PS3 Hacking News

Rumor!
A NeoGAF user is reporting that Sony has the abillity to ban hacked PS3s without online access.According to the poster, Sony could ban users once a machine’s connected to the company’s servers, which it apparently does the second the console boots up, and not when it connects to PSN.This is what was written. Might need to get a cuppa, or something:On boot the system contacts the server and uploads the play list etc. this list alone is enough to get anyone that goes online banned as it shows the bootmanger etc. has been running. Here is the list and what they do, I port sniffed this a while ago before I went online with a retail unit >.> because I am not stupid hehe.
fus01.ps3.update.playstation.net > Update Server (sys updates)
mercury.dl.playstation.net > What’s new ads
nsx.np.dl.playstation.net > playstation store preview
nsx-e.np.dl.playstation.net > ads
(main file exchange connections)
us.np.stun.playstation.net > on boot initiates connection
ena.net.playstation.net > SSLv3 connection after above connection
dus01.ps3.update.playstation.net > secondary update attempt (could force updates)
auth.np.ac.playstation.net > SSLv3 authentication server
(destination servers)
service.playstation.net (has multiple IPs if only the ip address is blocked)
(Error Reporting)
creepo.ww.hl.playstation.net (uploads crash reports etc.)
Almost all connections cannot just be port blocked, the port will continue to increment until it connects, you have to block the entire domains.The news after Sony issued a restraining order against GeoHot and hacker group fail0verflow this week for exposing the console’s root key, which has apparently exposed the hardware once and for all.

Sony sues Geohot for making the company "mad"

George “Geohot” Hotz has overnight defended his jailbreaking of PS3, saying he’s being sued by Sony for “making” the company “mad”.Speaking on G4’s Attack of the Show last night, Geohot said that his jailbreak has set “precedent” after his previous victory in jailbreaking the iPhone for the first time.The iPhone hack challenged the law related to such hacking in the US and found it legal, according to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).“Currently the difference is the DMCA says specifically mobile phones, but the same precedent should apply. If they decide a phone is a closed system, where the manufacturer controls all the software that runs on it, if you can Jailbreak one closed system, why can’t you Jailbreak another,” he said.“Right now, still legally, you can go to my website and download my Jailbreak for your PS3.“It lets you install homebrew applications, which have been developed by anyone. You can develop your own application or go download some and put them on your Jailbroken PS3.”Hotz insisted that his jailbreak was not to be used for piracy and said he made a “specific effort” to make sure it was considered not to have done so.“The way piracy was previously done doesn’t work in my Jailbreak. I made a specific effort while I was working on this to try to enable homebrew without enabling things I do not support, like piracy.”Asked why he was being sued by Sony, Hotz said it was for “making Sony mad”.And when asked at the end what was coming next, Hotz joked that PSP2 was on the list.“When does the PSP2 come out? No, I’m kidding,” he said.Sony issued a restraining order against GeoHot and hacker group fail0verflow this week for publishing the console’s root key, which has apparently exposed the hardware once and for all.Yesterday, it was reported that jailbroken PS3 systems could be banned even without PSN access.

Looks like a good advantage for those who wants to make montages and gameplays on their favorite PSP online games.

As of now, there is no release date for it.

The rumored PSP2, coming to Japan in Jan.27?

VG247 and various other websites are all claiming that Sony will announce the PSP2 this month in Japan. January 27th is the date set. This move makes sense as Nintendo is set to release their Nintendo 3DS this year so Sony really need something up their sleeves. That something is the PSP2

VG247 has learnt that Sony it to hold a “business overview and strategy meeting” in Tokyo on January 27, and has been told that Sony will use the event as a reveal platform for PSP2.
Nothing is known of the meeting’s content, but we do know that only “very select press” are attending.
Sources have said this morning that PSP2 will be announced at the showcase.
Sony has declined to comment on the chatter this morning.
In the wake of VG247 publishing this story, MCV has gone live with its own piece claiming “trade sources have confirmed” the console is to be announced at the event.
The console, which is currently under wraps, is expected to be released later this year.
Going by the codename VITA, PSP2 has been in the hands of developers for at least a year. VG247 published the first images of a development kit last November.
Netherrealm Studios and EA have openly said they’ve been working with the machine.

Gearbox: News on Duke dropping early February at the latest
Gearbox has said fans of the Duke can look forward to hearing more about the crass hero towards the end of January, early February.Speaking in the latest issue of EGM, Gearbox head Randy Pitchford told the magazine the public will hear more regarding the release of Duke Nukem Forever around that time.Intel on the title has been a bit scarce since it’s September reveal at PAX Prime, but the world has been promised it’s coming sometime this year. Hopefully, more information on the game’s beta will be included in this update.Regarding that other Gearbox title, Aliens: Colonial Marines, Pitchford told the mag it would not be out in 2011 – which was expected really – meaning we should look for it in 2012 sometime.Check out the latest edition of EGM for more on what Pitchford had to say.
