You know what people say about being too much time being silent (and idle).
Who knows maybe you start to hear better hence you are in complete silence or just ignoring your surroundings. This “phenomena” could happen for 3 reasons:
1) You have something detrimental to say but you choose to keep it.
2) You are watching things evolve and fall apart from a safe distance.
3) You are about to explode in anger.
Maybe those 3 reasons were enough to stay silent, away and watching.
I’m not surprised about what i saw.
I saw setbacks, advances, random fights about being ethical or some tantrum about having morals or not having them at all.So i will state some points that caught my attention and for a while not talk about them them maybe for being “taboo” or knowing that should ignite some ice-cold jab to the ones who don’t read/listen enough.
========================================
Where is COBRA ODE and what happened to 3K3Y?:
Latest news from those venomous snakes (weird fixation on them if you ask me) was on = 4 - 04 - 2013.
Showing that awful PCB and some W.I.P.Hence 3K3Y done their move and i have to give them some Kudos for releasing their product and having 3 reviews. Most important one is from Brakk3n.
They never removed this from their website but they remove them from features:
*We are working on hardware methods for extracting keys from PS3′s already on 4.x firmware.*
Both of them keep claiming that they are working on hardware methods for those lost in limbo that have as 4.x OFW and they can’t do pretty much anything with their retail consoles, only play on PSN with retails.
But seems or it’s only me that it’s thinking a little out of the box about Cobra that they went too far with their own statements:
2k,2k5k,3k and 4k series slim and super slim consoles. Cobra ODE is the first truly universal PS3 ODE bringing maximum convenience to end users and resellers alike.
Really?…the only one who got balls to release some product and avoid getting butchered for not delivering some solution to 3K/4K users were 3K3Y.
Don’t get me wrong here im just using each *company* statements to try to figure out who is trying so hard not to lie to end users and lure brainwashed or just *i don’t want to read and just buy* future costumers to their own ranks.Oh almost forget that one…yeah that one! E3 PS3 glitcher and E3 Drive EMU Board which for the first time they don’t promised “free gifts” for the ones lucky enough to pre-order “it”. (Insert random adjective here).
"Free gifts"
=================================
It’s just another web of lies?:
They are expecting to PS4 and Xbox 720 release (nothing new here) and the BAM you will probably get all those free solutions that got “encapsulated” all this years just to make more money.
Im not saying that someone hide the “key” and just play dumb all this time.
Just stating something that probably and most of us have a “hunch” that eventually will happen.No need to get more attention on PS3 anymore and “they” (connect dots if you don’t want to i don’t blame ya’) eventually will give some green light to make pretty much the f@$ we want with our systems.
Hey! but watch it! don’t be so naïve and expect some softmod solution.
Or you don’t remember PS2 with chip Matrix how many years have passed until someone can run stable backups, etc.Random leaks will start to appear on god forsaken places with weird usernames and pirates as brew lovers finally (and probably) will get along at last.
========================
Last thing:
Many HAX users, i mean people who help other people on the board.
I think they are TIRED of replying the same question all the time.3K and 4K series of PS3:
1) NO DOWNGRADE POSSIBLE. (until someone decides to risk his/her neck).
2) NO JAILBREAK.
3) NO BACKUPS.
4) NO HOMEBREW.
Regards.
Yours truly. (lol)

It's ok that's the main rule of that game and honestly someone *****ing about that fact is an hypocrite.
We can rant/***** about Cobra/3K3Y/E3 failing to deliver something that they are stating on their own website not on some personal blog entry.
So how much credibility are on those statements and then the final product?.
Or is something to justifiy some product that will hit the market with poor sales.
So their words are 100% questionable and debatable and prone to be smoke and mirrors.
That's how i see it. (personal opinion).

Cobra ODE will come, sooner or later, but it's going to happen, it's just a matter of time, and pretty sure that by the end of the next month (May) it'll be available.
04-30-2013
03:23 AM
Im not saying that Cobra ODE will not get released, i'm saying that probably they will fail to deliver.
Universal?..E3 has some similar motto *WORKS ON ALL PS3*.
Meanwhile the only one who is on the market = 3K3Y.

They might have been waiting for months and even not update theirs fw for some wrong hope.
Stuck into ofw is not that bad if you are gamer, you might even play more and better on fews games you own physical copy than end up playing little of everything.
At this point of life cycle of ps3, if you have only interest on games, with second hand prices and no fear of being banned, and regular free time available for play them, OFW is better imo.
You don t have to worry about others users using your ps3 as in other thread it was mentionned again someone updated it accidentally, less potential brick, and lot of others reasons.
So don t expect or wait for something you might spend more time around it than really using it, not to mention the long journey you might have if your ps3 is banned after.

