E3DIY Team has released a video of their future chip to the downgrade of a PS3 FW 3.70 to a 3.55 FW. The developers suggest that this method requires no welding on the PS3 Slim (unlike PHAT), it works on the NAND and NOR, and that is done in one click and in less than 5mns for the entire operation. The video does not show the flash to E3 secrecy around the unit.

This one is probably going to be painful to watch for all of you who had this happen to them “for real” and don’t have access to this “probably-not-legal-in-most-countries” Ta88v3 downgrader. Developer Yoti shows us a video of him installing 5.50 Gen D3 on a ta88v3 (a guaranteed brick, since apparently the installer doesn’t check the motherboard type), and then unbrick it with a Pandora and a magic memory stick.
Of course, if you’re the owner of a Ta88v3, you probably already know that the Magic Memory Stick + Pandora battery combination don’t work on your motherboard, the kit in this video is a different one, allegedly based on some leaked content from Sony’s official unbricking tools (and therefore, you won’t easily find download links).

via http://wololo.net/wagic/2011/09/04/c...ur-9g-to-6-20/
Ok, I’m seriously late on this one, especially since I’m the first one who actually blogged about it when it was still work in progress, besides Davee himself. Well it seems to be tough for me to handle my everyday life, as well as blogging here, and keep working on Wagic at the same time
Anyways, I won’t go into details, if you want to, check Davee’s blog entry, or my own post on the subject. The bottom line is, if you’re the owner of a PSP 3000 with motherboard 9g (if you’re not sure what motherboard you have, the tool PSP Everest will let you know), you can now downgrade your PSP to firmware 6.20 (while the previous version of the downgrader would only allow you to go down to 6.35). What’s the point you ask? Well, among other benefits, 6.20 is the firmware that will allow you to flash a permanent Custom Firmware to your PSP (something that I personally don’t recommend, but I know people like this feature)

via http://wololo.net/wagic/2011/09/01/d...-motherboards/
It is a well known limitation that recent PSPs cannot be downgraded below the firmware they shipped with. For example if you bought a PSP that initially had firmware 6.35 on it, you can’t go below that firmware (the real limitations are a bit more complex and motherboard-related but that will do for this article).You can’t for example, go down to firmware 6.20, a firmware that many people enjoy because it is (for now) the last firmware on which some PSPs can install a permanent Custom Firmware (by opposition to a Light Custom Firmware which gets “uninstalled” every time you turn the PSP off, a limitation that some users don’t really like).
So, the rule was that recent downgraders wouldn’t let you go down to firmware 6.20 if your PSP motherboard is of type “9g”… this is going to change soon, as Davee announced (here and here) he has a Beta version ready for a downgrader that allows these recent PSP models to downgrade to firmware 6.20. This is still under testing but I am assuming it is just a matter of hours before we see a release. Thanks Davee!

Activision has confirmed the suggested retail price for the Modern Warfare 3Hardened Edition: $99.99, which is $20 more than previous Hardened Editions. TheModern Warfare 3 Hardened Edition comes with a one-year membership to Call of Duty Elite, bonus in-game content, a Juggernaut XBL avatar skin, a 100-page field journal and new disc art, all in a fancy steel case.
So far, Gamestop and Amazon have the Hardened Edition listed at $99.99, while EB Games Australia is charging $158 for the same package. Modern Warfare 3's jump in price may be attributed to the one-year Elite access alone, which is valued at $50 and bumps users up to "Founder status," which includes an in-game emblem, player card, camouflage and an XP boost. Or, it may all go to pay the air-conditioning bill at the Call of Duty XP Event -- we hear it's awfully temperate in that hangar.http://www.joystiq.com/2011/09/03/call-of-duty-xp-event-modern-warfare-3-hardened-edition-priced/

LG has unveiled an alternative to Sony's recently announced PlayStation-branded 3D TV that allows two gamers sat side-by-side to view two separate images.
As reported by Stuff, the LW980T, due out in September, comes in two different models: a 47 inch screen priced at £1799 or a 55 inch screen for £2499.
As well as the local multiplayer-friendly Dual Play display that simultaneously outputs two separate images to opposite sides of the viewing angle, the set also offers various SmartTV features, including 3D video on demand and BBC iPlayer, Facebook and YouTube apps.
It packs a crisp Nano Full LED display and comes in at a slim 26.4mm thick.
The set includes seven pairs of 3D glasses out of the box, but you'll need to pay extra for the all-right and all-left Dual Play specs.
In comparison, Sony's more modest 24 inch set launches this Autumn priced at £499.

Not that Sony's PlayStation 3 hasn't been touched by Midas before, but this is the first time we've seen the new(ish) form factor doused in such official fashion. Per usual, it'll be the homeland that's treated to the NINOKUNI Magical Edition PS3 console, a decidedly wizard-approved bundle that'll include a copy of Ni No Kuni. The only edition available will boast a 160GB hard drive, a single Dual Shock controller and a glorious icon on the lower-left of the machine. It'll be available in Japan this November for ¥33,780 ($440), but only in "limited quantities." So much for magic that lasts forever, huh?

Remember that mysterious third person Call of Duty game? It now looks like it’s unlikely to ever see the light of day.
The studio that was working on it, Sledgehammer Games, has confirmed that the project has been canned. And with Sledgehammer now one of the multiple studios working on Modern Warfare 3, it seems that the game has been abandoned.
“We came on board to make a third person action adventure game, in the Call of Duty franchise,” Activision VP and GM and the founder of Sledgehammer Glen Schofield told Gamespot.
Sledgehammer’s Michael Condrey added: “We were working on it about six months. We had a prototype together that was pretty compelling. It looked really good.
“The opportunity to work on the biggest thing in the industry with Infinity Ward, which has demonstrated that they know how to do exceptional software, was just an opportunity we couldn’t miss.
“There is a lot of people on the team who have worked on Call of Duty before, who have worked on first-person shooters, so there is a lot of built-in knowledge about the FPS genre and a lot of passionate gamers.”

