PlayStation Vita

Just moments ago during our 2011 E3 press conference we proudly unveiled an incredible 2011 software lineup and amazing new PS3 peripherals, and also shed new light on our highly anticipated handheld gaming device, officially named PlayStation Vita (PS Vita). “Vita,” which means “Life” in Latin, was chosen as the name for our next-generation portable entertainment system because it enables a revolutionary combination of rich gaming and social connectivity within a real world context.
By blurring the lines between interactive entertainment and reality, our goal was to design a device that offered a revolutionary combination of rich gaming capabilities and social connectivity, bringing users closer to each other and closer to their gaming experiences wherever they are. Connectivity was a key objective and our goal was to create experiences and content that would challenge the traditional notions of gaming. It was vital to make a device that was an extension of a user’s entertainment world, no matter where one would go.
Successively launching in the global market for $249 starting the end of this year, PS Vita incorporates a beautiful 5-inch multi-touch organic light emitting diode (OLED) as the front display and a unique multi-touch pad on the rear. Two analog sticks enable a wider range of game genres. Together with the front touch screen and the rear touch pad, PS Vita offers new gameplay, enabling entirely new experiences.

We know you’ve been closely following all of the news since we announced the product in January. With mobile connectivity playing a huge role in PS Vita’s interactive experience, we know many of you have been wondering what carrier will be helping us bring you closer to other users and closer to your gaming experiences on the go. Today, we proudly announced a partnership with AT&T, which powers the nation’s fastest mobile broadband network, who will serve as the exclusive service provider for PS Vita in the United States. By having both Wi-Fi and 3G/Wi-Fi models available, PS Vita will enable infinite possibilities for you to “encounter,” “connect,” “discover,” “share” and “play” with your friends wherever they are.

The excitement doesn’t stop there. We believe that 2011 will be a defining year as we usher in a new era of portable gaming. With the official North American unveiling of PlayStation Vita also comes the introduction of an extensive line-up of software for the platform. PS Vita’s launch lineup is a force to be reckoned with, featuring exciting and attractive new titles from SCE Worldwide Studios, including UNCHARTED: Golden Abyss, LittleBigPlanet, and Ruin (working title), which utilize PS Vita’s groundbreaking technology to make unprecedented immersive, interactive and social game play available on-the-go. In addition, titles such as Little Deviants, Hot Shots Golf, Reality Fighter, Hustle Kings, ModNation Racers, Wipeout, Super Stardust Delta and a broad range of third-party game developers and publishers make use of PS Vita’s unique feature set. We can let all of you know that the biggest and best 1st and 3rd party gaming franchises will be coming to PS Vita.

Further enhancing your entertainment experience are new PS Vita features, such as “LiveArea,” an interactive space for each PS Vita software title that allows you to access the latest game information through PlayStation Network; “near,” a pre-installed application that lets you see what other PS Vita users in the vicinity are playing; “Party,” which lets you voice chat or text chat while playing games or using the Internet browser; and “Welcome Park,” a tutorial application designed specifically to guide you through PS Vita’s new user interface.

2011 is sure to be an epic year for us here at PlayStation. We’re always looking for ways to create compelling experiences for all of you and we’re very excited to bring you unparalleled gaming experiences with PS Vita. Let us know your thoughts and looking forward to having you try out PS Vita for yourselves!

Nintendo Wii U

Game changer?
It was easily the most newsworthy and creative offering at E3 yet, surpassing the news from yesterday's Microsoft and Sony briefings. And even though there were few specifics about the console for the public, Nintendo partners lined up to rave about it for the company's presentation.
The chief executive of Electronic Arts, John Riccitiello, joined Nintendo executives on stage--the first time he's done that at E3, he noted.

"What brings us together today is a breakthrough in our relationship based on a stunning new breakthrough in game play," Riccitiello said.
He envisions gamers using the Wii U to call plays in football on the small controller while playing the game itself on the larger TV screen. And he expects to use the online features to let EA gamers connect to online content and extend their play to social networks.
In April, Nintendo announced plans for the new console. The company put out a three-paragraph statement, offering few details.
Money matters
Much is riding on Nintendo's new hardware. The game company has suffered financially of late, posting a 29 percent drop in revenue to $12.3 billion in its fiscal year that ended March 31. Earnings slid 66 percent to $946.7 million.

