PS3 Java Games Launched via XMB

Posted by greg on July 18, 2008

I wouldn’t necessarily call this a hack, it more or less seems like Sony’s intention; nonetheless, quite the discovery courtesy of silenoz… Using the BD-J (Blu-ray Disc Java) platform we’re able to launch Java games direct from the XMB. Case in point: Blaster Bunny.

And who knows… Maybe one thing will lead to another…

Tutorial:

  • Download the BD-J game (Blaster Bunny).
  • Unzip the file
  • Copy the contents to the root of a USB/Flash drive
  • Go to the device in the video menu and launch “AVCHD”
  • Go to BONUS and click GAME to launch Blaster Bunny

Download: Blaster Bunny (Java Game)

Hate to break it to you but we still get Final Fantasy Versus XIII as an axclusive. At least we don’t have to settle for a shitty dvd9 release with scaled down textures and shit audio, oh ya have fun switching between 4 or 5 discs. Versus will be the one to get bitches!

Ya, it sucks that they are going to have to dumb down how good the PS3 version could have been so that it can work on your shitty XBOX

2008-07-20 11:00:53

hahahahahaha, Thats about it too. I’ll probably never even get it. Being that it’s gonna have to be down sized to work for the Xcrap. Lose of FPS, Quality, and Size for that matter. Remember dickless Xcrap fans. Xcrap doesn’t have B-Ray tech’.

the ONLY thing blu-ray is good for is massive storage space, it does NOT magically increase performance IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM.

2008-07-21 08:37:35

Dumbass? hahaha! Mass storage, huh. Now being that it has more storage to hold space means more game info, image storage can be stored into a blue-ray. MEANS BETTER QUALITY DUMBASS!!!…

agreed.. it makes it so it can support all the video qualities (1080p, 480p, etc).. none the less.. its microsoft we’re talking about here… i remember at one point you could play PC games online for free.. then i remember i seen halo 2 and you had to pay monthly for microsoft live or some stupid bullshit like that.. micsosoft is money hungry and sony is just trying to do the same as microsoft but they have wireless internet, you dont have to pay monthly… and for microsoft the xbox has in game dash screen and msn messenger, etc… the pros and cons could go on… i think the world would be a much better place is they teamed up and made one universal kick ass motherfuckin crazy console… imagain.. but like i said.. they’re both money hungry.. especially microsoft.. hence, why im routing for sony :)

I will see if it works. At any case I will come back to bring news about it.

Comment by troy
2008-07-20 21:08:25

it wont work because it would have to be changed around a bit to work with the ps3. i believe it also must be bd-j instead of just java

works perfectly for me! I think sony will close this “exploit” in near future.

Comment by stepnage
2008-07-19 11:08:49

No I think Sony will make this a “feature” in the newer firmware, java is a web application so I don’t see the point in covering it up. They will however bung a load of security around this “featur” so we can’t do anything with it.

Comment by none
2008-07-20 20:24:11

NO! java isn’t a web application. javascript could be considered as “web application”. java is a virtual machine. but i agree with the future thing ;]

Comment by none
2008-07-22 23:55:16

Javascript isn’t even an application language. It’s only a client side scripting language so even though no post backs are done, something can happen on the current stateless http page.

this is some horse shit.. i bought a ps3 thinking that final fantasy was exclusive.. i would of bought a xbox 360 if i new that.. i bought ps3 for 600 at the time xbox was 400.. go figure.. i wish thay would tell you when you buy consoles. well i just did the ps3 switch modd so i can play my ps2 games at least its something..haha i have a ps2 but the cdrom drive broke..sucked ass.. but i figured to do this modd just for the hell of it, cause i dont want all these systems everyware… one system is all i need epecialy that it playes all ps games.. oh well time will tell if something will be hacked.. well ill keep my fingers crossed for something good to be exploited… i guess for this hack is a steep closer to something.. keep up the good work i hope to see something in the near future..hackers need to unite and get there heads together.. more heads are better then few.. well i could go on and write a book but..i just wanted to speak my mind.. cya and good luck ps3 hackers

ps3 is far better than the xbox360. be happy you bought the better machine.

Related to the Java game… its nothing new to me sense you can preaty much play Java games online, if there is somehow a bridge to make it go from Java to C++/C then I will be impressed.

Also 360 sucks monkey balls… You can’t even surf the web with it. You have to pay to go live. To be honest all games from 360, except Halo 3, sucks major penis. I hope that those who owns a 360 have a plesant afternoon and may God have mercy on your souls.

It doesn’t work on PAL Ps3. Can some 1 make a PAL version?
BTW does this mean ANY java game can work. Dont flame me!

Comment by Daruny
2008-07-20 15:56:33

If your PS3 can load games in web browsing then maybe you can play it still. I have tried to save games into the PS3 Hard drive but it wont let me. Most likely we all will need a special Firmware to save games and who knows what more. ^__^

can we play iso’s with this Java Loader?

Comment by none
2008-07-20 20:27:31

yes, with the java iso loader ;P
why everyone just wants that iso loader. a free (again as in freedom) ps3 is worth more than free (like in free beer) games as that just leads to a war ending up with even more fscking firmware updates and it’s already annoying how often they appear atm.

its all bollocks, as soon as home was announced, it was the must have, we hate you sony, the ps3 sucks because it aint got it drivel.

ive got a jap ps3, id like it if sony would remove the region lock on ps2 games and DVD’s so i can play my old uk games. i cant imagine any ps3 owners going out to buy ps2 games

im sure some pretty good homebrew could run on java too

Comment by dumbass
2008-07-21 00:30:44

your the retarded fuck. those videos were fake and there is no hack. honestly, if, by some extraordinary chance, it wasant fake, then why, after several months, has NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY FUCK-SHIT NADA, been seen of this hack or out of this person since? that was fake, this isnt.

Comment by daniel?
2008-07-21 06:42:39

it was not fake you ignorant shit!!! it was real but the guy wanted to make some money off the software and it only work with the 2.17 or something around that. so the software wasnt released

i bet you couldnt even understand what he was saying….

hey you are a dumbass ;p

If there is a way to lead a Java program into loading C++/C then I’m on my way to create a game. People on this site are awesome to show updates towards hacks, after all our PS3 was bought by us and we can do the hell we want with it. Homebrewing game should be in our way soon enough.

2008-07-20 20:29:33

in fact java has the same syntax than c/c++. have a look at it, it isn’t difficult to learn if you know c/c++.

I AGREE WITH U ON THAT. WE CAN DO WHAT THE HELL WE WANT WITH OUR PS3′S. IN FACT SONY WILL GET MORE MONEY BY HOMEBREW. JUST LIKE THE PSP. MOST OF THE PEOPLE I KNOW ONLY BOUGHT IT TO HACK IT!!!!

In essence the xbox has hardly any exclusives as most of the any good games are released on PC which is a separte platform which then makes it not an exclusive
