21/5/2022 0 Comments I hacked my PS3, Here's Why!I found myself in a bit of an awkward situation with my PS3, I basically bought a cheap super slim console off eBay and for some reason it ended up being an American System which isn't much of an issue as 99% of PS3 games are region free, however, something I didn’t realise is that region locking is still on the console for PS1 games. All of my PS1 games are PAL so they didn't work on the system at all, which was not ideal especially as I wanted to use the PS3 to Stream some PS1 games from my collection and I wasn't going to start collecting NTSC PS1 games either because that would cost me so much in import fees and tax, so I decided that hacking my system to remove the region lock was the best option. Before I get into how I did it I want to add a little disclaimer, This is NOT a Tutorial, I'm just going to be briefly going through what I did and what my experience of hacking the system was like in this blog post, Here is the tutorial I followed if you want to hack your PS3: |
