Might not be that bad. I just cant imagine a disc less future and consoles that can't be jailbroken. I went and bought physical copy of Star wars fallen order for £6. It's £60 on PSN despite being an old game now!!
Sony might have you believe that the ps5 pro recent discount was black Friday related but I'm sure it's more about consumers rejecting the absurd £700 launch price. Same with future PS6, in the end, the market will dictate whether an expensive console can exist or not.
First time that I'm Starting to feel like an old man yelling at clouds. So much about society that doesn't make sense outside of forums like these

The money scam has never made sense once in over twelve thousand years, but greedy humans keep using it to enslave the rest of us...

He talked about being made redundant while looking after family. Good news is they will now continue developing for the scene thanks to donations and recouping other monies. Because there are so few developers working on ps5 scene, if one person leaves or retires then it has big consequences. So I'm glad Zeco is doing a bit better now

I can understand his position. I'm also unemployed. it's been a hard time for me personally, so I can empathize. he does need to spend more time on himself. the scene will still be there later.

I wish I understood more of how these people find exploits in hardware so I could add anything I would find. But alas, this is far beyond what I understand. If I had extra funds, I'd throw some their way as these guys absolutely rock. I wish more people would be nice to these extraordinarily talented folks rather than be WEN, WEN, WEN. We've lost too many good people due to that mentality.

thanks. I wasn't sure if anyone agreed with me. I agree that a lot of people don't truly appreciate how much time these people invest to find exploits, develop homebrew, dump games, etc. with each new generation, it seems there are fewer and fewer people who care. not only is it harder to hack these systems, but more people expect you to deliver in a timely fashion, which is sad. I'm legit myself. I don't care if people pirate though. I just don't want the latest hacked, especially after what happened with the ps3. that was a disaster, because sony was totally unprepared. I also don't want pirates to have the same amenities a legit person would have while also not buying games, for those who only pirate. that's always been concern of mine. I simply don't think it's fair, and I think if I were pirating, I'd feel the same way. legit users don't deserve it. they've done nothing wrong.

I haven't seen "legit" users being treated any different from others. What do you mean?

I mean I don't think pirates should be able to use cloud or sync trophies or whatever. do you know what happened after the ps3 was hacked on the latest firmware? cheaters, people causing legit users to be banned by hacking their accounts, adding money to wallets, etc. that's completely unfair. like I and the other person were talking, a lot of people who pirate don't even donate to devs who make this possible to begin with. it's not like they're breaking the bank either, just $5. I just got a smart tv THIS YEAR, when a lot of these people have the means to donate but don't. I've donated over $100, and I barely get $600/month for all expenses, so there's no excuse for not giving a shit. those sorts of people don't deserve free games. they offer nothing in return. that is a fact.

Nobody on exploitable firmware can connect to PSN at least nothing that's public to let us do so. For the PS3, Sony was heavy handed with ban hammers to people who connected to PSN with a PS3 in jailbreak mode.

But with the PS4 and PS5, exploits are reported to Sony and patched before said exploit has the chance of being made public so unless Sony royally screws something up with firmware checks and accidentally makes it possible for people to connect to PSN while on an exploitable firmware, I don't we have to worry about cheaters online.

You aren't able to use cloud or sync trophies or whatever on the PS4 or PS5 because there's no custom firmware like on the PS3. So, perhaps it was unfair back at that specific era, but not currently as far as I know.

Hello, i just want to let you know that i will return my PS5 Pro next week because for me personally it is not worth it. The FW is 9.05 and if somebody can not find one on 9.05 but wants to have a PS5 Pro on the lowest FW possible, you can contact me. I am from Austria and would give it away for the same price i paid for it (+shipping if needed). I am struggling a bit to send it back knowing that it will be updated to 10.20 or higher

.

At one point I saw some eBay being listings for £600. I agree with you but I'd say the Pro is not worth it at the moment. Maybe in 3-6 months. Sony and third parties urgently need to clarify what's games are getting pro patches because there is a lot of confusion on this subject. Some games got patches but then didn't use PSSR. Others like Allan wake 2 and Star wars Survivor have artefacts or frame rate issues.
The Ps5 Pro has potential but it was rushed to market and it annoying that older games require individual patches rather than naturally improving like a pc game does when you simply upgrade it's ram or GPU.

Right, but when the PS6 comes out. How many people will buy it, when it could drop considerably in price in a week?

Deflation is the worst thing you can ever do.

Can you explain why this is interesting for this thread ? Is there some reference to kernel crashes or something?

With FOMO as high as it is and the helping hand of scalpers... I don't think people will remember anything, sadly

Most of the recent talk so far has been about the PS5 Pro. And this relates to the PS5 Pro.

People will remember, this has destroyed their chance of a successful console launch

It’s interesting to note issues with a console that may be jailbreakable one day.

I have the Pro and have found a few issues here and there in some games, which is going to happen but overall the compatibility is great and the upscaling is incredible.

If ps5 pro was jailbroken at launch, pretty sure that scene developers would flicked a couple of switches, changed a line of code and most of these problems would have been fixed by now

ccfman2004 · 2024-11-19T10:19:57+0000

Sometimes I think Sony is purposely either adding some of those game bugs in or not fixing them before launch just to see if any hackers jailbreak it right after launch so they can fix that silently while also stating they are fixing those game issues to get people to update. That could just be my internal conspiracy theory generator acting up.
