There is a lot of miss-information in this thread. The PS3 Jailbreak scene is far from dead and its expected that all new firmware update mandatory games get bypassed pretty quickly. I'm not even going to touch on the CFW topic.
All i can say is that people need to read and search more before posting these kind of threads...
I'm not sure if it's really mis-information. I think Sony has been far more aggressive in dealing with this, than most other companies have been. You can bet that future games will not be so easily by-passed as MOH has recently. There will probably be a 3.6 SDK that comes out which contains a total compatibility break with 3.41. The 3.5 SDK was merely a speed bump put in before they can roll out something more substantial. I'm not sure why you think it will be 'expected' firmware updates will get bypassed. It's fairly trivial for Sony to pump out firmware updates that block any exploits, and to ensure games are compiled with specific SDKs that address them. This ability means that hackers will inevitably be at a disadvantage.
I'm not sure why you refer to CFW. We certainly aren't anywhere near the PSP's ability to run CFW. Most have been hacks to existing XML files. Conceptually it's there, but the technical details of the firmware haven't been teased apart yet to really get CFW working on a usable level. I'm not saying we won't get there, but it certainly seems like it will be a significant amount of time before we do.
