If you read my past blog (LINK HERE) about the PS3 successfully being hacked by the guy who hacked the IPHONE, you might be jumping with excitement and anticipation of running cheap pirated games. I really hate to tell you this, but it seems it will never happen.

The guy who hacked the ps3 used the old PS3 which was the ‘PHAT’ one and by using one of the cool feature of the old ps3 which is installing a LINUX OS to the unit, he was able to bypass the 7 security gates of the PS3, and he told the world by just installing some programs via the LINUX OS, hacking the PS3 would be a breeze.

This is where Sony steps in, as you all know, the SLIM one no longer have the feature of installing a OS, so it seems that the SLIM one is safe from hackers, while the PHAT isn’t. Sony has just released a firmware update last week for the PHAT which disables the installing OS and also makes an installed OS inaccessible. Even though the UPDATE is OPTIONAL, it is still a must because you can’t play any online games until you update your firmware.

Sorry hacker(s) but SONY has the last laugh on this matter.

That’s all for now

PEACE OUT!!
