Update: So it’s real after all; sort of… If you have Unreal Tournament 3 and the skills to compile UnrealScript, you too can do this –
And a better video to back it up –
Now, whether or not this will lead to further developments… It’s iffy.
Dave said it, “seeing is believing.” Mind you, we saw a ton of nonsense in the past, so who really knows… Nevertheless, a very convincing “Hello World” video from the reputable PSP hacker, Dragula96.
Dragula96 claims to have discovered a successful method to launch homebrew on PS3 firmware 2.20. And, of course, the source code or method is yet to be publicized; apparently that will be available once further testing is completed.
April Fools or realer than Real Deal Holyfield?
Thanks Dave.

let us all hope its for real. homebrew on ps3 would be something fun to play around with.
BUMPED TO REACH THE TOP lol its out! via ps3news.com has download too, need to sign up though if u haven`t before, and need 5 posts, well ps3-hacks is late with everything lol what about the forums? ima go check, yes its only a hellow world but hey! can u feel what I feel? YES U KNOW LOL
APRIL FOOLS FUCKERZZZ !!
Happy Belated April FOoLz!!!
It’s been proven to be just a UT3 mod ability to write text, not real homebrew code. Move along now please.
Even If The PS3 Does Get ‘Hacked’ How Would Yu Be Able To Upload Blu-Ray Games Onto Yur HDD, Which Are Like..40gb or Even More ? Correct Me If Im Wrong..New 2 ‘Hacking’…
the most common PS3 model is 40GB, thats enough for a few small games…
but the best part is that you can replace your PS3 HDD in a minute.
any normal 2.5 inch notebook PC HDD will do.
so you can have a 500GB PS3 (:
biggest I found in 2.5 inch is 320. where did u find urs? I use an external 1Tb
ummmmmm ok if it was 10 gb like u claim how come i can fit only 1 full backuped game on my 1gb memory stick and not 2 full games do the math !!
srrry this comment was @ Whos there
actually, you dont need a 2.5″, i saw an adaptor called HD extender or something like that which allows you to externally connect a 3.5″.
OK you brought up something that i want to do but i want to put a 100G HDD on my PS3 the problem is i dont know what to do once i have the 100G HDD installed i mean does the PS3 asks you to format it and if it does how do i program it and how do i put the new v2.20, cause i have the v2.01 40G HDD PS3. please help me out i really want a bigger HDD and the new v2.20 on my PS3.
Average Blu ray dvd is 20 Gb still huge tho. normal dvds about 2 gb. I dont know about the games tho. I know the psp games r like 10.
you dont know shit, single layer blu-ray disc is 25gb (base 2), ps3 uses dual layer blu-ray discs which hold 50gb (base 2). average dvd holds 4.7gh (again, base 2) and a psp disc holds 900mb for a single layer disc and 1.8gb for a dual layer disc.
also, largest commerically available 2.5″ sata hard drive is 320gb. several companies have just gotten the storage capacity per platter in a hard drive to 334gb per platter, a laptop hard drive only has space for one platter, no more, so the most you are going to see at this time is 334gb (unless your using a solid state drive, in which case id ask you which major organs you sold to get the few thousand dollars to pay for the bloody thing).
Not for long, check out this site about Samsungs 500GB
http://gizmodo.com/365604/samsung-unleash-22x-dvd-burner-smallest-500gb-hdd
last i checked that wasant scheduled for release until late this year. not only that, but its probably going to end up costing an arm and a leg when it hits, would probably be cheaper to get a converter and put in a 1tb drive.
on the plus side though, 500gb per platter means a 2tb desktop drive is most likely in the works.
PSP games are 10 GBs? Fucking moron.
dont you mean PS3 you fucking moron.
and they are bigger than 10gb
no he means psp
hell no, no psp game is 10gigs thats the dumbest comment i’ve seen yet….
it does look pretty convincing but why would you get a unstable signal messgae on your tv if there wasnt a switch in signal?
If it does work though that would be amazing!!
I hope they bring out a way to make custom firmwares so that we can add loads of content to them. I know its a long way off as was for the PSP but it is still possible.
my tv dose the exact same thing when i start / stop game playback
i’ve got an A/V Switch box that cuts in and out when the screen goes blank for a couple seconds….so maybe he’s doing the same thing?
oh right? Well then it looks pretty genuine so it should be gd!! The only way to tell is when the actual software comes out and everyone can see to believe, but until ten im still a little sceptical.
