Am I right in saying:

- back ups not yet possible
- many newer games will never be playable with this exploit as it won’t allow for 5.x games
- very hard to find an exploitable pro

?

@cyclonefr you say this because you buy your games so its different, and why would it be late to discover the console now? there arent so many exclusive games on it yet and i think there are still like 3-4 years until a new console +at least another year after that so there is plenty of life on it.

not that many exclusives out there above 4.05, i think the big one is horizon zero dawn with dlc and that uncharted expansion dlc, plenty of games below 4.05 including some ps3 remasters

the exploit just got released so everything is being ported from 1,76 to this one including method for playing backups.

the only exploitable pro is the one on launch day, but not worth it because you need game updates to unlock fps etc so you need a newer exploited firmware or youre stuck with the normal console performance

maybe after a cfw they can find a method to play newer require firmware games just like the ps3

I think it depends if you had a Xbox/PC the last years and played games like TW3 and other multiplatform games. If you did (and most likely most of us did), then there's not much reason to buy a PS4 only for couple of exclusives IMO.
I got a hacked 360 in 2009 and PS3 in 2010 didn't played any 360/PS3 games before so it was a fantastic 7 years of playing all multi and exclusives games of that gen without having to pay for games/DLC.

there is no sense in playing multiplatform games on ps4 if you already have a good pc...but as for the exclusives...yeah...with all this 4k bullshit and newer console they seem to forgot to make new games, when ps3 launched the slim version there were already many exclusives.

still i would still buy the console only for them few exclusives games, the question was if now or wait some more

also you can resell the ps4 after youre done at a higher price than a used one with the original fw.

Reading through the comments on that article it appears that 5.xx firmware has already been exploited but remains unreleased for now. I'm on 5.0 so will stay on this firmware and watch with interest.

I know but as you just said “it’s not released”...

So yeah until then I’ll keep updating to enjoy the latest games. Sorry for my impatience.

keeping the exploit private means shit, the scene has gone to shit, there is only a few now with only 1 dude working on the current exploit. gone are the days with guys like geohot who hacked the ps3, jailbroke the ios and almost made elon musks self driving car software, now all you get are instagram fame attention seeking whores.

the times have also changed, with sony et al. cracking down on hackers and offering bounties for exploits, while trolls run rampant. on the other hand, it shows that all this shouldn't be simply taken for granted.

It was not. Sony sells PS2 games for PS4 on the PS Store, every game comes with the emulator. Sony already stated that this emulator allows trophies, and 1080p rendered graphics.

So tell me genius, How PS2's games can now run on PS4? Rolling Eyes

The guy who posted this guide outright saying its emulation and even the files are presented as "ps2emu"...

I doubt they ported PCSX2 to PS4... Do u have any idea how complex PS2 system is? still not 100% emulated till today... it's not something that taking days...

EDIT: some sort of PS2 emulator on the PS4 DEFINITELY exist:

EDIT2:

From what I understand, the PS2 emulator on the PS4 is the same, or at least very very similar at it's core, to the one on PS3. This means enhancements likely won't exist without modifications, and compatibility will be pretty meh. I imagine some games might work better on the PS4 than PS3, but I wouldn't expect perfect compatibility for every game.

ps4 uses software emulation for ps2 games, similar to the stuff sony used after they cut the extra chip for ps2 emulation from the ps3

thats how all old rereleased ps2 games run (purchasable via psn, ofc sony doenst allow us to use the original discs we may own), just container in an emulator

still havent touched my ps4 or lets say havent updated to 4.05

Yea,I guess I was misunderstood by Cyclone..

I didn't mean the old PS3 models.. I was talking about the models from slim and above which had software emulation for older gen games...

That's how Sony could easily sell "classic" (non-HD) PS2 titles, but I guess a lot of games still didn't worked well, so rightfully the classic library was fairly limited on PSN...

actually people reporting it works better than the ps3 software implementation (which caused problems with a few games which now work fine)

I didn't misunderstand you. You told us that "there was a hidden PS2 emulator on PS4".

And I answered to you that "it was not hidden, it's very well known that PS4 emulates PS2 games sold on PSN. And this emulator is NOT in the PS4 firmware itself, it's encapsulated in every PS2 games for PS4 they sell".

So yes, replacing the official ISOs with custom ones was to be expected since we knew that they were emulated.

So NO, nothing was hidden from Sony

U know, there is a reason I putted the apostrophes in the 'hidden' word...

Obviously, it's not truely "hidden", same for PS3, If u ask Sony I bet they will strightfully admit PS3 has PS2 emulation...

The term was mostly to descripe situation when there is Emulator, but u need to hack the console for using it propely, instead of the very limited option that u must buy very limited selected PS2 titles and can't use your already purchased old PS2 disks...
