PS3 Hack enables Remote Play for All Games on Vita

The below video confirms it for PS Vita as we see a YouTuber run Arkham Asylum on his fandangled PS Vita.

The last thing we heard from Playstation about their Remote Play feature is that developers would implement it with their own games as they pleased. It seems that anyone who wants to play it now can easily run custom firmware (in this case 3.55 or 3.41) and register the VITA as a mobile phone and you can instantly stream your game to your phone. Other videos on Homer49's site includes Red Dead Redemption, Alice Madness, Battlefield 3 and a few others including streaming movies straight to his Vita.

While a bit laggy, the custom does it's job and who knows you could never have to pause a game properly forever. You could go to the bathroom, hang out in another room or even play it outside. Even though the Vita has less buttons than your average PS3 controller, the feature of the firmware lets you map portions of your touchscreen to specific buttons and shows how someone's own ingenuity and creativity was able to get a feature that Sony didn't dare give free reign to it's users. Why I'm not 100% sure, but I'm glad this firmware exists.

62.5% of voters think this story ROCKS!

Yet again Sony leaving out features and forcing you to hack your console to get them, where if Sony just include them in the first place there'd be less reason to hack your console and therefore less Piracy. Common sense? I think so, but of course this is Sony we dealing with and the phrase Common Sense is in Sony's dictionary of Swear words.

Sony didn't take the feature away. The feature is there. It's the developers of the game that decide not to include it.

And the article clearly states that the hack lags on some games. Hinting towards the fact that the PS3 cannot handle this feature for all games or software it runs.

this is as good as a proof of concept. any game made to run in this mode would be a F.Y. to any developer that refuses to patch the game claiming it is impossible.

like why make the feature and not put it in the ofw like i don't think sony wants to make money. Like if they u this feature then a lot of people would buy this from the jump. But then who would want to buy vita games. like i can use my cell as a wi-fi hub. So if i have this feature and a wi-fi hub why would i buy games for the vita... maybe that's why they want to take it out...... just a thought...... what do you guys think?
