Portal 2 came out encrypted with 3.60 keys



Dear readers,
I'd like to inform you that WE ARE ALL SCREWED !
First of all, i'm a huge portal fan, I finished up the first game (was part of the orange box) in about five hours of non-stop playing ..
and yea, i mean NON-STOP!
No bathroom!
No food!
No water!
Nothing !
Yea! I mean i loved the god damn game, It was so simple and yet so awesome!
Why we're screwed ?
because Portal two just came out, and it came out encrypted with 3.60 keys that non of us have (yet!)
so yea.. if you're on CFW 3.55 you're totally screwed !
if you baught the game.. you must upgrade from CFW 3.55 to Original FW 3.60 because the game is practically unknown to cfw 3.55 and if you upgraded to 3.60 there's no known way to turn back !
And if you downloaded the game (and that's illegal and sony is gonna kick your noob ass) you still can't run it on your 3.55 CFW playstation 3 because the eboot is still decrypted with the 3.60 keys
so, what can u do ? is wait and pray that some hero is gonna find the keys and decrypt the god damn thing.. i can't believe that im gonna have portal 2 in my hands and not be able to play it !
let's just wait and see what happens.. if the eboot patch came up i'm gonna post it here on my blog (en shaa Allah) for people who baught the game and can't get it to run.. not for pirates of course :)

Gaming in Egypt :)

Yea .. for those who think that egypt is all about alligators, pyramids and dry desert, WE DO PLAY GAMES IN EGYPT :)
We have laptops and PS3's and we buy games (probably used cause we're kinda poor) and yea sure, we have people who use pirated games like the rest of the world..
I used to have a killer PC and used it for gaming.. till it got old and i had my new Dell that wasn't really good at running games, so i got myself a nice PSP fat and used it for quite a while, and finally i got my PS3 fat 80 gigs.. and that was it for my Dell, I only run games on my PS3 cause gaming at any other device is now meaningless i buy my games.. usually used..
I don't use PSN (cause i won't upgrade to OFW 3.60)
I don't use pirated games
I was running OFW 2.45 for the otherOS support for linux but now i'm on 3.55 OFW and i was thinking about using the Kmeaw 3.55 CFW for a while now .
So yea.. in egypt we have laptops,psp's,ps3's and xbox's too and we're Gaming like there's no tomorrow, on desks and everything, we don't live in tents you know :)
LONG LIVE EGYPT

Kmeaw upcoming CFW!! Dual-freakin'-boot

For those who doesn't know Kmeaw, he's the hacker who recently launched his recent Kmeaw 3.55 custom firmware for PS3 so yea , no more spending money on jailbreak flashes and stuff like that.. just plug in the CFW and own your PS3
Anyways, the guy recently announced that his upcoming CFW is going to have a dual boot, that means you can boot your PS3 on linux or GameOS.
So welcome back linux, we really missed you :) Here's what Kmeaw recently said,
"I was thinking of a CFW that has bootOS integrated so it gets executed when you power on your PS3 (and switches back to GameOS on user’s request via menu or ssh). It’s not hard to make it. But recently I read graf’s announcment that he is going to accomplish the same task. So I don’t know, if such CFW from me would get any demand. Also I got bootos-installer and lv2patcher patches from an anonymous hacker who have added 3.15/3.41 support. I’m going to merge them into my code and release the next version. If you have any ideas about what would you like to have, please tell me."

Geohot is getting sued by Sony

Yea, the guy is getting sued by Sony! what a lucky dude ! i wish i was sued by them, it'd be awesome :)
For those of you who doesn't know george hotz,well, he's the guy that jailbreaked iphone for the first time (he was 17), And he's the reason why we all now can use homebrew on our ps3 using a custom firmware
The guy is a legend, and he can pretty much hack anything comes in his way! if you got some deep pockets, support the guy.. he's fighting for all the ps3 users all over the world who paid for a piece of hardware and can't use half of the capability of it.
I dont' support piracy and he doesn't too, but i believe that if i baught a piece of hardware, i should be able to use it however i want.
