    hey since u jailbroke ur ps3 can u still play online or is it not workng anymore?

    im running on 3.72 and wanna know if i start using games from an external hard drive will i be able to play them online

  • @slayerdude10 Hey, man. The answer is no. Also, just because you have games on an external hard drive does not mean that you can play them. Your PS3 must be jailbroken. The only way to jailbreak a ps3 that is 3.72 right now is the e3 flasher which costs $80 and the PS3 is really only worth it because of how great online play is anyways. I know this news kind of sucks, but I'm pretty sure that's how it is right now.

  • Just curious what model/size HDD you use. For my Wii I use a seagate and was able to find a list of compatible HDD no problem, but couldn't find such a list for PS3, am I safe to assume most HDD will work?

  • @IronSheik00 I use a 250 GB Seagate. I think it is only dangerous if it is over a tb.

see all

  • @Jamamegapr , hey mate , can u please tell me how can i jailbreak my ps3 3.55 firmware to 4.10, i want to play wwe 12 and many new games but my firmware are not allowing me , please tell me

  • Firstly would i be banned frm psn and secondly would it show on psn i am playing mw3 if i have any disk inside?

  • Is there any way of playing the game directly of the USB without jailbreak??

  • @Jamamegapr for 4.10? how u do it? i got 4.10 plz tell me!

  • I installed the new jailbreaker for 4.10 and it says i can still play online. I dont know if you know, but, will it work with multiman?

  • holy fuckin peice of shit your such a dumbshit fat bitch

  • hey i backed up games to my external HDD , and i backed up games but when i load it , it wont change gamae it still says borderlands inside when i backed up mw2, or cod4, or blackops

  • and the point of this is....?

  • @hexjoyce you can still copy a larger file than 4 gb on FAt32 as long as it doesnt come as 1 whole file..ex. i copied a game which is 6gb,but it consist of 1 folder but several files inside of it to make it 6gb..that will work..but a 6gb movie ripped into mkv file cannot be copied into a FAT32 hard drive..

  • my friend can you enlighten those of us that are so stupid as to how the fuck can you copy a PS3 game with such enormous sizes for example : Uncharted 3 has 46 GB and copy it on to a FAT 32 HDD when any FAT32 partition does not let you copy anything above 4 GB?

    See where im going with this?
