Update: Too many cry babies in the scene… Anyway, apparently the TIF exploit was discovered by H3R3T1C. Which is fine, props to you H3R3T1C for finding such an exploit. However, just for clarification purposes, the paragraph below is written by me — it was not said by anyone else, thus stolen. How quickly the tables turn.
These guys could be on to something… Chase_Lambeth and Team PS3 Hacks have discovered some odd behaviour which may potentially lead to playing backed up blu-ray games. Copying a specifically crafted tif image to a USB stick, and attempting to open it seems to cause the PS3 some confusion… While the console remains responsive to controls, you’re able to browse the XMB and launch a game. The game won’t fully launch allowing time for a disc swap. Once swapped, remove the USB stick, and the new game boots — no errors! For a clearer understanding of the said procedure, watch the video…
This potential TIFF exploit has been tested on firmwares 1.31, 1.80, and the latest, 1.90. Further testing is underway, stay tuned for updates.

FINALLY!!!!! FIRST POST!!! LOL just kidding
seriously…FINALLY…a REAL exploit…but…but…but…where is this elusive Tiff file? Is there a download yet?
wtf..
The .TIF file has yet to be released to the public.
why not release it? if you are worried it may be unsafe, just put a notice on there for people to use at their own risk. Its safer to do that than to have people try creating their own versions of what kind of Tiff file they are left assuming it may be. Props to you on finding this by the way, you rock.
Because then Sony has a heads up to start fixing the exploit and will release a patched firmware.
dude i know like 3 sites where i can download it dont be an idiot. torrentleech.com is one
when can we expect it
There is not only 1 .tif image, there are 2.
so do you not have a backup bluray to try it with?
If you make the tiff file public then someone out there with a backup can try this?!!
Well done!!
part of the .tif is released without our modifications.
is it a copyright issue? if you cant modify it and redistribute it maybe you can give us a guide as to where to find the file and how to mod it
where? hmmm maybe it the psp tif just a wild guess though im probly wrong and why not try swapping ps2 games with a copy of ps2 game as it should be hard im sure someone in the hacks team has i dvd burner in thier comp. as it is common and all u need is alcohol… to copy the game that would be a start…
Rapidshare that sucker
does it also work with PS2 & PS1 games?
one can only hope. then that damn region coding bullshit will finally be resolved
Come on release a RAR already. your acting like it will never come out. whats to stop you ? GO!!GO!!GO!!GO!!
RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRR!!!!!!! hahahaha RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRR!!!!!
release it!! :-P
FAKE! didnt show what to do once the folder was opened zoom in/out during loading of oblivion so the vid of normal obliv loading could be merged with the one of the usb disk scene. FAKE! none of the other ps3 sites are showing this for good reason. poor attempt by a rarely updated site to get some hits
damn, this just got posted like 5 minutes ago. the guy is even online right now responding to comments. give him a break, he might be legit. just because of that one fat comic book geek in the spandex on youtube with the fake exploit, now its like every time someone releases a possible exploit video, people are all like “oooh fake fake look at this look at that”. the reason its not on other sites yet is because hes part of Team PS3-Hacks…thats THIS SITE. Its all happening right now and its happening here first.
lol another failed attempt to get hits to your site greg. lame loser
Wow, do you have no life where all you can do is make fun of Greg? Get a grip on reality, not everything is how you want it.
losty, I myself have replicated this with the tif files. It does work, but we (PS3 hacks team) are working on it still and we need to clean it up. If you don’t know what’s going on, don’t call BS.
…please? tiff file…? pretty please? with sugar on it?
I have ps3 with 1.51.fw cro (eu) end when I play FIGHT NIGHT ROUND 3 I have some exp…
im going to go commit suicide now. its your fault for teasing me with this Tiff file :-P
I like all ps3 owners have had my leg/heart strings pulled tooo many times. If this is real then Im sure i am not the only one that feels seeing is believing. saw the other vid on utoob with the exploit.tiff / test.tiff 1.52 k or something for exploit. If this is real release it so people with blu ray burners can try out backups i no (if this is real) that u will be worried they will steal credit (as many sites will do) but understand the majority of the people frequenting these sites are used to that shit and will see that u guys did it (ps3news at least will def give credit). If this is real there is no point in holding back, sure feel free to give a para-dicks type excuse of u dont want it patched but the truth is even if it is (and this is real) that homebrew which could be possibly derived from this exploit (inject some code into the file thats hanging the system (if there isnt already some)) will make it easier to find exploits in future fws as currently those of us trying (and trying hard) to get exploits up and running dont no if they are crashing/exploiting it as theres no code to try and inject.
OPEN SOURCE!
get all the ps3 dev’ers out there to help if this is real, and IF ITS NOT i truly hate you guys.
if ur lying im gonna b pretty damn pissed off…. if not i will get down on my knees and give u a blowjob… if u are lying im gonna cut off ur geeky cock
GOOD JOB
or else motherf*cker
wow, that a very good exploit this team as come up with, well done you guys, but when will u release the rxploit for us? :D
wow relax guys, dont put them too much pressure. They’ve just found a possible exploit and they want to try and get it themselves. If anyone has a backed up bluray game, apply to the team to be an exploit tester and im sure they’d love to collaborate with you in order to get it working.
