    PS2 Is Popstarter Still Under Any Sort of Active Development?

    Just curious in seeing if Popstarter is still under any active development? Has the source ever been released? I know there was that drama when unfinished builds were getting leaked, but I didn't know if that killed the project or not.

    PS3 How to read data from PlayStation 3 HDD on PC (tutorials/tools hub + FAQ)

    First of all, you can’t expect that your computer will read the contents of a hard drive from your PS3 when you connect it. This is because: The HDD is encrypted with a unique key (for each individual console!). The partition table is non-standard, so it is neither MBR nor GPT (let’s...
