Rumor: Hello World on the PS3 video update

For those of us watching the Sony PlayStation 3 homebrew scene like a hawk, here's some video footage for you to nibble on. Yes, it's video footage of the alleged TIFF exploit discovered by Team ICE, with their ELF 2 SELF tool in action. Suffice to say, this is some very convincing evidence - but as with all ambitious projects like these, until we get further confirmation or more proof, we'll have to file this under rumors for now.

Watching the video, there's definitely room for this to be legitimate - the player manning the controls seems to have selected a particular file that takes quite a good while to load. The screen then goes all black, and the "Hello World" message is shown quite prominently on the top left corner of the screen, for all the world to see.

Again, rumors, but we hope it's true. Imagine the homebrew potential!

Thanks to someone for the tip!

UPDATE:

The ever-vigilant FreePlay appears to have debunked the PS3 video as false. You can find a copy of his post explaining the issue in our forums below, and you can access the full discussion by clicking on the "PS3 Hello World Legit?" link on the upper right portion of the page.
