top of the article said removed ps3 game support. I started laughing cuz I would actually beileve they would make a mistake like that.

Then I kept reading and I stopped laughing.
What do they mean by "it was removed in 4.30"?
Do they mean that the dependencies Cobra relied on in the firmware were removed or something else?

I was wondering how/why the hell they would make it where you could not play PS3 games on only non BC consoles. Then i read on and saw it was PS2 games. Still good for a giggle tho

My guess is they could get the 2.60 ps2_softemu.self working on 3.55, but they can't get it working on 4.30.

Anyone who bought a cobra to play ps2 games on their non BC PS3 is very likely to have been disappointed with the compatibility and performance, so it's not a huge loss.

Sony got rid of there code after 3.60 if I am not mistaken I remember reading something like that on this sight Sony need more $ so they got rid of it or didn't want to look like fools because cobra got Ps3 games working on non backwards compatible Ps3,s
