    Dust 514 has been in the works for a long time, footage of it first being shown in 2008, but slowly it is creeping towards a release date and to help the company before it is released, you can join the closed beta, here is some information on the game:

    Dust 514 is an upcoming free-to-play console-based MMOFPS set within the Eve universe, developed by CCP Games. It was announced on August 18, 2009 at the Game Developers Conference in Cologne, Germany and was introduced with a short trailer featuring realtime footage of the game. This game will be the first game developed by CCP since Eve Online, and it is currently being developed by CCP’s Shanghai studio. According to Hilmar Veigar Petursson, the CEO of CCP Games, the game is being developed exclusively for the PlayStation 3.

    The game features users fighting ground battles in wars on planets in the Eve Online universe. According to a preview by Edge, the events that happen in this game will affect the EVE Online universe. Battles in this game can also determine who controls various planets in the EVE universe, and users in DUST 514 can interact with users from the EVE universe such as providing mercenary assistance during planet battles. In an interview conducted by Simon Carless of Gamasutra, Petursson said that he hopes “these [Eve Online and DUST 514] communities will meld over time”, bridging the two environments. He also wanted to establish a relationship between the flying-oriented nature of Eve Online and the infantry-oriented nature of DUST 514, saying “while the fleet does the flying, the infantry does the dying”. According to Game Informer, this gives fans and players of Eve Online a new challenge in testing their FPS skills.Brandon Laurino Executive Producer of Dust 514 has stated that there will not be a set number of maps at launch, “We are covering literally a universe of planets, so there’s thousands of different maps and they’re all available to everyone who’s playing.” Laurino revealed. They will not have to be paid for however “There won’t be some section of the universe that’s blocked off.”
    The EVE Online-inspired MMOFPS will be making an appearance on Sony’s PlayStation Vita device but as a companion app rather than a full-blown game. CCP’s Brandon Laurino explained “At the most basic level, you can do transactions on the market, equip and customize your character, your vehicles, set up strategies with your friends and corporation members — all of these sort of companion functions on the go.” Laurino also says that the DUST Vita launch date has yet to be determined. “As we continue to explore what the possibilities are between Vita and PS3, of which there are many, we’ll keep updating the app with stuff like that over time,” he explained.

    Source Of Above Quote

    Here is some info from the Dust 514 site:

    • DUST 514 is a PS3-exclusive persistent shooter focused on intense infantry combat augmented by powerful vehicles. Uniquely, it is set in, and directly connected to, the thriving player driven universe of EVE Online.
    • Engage in fierce firefights on the surface of planets spread throughout an interconnected universe populated by hundreds of thousands of EVE and DUST players. The outcome of battles in DUST 514 has repercussions for the world and other players; for better or worse, every minute you spend in New Eden means something.
    • Death is a learning experience. Fight, die, and develop your skills to become the character you want to be. Use skill points earned as you play (and even when you’re offline) to train skills that improve your battlefield effectiveness; make you proficient in the use of specialized gear; or enhance your ability to modify and upgrade existing gear.
    • Claim your rightful place in the galaxy! Form mercenary corporations with friends in DUST and EVE and work together to conquer planets and control entire star systems. Secure supply lines as you defend and attack locations on planets throughout New Eden.
    • SK earned in battle can be spent on the primary market to stock up on the latest items – weapons, turrets, equipment, armor, and modules – or search for bargains on the secondary player-driven market. Customize existing gear or purchase advanced and prototype weaponry and equipment for that extra edge on the battlefield.

    Here I leave the new version of BD TOOL MA who now includes the basic graphical interface, the ability to save data to any USB connected on the console port as well as the ability to detect and extract the serial model BD reader that you have in your PS3 along with the old features of the first version with the MKB and the HRL.

    You can download from here:

    In some cases the standard model may not be obtained but that’s is sometimes because the BD is not the original from the console.

    Details on this version.

    Implemented basic Graphical interface.
    Fixed bugs when extracting HRL or MKB Version.
    Now dumping and working with any usb connected to any port.