While Xbox 360 has comfortably outsold PS3 in the US throughout 2011, the recent price cut for Sony's console is having a marked effect, and analyst Michael Pachter reckons Microsoft will have to react if its system is to hold the No.1 position this Christmas.
He told IndustryGamers the battle between the two high-definition consoles will be a "close call" this holiday season, but predicted: "If Microsoft does nothing, I think PS3 will outsell Xbox 360.
"However, my friends at Microsoft are extremely proud, and they absolutely refuse to tolerate the possibility that the PS3 will outsell the Xbox 360. I think they have the ads printed for the Xbox 360 price cut, and will drop them on us the instant they see PS3 sales greater than 360 sales.
"In the meantime," he added, "I think we'll see a reduction in the price of the Xbox 360/Kinect bundles (similar to Wal-Mart's "goof" last weekend), and Microsoft will use that to keep the PS3 at bay until they decide whether to match price for the console only."
In Europe at least, Microsoft said last week it's confident that a range of upcoming Xbox 360 games and bundles will be enough to help the console gain the No.1 position.
Starting next week, the Xbox maker will be adding a downloadable copy of Child of Eden to its existing Kinect hardware offering in all Xbox Live territories apart from Japan.

After a huge price slash of the Playstation 3 console on 22nd August, Sony has confirmed that sales in Australia have risen over 400%.
The data is based on NPD Group findings and retailers information, and pertains to both the 160Gb and 320Gb models of the console.
Michael Ephraim, managing director of Sony Computer Entertainment Australia, said: "This new price point really represents fantastic value for money as PlayStation 3 delivers full HD games, Blu-ray capability, plus music, movies, catch-up TV and more on demand."
"Australians love not only games, but also the quality home entertainment PS3 provides. Sales are booming because PlayStation 3 is the best device to connect to your TV, at incredible value, to provide the ultimate home entertainment experience."
Sony anticipates that this momentum will build in the lead up to Christmas, citing Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, Resistance 3 and Playstation Move titles such as DanceStar Party as key drivers for the increase.
The Playstation 3 currently carries an RRP of AUD$349.95 for the 160Gb model and AUD$449.95 for the 320Gb.

Howard Stringer, president of Sony Corporation, has said that PSN is "better than ever" following its six-week outage earlier this year.
Stringer cut a bullish figure at a Berlin news conference yesterday, in which he said PSN users and purchases were up, Sony was over its bumpy start to 2011, and even argued that it was better positioned than Apple.
"I'm pleased to tell you that PSN is more secure and better than ever," he told reporters. "We are aggressively expanding its content. We have more than three million new customers since the network came back online, and sales are exceeding what we had before the cyberattacks."
Sony endured a dismal start to 2011 when the PlayStation 3 washacked and opened up to piracy. The platform holder's aggressive response - taking legal action against George "Geohot" Hotz, the hacker who published PS3's root key online - incurred the wrath of the hacking community.
While the culprits are still yet to be identified, it is widely accepted that the group of hackers whose attack on PlayStation Network resulted in a six-week outage, the loss of 100 million users' personal details, and Kaz Hirai's humble apology at a Tokyo press conference. That, Stringer believes, is ancient history.
"This year, we at Sony have been flooded, we've been flattened, we've been hacked, we've been singed," he said. "But the summer of our discontent is behind us. The past is a prologue to future possibility."
Stringer's attitude is worlds apart from his apology for the PSN outage, Sony's handling of which prompted several fund managers to call on him to step down. Indeed, so confident is Stringer in Sony's current state, and its wide reach, that he argued the firm was in a better position than Apple, saying: "Yes, yes, Apple makes an iPad, but does it make movies? Warner Bros and Fox produce fine movies, but what about their cameras and smartphones? Sony is where art meets technology."
Sony revealed its release plans for two new tablets at the IFA electronics show in Berlin yesterday, and Stringer believes the devices, which run on Google's Android operating system, can take on and beat iPad. "We want to prove it's not who makes it first that counts," he said, "but who makes it better."
The company also announced the formation of Sony Entertainment Network, which will coalesce its online services - including PlayStation Network, the Qriocity music and video services, and those provided by thirdparties - into one, all-encompassing brand

Console-maker Sony has rebranded its PlayStation download services, including PSN, as the 'Sony Entertainment Network.'
Audio download service Qriocity will also move under the new umbrella, but will be retiled to Music Unlimited. The PlayStation 3's Video On Demand channel, meanwhile, is to be renamed Video Unlimited.
PSN for both PlayStation 3 and PSP (and presumably Vita come the new handheld's launch) will retain its name but be 'realigned' as part of the new platform, which is intended to "accelerate the integration of hardware, content, and network," according to Sony's consumer products boss Kazuo Hirai.
"We're leveraging the biggest asset, the Sony brand, to establish a comprehensive, global platform called Sony Entertainment Network," stated Hirai at the IFA trade show last night (as reported byCNET).
Sony plans to open up the service to third-parties, as well as taking it to other of its consumer electronic devices. Music Unlimited is already available for most Android phones. "The whole of Sony is greater than the sum of its parts," claimed Hirai.
More details on the Sony Entertainment Network are available on its new website.
