Jailbreak PS3 free on 3.55 firmware

Right from GeoHot’s mouth, the genius behind all jailbreaking programs and tools, the monster has been tamed. The PlayStation 3 can be finally jailbroken. Actually, a guide has been even released by the master, in which he teaches you how to jailbreak the PS3 on 3.55 firmware. All is free, and you don’t have to use any other hardware equipment like a phone, a PS3 dongle or others. Also, you can use an older firmware as we are going to update it in the guide.
Don’t get too excited, as this is not as good as it sound like. The fail0verflow team warns us as by using this guide you cannot play any pirated / torrent games. All you can do is to install custom packages, with the provided installer, made by the Jailbreaking community. In the following weeks these should grow as mushrooms after rain so, don’t worry and be patient.
