article published on 1 April, 2008
More than a year has passed since PlayStation 3 was released. The whole time hackers have been busy trying to break into the system and run Homebrew, without any luck -- until now. First homebrew software was run on a Firmware 2.20 PS3 yesterday. A simple "Hello World"-program was created by a known PSP hacker Dragula96 and run through a vulnerability in the system architecture.

Pardon me if i'm still a bit skeptical of this one.
I think it would indeed be a huge step forward for PS3 owners, but i'm not convinced.

To right! We will have updates coming in all directions soon.
Now we have a way to run programs on the PS3's OS, not Linux!

I LOVE HACKERS. I love my phones being hacked and Iphones and other systems too. But that stuff has tangible gains and immediate benefits. What I do think is lame are those that hack the crap out of their gaming systems. You guys bought it to play frakkin' games on it and as for the PS3 in particular, for both Blu-ray AND games. What benefit is there in hacking a PS3 (other than of course "doing to to see if it can be done" and playing jacked games) All you goofs out there saying "woo hoo ............... firmware wars, homebrew now starting" need to get a hobby and go fly a kite or ride a bike because you have entirely waaaaayyyy too much time on your hands. Go buy your system with money that you EARNED, rent/buy your games (for the most part) and contribute back to society instead of looking forward to you opportunity to prey on it and leach off it. Go ahead and jack some stuff but I'd bet that the majority of those anxious for this to happen are stealing everything and not buying a thing. We call you leaches and negative contributors to society. Of course all the guilty out there (and ONLY the guilty) will respond to this with harsh remarks because of course that makes them feel good about their thieving. That also proves YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE.

I'm with you, besides who would risk bricking a $400-$600 gaming system to play pong or to run some sort of disk images so you can steal games. He probably stole it anyway so it didn't cost him squat.

Show us a video of how you got there from the begining... Turning it on and we will believe you. Also write down instructions so that anybody can do it on their 40 or 60GB PS3. We need a proof video like the Hello World videos on the PSP that took us step by step from turning it on to getting the hello world. And what's with the tape on the TV?

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 ?
* place the USERDATA.JAM file on the root directory of a usb memory stick
* then add mod via UT3 on ps3 the normal way you would any other mod
* start up an instant match, set opponents to 0, select mutator option
* go down the list select Hello World, run game.
* hud will be replaced by hello world screen.
