hey guys im new to afterdawn and one of the main reasons i joined afterdawn was because i wanted to get up to date in the modding community, aside from that i have a question that never really gets answered,and its regarding the ps3.i was wondering what does a hacker have to do in order to be able to back up his ps3 games,assuming he has a blueray burner and blueray blanks. i mean is it some sort of security sector in the game that doesnt allow the bluray drive to read the game or is there a security chip in the ps3 that cant be hacked?
Also do you think sometime in the near future the ps3 will be hacked.
Thank you

There main reason of the PS3 not being "hacked", is due to the hypervisor.
http://wiki.ps2dev.org/ps3:hypervisor

The games have important keys and sectors, which are not backed when backing a game up, so this makes the game useless, if you have a fat PS3, you can back up your game using SAK, but as i said before, that wont back up the keys.
