Thread: Backup su PS3

Sono stati rilasciati due video che dimostrerebbero la possibilità di installare ed avviare giochi direttamente da Hard Disk.

Nel [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] è possibile vedere che Warhawk, non installato, viene avviato tramite il disco, invece il gioco non si avvia ma sono visibili soltanto le onde sullo sfondo. Il disco di Warhawk viene espulso e viene inserito quello di Motorstorm, a questo punto Warhawk si avvia da Hard Disk.

Nel [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] viene ulteriormente mostrato il funzionamento.

Secondo le informazioni la PS3 utilizzata è una 60GB retail con firmware 2.42 ufficiale

Alcuni dubbi vengono fuori perché chi ha rilasciato queste informazioni (StreetSkaterFU) era un ex membro del "famoso" team ice e sottolineiamo anche che è già possibile giocare a Warhawk direttamente da Hard Disk acquistandolo tramite PSN.

L'unica cosa che fa pensare alla veridicità di questo metodo è che dalle parole di Mathieulh e dal blog di Alek sembrerebbe confermato che non si tratta di un fake.

Di seguito il commento rilasciato assieme al video:

I wont explain the details here till the project is finished 100%, also cuz many devs want to take a look at first and not get it patched that fast. I can say that if all will work like I want it to you'll need:

- "special" game dump of the game you want to play from HDD

- one (any) original bd game

- 2x minimum 60GB HDD's (illegal way - it worx but its not allowed in most countrys - its working like a packed game on psp memory stick)

OR

-1 60GB HDD + original disc (legal way - no need to be inserted while playing)

Im using newest firmware PAL 60GB SKU. 3 games tested yet - working.
Games which should be possible from the knowledge i got yet:

- Warhawk
- Motorstorm
- Resistance
- GT5
- COD3
- ...

I cant check more atm, as I dont have else here. The final way will be a bit different than the video shows. Even there are 2 different ways then to do it, thats because there are 2 different groups of games. One can be done with 1 HDD but then you need the original disk of the game.

i dont support piracy, this is just to safe your disks :)

THIS IS JUST A PROOF OF CONCEPT - NOT A FINISHED PROJECT!!!

if video doesnt work as stream just download it:

better quality vid will come when i get new hdd + repaired hdtv

I hope you see theres no hidden PKG (game list is shown), no hidden disk (i insert motorstorm). At the end of the video i just wanted to show its no test unit --> watch the settings.

Sorry for bad TV quality, my HDTV just exploded and i need to use SDTV for 2 weeks now :(

if there are any questions, you can ask but i dont say ill answer all.

all in all its a hack for rich ppl as you need to have 2 big HDD's to store all games on it, which you want to play. 2 games would require actually about 50-100GB on both HDD's. if you have much space on pc hdd thats no prob as you can just backup and rewrite the data on HDD's.

the clicking which sounds liek keyboard typing in the background is just the cam auto focus.

Hai ragione per quanto riguarda il team ice, ma di certo io mi fido di Mathieulh ed Alek che hanno confermato tutto.

Proprio di ps3news non mi fiderei sebi.
