Looking to rip PS3 titles for testing (and FAQ down?)

It's kind of like Saturn - in some games the missing files may block audio from playing, but in others they may just cause a freeze/crash upon startup. Most games currently will definitely require cellSre and cellSpursJq Low Level Emulated to make most games run.

I don't know if your bluray drive will be able to decrypt PS3 games. A perfect example of PS3 emulation would be Arkedo Swap, which is completely playable and will be missing only audio without some modules LLE'd. You'll need the .rap decryption file though.

If you're interested, I made a small guide here on how to get games from a PS3.

Definitely what I was looking for. If that + info on PC rips + that "google it" PSN approach you were mentioning were all in one place, that's what I was really hoping to find. Given that my google search for "rip PSN games for rpcs3" gave this very thread as the ninth result... I'm thinking such a thing does not quite exist yet.

But this is a good start! I'd love to see a more thorough/clean list of the pros/cons for ripping via PS3 vs PC somewhere (there's some good content over in this thread), like, say, the FAQ but for now I'll take the scraps I can find here and there.

Thank you!

EDIT: Oh, and this link also keeps popping up, which still doesn't explain ripping titles, but does give some details and downloads for getting encryption figured out: "Testing and running Arledo’s Swap in RPCS3 requires you to own a copy of the game, know how to rip it, and acquire a decrypted version of the game’s key.edat, which you can do with edat3tool, or PS3 Tools"
