The PS Jailbreak - The First PS3 Modchip Hack To Ever Be Released.

Aug. 25, 2010 - PRLog -- Just when everyone thought it was never going to happen, along comes the PS Jailbreak. Some people call it the PS3 Jailbreak or a PS3 Modchip, but whatever the name, it's one cool little accessory. A little USB Dongle that allows your Playstation 3 to store and load games from the internal Hard Drive of the console.

It’s much like the USB Modchips that came out long ago for the Playstation 2, that didn’t require any internal soldering of any kind, and were just plug in and play type modchips that were so easy to use and install that they went off the shelves.
The PS Jailbreak is exactly the same type of modchip. A quick plug in of the USB dongle gets your Playstation3 ready. And then another USB flash drive so that you can then install your homebrew games and applications, and most importantly, your Backup manager.

A good number of PS3 owners believed that a PS3 modchip was just not possible, that the PS3 was just not open and unable to be modified, let alone have a product that actually worked.

What really has me excited is that the installation, if I can even call it an installation, is so incredibly simple, that anyone can do it, without any technicals skills or soldering experience. Heck, you don't even have to own a soldering iron..

Most modchips for any other consoles, certainly first generation modchips, always required installation by way of solder anywhere from 10 - 40 wires internally on to the main board of the game system. Not with the PS Jailbreak. All you really need to do is be able to plug a USB dongle into a USB port, and you're done.

Along with the USB Dongle, you also get the included backup managr software, and this piece of software is what does the work once the dongle is plugged in. Once you've plugged in the PS3 modchip, you then have to install the Backup Manager. It will show up as a new icon under your GAMES menu.

Once the backup manager is installed on to the menu of the PS3, any time you insert a game disc, it will ask you if you wish to install it on to the PS3 hard drive. Once selected, you can see the progress bar as your game is being installed on the Playstation 3 hard drive.

The time for install varies naturally, based on how large or small the game is on the disc, but I’ve found it to take no more than just a few minutes for many of the newest games to install.

And now the fun begins. Once you've installed the games you want on your hard drive, simply load up the backup manager again, and you're all set and ready to start playing. Once you're back in the backup manager, just push the button on your controller to load the game you want to start playing.

It’s faster to play games from the internal hard drive because there’s virtually no load times. Games load about 5x - 10x faster from the hard drive then they do from the disc itself. You will, as I said, notice huge increases in load times, but most of all, you will notice how much faster you go from one level to the next with the PS Jailbreak.

Whether you already have a PS3, or are planning to buy a PS3 sometime in the near future, make sure you get yourself the PS Jailbreak too - you won't regret it. Not only will it let you start playing your games faster, it will also help you protect your expensive PS3 game discs from getting damaged from scratches and regular handing.
