If the Belzar modchip is realer than real deal Holyfield, and of course compatible with the PS3 Slim, then you’ll want to know what’s involved with tearing that puppy apart. The folks over at iFixit illustrate how easy it actually is; YouTube check it –

First!
Looks Pretty Cool!
not bad cant say i like the styling much though…
2nd woop!
yeah i think sony were trying to keep it cheep like look at the power buttons there not touch sensitive and it also look like they wanted to scale down a ps3 instead of resigning it
beat me to it!!!!!!!!!!!!!lol
So if I purchase this which I happily will, and I mean HAPPILY, I don’t want to install it myself. Will employees at certain stores such as radio shack of gamestop ect. Install this for me for a fee?
And I dnt nessecarily mean gamestop I just want to no if there is a store tht will do tht
If you’re in Fort Wayne, IN, or Van Wert, OH, I’ll do it. Ask for Mike at any of the stores and you can find me.
Oh, that’s at Radioshack, by the way.
Waiit… Install what? The system to a TV? You’re a fkng Idiot my friend, ever heard of Google? OR a fkng manual?!
wow asshole u sure hert my feelings
truth hurts, doesn’t it?
woww is that really nessasary he only asked a simple question you dick
install what
the mod chip !!!!! lol i dont want to open my playstation but i would really like to play ps2 games again i have a 40gb ps3
lol i dont think either one of those stores would do that especially radio shack
well, yeea thts wat i think too but there HAS to b stores to do this couse it IS legal & places do the same thing with pandora battery 4 the psp
you sure it’s legal? Last time I heard its against the law to even sell mod chips so wouldnt installing them be the same for a store to install them? but i’m not sure so i might be wrong
COme on guys, Belzar is fake for sure.
I mean, their site is down, lots of fake accounts/sites supporting the scam.
I bet the scamers already gave up on trying to rob people’s money.
I can’t see any reason on hosting two sites for the sake of a prank.
That was most deffinitly a bad attempt to scam people.
i know this has nothing to do with the video but in case any one is interested the PSXLOADER (ps2hombrew emulators) totaly works i tried it and now i have three virtual memory cards on my ps3 for swapmagic one to boot the homebrew and the other to boot PS2 backups of the games i own, and obviously one for my ps2 games. i have FW2.60 USA 60g all without any modchip. I think these specific hacks may work on later firmwares because the PSXLOADER suposedly wouldnt work after FW 2.41 or something and it totaly works on mine, so if any one has a laterr FW could you please try these and pos your results, i dont want to upgrade if they dont work.
i know what you mean, but i mean hacking and programming really has no end if you think about it. a ps2 game is a DVD correct? the ps3 slim can still read the DVD format disc right? well i am sure some one will and could come out with a HARD mod piece, which would attach to the board in a way that it gives it the backward compatibility. so i think all hope is not lost. some people just need to put there mind to it. am i right! i always say “the original is always designed to be altered!” – Adam.
Nice, the ps3 slim is so neatly designed.
Too bad they took off the Other OS feature for the ps3 slim.
Belzar is a fake, for the truth visit this site:

So no one seems to care tha Sony seems to be neglecting the ps2 hardware which is still HACKABLE !!!! C’mon people get with the programa there has to be something in this look into this im not a programer so i cant but i know many of you can. I bet there has to be an exploit in this after all the ps2 hardware still runs inside th ps3.
Not for this new PS3 Slim they took out the one thing you need to emulate PS2 titles on your PS3 Slim the backward compatibility. Without this you cannot play your PS2 titles no hack, PSXLOADERS, or SWAPMAGIC would work on this.
i know there is now backward copatibility on the slims or even some older models with just software emulation.
im talking the original releases like mine.
i have both emulators and ps2 backups of yes my own games its a US fw 2.6 60gb, supposedly its only suposed to work up to fw 2.4 but its working just fine on mine i think sony fasing out the EE processor is compleatly neglecting it in the new FW.
What do you think.

man. this sucks…a slim? without b/c? you might as well as have a clutter of consoles next to your tv…which won’t look so good…
but honestly…for people believing that the ps2 emulators will appear on the later gen is fake. even yahoo news reported on the slim has stated…i think several other site also cited it with reputable sources as well as it coming direct from the president of Sony’s mouth…what more do you want?i suspect that the ps2 will still be around anyhow.
oh yeah…almost forgot…ain’t no stores that will install modchip…they’ll buy modified consoles AS LONG AS THEY DON’T KNOW…
however, if you wish to ask the store, be prepared to either get arrested or asked not to come back to the store…i know this for a fact as it would voliate the term of agreement to sales of modified consoles or watsoever. however, if you were to know someone who wouldn’t mind doing it for you, for a fee, then you just might be lucky. MIGHT…and as for a modchip for ps3…why? if you don’t support the devopler of the ps3, they might stop making it for the ps3…
How massive was that fan?
Fake! http://www.belzar.com DOWN! But anyway why would someone spend money on a web domain to feed a crap like this? A Dickhead for sure!
wow pretty dang easy i could say, but then i again i deal with a more major scale of teardowns. im going to look forward to installing this chip as soon as i get my ps3 slim!
what if you have a backwards compatible PS3 that you dont mind tearing apart for whatever components to make my new slim backwards?