Download it here http://tinyurl.com/2qwtnm
none of those links are working for me. damn Sony ninjas got rid of it pretty fast
OMG, If this is real. I wonder if it would pass the whole Region Code crap. If it does then my dream has come true :D, I might even be able to finish me “F.E.A.R” game, ever since I updated my PS3 I wasnt able to do the “Resistance” disk swap thing. Keep Up the good work guys and I look forwards to using your exploit :D
1 thing has any1 seen the prices for a blu ray burner yet, it fukin mental
id kill for 1
I’m NOT a PS3 owner, but I have often looked at PS3-hacks.com to see how the scene is going, but, i’ve noticed that some PS3 back-up files are like 7GB and stuff, i’ve seen a few on Torrent sites that size, now it seems that If you could dump the game onto a computer (not sure if that part has been done yet) then you could create an ISO out of the game and burn to a Dual Layer DVD-R…like I say, i do not own a PS3 and i can’t test this in anyway…
why woukd you download them when you can rent them for like 2 bucks from blockbuster. lolz
“this video is no longer available”
but anyway finally real good news !
this one works http://youtube.com/watch?v=VmubHrHMLRQ
ty yann for video
ah…this would not break my ps3 would it ?
no. just make sure you dont put your hand thru it lolz
you know how the ps3 hdd is removable what if you partition it on the ps3 and then put the hdd in a laptop and install a OS on one of the partitoned parts.
and you can also use the install other os screen to use the kboot to use commands to open up other things
I don’t get it, you load the tif. image, then start the game, what means? What for to load the tif. image to start the game? If you said load the tif. image and can play the back-up dics, then how we know that the disc on the video clip is an original disc or back-up disc? pls explain… im noob
The game was never swapped, you still launched the original game that was in the drive when you removed the memory stick.
1- thats a different video
2- they are just demonstrating the glitch. i agree they should have demonstrated the disc swap element of it, but i think they were in a hurry to get another video up
i have tested it with the tif file from ps3-n..s.com and it works fine on FW 1.90
I have tried this exploit. I tried to switch my “Ridge Racer 7″ To “F.E.A.R” but it just hanged after the you see the PS3 Logo thing. I get the same results as this video if I just leave my game in :P. Can’t wait to see the finished version of this exploit!!!
do those games have different firmware requirements?
by the way, why hasnt anyone made a site that lists all the games with what firmware updates they use? that would be so helpful for those of us who want to avoid getting games we cant use if we dont want to update
i try it with FoM burn copy and it takes me back to XMB with error
good try tho
ps3-hacks keep workin hard ya might get it
and i have 2 ps3
i tryed it on the lowest FW and nothing happen but error
good luck
Yeah Same here
good luck at this. I have my fingers crossed
good luck, hope to see the finished product soon.
im back once again
and this time with good news
i try it with my ps3 open swaping it! not ejectin it!
and it work
for those of you that dont know how to open the ps2 i know there is a thread here on this website how to open it so read that
3 disc of blank blueray are 17 dollars man thats alot for those
but yea ima try with other games now
I did exact the same thing as on Youtube.com but than with 2 orgininal ps2 games. It worked ,than i tought im goin to try putting a burned game then i get error , so i dont think this is trick for playing backups because u can even swap dics but the ps3 still reads it’s burned. We must find the peace of Xmb that says “mmm let me see it’s a backup game , error!”. or add a file to your backup game from the originail that says “im a orgnial PS disc”
sorry im telling it like a child but my english is bad so this whas the only opties to make it clear, i hope u can use this info.
i wish codein was that easy lolz
so, what about swap magic technique? is that PS3 still reads it’s as a burned? i dont think so
so you can now boot backups?
No, you cannot boot your backups yet. This is just a proof that we are finally a little bit closer to hack the ps3.
Great job boys! What do you think, can we boot any backups with the final version of this exploit?
Uhm.. sure we can!!! Geez, what kind of a question is that? Let the team work first!
Keep up the good work!
I’m on 1.50 EU firmware,
I put the file to the memory stick as instructed (PICTURE/Test.tif), and the PS3 does show the loading icon when in the photo – memory stick menu. but when I go to the game menu and launch the game (rfom), it immediately starts.
what am I doing wrong?
you have to copy that file and rename it so you have to tif files… then it will work
OK, I have the Test.tif file, I copy one and rename it to Exploit.tif, put them both in the PICTURE folder and still the same thing happens…
press triangle on the usb device you use, go to information press circle and now it should work
uh, video not available…
ps3 hacks suk dik, they didnt even release the tiff file, ps3newz is wer da shot is at, these lot just copy everything that they do
Nice that somebody listened to me. I discovered a .tiff exploit on the second day after release. I popped my memory stick from my psp that included (for psp)a downgrader and devhook that both used a .tiff exploit. It works in the PS3 with original firmware. Nobody cared then, why should I give a shit now? What do you care about loading your psp games on your ps3 anyway?