    Sony finally made a move regarding TB, seems that they giving a big headache to the TB team messing with the way the eboot’s are packaged…Nice one $ony 

    Recently, Sony has been making some major changes behind the scene in the way eBOOT’s are packaged as result it is getting tougher and tougher to get these latest PS3 games running on the last currently available Jailbreak v3.55 firmware, whereas the games and console themselves are already up to the v4.11 system design.

    But fear not as the ‘True Blue‘ team has been hard at work over the last two months on this problem, and today they have released v2.62 of their dongle firmware which will again able you to fully enjoy the hottest new games being released on your PS3 console designed for v4.11!

    10 – 5 – 2012 True Blue dongle firmware v2.62 has been released. Changes include: Fixed a major game compatibility issue which will allow the release of several popular, previously incompatible titles Improved system stability Recently, EBOOT patches have slowed due to a compatibility issue which prevented recent games from running on 3.55 CFW. This issue has been resolved as of this firmware release, thus we strongly recommend that everyone update their True Blue dongles as soon as possible in anticipation of the upcoming batch of releases.

    As we all know, Sony is the creator of our beloved PlayStation consoles, from the PS1 glory days, to the present day problems with the PS3.

    During the past two years, Sony have been really struggling and this couldn’t be more evident in the console section, with a massive $2.8bn loss in that section for the past year, now this could be an ongoing problem from Sony’s decision to use UMD on the PSP, or from the fact that they released the PS3, a somewhat difficult system to develop games for, games like Fallout and Skyrim do not play as well on the PS3 as they do on the Xbox 360, or perhaps it could be problems discussed in hellsing9′s thread.

    Here is a quote from the source, regarding the financial loss:

    Sony’s Consumer Products and Services division suffered an operating loss of ¥229.8 billion ($2.8bn) for the full year ended March 2012, compared to a profit of ¥10.8 billion in 2011.

    Sales were down 18.5 per cent to ¥3.13 trillion ($38.2 billion) from ¥3.84 trillion, with all segments of the division – games, PCs, LCD televisions and digital cameras hit by poor sales. Sony’s price reduction of the PlayStation 3 and lower sales of the PlayStation 2 were singled out specifically in the games business.

    Hardware sales were down across the business compared to last year, with Sony selling 13.9 million PlayStation 3 units compared to 14.3 million the previous year.

    PSP hardware sales were down from 8 million to 6.8 million and PlayStation 2 console sales dropped from 6.4 million to 4.1 million.

    For the entire Sony corporation, sales were ¥6.49 trillion ($79.1bn) for the full year, with a net loss of ¥456.7 billion ($5.74 billion), compared to a loss of ¥259.6 billion the previous year.

    Well Sony, i will refer to you like as an individual or person (to make it more easy to read) but you are a big enterprise ergo a Big boy.
    I know im a number on your design board.

    But you know what? :
    I will remark what i’ve done for you as a consumer of your products and what you do for me as company.

    1) Buy your system to then have OtherOS option removed:

    I can relate to that, i can feel that you were afraid about the option of installing an open source SO was annoying to you.
    Hence you was *harmed* by that open source, and then what did you do?.
    Close your doors and not anyone to enter your *world*.

    2) Get *fresh* titles to play in PSN:

    At first i was happy to play online with my friends and almost forgot the option that you removed because you wanted so. (I respect that).
    But then PSN was hacked back on 2011, since then i can trust you anymore.
    Im not angry, im just disappointed by the fact that private data saw the light and got in hands of users with dubious intentions.

    In fact hence what happened i was *naive* enought to keep using PSN.

    3) Get nice and cool content on my PS3 connecting to PS3 Store:

    Shame that i don’t live in US or UK to get access to the nice features that PSN has.
    It’s a shame too that not even a decent browser was placed or programmed since the one i have it’s very rudimentary. I can’t even see the youtube videos that i love in HQ.

    4) I even bought more original games:

    With the sad story, that the franchises you have are getting more *slim* as the time passes. I think you know what multiplataform means?.
    Or im the one who is seeing something is wrong here or it seems that you are blind, but not like that lady with the scale. Just blind by your own means, you don’t want to see.

