BD-J homebrew blocked in PS3 FW 2.50 |
Ó
We've gotten reports that the new PS3 firmware released yesterday - firmware 2.50, to be exact - has been confirmed to block all BD-J homebrew made for the console.
Definitely bad news for those who usually run BD-J homebrew on their PS3s, but it's not really so surprising as Sony was bound to do something like this sooner or later. Hopefully more progress will be made in the future to keep homebrew alive on the new firmware.
We'll bring you more updates on the state of homebrew on the PS3 as soon as they come, so keep checking back here on the QJ.NET PS3 blog.

Never used the BD-J stuff, but bummer nonetheless.
Lol, lets see what FreeGhey says about this. The so called "feature" has been blocked! lol.
It's because of these atitudes, that they deserve to see their consoles hacked.
You can still run java in Linux. And much more more. Stick with Linux.
You're an openly gay person making gay jokes? What the f*ck is wrong with you?
big deal... nothing useful ever actually came out of this bd-j thing, and if you want to run java programs, do as techni says and use linux. that's why sony put that in there, so people wouldt have to mess with the original OS
you made Freeghey change his subject line! you *****ing rock. that guy is a whiny douche.
I agree with you. That is good that Sony gave us the ability already for homebrew via linux. Using linux gives you more flexibility anyway.
What flexibility? With all that hardware access blocked, it is as fun as running linux on an intel 286.
1. it's ISOHaven that always uses the same subject line, not me
2. you're clearly just Justin logged in from another account
What will the millions of people who downloaded all the BD-J homebrew now play ? They can just throw away their PS3 and their HDTVs ...
the nes emulator was the only reason i got my ps3 now im gutted can anyone make a downgrader
If you want to run emu's....then BOOT UP LINUX.....have all the emu's you want....
Shatterdome, I'm pretty sure they were being sarcastic, you just ruined it man
That exploit was garbage! It wasn't going anywhere and was limited to the point that all of the "homebrew" released under it combined totaled nothing more than crap.
Atleast now we'll have a QJ.net page that isn't spammed by "random tetris clone 80" and people can really go forward and find a real way to use the power of the system for homebrew.
homebrews on the ps3 was just one more step towards the psp. besides you dont need *****ty devs to get *****ty games on your ps3 now that it supports flash 9. just go on newgrounds and play some crappy games (need to plug a mouse and keyboard into your ps3.)
seriously thats weak. get a better diss.
I disagree. Aside from sound, there was no limits. Java can produce some really kewl stuff. It needed time. All homebrew starts out that way.
What's weak is using the, "dup account" nonsense excuse.
"you're clearly just Justin logged in from another account"
@slack04 - You just plan fail!
lol, yas are all ghey, y don't yas go out once and a while and get a bird and bitcch to ur own m8s, instead of arguing about crap on the internet with strangers. its hilarious though.
Good, cause this shouldn't be news anyways
***** me
i actually agree with ISOHAVEN
although ISOHAVEN you have it terribly wrong
bluetooth blocked
full controls blocked
usb blocked
hdd access blocked
theres a good bit more (some might be possible but i doubt it ie usb),
however its not so limiting that you cant make a decent game, however the controls is by the most pain in the ass thing and is probably why no stunning games have came out
apart from that it was all good, also the fact you could only launch one was ***** a JAR launcher needed to be created
I was gonna ask about this on yeterdays story on the 2.50 release. But seeing as so many people feel that BD-java was lame, I migjht have gotten flamed.
Well, there's always Linux :)
I said ghey, not gay. Ghey means stupid.
Lin sux.
You are such a moron.
bluetooth - NOT NEEDED
full controls - What controls? WTF are you talking about?
USB - NOT NEEDED
HDD access - NOT NEEDED
The HDD is the memory stick you dolt.
You have to keep your opinions within SCOPE of the actual product. BD JAVA.
Get a clue will you?

Does not.
And there's always the hammer-and-nail-then-drop-from-twelve-story-building option...
