This is the kind of thing that I knew would happen if Sony didn' t implement Linux properly. Which is quite a shame as Linux is relatively easy to lock down hard.

Looks like Sony was more interested in Tax evasion. Well, now they have an even more expensive problem on their hands.

Oh well, sucks for Sony, good for Pirates I guess.

Not like there' s much PS3 games out there that pirates would find worth pirating at all Resistance, Motorstorm...and...Genji?

Whoopie...as if the people who BOUGHT a $600/$900 PS3 would really balk at paying $70 for the few games they actually want!

That' s really sad, seems like we will not get homebrew then.
I guess the ´Guest OS´ option will disepear, and it won' t be a open platform for long.
Fucking pirates just wanna ruin the fun for everyone. :-/

Can' t hurt ' em at the moment can it?

It' s not that shocking. This is only slightly quicker than what it takes most consoles to get worked around & backdoored. You' ve also got to remember that the only people that can pirate these games are people with BD-R drives on their PCs. Which are of course, de-facto standard right now. I wouldn' t worry about it for the time being.

They could dump the games in the ps3s hard drive and run it from there right?

They' d need a PS3 ISO loader, which isn' t available yet. Also, according to the link above, you can replace the standard PS3 hard drive with a higher capacity 2.5 inch internal drive OR you can use an external 2.5 or 3.5 drive as long as it' s SATA.

One guy said he' s installed a 750 gig! Nice! If only that were possible with the 360. Especially with all this downloadable content now.

I' d settle for being able to use external usb harddrives. Microsoft needs to do something and releasing a larger drive just won' t be enough.
