Video of new PS3 games running without firmware updates

News about the Sony PlayStation 3 and the games for the console will make anyone say “wow.” A select few, however, will blow you away. This is video created by Team PS3-Hacks belongs to the latter category.

Yup, Team PS3-Hacks has apparently achieved a breakthrough in the PS3 exploit scene as it showed us that the team can make new titles run on the high-end console even if you haven’t updated to the latest firmware. Confirmations on the validity of this accomplishment haven’t gotten around just yet but we’ll tell you more as soon as we dig up more facts.

If this proves to be real, one has to wonder where it all leads. Do we see an emergence of other hacks in the pipeline? Could this be a prelude to PS3 homebrew? We don’t know but it’s definitely a trail worth following.