    5) Homebrews:

    Why i can’t have them?, you allow dongles like TRUE-BLUE (and clones) to plug in your own system that condones piracy and still i see nothing happened to them.
    But instead you shutdown with your TOS among other things any possibility to run Homebrews with a lame reason that Homebrews are in fact an act of piracy but not the dongles.
    Sometimes you are too silent, don’t know why..

    6) Secure, Insecurity:

    If you are so insecure, don’t make me feel that way too. Since i know you have flaws (many to count them) but i will be a bad friend if i tell them all.
    I know how to keep secrets and im a person with moral values bue seems that you don’t know or you like to play ignorant on this topic.
    Instead you give me IMPERATIVE updates just to secure yourself, not to secure my privacy/data/saves/trophys/psn games/etc.

    This is how i feel about you:
    You being blinded by some reason that i don’t care but still i buy your products.
    You even don’t let my install my ORIGINAL backups on my OWN PS3 system and my OWN hardrive. (Microsoft has that option for his users).

    You are being rude, and stubborn.
    But i love you.
    And i always will, because you gave so many material to play with and then removed, restricted, and censored it because you wanted that way.

    Im not mad, but being honest sometimes it’s not hard so i can tell you with clean conscience that i don’t understand you and i think i will never will.

    Sincerily yours.

    A PS3 User.

    As many of you know, the only possible way of running Homebrew on the PS Vita, is via the PSP Emulator, using Half-Byte Loader, well it seems that someone has managed to get a Nes Emulator running on the PS Vita Via PS Suite, without the need to use the PSP Emulator, the method is said to use the PS Vita’s SDK that was released to the public as a beta a few weeks ago.

    Here is a quote from the source:

    At this time the game Super Colapse 3 that is used with the current Vita Half-Byte Loader, has been pulled from the Playstation store. There is no know way to exploit the Vita further on this version of the firmware (1.67) . The only way is to use the Playstation Suite Development kit. Fortunetly someone out there has made a NES emulator using the PS SDK.

     

    • You will ned to sign up for the development suite by goind here on your PS Vita browser and clicking Try now then clicking download under section 2. ( this is a Sony site and the download link will launch the PS Store on your Vita)
    • The NES emulator is available for download HERE. (Click the green button to start the download.)
    • You will also need Vita Connect. (will allow you to copy .psspac files from your PC to the Vita)
    • Once you have these two you will need to extract both to a folder somewhere on your pc.
    • The Vita Connect download also contains the source code of the program and a pre compiled program in the “VitaConnector/obj/x86/debug” directory
    • You may need to copy the dll files into that directory from “VitaConnector/lib” directory.
    • Once you have the program running find the file leaf.psspac from the download earlier in this article.
    • Connect your PS Vita using the usb cable to your PC
    • open the Playstation SDK app on the Vita before clicking refresh.
    • Click on “refresh devices”
    • Click on “connect to the device”
    • Click on “upload”
    • Restart PS Suite Dev on your Vita
    • You should now have a “Leaf” game
    • Launch this to play NES
    • NOTE: For whatever reason the emulation only works at 15fps.
    • Leaf controlls[] and X are your A and B buttons Triangle will change the rom that’s loaded. dpad is your movement keys.

    For those of you still playing, Uncharted 2, you can get all the games DLC for free from PSN, at the moment its US only, here is some information:

    If you have managed to stay away from Uncharted 2′s DLC for this long, then now might be the time to download it. Why? Because as of today, all of Uncharted 2′s downloadable content is FREE to download on PlayStation 3.
    As part of Sony’s PlayStation Store update, all of the past add-on content for Uncharted 2 costs nothing. This includes Drakes Fortune Multiplayer Pack (previously $2.99), the Golden Gun Pack (previously $0.99), the PlayStation Heroes Skin Pack (previously $2.49), the Sidekicks Skin Pack (previously $1.49) and the Siege Expansion Pack (previously $2.99).
    Hopefully this move persuades those who haven’t yet had a chance to play the second game to go pick it up. After all, you should play it before you experience the epic-ness of Uncharted 3.
    Drakes Fortune Multiplayer Pack contains six skins namely UDF Drake, UDF Elena, Eddy Raja, Javier, Atoq Navarro and Gabriel Roman. It has two large set maps, The Facility and the Flooded Ruins, from Uncharted: Drakes Fortune title. In addition, the game has 12 PSN trophies and 13 medals.

