^You can download the games, and transfer than to PS3's HDD. You don't need the original BRD.

(as previous posts say that eboot.bin file can not be generated by the tool)
Yep its true but for the old scene releases which weren't created with the Backup Manager.

sorry to interrupt here but i needed some info
do we need an original game to actually install it
or can we download any game and put it in our HDD
(as previous posts say that eboot.bin file can not be generated by the tool)
then how can we actually download games and use them
or is this limited to the Original BRD?
You can either dump the game from original game disc, or download a game-dump online (Torrents/Usenet/Filesharing sites), then transfer it to an external hdd.

You need one (any random) original ps3 game inside the ps3 to be able to play the other copies games from the Hdd.
you need a modchip/psgroove board or other compatible psgroove device to enable the ps3 to play backup games.
you need to run the Backup Manager application (google it) to launch games from the ps3 hdd.

that error is only for the old ISO's that were created and uploaded a long time ago, you need game folder created by the backup manager and one original disc can be any game.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
