Yes, I admit I may have misread your post, but where do you get off on calling me a fool? So what if you got your little xkey on your 360 you ****ing warez whore it doesn't mean you know ****. So allow me to school you a little to show you the fool really is. At least this fool can google answers to questions that he does not know. You want USB 3.0 support. You claim you have it on your little xkey. Well first of let me start by explaining how fast every method really is and then you tell me is USB 3.0 is really needed jackass. Your 360 DVD drive is a DL DVD rom (as almost everyone knows). This drive has an average maximum transfer rate of 15.85 MBps. The PS3's Blu Ray drive has a transfer rate of 9 MBps. Ok so now we all know that HDD loading is faster but how much good will it do a smart guy like you? Well USB transfer rates are 12 mbps for USB 1.1, USB 2.0 has a maximum of 480 mbps (maximum throughput is 35 MBps), and USB 3.0 can actually perform up to 5 gbps (625 MBps). Now I listed maximum speeds which you are very unlikely to ever see. I can see why you have such a hard on for USB 3.0. Now the issue I have with this whole scenario is why would you want to spend more for a USB 3.0 compliant HDD when USB 2.0 drives are cheaper, and provide more than enough speed? I guess when the money you spend belongs to mommy and daddy then you really don't look for the best bang for buck type of deal. USB 2.0 provides almost 4 times the transfer rate of the BD drive alone, yet you want to cry about USB 3.0. Just because you spent more of mommy and daddy's money then you had to for USB 3.0 doesn't mean that you needed to or even should have. Now since you know so much about 360 (you keep mentioning it even though this is a PS3 related device discussion) then you would know about the option Microsoft added a while back that lets you cache an entire game to your HDD. Now that is sata which is faster than the 360 disc drive. Now did you know that some games have stability issues when this feature is used? Don't believe me? Go look it up for yourself. So you want to throw USB 3.0 into the mix. Well how much faster are your load times really? I almost bet you try and come up with some bull**** story to tell us but truth be told your load times are a second or two faster at best. So really high transfer rates cause issues with some games when using HDD, but you want to go buy the fastest USB drive you can buy with your parents money so that you can really enjoy stability issues with some of your games, and an entire 2 seconds in faster loading. Just because the drive is capable of such high speeds doesn't mean you will ever get to take advantage of them. You have fun with that while I use a cheaper USB drive that is faster than the optical drive, yet more stable, and that I bought with my own money. You want to come into this thread and start with Greg, then you want to call me a fool. Well you picked 2 of the worst people on this site to try and start some bull**** with. I have seen comments about how you are a "million times smarter", and "you aren't scared" and "blah blah herp derp I love sucking **** to pay for my USB 3.0 drives when my mom is low on cash because of her weekend coke bender on the corner where she met my real father" How about pointing out your own flaws instead of making up things to make yourself feel better. I wouldn't have said a word to you if you had not started with the insults. Why even mention fear if you aren't scared? This is the internet and you pull that whole " I aint scared" crap. ***** you are probably scared of your own shadow.... you know the shadow you see in the middle of the nightafter waking up covered in your own urine because you are probably (or will be) some 35 year old virgin bed wetter still living at home spending his parents money and jumping on the internet daily to share with the entire community full of people that dont give a **** about your fears, or how smart you think you are. If talking like you are somebody over an internet discussion board makes you feel better about life then I will pretend like I am happy for you. Unlike you, this is how I am all the time. I dont give a **** about what anyone thinks on the internet or in real life. I can be one of the nicest people here until you want to call me a name because I misread a post. I cant wait to see the day you misread and quote a post so I can blast your ass on it. Heaven forbid I make a mistake. but now that I went back and re read the post you made that I replied to Well there is a simple answer....because IT ISN'T NEEDED FOR THE DEVICE TO RUN AS INTENDED. So they are rquired to put in a more expensive USB controller because you demand it? Do you actually think USB 2.0 is going to give you worse performance than the optical drive? Is more money really worth 2 seconds faster than USB 2.0 which is still faster than the native optical drive? You know what..... You have fun with your xkey and USB 3.0 drive. I will have fun with my MFW PS3, Jtag 360, tri nand RGH slim 360, and the many other hacked consoles I have around my house. At least with my devices I can enjoy homebrew, and appreciate user generated content made free for the underground console communities instead of only supporting piracy and ripping off devs that put in a lot of time for their work. Before you say it yes I have pirated, but there are things I appreciate more than piracy. You only care about piracy because if you gave 2 ****s about homebrew, or the community then you would have saved yourself some money and just RGHed your box, but money isn't an issue when you are spending money earned from prostitution. At least if I pirate something I go out and buy it...always have, always will. You have a warez only box and probably don't buy games because you are spending your money on unnecessary **** LIKE USB 3.0!!!!!

Sorry I fell asleep reading your rant. What were you saying again?

I will shorten it for you. You are no where near as smart as you think you are, and you are a plague that should go spread your herpes over at ps3iso since all you give a damn about is looking like a jackass and playing warez. If that isn't simple enough for you then your brain is even less functional than I originally thought.

in short....

usb 3.0 is pointless for this application and to complain about its absence is nonsensical

include it and prices go up = people complain about the price
omit it = people complain about its absence

complainers will find a reason to complain, period.

The trade off in which you speak is bad for anyone that isn't some warez junkie. Ok update with your little ODDE (that isn't even confirmed real since there are discrepancies with the info and video) and enjoy warez and PSN on OFW. Well the reason your MFW exists in the first place is because of Sony removing Linux and our ability to play with homebrew. If you don't believe me go check out the ps3 history and you will see that the ball started rolling after OtherOS was removed. So the trade off isn't that bad huh? Tell that to Marcan and f0f, better yet tell that to Graf or Gleveland for returning what was stolen from us. Carry your ass over to ps3iso because it is obvious what you are around for. The tradeoff ****ing sucks for anyone that gives a **** about homebrew or the sacrifices some devs have made to give you what was taken from you. Go tell Graf the trade off isn't that bad.

