Full PS3 QA Flagging Method Revealed – Button Combo and Token

admin — Wed, 22 Jun 2011 07:17:06 +0000

Following up on the [url=http://www.ps3news.com/ps3-hacks-jailbreak/video-ps3-qa-flag-demo-enables-hidden-firmware-options/]previous[/url] article, today the full PS3 QA Flagging Method has been revealed including the Button Combo and Token.

To quote: A few weeks ago, several steps were revealed in the process of unlocking a special Quality Assurance (QA) mode on your PS3 console. The mode unlocks a special mode, which is typically only meant for official Sony testers.

Unfortunately, the steps revealed were only part of the process. Developers were scrambling to figure out the button combo that unlocked the special QA mode. In addition, developers still needed to figure out what to change in the QA dummy token. These two mysteries prevented developers from unlocking the mode.

Today however, the Quality Assurance mystery comes to an end. An anonymous and reputable source exclusively revealed to us the two remaining steps. The secret button combination that unlocks the hidden

Deal of the Day: Portal 2 for $34.99, Free Shipping

admin — Sun, 01 May 2011 18:51:59 +0000

We see some pretty amazing deals but this one made me do a double take. Amazon is offering Portal 2 for only $34.99 and free 2 day shipping. Portal 2 normally sells for $59.99 and this offer is definitely limited so hop on over and give yourself something to do while PSN is down. And, for the time being at least, Amazon is offering $28 to trade in Portal 2 (this may not last but hey, for now it's their quote) so buy the game, play like a mad man for a week, and take it back to Amazon or GameStop and you may end up playing an incredible game for $10. How bout dem apples…

PS3 Cheat Enabler v1.1 Homebrew App Released by TeamSOS

admin — Sun, 17 Apr 2011 21:14:19 +0000

This weekend [b]TeamSOS[/b] have released a PlayStation 3 homebrew application dubbed PS3 Cheat Enabler version 1.1.

Download: [url=http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DB9QQQW9]PS3 Cheat Enabler v1.1[/url]

To quote: The PS3 Cheat Enabler is a simple GUI app that lets you turn on cheats in your games.

It works by editing the Eboot.bin files of your game, but not to worry fellow brethren, this GUI will get your cheats on and off in a click of a button.

Before you jump in, there are some tidbits of info you guys need to know, as in:

1. The cheat database comes in separately so make sure they are in the same folder to make the app work properly. We did it this way because it becomes easier to just update the database(just a few KB)rather than updating the entire software.

2.This app has an Auto Mode and Manual Mode. Auto mode is the easy way, just select the eboot, direct yourself to the correct game from the drop down box, check the cheats you want and wallah all done. Manua