Those problems start with the lagging performance of the Wii. Even though it's the reigning console champ, having sold 86.7 million units worldwide compared to 54 million Xbox 360s and 50.6 million PlayStation 3s, according to independent analyst VGChartz.com, the Wii's sales have been in decline.
In the last fiscal year, the once ground-breaking console sold slightly more than 15 million units, down from 20 million sold a year earlier. By comparison, Microsoft's Xbox 360 sales continues to grow year-over-year. Sales of Nintendo's DS handheld slid to 17 million units, down from 27 million.
And Nintendo doesn't expect improvement this current fiscal year. The company has said it expects to sell 13 million Wii units and 11 million DS units worldwide in the period.
Even its newest hardware, the 3DS, a handheld that offers 3D images without the need for special glasses, has underperformed. Nintendo missed its target of selling 4 million 3DS units in the last fiscal year, selling just 3.6 million devices.
Last week, Nintendo announced plans to update the software running the 3DS on June 6. The upgrade includes a new Web browser and Nintendo's eShop content-downloading service.
At the briefing, Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime showed a handful of new titles for the 3DS including Nintendo mainstay Mario Kart.
"It's a game you've enjoyed for years, but it's a tricked-out version you haven't seen before," said Fils-Aime.
Nintendo will also offer Luigi's Mansion and Kid Icarus games on the 3DS as well.

INSTALL GUIDE FOR PS JAILBREAK

REQUIREMENTS:
• 3.41 firmware must be installed on the console *Please Note: If you want to increase the size of your internal hard drive make sure to do it before upgrading to 3.41
• Backup Manager and copy it to any external USB storage device formatted with FAT32.
OPERATION:
1. The console MUST be fully OFF (NOT in STANDBY mode) before connecting the USB PS Jailbreak. Depending on the console version you MUST:
PlayStation 3 *.- FAT. Just turn off the console from the rear switch.
PlayStation 3 *.- SLIM. It is essential to disconnect the power cord from the back of the console.
Connect PS Jailbreak to any USB port on the console, taking care not to have anything else connected by USB.
2. Press the POWER button on the console and then pressed the EJECT button. You will see the two LEDs on the PS Jailbreak illuminate while powering ON the console (10 seconds), then one of several things can happen:
- The Green LED is lit. This means that the PS Jailbreak is working properly.
- The Red LED is lit. This means that the PS has not loaded correctly Jailbreak. Usually this happens when not properly pressed Power sequence and then Eject.
- If the end result is the bright Red LED, we repeat the process from the beginning with the precaution of disconnecting the power cord from the back of the PlayStation 3 Slim or cut the current from the switch at the back of the PlayStation 3 Fat.
3. Once PS Jailbreak the device is loaded correctly, connect the USB external storage device with the Backup Manager to the console.
4. Go to the GAME menu and then to the option “Install Package Files”, select Backup Manager.
5. Once install is completed at the end of the Games menu “Backup Application Manager” will appear. Select it and run.
6. Once implemented, navigate to the console the game we want to backup. If we make a backup on the external USB device(Max. 4Gb game), press the button O. You can select the destination of backup, and you can select from the USB external storage device or even the internal Hard Drive of the console.
7. To load previously created backup game simply insert any PS3 game disc (you can use the same game) and from the Backup Manager menu select the desired backup and press the X button. You can also delete backup by pressing Triangle.
The reason to have a game inserted in the drive of the console is simply to emulate the loading process.
8. After selecting the backup you want press the X button, automatically returning to the main menu of the console and finally loading the game, just scroll up once to see the desired game loaded. Then select and start, we can play our backup!
* Official PS JailBreak Easy Start-Up Instructions:
1. Backup Manager and copy onto any standard FAT32 formatted USB flash drive
2. Power off your console (For Fat model you can flick power switch in the back. For slim you must unplug power cable and re-plug out of back of console).
3. Insert PS Jailbreak into your consoles USB port (you should have nothing else plugged in)
4. Press power button on console, release power button and then immediately press the eject button (You will then see two lights while the console loads. If the light turns green then that means PS Jailbreak is working,if it turns red then that means you did not press power/eject in a quick enough sequence. If you see red light please un-plug your console from the wall and begin step 4 over again).
5. Insert USB key with backup manager downloaded on it.
6. On main system menu go to “Game”, then “Install Package Files”, and click to install Backup Manager.
7. Scroll down game menu and you will see Backup Manager application, please click on it
8. Insert your licensed game that you would like to backup into the drive, if you wish to backup to an external hard drive please insert it now. Click O button to backup game. You will be asked if you would like to backup to external hard drive (by clicking no it will ask you to backup to internal hard drive).
9. To load a backup game please insert any game into the drive (You can have any real PS3 game in the drive, but you must leave 1 game in the drive to access your 100′s of backups. This ensures reliability in the game loading process). Now choose the game you would like to load with Backup Manager highlighted. Scroll up 1 and you will see the chosen game that you have loaded from Backup Manager.