I’m really sad to discover that this News is actually old, i thought you said you guys discovery it, but PS3hex have that 4 about 10 days. really disappointed with PS3hacks its been my favor always but i guess is time to look for something more royal to the true. PSPhacks still the best yet 4 psp…. so long liers. thats the post on PS3hax with the file to download http://www.ps3hax.net/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=item56
We never took credit for the .tif exploit so all you damn noons get it right.

A file is not stolen when it is released to the public, just b/c we made something out of it does not mean its stolen. dumbass. And we did NOT take credit for this .tif exploit so get it right dumbass!
Chase, Microsoft’s website is a public website for all to visit and view — but if I copied their entire website and just changed the name, wouldn’t that be stealing???
I dont know why you guys (as in the REAL PS3 hackers) are wasting your time arguing with these dumbasses on these sites over dumb shit. Just do what you do best and shut them up with performance!!
Oh yea just a side note to you all I played Madden last nite on ps2 and may I be the first to say that the shit is SSSIIIICCCKK so I know the PS3 version will make you blow your load!
stop flaming them, were one step closer to a hack, its nice to see something from them just one step closer to a hack.
Did everybody just completely disregard the guy who said he got his PS3 back to work!?

Oh, and he also was trying to say PS3 instead of PS2.
fuck you all fuckin’ assholes motherfuckers
i tried it with a original ps2 game and entred an ps2 backup and i got an error.
OH MY GOD HAVE YOU NOT REALISED THAT WE CAN NOW BOOT COPIES!!??!?!?
ps1 games work fine!!!!

that is the file for the xploit!!!!
ps3-hacks sucks stealer chase you dummy you said your not releasein it and then it been out you sucka
i have seen the videos, of this exploit, nd i totally dont get it, does dis mean i will need a blu-ray burner? (fuk)!…i am hopin load the gams up frm external HDD ? (if thats possible wiv this exploit)…im a noob at this..sorii !
Video removed!!!!!????? Why???????
that not even a ps1 backup dummys man ya stupid
have you got ps3 game backups working or not?
i have tested the ps1 backups, i can confirm that this …………….. DOES NOT WORK!!! it is just a freeze in loading a image.
cause it was proven, the disc inserted in the video is not a back-up. It’s a pressed disc. The disc is a Breaker Pro. Look up a Breaker Pro disc label and look at the label of the so-called “Back Up” of the video. Notice something?
Just wait for final version!
There’s no point saying “this does not work”, “can’t play my backups ” or something because this TIF is there to prove it’s possible!
Orr.. xD
Too bad it’s FAKE, kids.
DarkinShadow, STOLEN, xJason, ps3boy and anybody else who is cussin these guys… You lot are pr!cks…. Give them a brake, at no point did they take credit for it so why don’t you just chill out. Who cares if they created it or not. Their just here to share the info and thats what their doing. Just appreciate the fact that it’s here for us to see. How can you guys moan when all your doing is sitting on your a55es not helping the cause. RELAX AND ENJOY!
ooooooo looks its a home made swap magic look alike someone know try a ps2 game or ps3 game download it from mininova or game Games Torrents .com
i love boobs lol my names pratish hi pratik
your a faget……. you try doin somthing for the ps3 bitch
ur fagget stop hating bitch stupid twat
Fuck this is crazy… i just boot up HDAdvance (dvd 1.00)on PS3 1.9 and it work… but i got a message saying: HDadvance is not compatible to this version of PS2, Sorry… is this something? i wish hackers could take a look on this… i’m just a regular guy messing around.
i tried it, these two different parts that freeze. theres one where the waves keep on moving, and the next one is where its just a black screen. i tried to do the disc swap with ps2, ps2 backup, i couldnt try with a ps3 backup game because i don’t have a burner
blu ray burner
around tomorow afternoon ill get back to u guys if burnt games work…. gonna try a burnt PS2 game or something on a dvd…. pray to God, Allah or who ever for it to work if it doesnt ill say it doesnt

expensive , backups can be made right know via linux or new win xp edition for ps3 not sp3
thanx for the real hackers for beta there release
at least stupids beleive them now.
ottom@n team is making real isoloader and it will
be realeased 9-9-2007 wait a few days
this site is the best belive me
Windows XP for PS3!? Send me a link!!!!!!
Sorry everyone, but heres the bad news:
“Guys, it’s fake.
All that’s happening here is that the TIFF image has been CORRUPTED to the point that it screws with the PS3’s disk mounting function and locks out any other disc mounting until the stick is removed. It’s not going to let you magically play backups. All the validity checks/verification are still in place.
The “exploit” creator, H3R3TIC, is a failed PSP hacker who attempted to use a nonexistent PNG exploit to make a downgrader for PSP firmware 2.71.
The TIF image isn’t even VAGUELY valid. Not a single byte is an actual TIF file. He just did cat /dev/urandom > Test.tif for a second or two.
The boy is an idiot, flat out, and he does not know how to program. At all. He just hex edits files until they’re so screwed up that he thinks he’s somehow made an exploit.
