hows the piracy on this thing?

>>383483131
use rebug cfw on a 3.55 ofw system
it's pretty easy

>>383483131

Find a job.

as far as I know you need a PS3 that had firmware 3.55 or older from the factory.

>>383483131
Fully pirated game.
Playing Persona 5 with no problem (100 hours of dissapointment)

>>383483247
you can still use an ODE on the new ones, albeit it's not as simple

>>383483330
3.55?
burned blurays or hdd
is it true you're limited to less than 4gb with external?

>>383483240
>t. sony shill

>>383483517
It doesn't offer what you can do with full CFW.

>>383483626
What can you do with full CFW?

Easy as shit.

>>383483240
Fuck off Sony kike.

>>383483806
can you load games from external hdd/sd

>>383483612
You can split PS3 files to get them on thd USB/HDD

Multiman automatically joins the files

>>383483883
Yes, I use a 64GB USB.

Use ps3tools from brewology to split files and other shit.

>>383483131
wow that console was ugly as hell

You can't anymore unless you pay like $150 extra to get shit to mod it.

>>383483990

>>383484047

Fuck off retard, I paid $50 to a guy to mod mine.

total shit, try to find any iso on torrents, everything is fucking dead

>>383484115
>send your shit to some random guy.

>>383484116
That's why you don't use torrents.

Use psnstuff, nicoblog, downloadgamesps3 and various other sites.

>>383484161
>shat are user ratings/reviews

You can also find someone on classified ads like craigslist to come do it.

>>383484267
so its not something you can just do from a pc

>>383484413
No, you'll have to downgrade.

whoa nigga

test

>>383484708
what about ODE?

>>383484115
there's a guy on ebay called downgradedude that did mines for $30. he downgrades your ps3 firmware and changes the thermal paste. shipped my PS3 to him, got it back after 3 days. works great on 4.81.2 rebug. used it to play tales of vesperia english patch

>>383485000
ODE requires opening up your PS3 and installing a modchip basically.

>>383483721
Homebrew (emulators, XMB mods, gameshark like cheat codes, translation patches, etc), play game backups/pirated games, load linux on your PS3, basically have full kernel access to the PS3.

ODE only lets you load game backups and a small fraction of homebrew works, the rest crash on black screen.

>>383483131
It's great. With a modded PS3, 360, PS2, PS1, and flashcarts for NES to N64, I will literally never need to buy another game again.

>>383484084
slims run much quieter and cooler and use a lot less electricity than the fats. they also have HDMI-CEC which lets you use your TV remote to control the PS3.

if you have CFW on slim, you can play PS2 games on it using the official emulator Sony uses for PS2 classics on PSN.

>>383483131
braindead easy if you own a 3.55 or less PS3.
gets more complicated after that.
