Bypass Content Restriction Method Found!
 

GeKKo has seemed to have found a small discovery over in the possible TIFF exploit topic . He has managed to bypass the content restrictions on the PS3 without using the password
PS3Rips from Team PS3HaX, has also confirmed this method to work (using diffrent games), this is what he did:

Here are 2 videos of this method in action, courtesy of PS3Rips and Den_John of Team PS3HaX.

Indeed the PS3HaX Scene is on the vurge of finding the first Hello World Exploit, reply below letting us know if this method worked for your PS3 and under which firmware.

hi it worked on my 1.90 firmware with ps1 game madden then i switch it to some dance game and it worked i tried a burt game but it was a no go

Re: Bypass Content Restriction Method Found!
 

DO ps1 games even have content levels?, I think you just mean general swapping that belong in another thread. http://www.ps3hax.net/index.php?topic=1227.60

Re: Bypass Content Restriction Method Found!
 

Would this method work to enable running PAL on NTSC (or vice versa) ? Or is this something that is actively hard-coded onto the PS3?

Would this enable running PAL PS1 / PS2 games on my Japanese NTSC machine !

Nice job guys. Keep up the good work.

Re: Bypass Content Restriction Method Found!
 

wow thats some creative thinking guys!

Re: Bypass Content Restriction Method Found!
 

I was just wondering, how does this mean you are on the verge of finding the first "hello world". Indeed you have accomplished something, but was this the result of malforming a tiff ad random or using real code, in which case writing a hello world would be a piece of cake?

Can it be played "YES" or "NO" is the question
 

For the love of GOD this question has come about more times then I can count.

Alot of people ask can the backups be played or not the answer latetly has been a solid NO.

Now I come across this information. So this throw the magical question back up in the air
Can the backups be played YES OR NO make a sticky or something so we are not all confused about this question and keep the status of it updated so we all have one place to check all the time instead of multi threading the same post

Just wanted to report that the Exploit (download here:http://www.ps3hax.net/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=item56) also works for me (1.90, EU) and I also tried to play Resistance with the Security System on Level 7. So insert Rainbow Six: Vegas, open the folder with the TIFF inside, start the game, swap the discs and then remove the Memory Stick. Nothing special but it works

the answer is no.
that exploit just lets one bypass the parental controls of a system, allowing one to play games that are above their level of restriction.