His site is homebrew271.googlepages.com, where you can see just how much of a failure he was.”
About the disc that was used: “i own that supposed “backup” disc. its called breaker pro, and its just like swapmagic, but for ps1. its not an officially licensed game, and the cover of the disc could pass for a backup disc.” Sorry everyone. I was so excited for a moment.
Alin Almasan you are right, it can be a TIF file that is corrupted so much that it freezes the blu-ray drive until the memory stick/ usb is removed, but also leaves a Vulnerability in that freeze that can lead to a future iso loader or some sort of dev hook like the psp.
I told you this is the way to load your psp homebrew, games, and apps. Anything that can be ran by EBOOT files can be ran on the ps3 with the “correct” .tiff exploit. And if anybody is paying attention I have loaded it straight from memstick in my ps3 and it works. I didn’t do anything except take my card out of my psp and put it in ps3. Looked at files and went to photo-.tiff exploit started without pressing anything. From there I have menu. Select Devhook and load up your psp games on your ps3. I wonder if anybody gives a shit, because I’ve been trying to post this since last November when the PS3 came out and this site had been here collecting dust. Nobody listened then, nobody’s listening now. At least I have my ps3 Exploited, not hacked as I did nothing to my firmware. Did I mention somebody REALLY should look into this more? get your psp files, games, programs on ps3-doesn’t that make booting backups easier? You can make about anything for the psp, so do that and get it to run on ps3 as psp file type using the .tiff and bam! You make the programs, I use them well…
Oops, I forgot to mention use Eboot loader for psp with the .tiff exploit. Not the .tiff that’s new for ps3, the old school psp .tiff that’s needed for Eboot loader for psp firmware. I swear fucking try it! I really would like to come back to this site and see somebody at least tried to work at this. I’m for real, since late November 2006 I’ve known this and there is a lot you can learn by going back to when the psp first got hacked. All I’m trying to say is I want somebody to take a closer look at this .tiff and eboot loader. Try it, love it, and then we can start with the good hacks!
I tried and does not work
But I tried to mention this in November 2006 and now they’re saying this is new? I pointed them in the right direction and was ignored. This could’ve been developed last year…And to ALIENWARE-did you put .tiff from psp on memstick? run .tiff with bootloader-list of programs on memstick should appear on tv. run devhook.
as amusing as it’s been to watch you get all pissed off at people for ignoring you, I believe you and I’m on your side on this. I’ll try this out and let you know what I did and what happens. Chances are nothing will work but it might. What version FW are you running? I have a Japan unit v1.02
oh and the reason i dont think it will work is just because so far this tiff file hasnt done much of anything for me, so im starting to think maybe this first gen Japan unit may be MORE secure than the ones released in the US. I dont know how, but it seems that way. Either that or the exploits might turn out to be in different places.
hey which PSP Tiff Eloader are you talking about? I think there are several of them. I’m about to try Marzenbier v0.9.9
I tried that and hen280. Sadly these didnt work, but I did learn something interesting. Before, I couldnt get the Tiff file to show up and do anything unless I changed the extension to .jpg, and when I tried loading up a usb stick with the eloader files, the same thing happened. So I found something cool. If you go to “Photo” and select your USB device without clicking on it, you can click on the triangle and then on “Display All” and you will have access to all the files that previously showed up invisible. I found that clicking on even the folders containing .exe files will give me the same ‘exploit’ result as I did when I clicked on the Tiff file that is being praised so much right now. Every single one of those files that the PS3 cant interpret tend to hang the unit a bit when you try opening them, so they never quite load and a little circle thing appears in the top right corner like its trying to load or something. Thats about all that happens with mine.
Oh baby. You know what this means? New firmware from Sony! Holler!
Hopefully the’ll release 2.0 instead of messing about with 1.91, 1.92 etc…
sorry if u guys are already doing this but i was thinking if u wan2 play ps3 backup, first u freeze the ps3 using original ps3 game and then swap for a backup ps3 game. If u wan2 play ps2 backup, first freeze original ps2 game and then swap for backup. Same for ps1 games.
And has anyone tried this on an NTSC-J(hong kong) 60Gb Ps3???
Kinda defeats the object for most people
what i meant was using a ps3 original game X to crash then putting in ps3 backup Y. Or ps2 original X and backup Y…
right will somebody please help, im so confused now. can we play ps3 backups wif we swap discs, without ejecting the game? (take your ps3 apart) or not yet? didn’t ghettomex say that’s what he did to get it working?
ps3 hacks used old info as their own, what pussys
ps3-hacks sucks let goto ps3news
fake faker fakest absolutly nonsence
yo guys check this out i was on mininova last night
and look what i found http://www.mininova.org/tor/836456 does it look ligit
becuase the otheros self is the same 1,320KB but the otheros.bld looks modifide because usually the file is 3,170KB but in this folder its 2,390KB….. guys just check it out….
stupid bastard we have all seen that before stop trying to act innocent bitch!!!! and learn english fucker
Does this method work with a PS2 backup ?
Can I swap an original PS2 DVD with a backup copy ?
