First Working Playstation 3 Modchip ?

 Belzar PS3 Modchip

My usual daily internet round up lead me to this site stating they have a working PS3 modchip.
Too good to be true? well only time can tell.

 According to the site, Belzar the world first full-fledged direct boot modchip for the PS3 that is packed full of useful features including multi-region DVD and blu-ray movie playback is now being tested by 50 beta testers for final bug testing.

Belzar PS3 Modchip features:

  • Works on all PS3 models
  • Works on all PS3 regions (USA, JAP, PAL,)
  • Direct Boot of PS3 original, import, and backup (copied) games
  • Direct Boot of PS2 original, import, and backup (copied) games
  • Supports multi-region Blueray Movie Playback
  • Supports multi-region DVD Movie Playback
  • No config disc needed – it just works!
  • Transparent stealth operation
  • Integrates proven belzar Intelligent Code Modifying System
  • No awkward USB interface – just insert DVD and play!
  • Supportsall upto date titles
  • Ultra-low power consumption; does not interfere with normal PS3 operation
  • Only 12 wires to solder
  • No external PC/laptop needed
  • completely upgradeable firmware, via Belzars usb 2.0 interface

PS: PS3 games are around 25-50gb, how long will it take you to download or even upload ? Which sites will allow that amount ?  Which ISP will let you download let’s say 3 ps3 games in a month ? around 100gb ?

For me i think the high capacity of the PS3 discs is the real easy yet effective solution for piracy .

What are your thoughts ?

Gear Of War 2 Leaked 2 Weeks Before Street Date

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

 

While back we wrote about GTA IV when it was released to the net before store date , and it seems it happened again.

Gear Of War was the first game i played on my 360 and although i hate the genre i did surprisingly enjoyed it and just can’t wait for the upcoming Gear of War 2 and yet the pirates found their way to it almost two weeks prior to store date.

 

A group by the name of “x360inT” released it to the underground by labelling it as ”Gears Of War 2 NTSC XBOX360-x360inT “.

Is  sad , but i hope this won’t bring a huge loss as some great things deserve to be bought no matter what , even if you can’t afford it you can still rent it out from any rental store instead of leeching free online.

If you are like me get yours Pre-order and be ready to gear in the war ;)

Notes:  If you want to read more about the release or the source web , you have to google it ,we didn’t include the web link because we don’t want to encourage people to visit it, sorry.

Grand Theft Auto IV Leaked A Week Before Street Date

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

Sometimes i understand why companies are trying so hard to combat piracy.

GTA IV

Grand Theft Auto IV is probably the game of the year, everyone i know ,every mature gamers awaiting so badly this game by preordering their copies or waiting to grab one next week , but seems internet underground group iCON braked the ice earlier by releasing to the internet almost a week before worldwide retail date set for 29/04/2008.

They even decided to warn those wanting to play live.

Quote:

“–iCON brings you: Grand Theft Auto IV

not region free! sorry bushlovers!
Japan, Rest Of Asia, Australia, Rest Of Europe
hey this is iCON again. we just finished
that crappy GTAIV game of thing and thought
you might want to have it too. so here it is.
!!! IMPORTANT: !!!
DONT PLAY THIS GAME WHILE CONNECTED TO XBOX LIVE TILL NEXT WEEK!
DONT PLAY THIS GAME WHILE CONNECTED TO XBOX LIVE TILL NEXT WEEK!
DONT PLAY THIS GAME WHILE CONNECTED TO XBOX LIVE TILL NEXT WEEK!
setcha xbox live profiles to hide your games
list from dirty little spys. or skip online
till next monday. otherwise you might get banned
for playing this bitch early.
if u dont mind, well.. like we care.
and guys, seriously, go and buy this one!
R* deserves it…

——iCON – Passion for Videogames—– ”

Funny though they advised people to go buy it ,but if they care that much why released such anticipated game before retail date in first place ?

I really hope people will go buy this awesome game not because i am related to Rockstar games but because this going to be maybe the only game you really want to play and you can really enjoy it only if you hold a legal copy.

>> Now another point i really want to bring out is for the companies appointed to fight piracy.
The root of the piracy doesn’t lie much with the home user who managed to have 40mbit line at home just to download fast copyrighted materials but with the source of the first copy .

For instance this game , for sure either a menber of the group works in the retail industry,run a retail store,or is related to someone in the industry there is no possible way they can have access to it before retail date.

So rethink your strategy and start tracking through the retail industry itself instead of the bittorents or p2p channels, they are just the hands and feets of the big P (p for piracy), go after the head which is within the retail industry itself. <<
