How about a tunnel service for Jailbroken PS3's?

**eigokyoukan** · 09-13-2010,12:31 PM

Hello all. I have been following these developments in the PSjailbreaking community for a couple weeks now, and have to say I am very excited to see were this is going.

I searched around, and didn't see anybody discussing this. I am a noob when it comes to the PS3 dev scene, so I do not know how technically feasible this is with the level of access provided by this exploit.

I was thinking though, would a tunneling service work with the Jailbroken PS3 like with XBConnect?

For those not familiar with the concept, basically you tunnel your Console's traffic through your PC, the tunneling software (if programmed for it ^_^) will allow you to connect your Console to others and play MP games.

Please feel free to say in detail how hard/unfeasible it would be. You wont hurt my feelings. Just shooting this out there, because this could be a great next step in just saying SCREW PSN all together, and seeing the Open PStore released confirmed to me that this concept MAY be possible.

I have limited PS (any PS product) dev experience, but I would be more than willing to lend a hand to anybody trying to figure this out.

I wonder if we could use something like this http://www.leafnetworks.net/index.jsp?pid=24. Not sure though.

So you want to create an underground PSN

Great idea! I dont know if its feasible but I love it.

BRILLIANT!

I don't think this has ever been done before for any console other than regular PC's

Something similar has been done before and still exists http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XLink_Kai

I'm sure something like Hamachi will come out on PS3 soon

woa, never heard about that before

I had heard of Xlink, but not Hamachi. This idea looks promising, just seems we need at least a client on the PS3 itself.

I do not know much about the Dev side for homebrew on PS3... but I can start learning. I'm going to do some research on the PC side of things. Maybe we can have our own PSN hosted on dedicated linux boxes in the future.... just wondering a-type here.

Remember when the Xbox SDK was released for the original Xbox? That would be GREAT in this case now.

I see this though (cant post link yet, but google search Python on PS3 and visit the first link). It seems made for game development, but I might be able to hand my Python guru friend some of this info to see if anything can be whipped up now that PS3s can be unlocked.

I downloaded Xlink Kai earlier as i used it for my xbox when it was banned Nov 2009 to continue to play L4D2, Upon looking at it today it looks like it can handle some games on the ps3 COD:MW2 COD:MW Read dead,

Seems like it would be ok but limited to the games playable, Check it out

My Tag on there is Beshkie
The only game i have that would work at present is Red Dead