Hey Guys, I’ve got my F.E.A.R game working on my Japanese PS3 AGAIN!!!!!! My F.E.A.R game only works on Australian PS3 so I get some stupid Video Setting Error but now with this TIF Exploit I can finally play the game again!!!!! Has any1 tried to use a Legit Copy of a PS1/2 NTSC to PAL Swap? Will it work?
Nope, i tried them and it just gave me an error code.
IT WORKED GREAT….
STEP BY STEP GUIDE:
YOU NEED:
PAL PS3 60GB VERSION
FRIMWARE 1.50
PUT THE TIFF IN USB IN THE FOLDER PHOTOS & INSERT ORIGINAL PS1 GAME GO ON THAT TIFF PHOTO FROM PS3 WATI 10 SECONDS THEN START THE ORIGINALK GAME
THE PS3 WILL NOW CRASH…. THEN REMOVE THE ORIGINAL PS1 GAME AND PUT PIRATED PS1 GAME AND WAIT 10 SECONDS THEN REMOVE THE USB AND IT LOADS PĠERFECTLY…
GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!
FINALY THE FIRST HACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you post a video? It works with PS2 copies???
IN QJ YOU FIGURE AS A LIER…..
LIER……
LIER…..
DO YOU HAVE PROVE’S?????
SONIBOY SON OF A BICTH, ALSO WHAT A STUPID NICK!!!!
FINALY YOU ARE THE FIRST ASSHOLE OF THE PS3 OWNERS!!!!!
Wow, you have the absolute worst spelling ever. Try spellcheck, or learn english. Fucking non-speaking bitch.
i’ve ps3 jap fw 1.90 not work ps2/psx game
retur to xbm and error code T_T
sonyboi, what sort of brand disk did u use to burn the ps1 game to disk? wb thanks
my hold game psx….the game in psx console
work perfect…..
Does this also act as a FW bypass so you can play games requiring higher FW?
tiff exploit seems to work, jus need to get hold of an copied blu-ray to see what happens.
THE EXPLOIT LETS YOU PLAY THE UPDATED FIRMWARE GAMES IF YOUR SYSTEM FIRMWARE IS OUTDATED?
GOOD QUESTION!
my god i must of been drunk writing in that grammer… “if your systems firmware is out of date, use the exploit — would if let you play the updated firmware game?”
Does not work on a FW v1.70 just gives a error But i have only tryed PS2 games have not tryed PS1
ALL THE SHIT IS A LIE, JUST PS3 SWAPPING…
M33 HELP TO IMPROVE THE EXPLOIT!!!, TIME TO PROVE THAT YOUR BEST THAN DAX
Yo Greg or someone at ps3-hacks can we get a new updated article on what really is going on…basiclly just a progress update because there are tons of people on here saying different things…PLEASE and THANK YOU!!!!!
well said Kassim, we need an update, asap
You know, this means that with a little bit of work, it may be possible to create a flasher homebrew that is burnt to a BD-R and flashes custom fw to the PS3….you never know.
I tested in my ps3 but only works to boot another original game,I boot silent hill 3 by swaping sh4.It’s only a matter of time to discover how to boot backups,give them TIME.Good thongs happens to those ho wait
BUT its the last thing the ps3 sony are in debt by along way
the ps3 is super expensive
the games are a stupid size even when compressed
so it would take tooo long downloading them
seriously at least till sony isout of debt and has overtaken the wii or 360 no one should use this
or we might say goodbye to the playstation brand altogether
I don’t think this is something that should have ever been posted. It is pointless and hardly an exploit. I think this website and any other website that posted this should have just not and saved themselves the crazy morons that have nothing better to do but wait for hacks on a system that will probably never be hacked due to such good security.
Sony troll
You are a stupid as your nickname, there won’t be ever a perfect system!!!! Asshole
ok dudes
who try this tiff with
ps2
or
ps3
or swaping between ps3 with ps2 or ps1
jus tried it with ps2 games no luk get error
DOES ANYONE READ THE COMMENTS!! HOW MANY TIMES DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO SAY THAT THIS DOES NOT WORK FOR PS2 AND PS3 GAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS A PROOF OF CONCEPT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT MEANS THAT IT IS MEANT TO SHOW THAT THIS CAN BE USED IN THE FUTURE!!!! FUTURE!!!!! CALM DOWN EVERYONE!!!!!!!
*breathes* ok?
im gonna try to isolate the exploit and create a new exploit… instead of a shit load of garbage code we could have one main one that could be used alot easier… get back to u soon
yeah this really shouldnt have been hyped so much as a successful disc swap exploit. it doesnt work at all with any combination of discs i’ve tried. but i do notice there is an exploit, something is definitely happening here. i think it pretty much does the same thing as the RFOM exploit, except its not limited to blu ray games. i’d love to see what gets done with this. we could be on the threshold of another golden age of gaming like when the PSP first got hacked. its a very exciting time and i am totally anxious to see what happens, but i’d rather wait and let those who are working on this thing have the time they need to get it done right.