    Golden Guns Pack contains gold skins for the AK-47 and Beretta weapons.

    PlayStation Heroes Skin Pack contains Sev and a Helghast soldier from Killzone 2. It also has Resistance series Nathan Hale and Chimera, and Coles together with Zeke of inFamous.

    Siege Expansion Pack contains the Siege co-op multiplayer mode, two multiplayer maps, ten bronze PSN trophies and one silver PSN trophy. It also has six character skins, two of which are from Uncharted: Drakes Fortune.

    Sidekick Skins Pack contains six alternate appearances of previously available characters, plus two new villain skins Dillon and Mac.

    Still playing around with the good ole’ PS2? A modder known as “reprep” has managed to unlock games at 4:3 ratio to 16:9 via Codebreaker cheat system.

    To quote:

    Lately on PCSX2 forums widescreen hacks for playstation 2 games started to emerge.

    They are done by built-in game cheat option of pcsx2.

    you can easily go to the thread by googling “pcsx2 widescreen game patches”

    A user on that thread implied it can be done on real ps2 too.

    I tried codes for final fantasy x and after a long struggle i finally managed to enable this widescreen hack on a real console.

    the PNACH files of pcsx2 contain RAW codes. Codebreaker 9.3 accepts raw codes as long as the master code is raw (not CB encrypted) too.

    You can google the game id to find the master code and get the widescreen raw code from the pcsx2 thread i mentioned above. There are ways to manually find these widescreen codes but i don’t have enough info on the subject.

    The aim of this thread is to find out how many of these codes can be used on a real PS2, as they are discovered on pcsx2 and meant to be used on an emulator.

    I have confirmed FF X NTSC-J International to be one of them.

    A working game report should be like

    A) Name and id of the game

    B) What program used (For example Codebreaker 9.3 (HDL patched) etc)

    C) The launching method of the game (Original disc, backup with help of modchip, ESR backup, OPL, HDL)

    D) The code layout

    I will find the working codes and add them to the first post.

    EDIT: I noticed i didn’t explain this hack properly. It makes originally 4:3 games, 16:9. But it is real 16:9 not just stretching 4:3 to 16:9 like TVs do. There might be some glitches or some static backgrounds might stay in 4:3, but so far FFX looks good and the screenshots for other games i saw were great.

    Software developer KDSBest has just recently released, his SPU x86 Emulation tool, here is a quote from the source:

    Hi Community,

    I wanted to contribute to the scene , so I coded a tool that might help the community our members and fellow dev’s.
    This Tool is intended for dev’s so please be careful if you don’t know what you do.
    I will not be held responsible for any harm
    My tool is a emulator for PS3 modules (e.g metldr), it is in pre alpha stage but I thought, it would be great to get some community feedback.
    How to use:
    Not all SPU Commands are implemented yet, but it is easily extendable and I will make it support DMA, all SPU Commands and SPU Mailbox soon.

    First open a .kds file. Check out the metldr.kds to see an example. The rest is like a normal debugger.
    If you put dumps of your reversed functions in the KnownFunctions folder, it will detect it and mark that function for you.

    Just for example Mark the whole cellSpuAesDecryptCbcCfb128 function in HexView in IDA -> Right Click -> Save to File

    One of the biggest plugins of the Year for Showtime is Navi-X. With this plugin, the limit is your imagination.

    Astonishing, right? You never heard of Navi-X? No problem, there's a time for everything. To quote:
    "Navi-X is a 'content aggregator' app that provides access to all kinds of multimedia content, listed on a public directory of user contributed listings or playlists for playing on your TV or PC! Users can link to content and playback video, audio, pictures, podcasts, text, rss and html on the internet and share it with people around the world in seconds! Create fully customizable playlists with backgrounds, logos and icons as well as link to your favorite multimedia on the internet or browse the already existing directory of publicly available content, in one sleek, fast and unified application!"

