PostPosted: Sun, 4th Oct 2009 21:20    Post subject: [OTHER] Console Scene,Then and Now
Edit: I changed the title to:
"Console Scene,Then and Now"

it seems the consoles companies manage to secure their consoles hard
and now most of the new consoles are partial hacked to not hacked at all.

DSi - not fully hacked{you still can't pirate DSiware games}

PSP
{newest versions like 3000 and GO} not fully hacked and with the newest FW you can't play games with those PSP.

X-box 360- no fully hacked.the Disc drive was the "weak point" to play beckups
but you can only partial play homebrew and you can't play cracked live arcade games.

PS3
- Not hacked at all.

what happened?

DSi - hacked perfectly, you can play every DS and DSi title. DSiWare are DRM protected and locked to that console.

PSP - 3000 has been hacked, allows CFW and booting all backups. PSPGo has been out for less than four fucking days! Give it time Rolling Eyes All 5.50 and 6.00 games right now have been patched/hacked too.

X360 - Older models with certain kernels have been hacked for homebrew, allowing Linux installs. XBLA is DRM protected and are tied to your account.

PS3 - Nobody cares about it Razz (I kid, I kid..)

PS3 will be cracked when the bu-ray recorders and disks become cheaper. You can as well get all 4 games for PS3 that are worth playing and not available on x360

I have read that with version that above 5.03
you can't hack it yet,and you can't dowgrade it.

like I said,so they mange to secure those games,for now.
and it still "uncracked"
so,I still not considered this as "fully hacked"
"fully hacked" is when you can fully play all games
on the console,no matter if they are on disc or from your hard drive.

Just like always; you have "read" and then you come post it on here. That's false. Every PSP with a battery slot allows downgrading via Pandora, then flashing upwards to whatever FW you want.

Latest FWs haven't been cracked yet, which bites, but at least we have the Decrypt app for running 5.55+ titles now.

I hope one day the PS3 can be hacked. There are some games for the PS3 that are not available for the XBOX 360 or the Wii that I would love to play. Even if the disks used for burning might be a little more expensive it would still be worth it

Bullshit, that's not how it works. If PS3 also had a weakspot in DVD drive firmware it would be cracked ages ago. Are you that naive to believe that there's a hacker checking prices of bluray media and burners every day and waiting for them to drop under a certain amount and then he'll hack PS3? Laughing

Not to mention blank blurays are pretty damn cheap already, you can buy like 10-20 blank discs for the price of 1 game.

Most probably, since nowadays nobody cares about PS3 getting cracked. Nothing is uncrackable. If PS3 is not cracked it means only the demand is too low.

this console "gen" his less "hackble" then the previous,
sure,most of consoles games are still crackble,but there is now a full console that has not been hacked yet{PS3} and Arcade/Dsiware games that can't be cracked yet.
if this will be continue,we will see more of this "protections" in the future,and
less and less consoles games will be "crackble"
that's why I'm worry about the future of the console scene.

no, it simply means that the ppl at sony who developed the protection are smarter than the crackers out there. 100% bulletproof protections aren't possible, but you can obviously get damn near it.

Man Ive seen you around here just all kinds of negative. What are you doing to assist these scenes? Aside from complaining about their lack of progress by your standards of course.

The scene isn't wal-mart or target or some customer service driven entity thats going to work harder if people complain. In fact I would think if there were a group of people providing basically a free service and people were bitching about that free service....they would just stop.

Thats just my opinion of course. But I guess if people can come on here and complain then I am very within my rights to post something like this.

Cheers.

piracy as we know it is only a byproduct of the mental jousting taking place between companies and crackers, not something to be taking for granted.

@Clcancellation: ever thought about buying software? it usually works this way. i'm no saint either in this matter - but if i see something that's worth spending money on, i just do it instead of waiting around till maybe, just maybe, i can get it for free and wasting my time by whining about it.

the reason there hasnt been much going on in the PS3 hacking front is because most initiatives within the hacking community have been to get linux running on these machines. With the PS3 linux runs so no need for these types of hackers to circumvent the security to run it. In the early dayss i do beleive a certain scene grp was close to having a loader but a FW patch nixed it

Well they havent actually cracked the ps3's hypervisor yet..neither have they on the 360..well not fully anyways. So we cant say for sure if the ps3 would be cracked right now even if it had a dvd drive instead of a bluray.

As for the poster of this thread - i dont really understand the reason behind the post..the scene is still the same as always..some consoles are cracked and some are not cracked..just because a few werent cracked doesnt mean the scene is falling apart. Its as important today as it was 8 years ago. Believe it or not..there is money to be made with the cracking scene..so as long as there is money to be made..there will be cracked systems.

Also a blu ray burner is almost there as mainstream affordable..can get a bluray burner for around 175 bucks now. Can get bluray blank disc's for 10 for under 100 bucks now...i sure would buy one for a cracked ps3 right now..but there is no cracked ps3 yet, i'd say in 1 year there will be a cracked ps3.

I didn't said that consoles games not "cracked" I'm saying
that the situation is quite different then the previous one,
in the previous one all the consoles {expect GC} were fully hacked,
this time the consoles are less "hacked" then before.

Actually, Gamecube was fully cracked too - it just had an odd way of loading the backup games if you didn't have the full-size DVD drive/case mod.

As for this generation, they're not "less" hacked. Each console, except PS3, plays backup games. You just don't get EVERYTHING for free like DSiWare or XBLA/PSN titles. That has nothing to do with cracking the "system" but hacking the 128bit++ security in place via DRM.

like I mention,just because I want it to be "fully hacked"
it doesnt mean I'm gonna get "EVERYTHING" for free.
like some of the people here,I'm buying some games,
and those people want things to be hacked too.


as for the console DRM,
is there some news about hacking this?

Yup! I had my SNES with a cart backup device and over 100 games -- called the Super Magicom (also known as the Wildcard) Copies carts to floppy! Awesome stuff, I really miss mine.

Some games had issues and couldn't be copied due to the cart-specific chips, like SuperFX and Capcom's S-DD1. Also specific Nintendo-made games were problematic too (I never once got Super Metroid to dump and work properly) Sadly my Wildcard was only 24Mbit, so games larger than 24Mbit wouldn't work *sigh*

And here was the version for the Megadrive/Genesis, called the "Super Magic Drive" - same device as for the SNES;

That would be the VDoctor 64, a CD-Rom (could you imagine ripping those gigantic carts to floppy!? Laughing) based backup drive that could dump AND load .v64 images from CD.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_V64




An even better model was the V64jr. Had faster, larger, RAM onboard as well as being the size of a CARTRIDGE rather than that huge monstrosity of the older model.

awesome, never knew about that cartridge backup stuff Very Happy

you know what's funny about this? nintendo themselves were unable to get out a decent disc-based expansion for the n64 as well as the snes, but some crackers managed to do so Laughing
imagine nintendo had simply bought up the v64jr/vdoctor...we would have had final fantasy 64!

even more funny was sony and nintendo were planning on making the playstation together but through some mumbo jumbo it didn't happen, sony was responsible for making the CD part of it.

Actually, funny story -- the PlayStation only came into being because Nintendo was stubborn and obstinate Wink Phillips and Nintendo entered into an agreement to make a CD-ROM attachment for the SNES, and eventually their next machine the Ultra 64 (what was originally named in arcades, and eventually came to be known the Nintendo 64) -- but they pulled out of the deal at the last minute, citing that cartridges were still their best option.

Phillips took their technology to Sony, who had originally ALSO had an agreement with Nintendo for a joint Cart+CD based machine, one that would play SNES carts as well as Sony's own CD-based games/media.

The rest is history Very Happy

=Edit=

Damn you Mr Squirrel!



Oh and as for Final Fantasy 64? Square were originally working on the next FF instalment for the n64, but eventually scrapped it in favour of CD-based media on the Playstation.