Em… sorry, but can anyone tell me, what does this thing do? i have no idea about it, thanks in advanced.
wow obviously most people aren’t even reading this. says could lead to, swap ps3 discs, nothin about backups……………..seperate head from a$$ read and all they are sayin is they got it to stall. has anyone else been able to get anything close like this? nope . Great job and more power to ya
This is a hack…..so stop moaning its useless…..
I understand from actually reading about it and not just bitchin that it so far……
1) lets ps1 backups play
2) has helped people play NTSC games on PAL systems that they could not play previously
3) COULD have the potential to lead to a hello world!
i think any hacks no matter how minor are a start.
All you people saying its useless just go ahead and put the new sony FW on your PS3 when it comes out and no doubt overides this exploit.
Me? now this is out i am staying on current firmware for a bit.
personally i am happy to buy my games. i am paying £40-45 for a game and this is only a tiny bit more than what i payed for Sonic 2 on the mega drive all that time ago!!!
I would like to see this exploit used to let any US Blu-Ray movie play on PAL UK so i can import more movies and id like to see a DIVX/XVID player for PS3.
JP such an Asshole, maybe you have enough money, there are countries where the incomings are 100USD, and do you think that i can have more than one game per month and for example each one cost you 100$.
THE EXPLOIT JUST LET YOU SWAP JUST PS3 GAMES!!!
JP because someone used to use your ass you don’t have to do it now, but i think you like it!!!
So can anyone confirm this will load backup ps3 games on blu ray discs?
i said i am personally happy to buy games, i understand many people will be wanting this for a potential loader. I am pointing out that this exploit is a step in the right direction.
By the way thanks for calling me a asshole……..that coment was about as grown up as the rest of your contribution to this thread.
i am a tool
centauro i like it when its your daddy ;)
lol, ok I started let’s put all aside, just ps3!!!, sorry man.
nice job man :)
OMG did you guys listen to the sounds he made? ROFL they where hilarious.. like: ‘qeeugh qah!’ and then a big’ GQEEUUGH!’ at the end!
HAH! Classix
The PS1 swap thing didnt work for me. Just gives me an error and it goes back to the XMB.
So someone found a way to crash the ps3… well congratz
go buy an xbox 360
no it’ll probably break on me, and even if it didn’t i’d only use it as a radiator =D
hahaha, I went through ten of them, got an Elite-works great. If it’s not “elite” it WILL break! couldn’t agree more about the radiator. lol
DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME…..IT DOES NOT WORK!!!!!!! i have tested on 1.9 ps1 game several times
i use my ps3 as a portable toilet… is that an exploit?
it’s not supposed to work
I Tested it on normal PS3 and on PAL PS3 FM 1.90. on Normal it dont work for me but on a PAL PS3 it Work but only PS1 Games.
I already have a way that DO play ps2 and ps1 backups so I dont need the exploit, just for ps3 backups
If what are you saying it’s real, how do you do ti??? or you are a simple lier Philip
swap magic it is
lol ok Yoda
HAY COOL GOT TO WORK ON 1.90 PAL AUS PS3
SWAPS WORKS FOR PS1 PS2 PS3 & BLUE-RAY MOVIES THANK YOU.
holly shit it worked for me to ps3 1.50 60 gig im swaping ps ps2 ps3 backups.
Japan PS3 1.02 none of it works, just slows it down slightly. The boot becomes inevitable after a few seconds, whether I take out the USB drive or not. When a disc swap does seem successful, I get boot error messages (they have seperate codes for the various formats- PS1, PS2, and PS3 games, and for cds/dvds I think.)
Jerks.. This is fake. Doesnt work the CD being swaped in the video is a breakerpro 1.1v pressed cd. Get over it.
breakerpro?
i just looked it up. pretty cool but it seems like it only works for backed up PS1 games.
keep dreaming people the ISO loader or the Blu-Swap is not gonna come OUT!! , so save some Money & Buy , Ninja Gaiden , Lair , Resistanmce , Motor Storm or Heavenly Sword and Stay Quiet
Not forgetting Warhawk out in US on 28/8 and Europe a coule of weeks after.
Thats the big game we’re all waiting for.
Warhawk is so gay. it looks like Time Pilot, which was a fun arcade game ‘back in the day’ but its nothing to get this excited about on a new system.
do you want to bet?
those games suck. GTA FOREVER!!!!
and who gonna develop it?? YOU!!! LOL , shut up centauro , if you buy a console just to play backups better go and get a wii or a 360 and stop crying here. i hope that the iso loader come out when SONY , recover the money lost on the first 2 years of PS3 on the Market.
