Pirate Games Coming to a Playstation 3 Near You?

psiconSince ever I can remember technological advances in gaming consoles (i.e. post Sega Saturn age) there were pirate games available for consoles. They were literally everywhere and it was interesting to see the lengths crackers went to ensure they could have a slice of the market. Worst was that most of the solutions weren’t particularly console safe bu that didn’t really stop people.

Up until now nothing in regards to cracking the PS3 has became reality and it still hasn’t though it could be on its way to  a PS 3 near you. As a scrupulous firm known as PS3jailbreaks have posted video evidence of a PS3 running their pirated copies of games.

It is not the first time this has been heard as previously there had been rumors that PS3 would soon work with pirated games.

Since this newest revelation Sony have updated their firmware to try and stop the crackers however it is yet to be seen whether or not it becomes reality and they do start distributing the games. Our advice is beware of these kinds of products as even though they are cheap they are usually harmful to your console which could mean being more out of pocket than you would be by buying the real McCoy.
