Truth Set Free

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.

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 ?

For one more time I played through the Yakuza 3 Jap demo and at the end, I started to check around the net to see if there is any new news about it being released over here, and I found at gamefaqs.com some petition sites.I was very happy though about them because that show we are not the only one missing this gem.

So I started to realize maybe Sega was wrong not porting it over here but now if even they want to do it, it will maybe took another year or so and by then we all will forget about it or our thirst of it will be fulfilled by all the videos, cut-scenes, ending and gameplay videos from YouTube and the sort, which mean Sega will lose few fans and potential buyers, although the real fans will still grab it anyway.

So my two cent for all these Japanese developers, start maximising your product potential by just adding some bloody English subtitles to them.

It cost less than voice over and mostly people really preferred anyway Jap voice with English subs.

Some guy told me if you add eng subs then you must support online too for them and I said NO NO: add English subs so people can import the game but they know they can’t have the extras features online provide.

PS3 is region free when it comes to games so why still make it looks like old ps2 with just Japanese language without English subs?

My one petition is for all those Jap developers: Start Adding English Subs To Jap Only Titles or Bring Them Over in Less Than a Year!

I will not make a long post here but all you read lately is Wii break records or PS3 is not doing well.Well let’s look at it differently and you will realize its normal PS3 is not doing well.

Let’s see right now:

-Wii and DS are doing well because all focus on Gamecube and GBA gone.
-Xbox 360 is doing well because support or releases for original Xbox gone, but.
-Sony PS3 is walking the line with PS2 which just make it hard and on top PS2 games still being released right now up until June this year.

In my opinion Sony need to cease game releases for PS2 and focus on PS3 but then try and find a way for PS3 owners to play PS2 games or start selling PS2 games on PS Store.

And one plus PS3 have over the rest is , so far hackers havn’t been able to break it yet, so everyone playing at least PS3 games is legit while there’s modchip all over the net for X360 and Wii.

They said you can’t follow two path at the same time.

Now i say if PS2 is out of the line those report and analyses can be 100% accurate because right now it’s like 2 vs 1.
The report should go like PS2+PS3 vs Wii , not just Ps3 vs Wii or x360 vs Ps3

[update] Seems a hacker have found a way to play PS2 games on PS3, Sony need to get this to work legally not some hackers program which can break down the unit, we want official tool.

Am not a PS3 fanboy so please keep comment relevant to the topic.