I don’t know, when I quit a game back to the XMB my screen flashes. It’s basicly recreating the graphics device and loading all the XMB resources again as games would have there own device.
i think its bullshit
ill believe it whesnt reaan i actually see it being played on my very own ps3
sorry meant to say
ill believe it when i actually see it being playedon my ps3
Time will tell, if this is the real deal.
If real of course, the next thing would be writting something useful for the PS3. What is needed to run unsigned code and Playstation Network access and all the other details involved in playing on the PSN network and day to day stuff.
Opening the machine to homebrew = good
Opening the machine to Piracy = bad.
Just my opinion, The thing is that its the anti piracy which is where most of the security is put, so to get homebrew you usually have to get at a part of the system that allows backed up games to run. (by this I mean the hack to allow homebrew will also enable a coder to write code that disable copy protection).
Sony if they had any sense would realise that the Ps3 will be opened within 6 months from now as real progress is being made.
They should make a new update which opens the RSX and hopefull everyone would get decent homebrew via linux and not need to try and hack GameOs
There would have to be some pretty badass pirates to pirate a Blu-ray disk. As new games come out (Metal Gear Solid 4) that use more and more space (50gb) it’s going to scare the pirates away. I wouldn’t want to spend time D/l a 50gb file, even if there are like 4 million seeds and I connected to every one of them (seem suspicious to my ISP) my internet, at 1.5mb would slow me down. I don’t want to do the math but it’d take a long time even at MAX speed.
they have blank bluray discs, and i think the hard drive would come in useful for the ps2 games
i can download 50 gb easy in one night but the games are not that big, the most games will fit on a dual layer disk you dont want the exra’s anyway i think(making of and music and so on.
so where are the instructions to do this ourselves?
….did you read it at all. Plus, why would you want to do it? it’s not useful to you.
at the time i made the comment, it did not say they were going to release it. I would want to do it to prove that it works! ur just gunna assume the source he releases works?
To be honest, I feel there really isn’t too much worth ripping off for the ps3… although I’m more of a homebrew fanatic than anything, so I don’t appreciate the current games as much as an average gamer. I just want to be able to play my psx backups and old school system emulators. Even better, Plug psp into ps3 > play Chrono Cross on ps3 > save > start up Chrono C. on psp > Continue. I see real potential in that respect.
Hope this is not an April Fools joke, not gonna be pissed… just a little disappointed. Dragula96 I give full support if you’re telling the truth about this!! :D
kinda shady that its a day before april fools
but isnt the idea of april fools day that its on the day?
now if you remember the time zone differences… (eerie music)
then again, didnt Fanjita or someone release some awesome crack on April1 and it was legit? (for PSP i mean)
Oh and BTW, this is from the source site, DCEMU. From what it sounds like Dragula96 is putting his reputation as a homebrew developer on the line for this.
Here is his comment:
“so iv found a way to program homebrew to the ps3.
took me all day to get it to work but here is a Hello world proof of concept.
its a short video, i can not share how it is done at the moment, i still need more testing, and i need to see if i can actually get a game of pong working.
I will share the method and source code in time.
this does not require any hardware modification.
this method has been tested on a ps3 60 gig and a ps3 40 gig, both of which have current 2.20 firmware.
both are retail models, not development models!
In the video, you can see some tape on my tv, that is to hide mac and ip addresses.
there are no cuts in video at all.
I have spent somewhere around 9 hours to get this working. and i hope you guys don’t think this is a fake, i have a good reputation in the psp scene. I would not release something if it was fake (even if it is close to April Fools Day).
i do not know the extent of which the discovery will let me program, but i seriously doubt this will lead to any iso loader, it does however have the potential of enabling homebrew game programming i believe.”
I think info like that needs to be in the post. Made me believe it a bit more.
I agree with that..that the info should be in the main page on the site…I dont know but i believe this guy…but I still hope its not some sick joke.
i dont even want an iso loader! games are too big and i dont have enough space.(80gb) i just wanna have THE ULTIMATE gaming system that plays all the classics jus like the psp, but big screen and more comfortable controller! jus think, nes, snes, n64, sega, genesis, sega cd, jaguar, neo geo,(too much to list) all that on your ps3! i have all that on my psp so hopefully it will come in time! thank you guys for intensifying my gaming experience!
