Who ever said I was trying to screw Sony over? I like to have my games backed up so I or my young kids don't ruin the discs! I have never downloaded any illegal Copys of games. I do not condone it whatsoever. I've had Sony consoles ever since the first playstation was released and have paid Sony a bloody fortune over the years for there games and products! And I would bet good money that if your searching around on this site YOU are the type of person involved in some kind of hacking or ripping some company off! so next time you decide to pop your opinion on a thread accusing people of something you have no idea about, I suggest you don't bother wasting your time. Idiot!

Wow. Calling a Moderator an "Idiot", Not good. Here's my thing and I am sure that there are some members here that are indeed "backing up" games that they legally own but the majority here,I highly doubt.I think its funny/convenient that a person justifies
pirating because he/she had a bad experience with a company.

These are the same people that complain that "games are too expensive".

Just an observation... the argument re: protecting the discs from children is largely negated by the fact that the games are on BD. The hardcoats, such as Durabis2, used on the disc are exponentially more scratch-resistant than that used on DVDs in addition to mitigating fingerprints, dust, etc. One oft repeated test used to demonstrate the resiliency of BD media is the "steel wool test." Others have attempted to scratch the media with screwdrivers, write on it with Sharpies, etc. The end result is invariably the same... the disc ends up none the worse for wear.

Were we discussing cd or dvd based games, the backup argument would bear considerably more merit. By and large though, it's moot where BD is concerned.

Trust me, my kids will find a way to break even the most indestructible of things! The death toll currently stands at 4 ps3 games! And at £40 a pop it's getting a little bit expensive!

Hey guys, Im trying to follow this guide although it was at a different site. I am having trouble, I am using a different region than the guide is using and think the file paths may be a bit different. Please let me know if im on the right track here.

Im only replacing two files right?

The eboot.bin replaces the one already there regardless of the exact file path, I replace the one already in the game folder, correct?

Then I extract the .sfo file edit it to 3.40 and replace the old one in the game folder. Correct?

I mean, step one and step four are talking about the same file right? If not Im not seeing a sfo.pram file to edit, im assuming it means the pram.sfo discussed in step one, just the replacing is talked about in four?


These are the only two files I replace?

THanks


Yes you only replace 2 files! However you don't need to do this anymore. I spent hours messing around with eboots, pram.sfo, hex editors, etc. Only to find out 2 days later that the 3.50 spoofing came out, which tricks you PS3 into thinking its on 3.50 so there is no need to change eboots, pram.sfo, etc. What jailbreak are you using? Have you updated your HEX to the new 3.50 spoofing?