As I started reading this article, I quickly discerned that it was going nowhere but a pointless rant. So after a few paragraphs I decided to see if Hellsing9 was in fact the author... I'm not sure why he hate's hardware solutions that come out or don't come out but he's always making long post's about them that are irrelevant. No news to write about?
04-30-2013
10:12 AM
hells, trust me on this one, Cobra will deliver, 3K/4K users have nothing to worry about, ok, maybe they need to figure out how to get the 140 bucks that's going to cost Cobra ODE + the external HD.

God if 3k3y, Cobra & E3 release there ODDE or what ever its called i will kick all of you haters who say they suck .... As long there is no other solutions for 2,3,4k consoles we will pay . Cuz its better to pay once 100$ then every single time for a game 50$
. And for that for me its way more chipper , cuz you don`t leave in poor country like mine to see what is to get a Game that its 1/3 of your monthly payment.

Long post?, it's just a simple recollection of those 3 "companies" statements.
I just made a quick revision about what they are promising to end-user.
Hence i don't work for them, i can voice my opinion because this could be useful to someone.
About the news, don't worry sometimes we are dry sometimes we have plenty and sometimes i rant.
I don't see nothing wrong about it.
Also in case you didn't notice because im the author of this article, i also mentioned about 3K/4K no downgrade possible.
We (anyone) can compare Cobra with E3 or E3 with Cobra and 3K3Y but what's the problem with having some "broken-english"?.
As if speaking better english is more gullible what they say...come on.
The pattern is crystal clear, we saw this with DRM dongles and now with this = Hardware flashers.
Since im in Hax i made a recollection of different statements hence i frontpaged many of them, i don't see anything wrong there either.
I saw up to this day that they keep failing and they are becoming even more obvious than before.
The one who to fails to see that or do not care about what this "companies" have to say...well. Don't blame them though.

People keep overlooking the fact that that if these devs can make this work on newer consoles then they could most likely bring CFW to them as well. It's the same lie they told us when they said that tb and other such devices were necessary to play new games. It's the same reason certain devs were so angry about the CEX/DEX method release. Quit justifying what they're doing. The support they receive is the biggest reason why things aren't released into the public. I for one am not going to pay for something I've already paid for.

I understand that many users read frontpage articles and sometimes avoid to discuss the topic because they don't like to do so.
Sometimes we face "dry news" syndrome where don't have enough information or releases to everybody to see/download and enjoy.
Other times i make this type of articles because i feel that even not being a release or something that will not lure too much attention as a release i take it as a bunch of info that i gathered to show anybody compeled enough to read it.
Another factor is that each s-mod [MENTION=141843]manster[/MENTION] [MENTION=7773]GregoryRasputin[/MENTION] and Pirate (admin of Hax) have their own way of posting news.
They are the one responsable to show the latest big thing or some rumour to keep readers awake and well informed.
My way sometimes is erratic, insane and hard to keep it clear enough.
I can relate to that hence since i am here. I recieved good feedback, neutral and negative responses depending on what i posted.
As time passed by my alter-ego get used to that kind of responses and well i started to ignore certain comments to avoid ending closing the thread.
But well seems that my fixation to show something that's pretty obvious and it's on plain sight sometimes (or most of the times) did not work as expected but least i tried to expose something that i believe was interesting enough.

On 4th May they will post another update of there device trying to convince People that is comming soon when in reality all they are doing is probably DRM-ing the Thing to death or just don't know how to get the drive key propertly.
Pathetic if you ask me.

Lol, I swear nintnedo systems has the best community when it comes to mods and all those modchips and stuff
the wiikey team already said there's probably a new modchip coming from them for the wii u soon. At least they are more reliable >_>

It s not "once 100$" but more "once every fews weeks/months".
There are some people who might have end up with so many USB dongles than they can use it for enlight theirs streets.
And not to mention how much can it cost you once you are ban.
Also, current BD emu don t exactly work/emu as native drive, even with much more acess and triggering you can have from complete CFW than with ODE.
It s really not my concerns but by buying this sort of device with theirs conditions, you directly help the next drm device thing to appear on any other console.
From Hax user, it can sound like hate and you might prefer to think your money is your own drive, not any other users should told you to do what you can do. Right, but them, you also deserve better than helping the bad guy and not being able to wait for more convenient and cheap solution, if there are one ever.

wasabi 360 for the xbox works without any cfw so we will hope that the ps3 glitcher will be inexpensive and will work like a charm.

