Due to their popularity, 8-bit home computers are still remembered fondly by many with the Commodore 64 being one of the most popular computers of the lot especially in America.
With VICEVita, you can play your favourite C64 titles like Boulder Dash and even those that require constant keyboard input like text adventures!
Now, the PlayStation Vita has just received an improvement in the C64 emulation department as Amnon-Dan Meir (ammeir71), who’s also behind ZXVita, has released VICEVita, a standalone Commodore 64 emulator for the console that doesn’t rely on RetroArch.

- Savestates allowing you pick up your game from wherever you want

Starting off with a kernel plugin for the PlayStation Vita, cuevavirus/Marburg of Team CBPS has released yet another plugin for the console and this time around, it’s called PSOneScrot. As its name suggests, this plugin allows you take screenshots of PlayStation 1 games properly as pressing the PS Button+Start results in the taking of messed up screenshots.
To take a screenshot of a PS1 game with this plugin installed, all you have to do is open the Official Settings Menu by holding the PS Button and select ‘Screenshot’ which takes a screenshot of what’s on-screen for you. The plugin also comes with support for Adrenaline although to use it, you have to first open Adrenaline’s Quick Menu then navigate to the Official Settings Menu from there.

From a hacking point of view, Firmware 4.86 doesn’t seem to affect much since the kernel wasn’t changed at all.
Joonie has confirmed that FW 4.86 doesn’t come with any kernel changes and released HFW 4.86.1 (Link)
This, in turn, prompted Joonie to state that an update to PS3HEN should be expected soon so that you could hack your noCFW (min FW of 3.60+) PlayStation 3 console. Furthermore, Joonie has released HFW 4.86.1 which is exactly the same as OFW 4.86 but with a modification to the web browser making it vulnerable to exploits employed to hack your console. This means that all PlayStation 3 consoles are still hackable as the current firmware is still vulnerable to current exploits!
However, if you can get by with spoofing your firmware version and staying on an older firmware, you should probably do so for now as some homebrew utilities may not function correctly as offsets might need to be updated. Updates to popular homebrew utilities and CFWs may not take long similar to what happened when Firmware 4.85 was released last August.

Ever since the dawn of the PlayStation Vita homebrew scene, a popular question has been whether the PlayStation Vita can emulate the PlayStation 2 due to its wealth of memorable titles and the answer has always been a flat no as the PSVita doesn’t have nearly enough power to emulate this beloved 6th generation console with playable performance. However, Xerpi has gone ahead to do the unthinkable and managed to port a PlayStation 2 emulator called ‘Play!‘ to the console while also publishing a video of the emulator in action.
For those who are unaware of Xerpi’s feats, he’s the developer behind udcd_uvc, a kernel plugin that allows you to stream your PSVita’s screen to a PC in real-time thus giving it Switch-like abilities as you can play games in both handheld and TV mode. Furthermore, he’s also been working on porting Linux to the console on-and-off so perhaps one day, we’ll see some lightweight distribution running on the console although things are still in early stages.
Before getting your hopes up high, it’s important to state that Xerpi’s Play! port is a proof of concept meaning that it was created to prove the emulator could run on the console. In a demonstration video posted on YouTube (below), the emulator is shown running the Teapot demo from PS2SDK not a commercial game and since it’s a proof of concept, we can conclude that if any games manage to run at all, they will probably be a slow slideshow at best.
It’s important to state the Play! emulator which is much more capable than the PSVita so even if Xerpi does indeed work his magic, commercial PlayStation 2 games will never be playable on the Vita although you could probably mess around with simpler PS2 homebrew if that’s your thing.
As of right now, there’s no VPK for a compiled build of Play! for the PSVita but you can run it on your console by compiling it as per instructions on GitLab. For those still thinking this is an April Fool’s joke, Xerpi personally confirmed its veracity but he made it clear that it’s just a proof of concept more than anything else!

Russian PS4 owners will not be able to download Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Remastered.
GameSpot reports that Sony declined to sell the game, which is currently a digital-only release, through the PlayStation Store in the region.
Neither Activision nor Sony appear to have specified the reason, but it's a safe bet it's due to the inclusion of Modern Warfare 2's infamous 'No Russian' mission, which puts players at the centre of a mass shooting at a Moscow airport.
The level caused controversy when the game was first released in 2009, resulting in Modern Warfare 2 being pulled from shelves.
Activision later removed this section from the Russian release, but it has been reinstated for the remaster.