Hack PlayStation 3

Open Source PS JailBreak Clone “PSGroove” Available Now!

Updates at the bottom…

Maybe, it’s a possibility, perhaps, conceivably it could happen next week, but that’s just speculation; in other words, nothing is set in stone. Mathieulh and the crew are working on it and the plan: bring the PS JailBreak code to github so others can contribute. And with that code compiled one could even flash it to a Teensy++ USB Development Board ($24) or an AT90USBKEY ($31). Yessir — a do-it-yourself PS3 hack without breaking the bank — that’s what I’m talking about.

If you’re thinking about the Teensy++ board you may want to act fast. From their website:

Update, Tuesday, Aug 31, 5:41 PM: We have received a higher than usual volume of orders for this item, and we’re working to ship orders as quickly as possible. Current wait time is approximately 2 days. As of Tuesday 5:41PM these boards ARE IN STOCK. We have enough inventory to fill all pending orders! If we do run out due to high demand, we expect to have more available in approximately 2 weeks, and we will fill any backorders in the order they were received. If you want one of these boards, your best bet is to place an order now. Please understand PJRC is a small company and we are currently running about 2 days to fill orders, though we’re hoping to fully catch up soon!

I hope everyone understands too: PS JailBreak isn’t just about backups, in fact, that’s not even its actual purpose. “PS JailBreak” means unsigned code on the PS3, and that means emulators and other real cool shit. We’ll keep you updated — Twitter too.

Update: I just ordered 10 of these Teensy++ boards. One for me and the rest we’re going to give away in an upcoming contest. Check back for that.

Update: Cloned and open-sourced before distributors get their overpriced versions out. That’s right, all the code that makes PS JailBreak what it is, is now up for grabs. Take a look right here. What next? Get yourself a Teensy++ board and get your PS Groove on. Documentation, guides, how-tos, etc. will follow.

From the PS Groove README:

This is the PSGroove, an open-source reimplementation of the psjailbreak exploit for AT90USB and related microcontrollers.

It should work on:

* AT90USB162
* AT90USB646
* AT90USB647
* AT90USB1286
* AT90USB1287
* ATMEGA32U4
* …and maybe more.

This software is not intended to enable piracy, and such features have been disabled. This software is intended to allow the execution of unsigned third-party apps and games on the PS3.

Read the full README.

And if you’re not already, get following Mathieulh and RichDevX. Two devs behind PSGroove.

Update: I’ve compiled PS Groove for you — grab it right here. This is the version without Backup Manager support, and it goes untested. When our boards arrive and we’re able to test, we’ll write up a user-friendly tutorial for you.

Update: Someone just emailed in a modified “descriptor.h” that apparently enables Backup Manager support. I’ve compiled that for you too. Again, it goes untested.

Update: I’ve added PS JailBreak’s Backup Manager to our PS3 downloads — it’s the app that allows you to create & load PS3 backups. Install using PS JailBreak or the version of PS Groove that supports it.

Update: If you haven’t already noticed, PJRC is sold out of Teensy++ boards. What did you expect? But! If you have a [hacked] PSP then you’re laughing because Mathieulh has confirmed that this code can, and likely will, be ported to the PSP. Hacking your PS3 with your hacked PSP — who would’ve thought.

Update: No PSP? Didn’t get to order a Teensy++ board early enough? Don’t stress it — because like I said above we ordered 10 and that means we have 9 to giveaway. Want one? Shits real simple… Follow us on Twitter and retweet (RT) this tweet. First 9 to do that and email admin at dashhacks with a dot com confirming your twitter name get ‘em. P.S. Like Dashhacks on Facebook too.

Update: And they’re gone… All 9 Teensy++ boards are claimed. Thanks for playing. If you don’t get a response it means you were too late

KOMPONEN PADA KOMPUTER

1. VGA CARD

VGA card merupakan bagian komputer, di dalam CPU yang berperan penting untuk menampilkan output process ke monitor. Tanpa VGA card, layar komputer tidak akan menampilkan apa-apa alias blank. VGA card sendiri ada yang berupa slot tambahan ataupun bawaan produsen motherboard atau disebut juga VGA on board.
Seperti apa bentuk VGA card tersebut? Silakan amati gambar dibawah ini.

Bagian-bagiannya antara lain terdiri dari memory dan kipas sebagai pendingin. Fungsinya sama, yaitu menampilkan teks dan gambar ke monitor, hanya warna dan desain yang berbeda, tergantung pihak manufaktur. Kipas dibutuhkan untuk mendinginkan komponen VGA card yang panas, karena bagian ini bekerja cukup berat setiap saat.
VGA card yang terlihat diatas merupakan VGA tambahan, bukan on board (tidak menyatu dengan motherboard). Keuntungan VGA card non on board adalah kita dapat dengan mudah menggantinya dengan yang baru apabila terjadi kerusakan atau ingin meningkatkan performa grafis komputer kita.

