Linux on the PS4 running Pokemon

4.5
At the Chaos Communication Congress failoverflow showed us a Linux running on the PS4 with a special version of pokemon running on it. They didn’t talk about it like the 3DS hacking just a few slides and a video of it in action.

Now it’s hard to say what firmware they are using to do this with but if I had to guess I would say 1.76Fw as we know it has the WebKit exploit in it but they use the PS4 user guide as their entry point. Thanks to biteyourconsole they recorded this for everyone to see, you can check out the short video below.

This is impressive, i don't even like consoles, i just think its impressive that they got a custom linux running over FreeBSD while keeping it active and present in the system, ill have to say, major kudos to the modders, its an impressive feat.

lolohnoeszsz People need to stop trying to hack current gen systems. Eventually you'll get that one asshat who leaks everything and suddenly we are dealing with mods and all that or shit nobody liked on last gen.

TTG wasn't created for mods. The site holds use for all things I stopped giving two shits about mods back in 2011. I only come here for grouping up with players for certain games or to see what's new.

If you come here looking for mods you are scum plain and simple.

I suppose this is cool, Pokemon was a part of my childhood.

thePiManx equivalent to showing us the King Kong exploit now, but still using the OLD Xbox 360 Blade Dashboard on the unit.

if its not on the current firmware, then this means nothing.


It does show something actually :L

It shows that this is actually possible, and that there is reason to believe that there are more exploits in later firmwares that haven't been announced yet.
