PSX-SCENE Forum Discussion for Sony PlayStation/PsOne/PS2/PS3/PSP/PS VITA
  • True Blue Releasing More Eboots Soon!

    The True Blue team have announced that they are back from the holidays, and are back to work on turning out new EBOOTs to those who own the dongle. They are saying their next release will include some exciting titles, but we will have to wait and see...


    Just a quick update to let everyone know that yes, we are still alive and we apologise for the slowed pace of releases over the holiday period and any inconvenience this may have caused our valued customers. Our entire team is now back to work after the holiday break, working hard to prepare the next round of EBOOT releases which will include some highly anticipated titles. Stay tuned for further updates.
    I am interested to know what peoples' thoughts are on this device, and "their" EBOOT releases.

      IMO TrueBlue crew seems nice enough, considering.... you know... the fact that they're illegally making money of pirated software, and at the same time screwing the entire JB community by keeping their code hidden.
      But besides that, yeah.... I'm sure they're great.

      Seriously though, the basic nature of their business pretty much makes sure they will not be around for long, hence their support is questionable at best, making the whole investment pointless.
      They're fighting a loosing battle; between other hackers who want to make the hack public domain, and Sony who can and will crush them if/when they start seeing trueblue as an actual threat to their bottom line. All this, of course, assuming the trueblue crew are in it for the long haul in the first place. Which, based of past experience with similar "companies", is doubtful.

      I own a trueblue and hate the why they control what will be released and when. Even if I own the PS3 disc legally.. $ony all over again.

      They sell the PS3 games on sites for +10$ witch is not much but I don't really wont to support the piracy.

      Soon there will come at tutorial on how to burn games for TrueBlue .. you still have to own the d(i)ngle and custom eboot / disc files etc tho..

      I love stupid comments like this....like really...nobody is forcing you to buy trueblue or the pirated games or whatever. If you keep your system up to date and buy games at the store like normal, why would there be any problems.

      You can play backups from your hdd along as you utilize google correctly for those "custom eboot / disc files" and how to ftp those files to your backups.

      people will always bitch and complain they need to get it through their head that there will NEVER be another cfw a year has passed I made my rant in August of last year and to this date everything I had said was true enjoy the games you have or buy another console or buy the true blue.

      Devs got bored of the ps3 scene even that Kakaroto guy havent been heard from in a while now with his "jailbreak" look on the bright side the vita will be exploited even further in the future

      My feelings? True Blue is just a warez group but instead of doing it for fun they do it for profit. I feel it likely that TB and Cobra are the same people which is the only valid excuse I can think of for them not implementing each other's features. Seriously, do you believe that they're talented enough to figure out the things they did but not the things that the other did? And I can assure you that there is no "professional courtesy" involved in the mod-manufacturing community. Just look at the PS2 modchip fiasco if you have any doubts about what I say.

      And not everyone gets paid millions for what amounts to stealing someone else's work. Do they put in some effort? Sure but it looks like most of the effort they put into it is used to ensure they maintain control. It's like saying a warez group should be compensated for their releases because they spent the time making a crack. I didn't mind the Jailbreak guys making some money off their dongle. They got the whole thing rolling and hardware was required for a jailbreak at the time so why shouldn't they be the ones to make the profit? We no longer need a dongle so there's no justification for what they do. Whatever effort it takes them to produce the eboots is WAY less than the profit they're making from this racket.

      zzz still its all about supply and demand maybe if the devs got some "reasonable donations" maybe there will be a cfw but anyone is still dreaming of a cfw they need to wake up and smell the coffee... once Geohot didnt win that lawsuit that meant that Sony could do the hell they want with the ps3... anyways let true blue make there money in peace

      It is a racket............the only effort involved is piracy in the fact that the eboots are developer account files............look at the iphone ios5.0.1 4s jailbreak......the respectable devs over there wouldnt release the jailbreak for the iphone 4s and ipad2. why? coz the exploit used was based on a dev sdk! props to em....

      i said nearly same thing in cMM 4.00 thread that best would b if there ll b 1 dongle with both Cobra/TB feature cause no way i am gonna buy 2 another dongles which can become useless like old JB if new CFW comes out

      another solution is OFW/CFW dualboot with E3Flasher/ProgSkeet but 2nd HDD is needed without PSP/PS2/ISO

      I support True Blue and anything that advances the Ps3 CFW scene, dongles made the scene it is today. Dongles like the ps3jailbreak,ps3key, Cobra, and the latest and greatest True Blue. I have taken all of this in as a learning experience and I am glad for it and everyone who made it possible =).
      Can not wait for the new eboot fixes hopefully this weekend.

      I'm not complaining about a lack of new CFW. The lack of respect and appreciation from the scene kiddies is astounding so I can't blame other developers for abandoning the PS3. My point is that what TB is doing is unjustifiable, in my opinion. Anyway, that's all I really wanted to say about TB. /rant

      Personally, I see a reason to keep their code a secret.

      Yes, it hurts the scene, but at the same time, I'm guessing they don't want to be sued. It could've been someone else who wrote the code. But it's a team who figured, "Let's make money off of this", thinking they could, and guess what? They got my money. Their plan worked. Yes, it's expensive, but the hardware and the time put into the dongle is well worth the price, I'd say.

      That, or TB is $ony themselves. I've heard rumors. I purchased it from ModChipCentral. I don't know why, but they do not support the device. (They sell it, but no description, just a notice) I'm guessing they are being careful of $ony, or there's something else going on.

      I don't know, but I do know that my PS3 plays 3.60+ games that don't have a demo to use for a patch. That's all I'm happy about.

      Thanks TB team for your work. I feel bad that a lot of PS3 scenes out there have to deal with the begging for more patches on your behalf, though.
