Sony is encouraging PlayStation owners to trade in their PS5 consoles for up to $400, with notifications being sent to players offering cash in exchange for their old hardware.
I just about would, if not for the fact that I don’t even want to give Sony the benefit. My Black Friday PS5 Disc purchase was the biggest financial mistake of my adult life.
6 years later and still no games. PS6 teasers and still not a single game on PS5. It’s unprecedented. At least I got to replay Dishonored without having to dig out my PS4 lol backwards compatibility was the only selling point for me. Now that I’ve got a Shield in the living room, it’s done nothing but collect dust as an ugly eyesore.
The actual jailbreaking part isn’t what I’m having difficulty with. It’s pretty straightforward. It’s what to do after it’s jail broken. Like where tf do I get games from?
Depending on your specific disc drive being able to read CDs or not it is now possible to run any PlayStation software from any generation off of the disc. If you have the disc drive that doesn’t read CDs that only discounts PS1 and some PS2 releases but an external CD drive can solve that.
Not to mention all the other emulators for pretty much every system that are all currently in a good place or being actively developed the PS5 is now the ultimate device in terms of backwards compatibility.

The jailbreak scene is looking pretty hot right now though, depending if you’re on the right firmware and haven’t updated recently.
Yea. Unplugged mine since it is still on 13.6 and am figuring out how to go about it. Don’t know where or how to get games and stuff though.
Modded Warfare on YouTube has a lot of info about it.
I was in your situation, but I upgraded to 14.2 since it was preventing me from playing the updated version of a game I really enjoy.
I hope I won’t regret it, but having a Playstation 5 and not using it seemed like a waste.
Eh, just watch some PS5 jailbreak videos, you’ll get it figured out. Someone else may have more direct info. 👍

The PS5 has more controllers than games.
