When I was in middle-school is when CD/DVD burners were cheap enough for regular consumers to afford. I can remember this one guy would buy all the newest PS1 games, make copies, and sell those copies for $10 a piece. He made a lot of money! And he would tell everyone how to get them to work. Kids would save their lunch money up for a week or so just to get bootleg copies of the new games.

Unfortunately, an argument can be made that Trophies and Achievements are an aspect of single-player games that are competitive with other players. This is especially true when you consider that several developers have had contests to see who could find the "Secret" achievements and trophies first with a cash prize going to the winner.

My first hack was in the long, long ago when cable boxes used rotary dials to change channels. My dad called the cable company to add a pay channel. They came out, opened the box, did something to the inside of the box and now we had an extra pay channel. That got me thinking. So I tried opening the box but they had those tamper resistant hex bolts. So I found the hex bit that fit them, clamped it into a vice, and drilled out the center. I was in. After examining the box for about 10 seconds I saw that some of the leads on the dial were scraped so there was no contact. I almost just scraped all the leads but thought better of it, what if, when my dad turns in the box later, they notice he has all the channels but wasn't paying for them. This was the light bulb moment, I took an index card and inserted it between the contact and the dial. I now had all the channels. I put the box back together and experimented with bending the index card end, inserting it into the box and pulling it back till I found the exact right position and bend amount to slide it in and pull it back so it slid in between the contact and the dial. It took awhile but when I finally got it working I took a knife and cut the card so it was just sticking out of the box. When my dad came home from work he was turning through the channels and saw we had all of them. He was like, "Oh damn, they screwed up and gave us all the channels!" And I was like, "Cool!" I never told him I hacked the box. I was eleven.

I used to use the inside of a pen for the ps1. Because you could bend it in and it'd hook onto the lid while pushing the motor button down. It was very effective for games that wouldn't read properly, because the light shining down through the disk made it easier for the laser to read. It also kept the system cooler for longer.

Had the PS1 spring, it wrapped around the plastic prong the lid used to push an internal button. The end had a straight piece of metal that slotted into a hole on said internal button. It wasn't any old spring but it was easier than the pen trick. That spring along with the device you'd plug into the back of the PS1 to allow modded games and game cheats along with pirated games was amazing.

@ummiq Simple; his fix showed that the problem was actually ridiculously simple to actually correct, and made it fairly obvious that they just didn't do it because they couldn't be bothered to. Them paying him for the work is something like hush money. Not so much for him keeping it quiet, but definitely because the alternative would likely have seen him throwing that info around and the company ending up looking really really bad because of it. It's all just the PR game, and 10k is chump change for them.

I also remember loaning my 360 to a buddy for a couple weeks, he gave it back to me with like 50 burned games. I took it home, hooked it up via WiFi, and my gamertag instantly got banned for hacking the console. After he was like oh dude you gotta plug it in, you can't use wifi.

#4, the crosshair one, fun fact, I have an Asus VG248 24" monitor and one of the features it has, is literally a crosshair overlay, it calls it "Aimpoint" and underneath the option to select it or rather start to select it as it has several different crosshairs to choose from, it has "(Practice Mode)". (sounds like asus is trying to cover their own ass there) For me this feature is worthless since I simply have no need for it (I barely ever play any shooters and don't give a rats ass about anything for them and could care less about watching someone play them via stream. Because of this, it took me awhile to figure out why the hell this is even a feature. After I did, I wondered how anyone could tell someone was using it and the only thing I could think of would be if someone was streaming and had a camera pointed at the screen. Anyone know any other ways? Another feature it has is a timer overlay that lets you select several countdown times and where to place the timer... this I actually find useful, normally when cooking food, lol. (personally I bought this monitor years ago because it was a cheap 24" 1ms 144mhz monitor, think it was even on sale, probably was, I hate paying full price for anything)

Up until recently I still had a piece of clear tape at the center of monitor with a dot where my crosshairs were. Pretty useful in a lot of games since I’ve been using that for almost 2 decades and I was use to it being there all the time, even when I wasn’t playing games.

When I was a kid, we somehow got our hands on a japanese game for the PS1, and a "translator disc" that would let a north american PS1 play the content. it used the same "Swap the disc mid-use" trickery that the exploit used, except the translator disc actually preloaded some information, stopped loading new info, and told the user to swap discs, then it would load the game. That game was Pepsi Man btw, one of the most memorable games outside my 6 year old obsession with crash bandicoot on the PS1

i used the PS1 trick so many times. but we did it with the spring so that when the lid is opened, the button at the back that the lid that pushes the button down when the lid is closed, stays pushed down even when the lid is open. you just have the spring attached to the thing on the lid that actually pushes the button down, and have it long enough to constantly push the button. eventually. and i think i still have it somewhere. i got a game genie box looking thing that you plug in the back, that will automatically stop the legit game spinning after the copy protection, so you can safely swap discs without doing it while its moving. btw, this technique also works with PS2 games, as its how i used to play my gta san andreas after my disc got too scratched. but with that you have to take the cover off, unscrew the draw, and remove the magnet/plastic disc holder. and just use that by itself to hold your disc in place. i put the legit scratched disc in, and once it loaded up, i could swap it with a copy of the game to play it perfectly fine. whereas just trying to put the copy version in doesnt work. its not really a hack, its just handy if ya discs got too scratched to play, for some reason my dvd rewriter could still copy al the data to a blank dvd just fine, and i could just use that instead. but like i say, you have to load the game up using the original disc.

When i bought a fantastic one from a store, i was shocked to see at home that the cartridge didn't fit/slide in the european "socket"... But all games were in fact 100% compatible, and all you had to do is break two corner plastic pieces on the socket... for the game to physically slide & connect internally! ʕ✧ᴥ✧ʔ Felt like a hacker for 15m! hihihi.

As for that PS1 "hack", well - it's a perfect example to use, because it's simple enough that people actually _get it,_ and it still showcases the primary culprit behind security issues: *assuming something is true when it may not necessarily be.* The PS1 copy protection assumed that a) nobody would swap the disk out in the time between checking authenticity and loading the actual game, and b) that it wouldn't be possible to swap the disk out. For all intents and purposes, the "tray" didn't even factor into the equation. And, as it turns out - _it should have._

Gamecube region switch mod, with two wires soldered onto its mainboard and wired to a simple mini toggle or other switch allowed selection of USA or Japan mode to play Japanese releases on a US console. Later a non hardware fix for this became available, like a bootdisk if I remember correctly. Of course you risked losing your saves if you didn't make sure to have dedicated memory cards for each region, it would automatically format memory cards to the region setting it was currently in... Erasing any saves for the other region.