I couldnt agree more with you man.
Having a N64 on ps3, would be cool.
Hell, having a xbox emulator on it would be cool. :D
How come on these homebrew demo’s they never show the homebrew starting, only the home brew quitting? (taken into account that the ones shown starting have either no output or just been a photo)
it does look quite convincing though.
If it is real.. hope to see some good homebrew stuff get developed…like a good web browser :D
I would really like to see a bad ass super nintendo emulator for the ps3 thats at least 85% functional or 100% on the ps3..thats my dream to play it on the big screen because i have a whole bunch on roms i downloaded them and i am tired of playing them on my pc or psp.
you know you can play snes on linux for the mean time
how… can you use the sixaxe to play the games….?
Just plug it in the usb most g=have ydl 5.01
as the other ydl 5. are crap I haven try the ydl 6.0
yet
i wish you dont need a psp
YEA IT might be true cone on what happen to “spiker” and “Snip0r192’s”I think “Snip0r192’s” made hello world before this guy and he even got his own setup on the web the you tube video is more legit then this one it look more fake not saying it is BUT I TELL ALL YOU GUY’S SOME THE QUIET ONE THE ONE THAT YOU AT LEAST SPECK IT USELY BE THE REAL HACKER AND HOMEBREWER THE ONE THAT COME OUT ON BIG
WELL NONE SITE MOST OF THE TIME BE FAKE
dude no offense but i had a little hard time understanding what you typed..its cool..I am latino.and english is my second language but next time try to do a better job…hope you are not offended.
An improve version for “jesse rosas” and any body els
Well IT might be true cone on what happen to “spiker” he did a eject exploit and “Snip0r192’s” he did hello world on the ps3 a psp was involve “Snip0r192’s” I also think he made hello world before “Dragula96” and “Snip0r192’s” even got his own web blog setup it from WordPress but it a start thaw the youtube video he made look more legit then this one it look more fake not saying it is ((but I tell all you guy’s most of the time the quiet ones that you at least aspect are usely the one that have the real exploit and homebrew But the one that come out on big well none web site are most of the time fake))
better, but barely. i think we got ur point. i hope this shit works so we can finally get to homebrewin!!
thanks for the improved version.
ha ha lmao! same here bro! TALK bro TALK dont just blabber type!
I cant talk but i can type..fcucking dumbass.
why did this kind of thing have to happen right before april fools day (1st April) ……. and why so dark !! anyway if it for real …..legend o.o!
i just want emu’s for ps3…id still buy my ps3 games for sure
Me too,I will still buy ps3 games,but want to play EMUS,NES,SNES,GENESIS,you know the list.
word, im with you on that
Come on now like the man is just gonna give up his work that easy so some one else will take the credit.
Here’s a little section of the chat log.
Me: how do u make the makefile for this?
Dragula96: make file is compiled in pc
Me: what’s the content in your makefile
Dragula96: i dont have one
Me: Dragula what is the command you used to compile it?
SilentTigeR: ^^
Dragula96: windows xp
Me: command
Dragula96: make
Me: just make?
Me: you’re funny
Dragula96: make ps3 hello world?
Me: funny, I never thought you could use the make command unless you had a makefile
Dragula96: you guys are funny
This is most likely a UT3 mod than anything else.
no way is this real, complete and utter bullshit as usual - let’s have the hack to try ourselves and then we will believe you - fuckin cunt.
and it’s APRIL FOOLS DAY NOOBS !
So. Never the less… WHY DON’T YOU READ THE SOURCE!!!
He released a new video, example code, and a closer description of the UT3 mod. Have a look at it again and then continue to suffer because nobody codes the ISO loader you think you need sooo much.
I DONT KNOW ANY UK HACKERS!
UK hacker - is the first fake in this shit
loads ok UK hacker u fools! but here in UK we have major laws against console hacking etc so uk hacker will prob keep it on the low and u wont find em as easy!
If you ever can manage to copy games on the PS3 HDD, then can u play PS2 games that way on a 40GB model?
