yup..im sure it wont play backups...but remember that that thread was in regards to theviper gc chip and is not the same chip being developed by the something brothers . the brothers are almost done or are still trying to hack the infamous barcode deal thingy so that their chip will be able to play backups with ease

[Quall999]

If it doesn't play the backups without the barcodes, then I don't see how people will be able to create homebrewn code and play it. If they are executed the same way, I don't see why backups would be any different. I haven't looked much at GC at all, but if the protection is in the game itself, I am sure patches will be created.

im sure they are in final stages in figuring out how to trick the gc laser into that it has already read the barcode thats not there from the backups in order for it to start reading the game

[Quall999]

A new update about the chip says that it can load hacked or original bios. So I am guessing that future hacked bios will have a barcode bypass in them.

it just keeps getting better and better by the week..haha. so im guessing it wont be long till they have that modchip 100% up and running

[seaneyb2003]

yeah just need a clever ass programer 2 sort out the code for it

[Quall999]

Also, to the comment about the statement of transfering files through a serial cable. If homebrew code could be executed, I see no reason why some kind of client that takes advantage of the BBA, similar to xbox, wouldn't be released. Isn't that the way people backup games now? Through a bba I mean.

[TylerDurden]

Not ps2 people.

"A new release group, Mental Cube, have developed a hacked BIOS for Viper GC, called Cobra BIOS.The hacked BIOS will make it possible to play backups from Mini DVD-r, just by swapping with an original disc after the Cobra BIOS on screen prompt! Fun times ahead for all of us.... "

Cool eh.

[TylerDurden]

Now thats something I wanted to hear.