So, I just registered, cause I felt the urge to reply something to this.
It looks like the Scene is stuck in a way many scenes were:
PSP: Before Dark_Alex/M33 began releasing CFWs, the only possible way to use Homebrew was Downgrading to 1.5 . Actually, the Downgrader was blocked by FW Upgrade 2.01 . During this period, there was a Dual Booting device sold or at least it was announced. I'm not sure about this, but at least I think, those who released this device did definetely know about ways to install CFWs to the PSP BEFORE the first POC Release by Dark_Alex
iOS: As for now, most of the Hackers keep some exploits for themselves to develop new Jailbreaks. If they find the needed Exploits, they release something to public, withholding their own Exploits. In my opinion, this a really a good solutions to Homebrew/Modding Development.
If I compare those 2 Scenes to the PS3 Scene, I'm really losing faith, because those, who can do innovative work for the scene just try do make money, either, because they mistakenly think, they can avoid being sued, or they are just a****s who want to withhold their findings without even trying to give some hope to the scene.
To give this some Credit: IF there only was a Hardwaresolution to the 2k5 - 4k Models, I'll spend the 100 Bucks like I did with my PS2. BUT IF those teams who want to sell Cobra/3K3Y know a Softmod way and don't share it with the scene, their really f*** B*** without any honour because they make money with other people doing piracy.
I'm sorry, if i got things wrong, I'm not so much into this for now, but that's the way it looks like to new "Users" like me.
Because of that, I really appreciate the good work, many Developers are doing to bring the CFWs for FREE to the old PS3 Versions.
I hope I didn't get this article all wrong!
Greats

But like i said i have to give 3K3Y some kudos because they risk to release the product when in features said = "3K/4K series working on it".
On the other side COBRA Ode is teasing with that pic....pathetic.
It's business a "dirty" one.

So we're all just going to pretend like that wasn't one of the worst written articles ever? Its pretty hard to respect the opinion or beliefs of someone who can't even write an article that doesn't make my brain hurt every third sentence. Seriously, why would anyone "frontpage" such dribble nonsense?

All I said was that the article was written poorly. I also said that it makes it hard to respect someone's opinion when they can't even execute it without making readers have to decipher the meaning of a sentence time and time again. Fan-boy much?

He doesn't have 100% of the English Language covered yet, but so what, there are people that were born in England, have lived in England their whole lives and cant even read or write, same with America, same with Ireland, same with Australia or any other native English speaking country.
hellsing9 knows THREE languages, how many do you know ?
Also as a human, he is far better than you.

Well excuse me if I am incorrect, but you appear from your posts in this thread and the ones in the thread you started, to have a massive (and Yes, I do mean MASSIVE) superiority complex.
Leaving aside for the moment your asinine comments in this one, let's all focus on your own thread shall we oh God like entity with the 'little man syndrome'...
You ask a question whilst giving absolutely zero details which may help people give you assistance, then when you are pulled up for that basic childish omission, you proceed to act as if it is they and not you who is in the wrong.
I wonder if you were/are a spoilt little brat who got his own way all the time by throwing a tantrum? That may have worked (or still does?) in your little bubble, but trust me 'friend', in the real world where you have to deal with adults (who in many ways far outstrip your meager skills and level of intelligence and social skills) if you continue down that infantile path then your backside will be raw from the verbal lashings you receive.
It did make me smile to see you use the word 'whelp', as that is exactly how you come across to me and many others here.
As to your complaints with this thread, if you struggle to understand something that does not follow perfect grammar, spelling, and syntax then by all means find the nearest exit and leave as your childish behaviour is tedious to the adults in here who have better things to do than wipe your bottom for you.
Have a nice day y'all

As many other users which i know (not personally) you already know [MENTION=7773]GregoryRasputin[/MENTION] [MENTION=101277]Wolfie708[/MENTION] that even my having an excellent english bashing comments with BS are inevitable.
You two are the ones who have my back for so much time.
I really don't care about my reputation but i do care about HAX (some troll will jump and say: "if you care for HAX, then LEAVE.) but im still here.
I believe in progress and i understand that my english is not the best but many core users of this community understood what i wanted to say with this language barrier.
Haters gonna hate and i stick with people who are good enough for me and i think on some point good enough for them because i believe in that information do not 100% perfect redacted or i have to own a diploma to do so.
It's about sending a message (Joker) :P