I was explaining this to someone else that did not have much of an idea as to how this work. Even you, BobbyBlunt was a noob at some point or another and some people took the time and effort to educate you on something. It is called passing knowledge and insights to others. You obviously forgot that, but hopefully someday you will learn it again, and others will be thankful for this. as for CFW and XKey....apples and oranges my friend, and what might be good for some may not be good for others. So please take the time to read and question things, for if you would have asked me about my USB 3.0 comment, I would have answered you and maybe just maybe we would have learn something from each other instead of this going back and forth which proves nothing. Please note, how much care I am putting into not hurdling insults , unless you have something relevant to say, then please keep quiet.

I own both a Wasabi Add on and the Xkey. The wasabi has eSata transfer rate and the xkey has USB 2.0, and the difference in game loading is significant. The Xkey has been out of a while for the xbox using 2.0, but the industry is moving to USB 3.0, so when I question that, it was more like why wouldnt they future proof this by adding the controller. Wasabi did it with the eSata and the price is on part with the Xkey. not a complain, but a statement.

Well for one I for one understand that everyone is a noob at some point so at least that we can agree on. I am grateful to every single person that helped me learn something new or showed me the proper way of doing something. Passing insight and knowledge to others....ummm I can point you to an IRC server that will confirm that I indeed do help others. I help other people way more than these little bash fests that you just witnessed. Now you have just struck another nerve with me. Keep quite?!?!? I get called a fool and I am expected to just roll over and shut my mouth? I have a given birth right to say whatever I want, whenever I want, wherever I want. If you stick around you will notice that I am not one to walk away quietly from a confrontation. This didn't even need to be a confrontation. If you had left calling me a fool out of your post, then I may not have taken it as an insult and fired back.

Regardless of how you feel most of the regular members here like me, and if they don't they can at least respect that I have wasted an insane amount of my personal time helping other people just out of boredom and satisfaction of knowing that I am doing the same that was done for me. I told you I can be a really nice guy, but don't push me. Stick around, see how a lot of us are, and maybe, just maybe you will understand why many of us are the way we are, we may even start to grow on you.

I'm done with this argument and I will be the bigger man and walk away if you dont mention me again in this thread I can understand jumping the gun over another member's mistake but when I see a little feud with you and a staff member, then I get dragged into it much later, then yes, I am going to retaliate. I have had to apologize for snapping on people just because they misread a post of mine and decided to say some smartass comment like what I was guilty of in this situation with you. I will not apologize because I don't think you deserve one, and I am not going to ask for one because I dont give a ****. You tell me to take the time to question things, but why would I question what is obvious, there are things you have no respect for that you should respect. Warez is part of the game, I have been known to acquire things every so often, but warez is also the least of my worries. Sitting down with my kids to show them what awesome games I got to play when I was a kid thanks to the emulators running on my modded box, running linux even though Sony tried to take away a feature I paid for (yes I knew it would be possible when I purchased my PS3 and I was an early adopter and user no matter how slow it is compared to a normal desktop), being able to watch HD content without having to convert or leave my PS3 on thanks to showtime, or any other piece of homebrew I have ever opened that I have left out (I left out many things that I have got to enjoy in my time playing with console mods) is satisfaction enough for me even if warez were not part of the deal. I am not anti warez, but I am anti warez only.

All you had to do was mention me in a post and tell me that I needed to reread your post....none of this would have had to happen at all. Instead I might have apologized and corrected the issue. You have a good day because mine is going to be awesome

[crazelunatic]

I am not anti warez, but I am anti warez only.

I hope you don't take this the wrong way but warez or not if its free (and doesnt harm your device) and its on the internet most people will download it lol. I know im the type of person that does both but im willing to bet there are more people like us than say someone who just wants to download whats copyrighted and popular.

Nah I understand how it works LOL. There is just so much to appreciate with a modded console and these people that do not care for anything but warez are not only missing out on a whole other world of awesome things, but these are the type that will not buy anything. Great pieces of work (art) deserve every dime they earn. I have downloaded several pieces of music, movies, and games that I have turned around and purchased just because the quality deserved the money. I have also downloaded a lot of trash that I am glad I downloaded first and could actually delete now because it has went untouched since it was on my box for 10 minutes.

I am not going to start a piracy debate because we have had and seen several, but giving my opinion that using a modded box for warez and warez only and not supporting masterpieces by sucking it up and making the occasional purchase is wrong. I can understand every aspect of piracy, but homebrew should be respected. Homebrew doesn't just stop at home compiled pieces of software that need modification on the hardware to run, but it goes out to anyone that has even writte a simple hello world. All indie games are essentially homebrew from talent that may never be heard of if it werent for the ability to publish their work. Best part of homebrew is it is usually free, and if it isn't then it is usually explained why it isn't a free software. The term "homebrew" is a lot older than most people realize. Just google the homebrew computer club.

The two will usually always be hand and hand but I find it disrespectful in the way that I saw it worded. Calling trading MFW for OFW with backups and PSN a not so bad trade off is disrespectful to every person that fought for our freedom to do what we want with our devices, disrespectful to people that make software for nothing more than personal satisfaction, and to those that have potentially faced jail time over a personal crusade to restore what may have been taken from the end users (except geohot and his snitch selling out ass). I tend to treat disrespect with the same disrespect.

wow....we've got some real debate potential over here....lets save the skills for when we want to legalize warez..or weed :D
