I have a console on 4.72 with this problem... after i update to 4.74 and use this exploit will i be able to play 5.05 games like god of war?

You can play games that registered for 4.74 or below & hope to see a new game work in newer fwjb

@BwE I have a PS4 that I brought with a broken bluray drive and even after a chip swap it still will not work (I can't remember the exact error it gives its been on the shelf for a long time now). It accepts disc even displays the game name but when you go to launch the game it errors. It is like the drive is not married to the mainboard correctly anymore.

I am hoping this may help it become at least semi usable again.

@mawhatt
Yeah dude you got scammed. Game shows up but doesn't boot = divorced chip.

I think there's times when it will show unknown disc etc also...

This is great news to bring the consoles stuck behind up to speed. Very similar to PS3 releases.

Thank you CelesteBlue for your hard work and dedication to keep scene alive!

Still unstable and ps4 crashing on awaiting payload screen.
