PSX-SCENE Forum Discussion for Sony PlayStation/PsOne/PS2/PS3/PSP/PS VITA
  • New True Blue Patches by PARADOX Released

    Thanks to fantazar for the initial heads up, we've been able to locate the newest games patched by Team PARADOX for the True Blue Dongle firmware version 2.5. Here is a quick run down for the people that are interested. These games are coming in fast and there will probably be more within the next few days. Personally, I'm hoping for patches for the updated LA Noire and Mortal Kombat games.


    • Blades Of Time
    • Kidou Senshi Gundam UC
    • Fifa Street
    • Birds Of Steel
    • Final Fantasy XIII-2 (BLES01269 - Works on EUR/USA)
    • Top Gun Hard Lock
    • Saint Seiya Sanctuary Battle
    • Silent Hill Downpour
    • Street Fighter X Tekken
    • Tales Of Graces F (USA VERSION)
    • Snipers Invisible Silent Deadly **Online only except for training mode**
    • **UPDATE** - Final Fantasy XIII-2 (JPN BLJM60382)


    Please keep all comments related to the patches and any compatibility problems that may arise so the compatibility thread can be updated. If anybody wishes to debate the merits or lack thereof of True Blue or Team PARADOX, please direct your comments here: http://psx-scene.com/forums/f265/tru...thread-101745/

    There are some people who don't like this idea, and that's fine, It's a trial run so that people that wish to discuss it have a place to do it, and the people that don't want to see it anymore don't have to. These discussions tend to get out of hand

    Please respect your fellow members.

      i know that works for 3.55 and lower games cause i have done it before.
      Just for copying FW is irrelevant AFAIK, either 3.55 or 3.41 will works.

      On another note.
      It costs 60 bucks for a TB dongle.
      A 2nd hand 360 can be had for a little over that.
      All those games you mentioned can be played on the 360 including online play but you can not play online with TB.
      If I had to chose between a 2nd hand 360 and a TB dongle I'd be going for the 360 any day of the week. I do feel the PS3 is better & I prefer the controller but Tekken vs Street Fighter, Dark Souls, Soul Calibur V etc are designed to be played online. I can understand why people are looking to purchase a solution to play the latest games, but I do not understand why anyone would choose TB over a 2nd hand 360 when you could have online play, 360 exclusives and games on release day without waiting for eboots.
      1st I'm not a big fan of online, don't care about it, never will.

      I'm more of a fan of friends actually getting together to play, physically together. Ever since my NES/SNES times that I love playing against a friend or family member that's right there next to me. I've played a few times online with friends, the feeling doesn't even come close.

      And finally, I'd never trade any of my two fat PS3 (60Gb with BC) for a Xbox360. PS3 exclusives rule (MGS4, Uncharted series, God of War 3, Heavy Rain to name a few), and with access to the fantastic catalog of PS1 and PS2 games!

      Just buy a 360 xenon, get VGA cable, profit.... You will be surprised as to how cheap the older version of xbox360's are. There is a high chance of RROD, but there are cheap remedies on preventing that (uniclamp example).

      I've always used PS3SAVEUNLOCKER to assign the new save to my console. Haven't had any issues with it. You'll need a save from your console and the new save that you want to use. Fill in the prompts and overwrite the PARAM in the new save, then transfer to your console. Always make a backup of your original save file just in case it doesn't work

      send me a link to the save file you're trying to use and I'll give it a shot. You can't post links so put it like this www(dot)so-and-so(dot)com and I'll figure it out

      @nadheeh - I see what you're talking about. So you're just trying to get some trophies? I'm not a trophy hunter so it wouldn't screw me up to try a couple of the saves. Any specific one you want to get to work?

      all you gotta do is edit the PARAM.SFO of the new save file to match the account ID of your console. If PS3SAVEUNLOCKER isn't working for you try aldostool's PARAM.SFO editor. It has an option in there for the account ID's of save files. You just need to put your account ID in the new save file's PARAM.SFO

      EDIT: Aldostools PS3 Tools

      remember to backup your original save

      It runs off of Visual Basic 5 dll files. Install this http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...s/msvbvm50.exe and it should work for you
