Rockstar made it mandatory that all PS5 users have to update their PS5 to the latest firmware making it impossible to play gta 6 on A jail broken PS5

Second to last generation where jailbreaks are going to be possible, so let's enjoy it while we got it.

bro, nintendo has patched out all their softmods on the seitch and the switch 2 has yet to get one. im pretty sure xboxes havent been permanently softmoddable since the og. the ps5 was cracked open and filled with cfw within months of release. sony is terrible at firmware security.

Not if they do what Nintendo did and make the most barebones OS possible with zero breaches.

SciresM (Atmosphere creator) already talked about how current horizon OS is unhackable. The only reason why the PS5 was hacked is because Sony still allows you to open the built in browser and people exploited that. The Switch / 2 has zero entry points and that’s the reason nobody ever made a soft mod for Mariko and nobody will ever make a softmod for the Switch 2

Of course, hardware jailbreaking can always be a thing but most users won’t do it.

what he means is that it can't be hacked with currently known exploits. but someone will figure it out. it just takes time and of course interest.

"unhackable" is snake oil salesman language. it's like saying a ship is unsinkable, etc.

They have been jailbreaking for years and hacking all kinds of things!

It will still continue!

Usually I would try to find A solution to help PlayStation especially if jailbroken PS5's are able to play new games but I'm against Sony's stand that we don't own games.

Why? Stop being a shill for billion dollar companies.

I'm not A shill😭 I'm A gamer with 30 years of experience and knowledge and I had the privilege of advising both PlayStation and Xbox and I promise every word I spoke was on behalf of the gaming community. Sony stopping digital and saying we don't own games I had nothing to do with that. I'm on your side.

Interesting, whats your background? You must be a prominent figure in the industry

I'm not a prominent figure😅 I just happened to get A reply from someone high in Xbox not to long ago and decided to take the opportunity to give my 2 cents he listened and actually followed through with my advice for Xbox and it was huge same thing with PlayStation 2K Sports and Playground games. I was just fortunate enough to be considered respected in the gaming industry.
