Hacking PS3 3Key Advice/Questions

[Oshae93]

So I'm going to get a ps4 soon and thought nows the time to buy a 3key, but i need a little help clearing things up

1. Should I choose 3key or is there a better brand?
2. Does the 3key work just fine without the dongle?
3. Is the ripper only for ripping the physical cd's you own?
4. Is it wise to play games online with the 3key?

This is the site i was going to get my 3key

Sony has blocked a majority of ODE devices. Cobra ODE are the only working, with a bypass method. Super Slim only.

I should be ok with 3key if i have my ps3 on a firmware before 4.55 right?

You don't. 4.60 killed ODE for 3k3y. 3k3y is dead.

You can't play 4.65 games unless you deal with swap discs and get a Cobra ODE. But it's probably cheaper to buy a slim.

I hear before we can change game's files and edit them for run on lower FW...!
is that trust?
anyone hear about that before...? or NOT?

That's only for CFW.

Your ODE will never work for games beyond 4.55.