No! the 60gig has a chip inside simalar to a ps2 chip which well run ps2 games, the 80gig has ps2 emulation software, if the emulation got hacked like psp ps1 emulation in the flash then maybe one day the 40gig could run ps2 from emulation
no it wont. us/jap 60gg,20gb have the ps2 cpu and gpu. all other 60 gb’s and 80 gb’s are mising the ps2 cpu and it emulated. the 40gb’s jus dont ether of these chips. so unless we get a really good coder that can emulate the ps2 gpu (sony choose the cpu to emulate cause it was “easier” then mb we can have a ps2 emulator running. i love my canadian launch 60GB
Yeah its fake. I have a universal system switcher and it makes the same noise he keeps making. He just keeps switching systems. He could have his pc hooked up to it for all we know.
Definitely fake. Sorry guys.
WTF? Have u even tried it? SAY ITS FAKE AFTER U CAN PROVE IT DUMBASS its posted on ps3news.com a download, it requires UT3 though, which I ain`t got, also dcemu.co.uk click on PS3 up the top, another guy has an idea with psp`s flash0 but nothing come of it, just releasing info of flash connected to ps3 from psp
And I mean custom firmware psp`s
Dragula96 is well known to the psp scene too, making a fake would ruin his rep also, so yeah! no1 listen to this fool! lol u was 100% certain wasn`t ya?
“also dcemu.co.uk click on PS3 up the top” oops! nevermind, its the source code of the same site posted here lol
If this is a fake then it will realy piss me off…
Nah! im certain its real, im just annoyed its via UT3, any1 have that game? lol I think it requires the UT3 disc with 1.90? if I remember reading correctly, well I hope the unsigned codes get hacked with another method…
looks pritty real to me
Isn’t it a bit strange?
Its April 1st…
And this is somehow too good to be true….
HAHAH it says on the 2nd line “APRIL FOOLS :)”
on the first vid read the 2nd line and ull see it
i was gunna say this too. on the second vid with all the supposed code it says
Happy April fools :)
what a nipple he is did he think we wouldnt see the happy april fools day
I do not think he is saying aprils fools, but merily saying Happy April Fools. I think this is real, but we will have to wait and see.
wake up, you’re dreaming.
yeah and wipe the cornflakes of yer face aswell
its not real, its UNREAL
haha
but seriously i think its fake
watch sony release v2.21 fw to plug this.
The youtube vid was posted on the 31st of march not april fools, so wtf is the ps3news.com download? uh! uh! uh! fucking people make me sick lol yeah! we had too many fakes to believe anything, but this is real
no because 2.30 soon, if u use a proxy to sign in on 2.20 when 2.30 comes u wont be able to use the store
I found a video to a new way to play backups
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXiqwIj9×7g
I will try…
this is OLD and its fake it load of shit!
as for this new fools joke 1… havnt listend to it with sound but whats to say it aint real… UT games have been bein hacked for years!!!!! im surprised some geek aint made his own UT from code
all it prob does is mods the home screen… well done… but how the heck does this help us load homebrew or iso??
Isn’t the question more, what is it these mods are suppose allow you to do in Unreal Tournament? If he’s made it so that this has done something that wasn’t supposed to be allowed then the question becomes how much room and how much can you code into that mod to get more advantages or exploits running on the system.
An ideal idea would be to attempt to get more rights or access to the ps3’s OS or it’s internals, providing more insight or something.
yeah agreed!
I’d stop complaining and ranting. The PS3 is going to get hacked one of these days…and when it does its going to be the biggest news anybody has ever heard. I almost promise it will even be mentioned on National TV newcasts…and thats not April Fools Joke.
Almost a year and a half with no good hacks or homebrew. I’m sure when its done it will be awesome. The PS3 should be powerfull enough to emulate atari to xbox with no probs ;) but if sony comes out with another console (PS4) before the ps3 is hacked that will be sad.
I really think there is no one that can fully hack the ps3. You heard me. no one can do it. It would have been done by now. lazy hackers.
If i could do it i would. I’m smart but not that smart.
but ps4 wont be released yet its still bein made as is the ps5! yes they are already makin the ps5!!!
but u think the ps3 is still in the £300+ mark and if they were to release ps4 now then ps3 will have to drop loads in price and with the new ps3 120gb version comin out soon they wont make any money atal!
sorry my bad! correction about ps5 there are some plans for it but no actual hardware yet!
ps4 set to be here in 2010 - 2011
good news everybody. Today i called sony and i was told that the 80Gb ps3 is 100% compatible with ps1 and ps2 games. I dont know why people are saying its not fully compatible as the 60Gb ps3 but in any case it is.
