Thread: Blu-ray Java Homebrew and stuff

So, as we all know the PS3 haven't been really hacked (we can only make it crash, lol), but the Java via Blu-ray disc works just fine for some basic homebrew, right? ( I mean the pong and stuff).
Have they patched it? How much is it capable of doing- i mean is there access to RSX and stuff, or is it blocked like in Linux/OtherOS?
We could get some quite nice stuff (afaik there's internet connection avaible there) to work just fine- like some reaaaaaaly basic emulators (commodore, and stuff) (I know that java sucks kinda hard when it comes to the speed, but hey- at least we can get it working, eh).

Have anyone actually bothered to check how far can BD-J go? It might be quite usefull.

It appears that recording to any homebrew BD-R BD-Java, this can be run from any console from any firmware. To make it work implements have to record the BDMV and CERTIFICATE folders in the root of the disk. PS3 to get it into the menu of [Video] we will bear in our BD and homebrew. From here it follows that only banned the BD-Java and the USB reader devices Letor BD but no ban.

What do you think? Surprised? I think from this you can make the PS3 Scene reborn a bit to take it away because it took off all his scene. With this the Sony console is able to load emulators, and homebrew games Aplisa.

BR-J: Firmware 2.60 has blocked this easy route into simple XMB-based games. Previously you could trick the PS3 into thinking a USB pen drive was a Blu-ray drive, and get it to run some simple, safe Java games directly, but this is no longer the case.
