REVIEW: 3K3y ODDE for the PS3

**brakk3n** · 02-22-2013,11:57 PM

I'm proud to present my first review in over five years of The 3K3y's Team Optical Disc Drive Emulator (ODDE) hardware modification for the PS3. Using this device you can use games from a USB HDD under OFW and online with PSN. So you can always stay current with no risk of being banned. Find out more in the comprehensive review I've attached to this potential news item.

Guys,did someone read about CobraODDE---if to believe to them--it can work on any ps3--even on super-slim ps3--!!!!!

If someone could make review of CobraODDE and also depict the process of installation to ps3 superslim...

Interesting does installation to superslim involve any additional hardware or software ?????

It should be noted, that NO PSN BAN as they claim has not been 100% user verified. Buyers beware.

You're welcome. I enjoyed writing it as it had been a while since I last wrote a review. To address what @tthousand said about PSN compatibility; the device has yet to been reported to be the cause of any PSN/SEN bans and I personally run my 3K3y OFW PS3 for some many hours each day to see if it's been banned or not. Since I wrote the review I have no been banned; that may change and if it does I will post as soon as the console is banned.

Well ... I said I'd report back if/when the console was banned, but the "phat" died on me. Guess that ends that.

That is too bad. I hope you can get it up and running again.

The 3K3y lasted longer then the PS3 did and was still not banned, not that this surprises me as I've taken an oath not to purchase any Sony products in my life - ever again. My NES and Sega CD (to name a few) have lasted many of "year" when the normal lifespan of a PS3 is 2-3 years.

It's sort of sad how people have grown accustomed to purchasing crap and then being perfectly fine when it stops working. The last 15 years of all of these technology companies pushing garbage into the marketplace has given way to this line of blind acceptance. Even though back in the day the NES and Sega CD contained cutting edge technology they weren't prone to break down and this was because they weren't cheaply produced in modern day slave labor camps overseas. Most of today's tech is junk. Period.

I have no intentions on fixing it and not because I can't because I already threw the piece of crap in the dumpster; maybe some homeless person can sell it. I'm done with that console. Wasting my time trying to fix something that was already faulty off the assembly line to begin with is pointless.

I also have no real motivation to do so because of the general attitude and reaction these freeloading scum who call themselves "ps3 sceners" had/have towards innovation because of a price tag. This is also not a isolated reaction, but a widespread misconception that plagues this particular scene.

Honestly I've got better things to do.
