I'm thinking about going to Yongsan to see about getting a modded PS3 or Xbox 360. Has anyone gotten one of them at Yongsan? What did you pay? Is it even possible to mod a PS3 these days?


Cheers for any pricing, availability info.

It's definitely possible. Not all can be modded though. If you are lucky, you can find a new in the box PS3 120GB available. It will have firmware of 3.55 or below (about 80%) of them. If you find a new in the box fat PS3, then it is definitely able to be modded.

When you go, just ask them if the software is 3.55 or below. If they don't know because it's a new one in the box, stay away from the 160GB or the 320GB models. Look for a fat 40/80GB model or a slim 120/250GB model.

Remember, just make sure you own the game before you back it up to your hard drive.

You can't get one online. Believe it or not, they do draw the line somewhere here.
