+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted September 22, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted September 22, 2010 According to PSGroove.com (linked above) and DJLO at PSX-Scene.com, F1 2010 is the first PS3 Game to require updating to PlayStation 3 Firmware version 3.42 which blocks both PSJailBreak and the PS3 Proxy Methods. I was on IRC and the news broke, apparently it requires you to update and if you cancel, it takes you back to the PS3 XMB. The war has just began and Sony made the first move: User 0 vs Sony 1. For those curious about other PS3 game compatibility with PSJailBreak, PSGroove and PSFreedom be sure to check out the PS3 JailBreak Game Compatibility List and add to it if possible. To quote: "If you ignore the game's warnings, it throws you back to the XMB. Technically this should just require some editing to the PARAM.SFO's version, in order to get the game to boot on 3.41. However, time will tell." Stay tuned for more PS3 Hacks news. Also be sure to drop by the PS3 Hacks Forum for updates!

Argi Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I don't see the point. If you have a legit disc in a jailbroken console where do you lose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted September 22, 2010 Author Subscriber² Share Posted September 22, 2010 I don't see the point. If you have a legit disc in a jailbroken console where do you lose? No online. This is developers trying to stop people pirating the games, if you've bought a legit disc well they don't really care if your PS3 is gimped for online, you've bought their game. 3.42 can't be jailbroken either, so in the case of this game you have to update to 3.42 to play it looks like.

AbandonedTrolley Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I'm assuming that the 3.42 update is included on the disc then? If not then this is a very bad move on Sonys behalf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbandonedTrolley Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Duh Well there is no mention in the original article of this, so I guess you are assuming the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phemo Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Of course it's on the disc. Games always come with firmware updates on the disc if they're required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbandonedTrolley Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Of course it's on the disc. Games always come with firmware updates on the disc if they're required. Always? This is the first I've heard of any PS3 game coming with the firmware included. I know PSP did it, but now aware of previous PS3 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerBro Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Always? This is the first I've heard of any PS3 game coming with the firmware included. I know PSP did it, but now aware of previous PS3 games. previous games did that as well. When games include new features bought on by new firmwares (eg multiple psn logins, 3D support), the game disc will then have the required firmware for the user to install before running the game.

Corris Veteran Posted September 22, 2010 Veteran Share Posted September 22, 2010 previous games did that as well. When games include new features bought on by new firmwares (eg multiple psn logins, 3D support), the game disc will then have the required firmware for the user to install before running the game. I would also assume this would affects some games that come out after certain patches that would release more availible ram from the OS system, which would then be taken advantage of in future games. No doubt GT5 will come with 3.50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0nyX Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 No doubt GT5 will come with 3.50. hope not.From what i am reading 3.50 has many bugs and creates problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo2008jedi Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Of course the disc comes with the update, not everyone has their PS3 connected to the net..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biohead Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Sorry but this is complete ********. Know how I know it is? I'm running it on 3.41. End of. If proof is needed then I'd be happy to film a video of it for those who doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigitalE Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Bogus. F1 2010 works fine on 3.41, it's just not working right with PSJailbreak/PSGroove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
