BBC report suggest that the PS3 has been ‘hacked’ by notorious iPhone Cracker, George Hotz.

George Hotz claims that the hack has taken 5 weeks to create which he says allows users to pirated games or home-made software on the PS3. He plans to refine the technique but hopes to soon release the hack online.

The PS3 stands as the only console to not be hacked until now, which has lasted a few years. Hotz has admited that its “very secure system” but nothing is “unhackable”.

Some people may suggest that this will now allow users to install new OS which will allow for backward compatibility for PS2 games.

I can now do whatever I want with the system. It’s like I’ve got an awesome new power – I’m just not sure how to wield it.

LOL?!?!?
