German Hacker, StreetSkaterFU, has succeeded in loading back-ups in the Playstation 3. He has in a video(video is below), that the Warhawk Disc is inserted in the PlayStation 3, and is loaded. The game Warhawk is not installed on the PS3 yet, but once the game started nothing will happen and you will see only see the XMB. Then Warhawk is suddenly loaded. If you don't believe this video well Alek, and mathieulh said it's real:
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 game bd
-- 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:
I cannot 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 to do it then, 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 discs
THIS IS JUST A PROOF OF CONCEPT - NOT A PROJECT FINISHED!

I'm not getting this. So does it mean that I can play PS3 games without having the disc inserted?
HungryHungryHippo
.............? Is this pretty much telling you that you CAN bootlet ps3 games?
Phatkav
That's what I want to know.
If I just need to like use the game disc once then I can just rent the games do this and play them forever without buying them

It means the same as with the 360. You hack the firmware and get a harddrive and download games to it and play without legit disc.
