The Windows 8 Release Preview may be the operating system that's getting all of the attention right now but there's another that deserves it's share of fame. The newest multiMAN is expected to incorporate a new file manager called mmOS. No official release date has been posted but a changelog of the upcoming build has appeared. You know what that means.

Oh yeah, this is the news that you've been waiting for. No, True Blue hasn't released new patches yet nor have they lowered the price on the dongle. However, it's something worth reading about... if you haven't already.

True Blue's been up and going lately these days. If your OCD keeps you worried about getting the latest updates, there's a new update available.

Users of DeanK's multiMAN backup manager know that development has been rather quiet. There's something new brewing for the backup manager homebrew.

Here's something to add your developer toolbox. Alongside PS3Tools, is another fail0verflow tool being updated. Here's SCETool as presented by naehrwert.

True Blue has another dongle firmware update for users to digest. The team is able to change just one number and make one big difference. See what they've done this time.

After months and months, the Lonely Coder Andreas Oman, has released a new stable version to his popular Showtime MediaCenter application for PS3.

It's been a while since we last heard of neur0n. If you have a PSP running his 6.39 custom firmware, here's a new update that should be of your fancy.

Putting stuff together for the PS3 by yourself or with others? Well, you'll need PS3Tools. Not good at command line? Then, you'll need PSDev's PS3Tools.

You don't have to go that far in PSP history to stumble across Hellcat's Recovery Flasher. Hellcat is bringing his app from the dead for a much needed update.

The genius that is Coldbird has pushed a new update to his online mulitplayer client for PRO custom firmwares.

Wololo, the dev you all know and love for VHBL, has taken some time out from his schedule to address the issues that some users are experiencing with the homebrew loader.

PS3 owners who are looking to get game backups and homebrew going on the latest firmware, you'll have to hang in there a little bit longer... Maybe.

Confused on which firmware you should have your dongle running, after the barrage of updates from the True Blue team? Have no fear, there's one simple answer to that and it's 2.61.

It's time for a YAPTX article. That's Yet Another Product From Team Xecuter and it's rightfully so, as the team has the Xecuter J-R Programmer on the way to join the X360USB PRO v2.

It's hard to believe that the PS3 nearing 6 years of age. It's been a long road on both the gaming and scene fronts. If you want to go down that special lane again and see how the PS3 came to be today or want to learn some new stuff, take a look at The Complete History Of The PS3.

The True Blue team released their 2.6 firmware for their dongles. It included a firmware spoofer and provided compatibility updates for games. The thing though, it wasn't quite ready for consumption. They have fixed it up and released a new update for everyone, unless you're using a JB-King dongle.

Out enjoying 6.60 ME via the TimeMachine setup on your PSP? neur0n is here with a new update with a few more goodies.

Looking for a way to customize your PS3, after you flash custom firmware to it? Get one of the more advanced, yet basic things changed on your console. Replace that boring logo that you see every time you turn on your PS3 with a flag.

With a bit of delay, Wololo finally releases VHBL for the exploit hiding away in Super Collapse 3. Hopefully you purchased and transferred your copy of the game over to your Vita.

While you're waiting for Wololo to release the newest iteration of the Vita Half Byte Loader, maybe you'll want to stockpile on compatible homebrew apps for your Vita.

Is this scene dead yet? One developer thinks not. neur0n brings Dark_Alex's Time Machine out from the storage closet for some traveling.

One of the perks of having a custom firmware, is the ability to customize your PSP as you see fit. ZeroVSH Patcher is one of the many tools available, that can help get this done.

Sony's most recent firmware update was not a mandatory one. However, I think that it's going to turn into one, pretty soon. That's if you enjoy homebrew on your Vita, like I wish I could.

When we last covered Venix Downgrader, it quickly became an unfavored tool due to it being potentially unsafe. Developer OverX has addressed this and has released a new, proper version of his tool.

Are you playing a game and you're stuck on the same level or mission? Well, if you have a PS3 with custom firmware, you can punch in a couple of buttons and get on your way. (But isn't that how it's done normally?) Anyways, BahumatLord has released an update to his Custom Cheat Package Disc.

Another day, another firmware that gets pushed by Sony. After a previous release, Sony is offering another one feature update for the masses holding onto a Vita handheld.

Coldbird and the team behind the PRO custom firmwares for the PSP have been cranking out some updates. They aren't for the custom firmware though. It's for the online adhoc client that the team has been working on.

It's been a heated month between dongle teams True Blue and JB-King. Tensions arose after True Blue made their anti clone protections public, in an effort to warn users and manufacturers of clone dongles. JB-King has taken care of that for its share of users by releasing firmware v2.51 for their dongles. Users can now continue to enjoy their games and homebrew such as The Catachthonic.

The lonely coder Andreas Oman, is coding away his Showtime Mediacenter homebrew app for the PS3, while his automatic build system is taking care of the compiling. For those who like to stay bleeding edge, there is a new build available for download. It's a new build to go along with your plugins.

XMB File Manager is no longer known by such a name. Devil303 is no longer working alone on this project. Welcome the new Team XMBM+ and XMB Manager Plus.

neur0n is keeping the scene alive with his series of custom firmware releases. He recently released two updates to the 6.60 flavor of his "Light" and "Regular" custom firmware for the original PSP lineup.

The PS3 scene has a plethora of tools available to get your console running custom firmware or dongles, if that is your thing. Unfortunately, there's always a bad bunch of people who just aim to release tools with the intent of bricking consoles. HwapX and Overx fall into this category with the recent release of their Venix GUI downgrader app.
