      As supposed, this copy paste made a mess
      No, your ps3 needs a downgrade to 3.41, then the JFW 3.41DH version. The 3.56MA version is just for owners of a new slim model, bough with a 3.56 firmware (minimum firmware accepted by the system) Ah, you need to keep your original BD till the last day you want to play a game. It's needed for download plugins for a game, your original BD disk is used for check. If you don't own it, you cannot download any plugin

      Well, this just really deflated my hopes.

      From the look of it, you are definitely going to want to downgrade to 3.41 if at all possible because the 3.56 MA seems to not have a lot of features found in the 3.41 version. I wonder how long it will take to over ride the need for a blu-ray disc? I hope it doesn't take long. The coolest thing about having a modded PS3 is that I don't have to get off the couch or run down stairs to change a disk. This is disappointing news.

      . . . Well this article was a torture to read, hate Google Translate. Still, If I ubderstood correctly, you CAN play new 3.6+ games, but cannot play them unless you own the original disc?? . . .Well damnit. I already downloaded Dark Souls, now what am I gonna do? Not to sound rude to DH's effort, but I hope someone will find a way to bypass his plugin defense.

      Oh my god, demonhades is a douche, I thought he will save ps3 scene, but nooooo, he has to make everything stupid, I think we will have to pay for his plugin All this anti piracy thing is stupid, people want's cfw for game backups, not some homebref games ...

      That demonisos anti-piracy thing sounds utterly retarded... but their patches will leak eventually so who cares.

      The whole point of me having my console jailbroken, is so that I can try a game before I buy it. Because I don't want to pay £40 for a game and then find out it is utter shit. Some games are not even worth the fee to rent them. I will only buy a game if it is actually worth it.But because of his anal anti-piracy bullshit assuming everyone who downloads a game is instantly a pirate, I can not do that. It goes back to having to actually own the game.This has completely abolished the point of having my PS3 jailbroken. Infact, it completely abolished the point for 90% of the people who have their PS3 jailbroken.

      This is so pointless. If we need to keep original discs to download the plugin, why don't we just go update our PS3 to OFW instead?