Don't you just love seeing firmware update notifications for your legacy hardware? Sony sure hopes so, because they've pushed out a new firmware release for the PlayStation 3. What exactly does this new update bring to the table? Well, not much at all, outwardly. Sony offers the usual message of "This system software update improves the quality of the system performance". It's not stability, but it's close enough. Even in terms of exploits and homebrew, version 4.86 doesn't have much of an impact: according to PS3 scene developers, the kernel is unchanged. As always, it's wise to stay on your previous firmware until more information is available.
An update to the PlayStation 3 system software was released on 31/03/20. In order to download PS3 system software version 4.86, you will need a minimum 200MB of free space on either the PS3 Hard Disk Drive (System Update) or on removable storage media (PC Update).

According its developer, the scene veteran and PS3Xploit team member bguerville, PlayStation 3 Toolset (or PS3 Toolset) is “a new PS3 exploitation work” which evolved from development surrounding a new version of PS3Xploit’s tools.
 PlayStation 3 Toolset is a framework by bgeurville for building powerful PS3 tools!
These tools, which are currently at version 2.0.2 with some HAN v3 tools also available, include:
- The NAND and NOR Flashers used to hack CFW-compatible consoles (minimum firmware of 3.56 or less)
- Others including an IDPS dumper and a NAND/NOR dumper
Shifting focus back to PS3 Toolset, bguerville is leveraging a brand new exploit to make stuff work in the toolset which contains various useful tools to both non-developers and developers which are described in the section below. However, before discussing the tools present in PS3 Toolset – we’ll look a bit at its backstory which can be summed up as follows: When PS3Xploit team member habib continued researching into PS3HEN (a hacking solution for noCFW PS3s) with help from esc0rtd3w, bguerville decided to instead focus on his own research and tool/exploit creation which led to him eventually branching off his PS3Xploit tools’ into PS3 Toolset which provides a framework for creating flexible and powerful tools.

In an unusual move, Square Enix has decided to ship Final Fantasy VII Remake earlier than planned in select regions.
A statement released via Twitter attributes the decision to the disruption caused by COVID-19, which producer Yoshinori Kitase and director Tetsuya Nomura say has "made it very difficult to align timing of our global shipping."
The game is due to launch on April 10, and the company had previously warned that delivery may be delayed due to logistical problems caused by the virus.
But in an effort to avoid that, Square Enix has decided to "ship the game far earlier than usual to Europe and Australia."

The global pandemic is creating uncertainty for a host of businesses, but Sony today said that it hasn't changed too much for PlayStation just yet.
As reported by Bloomberg, a Sony spokesperson said the company doesn't expect the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) to have any notable impact on the PlayStation 5 launch later this year.
Beyond that, Sony also released a statement today saying it believes COVID-19 will have no material impact on its gaming business for current fiscal year, which ends this coming Tuesday, March 31.
While it hasn't seen any issues with software delays to date, the company said it is keeping an eye on production schedules for first-party and partner studios, "primarily in the Europe and the US."
However, a number of Sony's other businesses have already felt the pinch, with cancelled concerts and theater shutdowns affecting its music and movie businesses, respectively.
Sony's electronics products segment has also been hurt by retail closures, supply chain instability, and factory shutdowns.

GameStop today reassured investors that the ongoing novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic does not yet seem to be threatening the year-end launches of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.
In a post-earnings conference call with investors, GameStop CEO George Sherman said there was no indication yet that the pandemic would have an impact on the planned fourth-quarter launches of the two consoles, either in when they go on sale or when GameStop takes delivery on them from the console makers.

Nintendo has requested that Sony remove user creations from Dreams that are based on its IP, including its most famous character Mario.
The news emerged from a Dreams player, who goes by the handle 'Piece of Craft' on Twitter, who shared a screenshot showing their model of Mario has been removed from the game.
The image shows a notice that the creation was moderated and removed from the game because it contains copyrighted material.
It's not yet clear whether this is an ongoing, Dreams-wide purge or if this specific user was targeted. GamesIndustry.biz has found there are still Mario-themed Dreams creations available in-game at the time of writing.
