Remove the drm and you could just run the cfw on it's own and never have to plug in a dongle. But the drm they have added means you have to. Hence the dongle should not really be mandatory and is 100% a money making market, and you are forced to buy the dongle to use the cfw. And before the dildo-lovers post that TB is a company and they need to make money; making backups s still illegal in many places. And isnt $ony a company, arent TB just stealing money from $ony and game publishers and developers by allowing piracy? After-all TB's only process is to pirate games, it doesnt do anything else!

Memor32 is a memory card for the ps2 that requires it's own firmware with no way to flash on the ps2, granted the only way to mod a ps2 is via a modchip.

Plus you could say a lot of the same things about swap magic as you can tb, all it does is backups, the same as tb but tb also enables homebrew and I don't think swap magic enables that but memor32 does.

I'm not into the Sony hacking scene as much as the xbox scene so I'm not 100% sure about all the products and mods available for ps2.

The point is that it is possible to run cfw without a dongle, but TB have set it up so that you have to buy a dongle.

I doubt memor32 did that, that was needed in order to run an exploit.

Hence why people hate TB, they are not in it for the scene, they are in it for the money.

I really dislike how some people think that the dongle is necessary. i'm sure they'll figure out how to implement certain fixes for certain games like how tb seems to (i don't think it's just eboots cause sometimes i think it calls for 3.73+ files)

Also, i swear someone said on the tb site, it links to here. Why would they do that other than knowing we're like the last competent site? I have a hard time not helping people fix games but i think i'm getting better at it. I posted somewhere else wondering if i should help them cause i like pointing out that a non TB user actually helps more than someone who owns it. Most people seemed to say i shouldn't. I remember back in the day (like it was so long ago :P) java exploits. I don't really remember if people got backups to play that way, but they got some games and stuff going. then, when dongles came out, it was like the only way for you to get into service mode, install homebrew and play backups. Now, well, it's unnecessary but forced upon people by a company that is unethical and creators that are unmoral. I miss the days when the hot topic was piracy...does anyone with TB actually buy the games and dump them themselves? I know that probably not many people do in general on kmeaw and rebug, but i know some do. I love backups when load time is cut in a quarter; it blew my mind how fast Tony Hawk's Project 8 loaded, that was a chore every time you booted it up, changed characters, etc. I don't think they knew how to utilize the blu-ray disc by just repeating the information on different spots, having optional installs, etc. I think kmeaw/rebug is the best way to play backups, because if you want to play a move game on a slim that is backed up on an external drive, it's pretty much impossible because all the slots are taken. Then again, i don't think it's too expensive to buy a usb slot hub.

Thats because TB is the only thing that really is happening in the scene right now (unfortunately).

I don't know, snowy did release that edat decryption program.

just like @Cheesethief said, that edat program was just released. i see that having some great possibilities.
when the water hole is poisoned, it's easy to see people dying off slowly but not see someone make a cure until it's released.
You just gotta look a little deeper. I *might* start copying over the daily builds or w/e of emus here. I haven't checked for those for a while because i've been occupied with other games.

Everyone is talking about TB here because that is (unfortunately) the only thing happening at the moment in the PS3 scene.
However, since I bought a used N64 and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, I feel no need to upgrade my console or to play the latest games.
Ocarina of Time is a must @Adamsville

thats the thing: are we ps3hax or ps3warez? such a statement from the admin is just wrong from my point of view!