PD. I´m a Proud Sony fan boy
I’d just like to be able to play my copy of FF12 INT on my ps3. Even FFX and FFX2 INT. Sure I have Swap Magic, but that means having to use my PS2. Could have helped us out a bit and got rid of PS2 region lock TBFH.
this shiot is some fuken dum ass fukin gay ass shit. its a fuken tiff file da freezes the fuken thing up nothjing works ppl who say da shit works is fukin lying their balls of. this shit suk mad balls. i bet u if dark alex m33 an dem other good haker do dis shit they get an iso loader in 3 sec. bu a fuken tiff file da freezes the game boot screen to swap disc . did u noe u can fuken take a game out while ur playin it an put in another cd ? TAP DIS BONG ASS HOLES
i can da neva undastand wat u is sauyin man you is some fuked up lunchin foo
me sa likes what he say even tho me sa don kno what he sayin!! hahah
all the way! lol
i have a simpsons xbox 360 the limited edition i’ll trade for a elite
Cloning Clyde? I played that game for days on end and I even had all achievements for it before the contest. I have an Elite, but you’d have a way better chance of making profit on Ebay.
forget da shit get windows to run on d ps3
if you have nothing intelligent to contribute, then shut your fucking mouth.
it’s a small step in the correct direction. i hope this will lead to something fun in the future.
i be chillin n illin with mah bros homie we is tha L33T HaX0rZ ombewo b;lah b;ah bisha b;ah bisha boo b;ah b;lah taijrgwopr graaagr snargle brlarhsgh
(im not really ‘tapdisbong’ i just thought it would be funny)
it work for me, that’s great
does it play ps2 backups?
no, it does not play ANY-backups at this time. in the future it could be used for that though.
it does if you take your ps3 apart, and dont eject the disc but swap it, atkeast i think thats what other people were saying
i don’t know if that’s with this, but that’s what you do with swap magic, you run it, then you select to run the a game, but you do this after taking the top off the PS3, and then pull out the swap magic disc then put in your burnt disc, and your set.
ok
can this thing can run any backup for
ps1,ps2,ps3
well ur the great satan, i think u can run everything.
ok…read the comment above yours…that will answer your question.
U CAN RUN EVERYTING WHAT YOU WANT IDIOTS
NO YOU CAN’T YOU FUCKING IDIOT
so i cant run any packup
so why thy leave the file here
NO YOU CAN’T RUN ANY BACKUP. ONLY ORIGINAL GAMES
if anybody is going mexico pik up one of these X-GAMES 360 or POWERSTATION 2 LLOLLL
http://www.gamingbob.com/2007/08/16/broke-howbout-an-x-game-360-or-powerstation-2/
TAP DIS BONG
HOW MANY IDIOTs IS here and read this bulshit and think it’s work ?
Im sure Dark_alex do something
if dark alex and team m33 work together im sure they get it done in 3 min.
dark alex quit the psp scene because of sonys grimaces to ps3 hackers, i somehow doubt he would start work on the ps3
I think Dark Alex was probably some scared kid that just turned 18 and is now afraid of the accountability that comes along with reaching the age of majority.
Well, i think its meaningles, because Sony will patch this flaw on the next firmware updates. This is basicaly the problem behind the hackers not releasing a hack (iso loader or other) till today. The PS3 is future prof and hacker prof too, unfortunately. Dark Alex dont have any reason to continue on the scene cause he have his image too explored by the scene and by the noobies of the scene, and the risk was too eminent for him to be arrested by the FBI (maybe he was already under investigation, who knows). The point is, lets forget about DA, and lets not make this big of a wus cause of some realy dumbass exploit, cause the ps3 have firmware updates. The person behind this find have the brain of a wall, cause thanks to him, sony will speed up some security improviments on next reliases, jeopardizing all the work that the true hackers have been doing, on the exchange of some little and dumb glory to have his name on the scene. Remeber all, the real hacker dont expose his or her name for little buggy things, we wait for the real moment to show up the true thing, you all do wrong puting this exploit info to early, now, maybe the future is black for us, or too many people will have to stay on the 1.90, if they want to install any custom firmware or custom app. The problem is not too easy to solve, trust me, give us some time with your, lets say, mouth shut, and maybe in one year you can have your custom firmwares and/or your iso loader, without taking the risk to alert sony of their mistakes, but if they improve the security some little more, forget about anything. Remember, ive warned you.
Sony would be upgrading anyway, and its our choice as to whether or not we upgrade (at least, for now…check out the new ’silent update’ patch on the new iPhone FW, thats some creepy shit right there)
I hope someone cracks this thing soon and makes it as cool as the PSP
NEXT TIME IT WOULD BE FUCKIN’ BETTER IF YOU ALL CLARIFY THAT IT DON’T WORK ON BACK-UPS
we did……too many times to count, learn to fucking read douche monger
TAP DIS BONG ASS HOLE OF COUSRE IT NOT GOING TO FUKING WORK ITS A FUKEN TIF FILE THATS CORRUPTED UP ITS ASS . AND SWAP A FUKEN CD WILL IT TRYING TO LOAD A GAME LOL.
TAP DIS BONG ASS HOLES

THAT IS THE MOST HILLARIOUS THING I HAVE HEARD IN A LONG TIME. “TAPDISBONG” YOU ARE MY HERO. THAT IS FUNNY!!!!!!!
so what?. everyone gettin all excited over a way to fuck with your ps3. sony will just release a new update within a few weeks that will fix it and that’s the end of that for another 5 months until the next “hack”. until the updates stop coming and sony have released everything new they can think of to get you to download the latest update, then no hacks will ever be available and that’s years away. and in any case, theres hardly any decent games to download anyway so who gives a shit ? fu noob lamers
Who’s the fuckn noob lamer? HOw do you think the hackers run with psp? Sony release an update, they stay on top of sony.