    During the development time of the plugin, Tyrant was valuable, giving important feedback about what was correct and what was wrong. He knew already Navi-X and that allowed a faster development of the plugin. As of his experience with it, he says to new Navi-X users:
    "Navi-x is awesome once you get to know all the directories and content."
    And after Beta Testing the plugin, Tyrant states that "Navi-x is the one and only solution in Showtime PS3 to watch movies, livetv, pictures and listen to music! A must have!"

    You may ask, What are the features of the plugin? Here it is:

    – PLX Playlists
    - RSS Playlists
    - Flickr XML
    - Video/Processors:
    – If a processor fails (gives error different than "This processor is empty, nothing to do…") add an entry to a local store that must be sent to facanferff
    – TMDB For movies

    - Item Listing:
    – Display information about the date of an item
    – Display URL and Processor if available

    - User Account:
    – Enable/Disable Login Popup
    – Add Video/Playlist to Favorites
    – Remove from Favorites
    – Create Playlist
    – Add to Playlist
    – Enable/Disable Adult Content (in settings page)
    – Automatically add video to History playlist (if it already exists, moves it to top)
    – Set if new playlists should be private or public (History playlist is by default private and can't change in the plugin)

    - Search (needs external keyboard)

    Installation: Download the zip archive (Download) and put it in the normal place for plugins.
    Note: The plugin will be added soon to the repository once andoma can.

    FAQ
    1. Live Streams from playlists are supported in Showtime?
    Yes they are, but they should be in rtmp protocol, there is no support for mms or http live streaming in Showtime. You can watch even TV Channels added from other Navi-X user but I'll
    not tell you where, search Navi-X and you might find it.

    2. There are some sections that says "XBMC Only", I can't use them in Showtime?
    Some of them you can, those entries are labelled like that because the videos contained in those playlists are rtmp link, that XBMC supports while other platforms can't support,
    but Showtime supports it and you can use it as well, you're free to navigate these playlists.

    3. There are some sections that says "Boxee Only", I can't use them in Showtime?
    During development, I faced myself with some playlists labelled like these and some of them didn't work since the feature behind that makes the playlist only supportable for Boxee
    is the HTML support that Showtime can't support, you might try these playlists but most possibly the plugin will not be able to get you the playlist, in these cases you'll get an empty
    playlist.

    4. You talk about Processors in this plugin several time, what are they?
    Well to quote from http://www.navixtreme.com/:
    "The purpose of the processor is to function as an online plugin for Navi-X which produces media playback parameters for a single item,
    normally starting with only the URL of the web page which contains the item. In other words, if a web page has a flash player embedded in it,
    the processor teaches Navi-X how to emulate that site's flash player to get the media in the page to play in Showtime."

    5. When I logged in the first time to Navi-X server, was added some few playlists to my account what should I know about it?
    These created playlists pretend to make easier and better your experience in Navi-X plugin for Showtime. For your privacy, any playlist created by the plugin are saved as Private,
    it means only you can access those, if you want you might change it in navi-xtreme verified user media.
    Currently, these are the playlists created automatically by the plugin:
    - Favorites: Keeps a list of items that you marked as Favorite

    - History: List in which is added a video when you select a video to play and it starts playing, if it gives any error from the Processor part it will be discarded.
    NOTE: Video links that don't play too due to lack of support from Showtime are added too automatically (no way to check it in current Showtime's API)
    NOTE 2: If you play a video that was added already to the playlist History, the plugin will remove the one that exist and insert a new one on top of playlist,
    creating a fresh copy.

    6. What is the status of WatchTV plugin?
    With this new plugin, WatchTV plugin became obsoleted, there's no reason to use anymore the system that WatchTV provided, in this plugin you can watch too Live Streams normally and with
    the advantage of viewing those that were added by other users without having work of setting up a server or using a keyboard to enter a link.

    7. Where can I find facanferff to talk about Showtime?
    facanferff is sometimes in Efnet on channel #showtime, you might try to find him there. There will be there some other helpful people ready to assist you.

    8. How can I give feedback, suggest or report bugs?
    To report bugs you can create a ticket in the official bug tracking managed by facanferff and running in andoma's website (Navi-X – Overview – Home Theater System).
