PS5 emulation ramps up in response to Sony killing physical games — PS5 titles now booting across different emulators with rapid community development for both 2D and 3D games

Not gonna lie..didn’t expect this but it is oh so very welcome and, huh, even heartwarming

Reminds me a little of the PS3 days when people claimed it to be “unhackable”, especially after the 360 had drive hacks for years and the PS3 had basically nothing.

Then Sony decided to remove Linux support from the PS3 and all of a sudden, the PS3 got a lot of attention from very clever people and it was discovered that not only was it hackable, it had incredibly shit security and the exploits started dropping on a near weekly basis.

The best exploit being the famous “public private keys” talk that showed Sony has completely fucked their encryption, meaning they leaked their own private keys, allowing anyone to install CFW like it was an official FW.

The lesson here is don’t give the clever people a reason to do the thing you don’t want them to do or by golly they’ll do it.