You ps3 owners are a fucking disgrace, i would like to know how all you fucked up turd monkeys even got the money for one? Surely disability payments are that high, or do you just survive by eating all the shit you motherfuckers dribble. Makes me embarrassed to be a ps3 owner to be honest, fucken cock monkeys

da part was from team america da prt where it says he goin shit on his balls
team america good movie
morons
THIS IS THE MOST RETARDED THREAD I HAVE READ IN MY LIFE!!!
lllllllllolll
Sephirothff has found a way to launch Swap Magic 3.8 on his European v1.90 PS3 (no emotion engine). Although no PS2 ISO’s are playable its a pretty cool discovery but don’t get your hopes just yet, it’s still only a small discovery, but its also a small step to MAYBE something big.
Props to Xfab29 for his video showing the method:
And for those interested this is how it is done:
* Create on a USB/Flash drive a folder named SWAPMAGIC
* Place the .ELF file (of choice) in the SWAPMAGIC folder on USB/Flash drive, and RENAMEthe ELF file you just inserted to SMBOOT0.ELF.
* Insert the USB/Flash drive in your PS3 USB port.
* Insert your SWAP MAGIC CODER 3.8 CD, when it launches go to SMBOOT in the menu, and select SMBOOT 0 to run the .ELF.
nice
shouldnt let out da secret sony read and make security update
“Once swapped, remove the USB stick, and the new game boots — no errors! ” Why say that if it’s not true?Shouldve just put a tif file can freeze the ps3 not can load games no errors
look retard, it’s to launch original games, and it works
I tried and nothing!
Want free hack? Wait…. Want now? Money please… They didn’t ask you a single coin… Just buy the damm game for yourself… If can’t afford, then smash and throw your ps3…
i know, you pay 600 (i pay 700 for mine) and cant buy game thats a FUKEN TAP DIS BONG MOVE ASS HOLES. go out an buy a game support sony do the right thing tap dis bong
I WISH YOU’D SHUT THE FUCK UP ALREADY
we need custom firmware
team m33 knows how the psp firmware works
i wouldnt be surprised if they are coded the same and use prx’s
don’t smash and throw it, give it to meeee, having 2 would be naize.
hey omfg i’ll fuken cut ur dik off an shove it up ur ass so everytime u shit u shit on ur fuken half inch dik. an ur mom told me shut da fuk up dum pussy. faget as homo suk dik. dont tell me shut da fuk up i’ll fuken put shit in ur mouth an eat it fag lord go fuk ur self u dum fuk TAP DIS BING ASS HOLES omfg u lil fag pussy
wow, you do a good job at doing nothing but be a douchebag, how bout you really shut the fuck up, go home, and if you’re going to insult someone, don’t water down something from a movie that’s not that good anyways. so just shut the fuck up and get an actual job, do something with yourself except attempt to piss of people on a PS3 hacking site.
hey squidpussy wat hacks are out so far??? how to freeze a ps3 wit a tif file good hak
does it really matter that much to anyones life “what hacks are out” it’s a hobby, not the stock market.
on another note. this tiff file is a step in the correct direction. along with the interview of a member of Team M33 stating that they might check out the PS3, so don’t look into the present as a dull and gloomy era, but look to a brighter future. kind of hard to do when you yourself does not have a “bright” future to go to.
so it can launch original games wow im very impressed i an launch games i could already launch already fuckin amazing
If all you’re going to do is complain about the lack of hacks, or the success of the hacks, get the fuck out. Honestly. It is a strong headway in the exploit area.
WOW WHAT A GREAT HACK!!!! NO!! what a big piece of junk. just a tiff image that frezze the ps3 and nothing else????? and you call that a “hack”????
its not a moron. its an exploit. which is why they also they said tiff exploit and not tiff hack. get it right moron. you dont even to diserve to be on this site. every small discovery could possibly lead to a major hack.
I HAVE A QUESTION. Was this tif. image created by someone or what? And if it was is there somewhere i can go to learn how to do this stuff?
It’s an image file just like jpeg but in .tif you can put a code in it (a hacking code for ps3) and the ps3 reads it as an image when u open it the ps3 reads your hacking code.
i just tryed it and workes on 1.90
no shit sherlock, it says it in the description….
fagg
GREAT FUCKING JOB!!! I CAN NOW WASTE MORE TIME,SWAPPING MY ORIGINAL DISC WITH AN ORIGINAL DISC.. TO DO WHAT? PLAY ANOTHER ORIGINAL DISC… Now you need to exploit your brain with some code to make you smarter than my retarded cat….
Does this work on firmware higher than 1.90 such as 1.92, 1.93, 1.94?
Does this PS3 TIF Exploit work on UK PS3’s with 1.50 firmware? If so great, if not is there a way to downgrade to 1.31 from 1.50?
