I think that's the problem with trying to "jailbreak" the PS3. Sony no doubt already own a large number of those PS3 Jailbreak tools so, every time an update or patch is released for it, they know within hours if not minutes how the new exploit works and how to cut it off. Thanks to their ability to make the PS3 practically unusable without the latest firmware, plus the likely outcome that the majority of games will now require a specific minimum firmware, Sony will always be able to make pirating on the PS3 far more hassle than it's worth.
It's admirable that people will continue to try to circumvent the PS3's protection, but they're optimistic if they think they can actually beat Sony. It isn't happening. They created an environment where they're in complete control. It's no wonder the 3DS will use a similar automatic/mandatory firmware update system.

Sony was always going to block these with a firmware update, and was always going require the firmware update to play newer games. So I really don't see what the big deal is.
It doesn't mean it will kill it, at the moment there's too much activity in the PS3 Homebrew scene for that to happen. There are still tons of exploitable consoles around, i'm tempted myself but the XBOX360 is still far superior in that respect and as I have 8 of those...

OK, and I suppose you have another neighbor who is "mental" and "dumb"? Seeing as how you called me that too.
BTW Schizoanalysis in not schizophrenia, it is something else entirely.
Read your posts again. You seriously flamed him and it was unwarrented, doesn't matter if you agreed with his post or not. He shouldn't have responded to those.
Maybe I was too harsh.
I just took issue with the following:
The article clearly contains misinformation.
He used this misinformation to support his condescending attitude toward Jailbreak owners.
This, I felt was falsely patronizing.

I do feel sorry for those that paid what was it, $130. But, they should have had the common sense to know what was going to happen. It was predictable.
Take a look at the XBOX360, their console was hacked wide open. That got patched, and it's people have now almost given up trying to find another exploit. I'm sure Sony are capable of doing a much better job of patching their console than MS can.

True, but $130 is still a bargain considering what you gain.
6-10 years ago flash kits cost over $100, that was normal.
But it was clear that the price would drop, anyone who shops at DX or PA knows that this sort of technology costs nearly nothing to manufacture. I also waited for the $30 knock-off version.

Gain what? If PSN and DLC get's cracked then maybe it's interesting, but until then it's not.Schizoanalysis said:
You can by a fully hacked XBOX360 for that, so I don't think $130 a bargain for something which cost very little to make. At $30 it's a good deal considering how easy it is to use, but not $130.
It seriously annoyed me how much these Jailbreak were trying to get out of people, it goes aginst the whole point.

I guess there are development costs to recoup... (& legal fees to pay: @ OzMods)
If the people have to money to pay $130, I guess it is up to them. This is small pocket change for some people. Or the price of 2-3 games in this country.
But it was clear that a cheap knock-off would come, just as it did with R4s, etc.

What's that got to with it? People who have these Jailbreaks and PS3's, are more than likely to have internet access. Otherwise how are they going to download their games?
When I say PSN, I don't mean online play just the online content. It's simply my opinion that I don't see the point of the Jailbreak unless you have all the PSN content and DLC. I don't just want the games, I want the DLC too, I want MAME or a similar emulator aswell.
I have no idea if they will be able to crack the PSN content.
Rydian said:
Then how do they download 8~50GB games?
As tk_saturn said, the only PS3 hack I'm interested in is one that lets you download and play PSN games for free. But since people can't even hack the DSi to let us play DSiWare games for free, the chances of anyone hacking PSN is mighty slim.
How about the people who do not care about online or DLC, people who just want the games or homebrew?