2. CASING

Casing merupakan bagian komputer yang berfungsi sebagai pakaian atau pelindung dari CPU. Bentuk yang umum adalah kotak persegi, namun bisa dengan modifikasi bagi mereka yang senang mengotak-atik casing ini.
Selain sebagai pelindung CPU, casing juga bisa berfungsi sebagai pendingin tambahan. Karena biasanya, casing modern saat ini dilengkapi dengan kipas pendingin yang jumlah nya bisa lebih dari satu buah.
Fungsi lainnya yang utama adalah sebagai pondasi untuk menempatkan berbagai bagian komputer lainnya, terutama CPU, seperti motherboard, vga card, soundcard dan lain-lain.
Sebagai pelindung, casing bermanfaat melindungi bagian dalamnya dari kotoran atau debu, dari benturan dengan benda lain, sehingga bagian-bagian yang vital akan aman dan tidak cepat rusak.
Selain fungsi primernya tersebut, casing juga dapat tampil dengan berbagai macam warna dan bentuk yang sesuai dengan keinginan kita. Tentu saja casing hasil modifikasi ini harganya lebih mahal.
Yang terpenting dalam pemilihan casing adalah fungsi utamanya. Sehingga komputer kita berada dalam keadaan yang aman dan terlindungi.

3. POWER SUPPLY

Masih bagian dalam komputer, yang tersimpan dalam CPU yaitu power supply. Sesuai dengan namanya power supply ini berfungsi mengalirkan listrik ke setiap bagian komputer agar dapat berjalan. Yang biasa dipakai di PC rumahan adalah jenis ATX. Untuk lebih jelasnya lihat gambar di bawah ini.

Bagian belakang terdiri dari socket penghubung ke monitor dan power listrik. Juga terdapat fan atau kipas angin, yang berfungsi mendinginkan udara di dalam kotak power supply tersebut. Bagian depan terdiri dari kabel-kabel kecil untuk mengalirkan listrik ke setiap bagian di dalam CPU atau motherboard.

Tentu saja listrik yang mengalir sudah minim atau diperkecil. Sedangkan di power supply itu sendiri voltase listrik masih besar, sehingga dilarang keras menyentuhnya.

4. PROCESSOR

Tulisan ini lanjutan dari sebelumnya yang membahas isi dari CPU. Kemarin sudah membahas mengenai motherboard, kali ini kita akan membahas processor. Apa sih processor itu? Bagaimana bentuknya? Fungsinya buat apa?

Dibawah ini akan coba dijelaskan apa itu processor. Processor merupakan bagian yang sangat penting dari komputer. Ia bisa diibaratkan sebagai otaknya komputer. Yaitu suatu sirkuit elektronik yang berfungsi secara logik merespon dan mengolah segala intruksi yang menghidupkan komputer.

Bagaimana sih bentuknya? Coba lihat gambarnya berikut ini.

Itu adalah gambar processor yang terbaru, baik dari Intel maupun AMD.

5. MOTHERBOARD

Tulisan ini bagi yang ingin mengenal isi CPU, diantaranya motherboard atau mainboard. Merupakan bagian induk atau utama yang berada dalam CPU. Berfungsi sebagai papan circuit dari berbagai macam komponen pendukung lainnya.

Seperti apa sih bentuk motherboard tersebut? Di bawah ini adalah contoh gambar motherboard “Gigabyte GA-MA69GM-S2H”.

Anda lihat bagian yang berwarna-warni itu?
Itu merupakan tempat dudukan untuk memasang card-card yang diperlukan, seperti VGA card, memory card, TV Tuner, Video card, dan lain-lain.

6. KEYBOARD, MOUSE DAN MONITOR

Nah, ini bagian inputnya yang terdiri dari keyboard dan mouse. Tahun 1990-an input device hanya berupa keyboard saja. Perkembangan selanjutnya mulai muncul mouse, pen (berbentuk pulpen). Saat ini sudah ada yang input device berupa sentuhan jari (touch screen) dan suara (kalima perintah). Yang umumnya dipakai untuk komputer rumahan adalah keyboard dan mouse. Fungsinya tentu saja untuk memasukan data.

Yang terakhir yaitu monitor, output sementara, karena hanya tampak buat sementara saja di layar. Fungsinya untuk melihat hasil input ataupun program yang sedang aktif.
