It was only last week when we reported about a USB Modchip called the PS Jailbreak for the PlayStation 3 which enable users to create backups of original games on the internal or any external drive connected to the PS3. One of the biggest complain has been the high price tag ($169), considering that it could go to waste if Sony cripples it in the next firmware update. And so as a result, Chinese clones of PS Jailbreak USB Modchip have started to pop up already which costs relatively less (around $20 to $30) than the original thing.
According to the original creators of PS Jailbreak, different “Chinese Knockoffs” are floating around and we should stay away from them. If you buy the original PS Jailbreak USB Modchip, you will get complete warranty and support from the original author of PS Jailbreak, while the rip-off version will not cater to anything.
Beware of imitators and Chinese knock-offs, PS Jailbreak is the original solution, Buy original for warranty and support
These cheap alternate clones may flood the market in the coming days and weeks. Now if the code of original PS Jailbreak USB goes public, then there’s a high possibility that anyone will be able to make their own custom USB Modchips for free, which I believe is how it should have been right from start.
