The nearly perfect backwards compatible… slim?Ī Cobra-enabled CFW (see Rebug) enables you to run PS2 ROMs, loosely supporting the greater majority of the PS2 library, albeit with some caveats. That being said, I opted for the Slim 2501A model and embarked on my jailbreaking journey. All 2000.x models are fully exploitable, however. With some exceptions for launch 3000 models, 3000 series Slim models, as well as their more compact sibling, the Super Slim cannot be fully exploited with CFW (see PS3 HEN). The Slim is somewhat of a mixed bag, although all hope isn’t lost. Installing a custom firmware was high on my agenda upon getting my system, and so I was punctual about finding a fully exploitable model:Īll ‘fat’ models, both NORD and NAND, regardless of PS2 BWC, can be exploited to run a fully modified firmware. Despite this misfortune, a PS3 would still find its way into my home years later.
Like many, I opted for Microsoft’s Xbox 360 during its rein throughout the seventh gen. I was only familiar with some of its library after playing a handful of remasters on my brother’s PS4. I wanted a cost effective way to play the likes of Persona 5 and the original, still yet to be ported Crash Bandicoot games. I only recently acquired my PS3 to rediscover some old exclusives. I argue why I still find a jailbroken PS3 to be a relevant platform, worthy of occupying space on your shelf. While the PlayStation Store’s foiled retirement plans are still making press headlines, I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce you to the world of CFW (custom firmware). So unhackable, it is, that softmodding at present requires little more than a USB flash drive and active internet connection. Sony’s PlayStation 3, the once touted ‘unhackable’ console.