80GB emulates the games… 60GB has the chip that actually plays the games… emulation is prone to bugs/glitches so 80gb will have more bugs/glitches than the 60gb… 60gb = way more convenient
I have played over 30 ps2 games on my 80 gig, not a single problem yet, I am still waiting for proof of the reason people say it is inferior…the build of it is actually superior, the fan goes into full speed less often since it has better cooling, other than ps2’s processor, it is a higher quality unit
peace
Its not beter built i have a 60gig there both the same only the 80gig is missing that chip but there the same fuckin console no difference in quality
Not really yah you may here yellow light of death rarely on 60gb/20gb BUT now day’s you here way more Blue Ray problem ? where they coming from 80gb/40gb mostly rarely 60gb/20gb 60gb are better built
better chip and $850.00 for the 60gb that how much it cost Sony to make a 60gb ps3 80gb I think $550 some thing like that but cheap
i thinik this generation of video games need more time to be played with i feel like not all the systems reached their potential points yet like the yrs need to be extended a bit i mean ps4 look at all the hardware ps3 has like thats ridiculous how can all this go old yet its still feels new
The PS3 will never be hacked.
fuck off, im sure the ps3 will be hacked , but! it’s uselese!! apart the fact bluerays disks are expansive and burners WHO GONNA DOWNLOAD A GAME OF 50GIG!!!! (IM A PS3FANBOY AND I LIKE THE PS3 is hacked but i think it’s useless, pls come with an ps2 backup player. The only soulution is a ps3backupgame store, but thats illegal. and super fast internet cost 40euro a month and im not goin to buy every month a game so it is not lucrative
the games are NOT 50GB but not bigger then 8-9 GB you dont want the extras like making of and music and shit!!!!!! cheap basterd!!! a dual layer disk will do for the most games!!!!!
What about Metal Gear Solid 4?
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=50gb+blu-ray+disc+not+enough+room+for+mgs4&btnG=Google+Search
WHO SAID DOWNLOAD???
WE JUST NEED TO RUN A COPIED BLUE-RAY !!!
About that Hellow world - I think thats a SONY mother fuckers “sitting duck”! “You just download the firmware 2.20 with no fear” and patch your PS3 for ever
sorry for my poor english
And if some idiots wanted to play NES SNES SEGA-MEGA GAMEBOY SHIT - JUST bay the PSP!!!
AGREED! why the fuk ppl still want OLD emulators on new consoles! USE YOUR F*KIN PC!!
bring on the PS3 chip or CFW!!!
people still want to play old games on there tv because it would be alot better than sitting on the computer not to mention the multiplayer (but i guess your comfortable with sitting on another mans lap at the computer desk just to play multi player) the main reson i want the ps3 to be hacked is for the emulators so you can have every system all in one with out changing av Cords, you poor bastards just want to never have to buy a game agian…go suck a cock
It will help the system sell well
or rather than sittin on someone elses lap like the gay u are! get another fukin chair u dumb shit!
It so funny
if you can even have multiplayer on a computer you would have to share the key board like the faggot you are, go rob some kids and buy a new video game that should give you something else to do beside anonymus gay sex …queer
or u use a gamepad u are so stupid! maybe ask mummy and daddy for a bigger allowance and then get yaself a couple pads! or if u got £20 get a converter so u can use Ps2/xbox etc controllers on ya pc! keep up with technology b4 u start dishin out insults!
yooooooooo
who saw wrestlemania
LOL
I Did.
fiction… There r no any results. and hasn’t been for a long time…
is fake or really project thx
update the fucking site please dont make this site suck even more keep up with everything this isnt a part time job fuck!
the fact that it’s a UT3 mod means it can’t lead nowhere, that is built into the game meaning noone can do anything with it, it’s not unsigned code, it’s UT3 code.
both are retarted. not even worth looking at anyway. same guys doing the same shit they always do. same shit over and over. CORNY you just lost a steady visitor. yo, if anyone else tired or garbage CHECK OUT
