To quote from LizZo on their latest PS3 Custom Firmware release, roughly translated:
Didn't you think we were giving you a hole ..? The PS3 is not yet dead, in fact we have a new Firmware as you know, the 4.86. And I think it's not even the last.
As always, we do our job for the community, releasing the Cybermodding Custom Firmware, the good old FERROX. Here we are to present you the new CFW FERROX 4.86, with integrated COBRA 8.20 functions.
We know that developer Aldo Vargas is working on a new version of COBRA, so it is not excluded that there will be other revisions of our FERROX too. Speaking of the CFW in question. There are no improvements in the system. It is practically equal to 4.85.
FEATURES OF THE CFW:
