Sony PS3 might finally be hacked ...

Generic News 1994 Published by

Rumors started on Saturday that hackers may have found a way to fully crack the PlayStation 3 console without using a mod chip, more info can be found over here.

The system has remained (mostly) uncompromised for over three years now, with a few exceptions here and there. But, this one pledges full read/write access to the entire system memory and complete control over the processor -- all without a mod chip. Has he really done it, if so how, and what comes next? That all remains to be seen. This exploit supposedly "isn't really patchable, but [Sony] can make implementations much harder," meaning he isn't tipping his hat until he's ready, because once he does the never-ending firmware update war begins, and as we've seen on the PSP, Sony can really knock out those updates.
