games are a long way off.
no it took george only 5 weeks dude this guy i tell you is a genius
he is able to controll the prossecor and the os system supposably.
i heard that everything just about has to do with the os system like being able to have total control over the ps3 system its really difficult to understand but he hasent realesed the real exploit. and everybody whos first thought is PIRATED games thats not going to happen and that is the reason why he isnt realeasing the full exploit cause of the people that will try to abuse it but im hoping he will release some type of homebrew we can install to the os system!
but like you said about the signs and packing all games or mp files are signed by a RSA 2048 bit encryption so if there was a homebrew to run unsigned code and install games to the hdd that would only be the option...
