Cobra Team is hard at work in the getting their PS3 ODE ready for a February launch

The Cobra team has recently contacted us with exclusive info on their upcoming new product the ODE - Optical Drive Emulator for the PS3 and just looking at the features, you can quickly see that it will be THE only PS3 ODE to purchase for your gaming needs!


Cobra ODE is THE optical drive emulator for PS3!

In the past Cobra brought ground breaking features and unparalleled support to the PS3 scene with its Cobra USB dongle.

Now we're back with the Cobra Optical Drive Emulator for PS3. Run game and movie ISO's from any PS3* without the need to restrict your console to running on a CFW. This brings freedom of choice for the SEN, original games and functionality of the Cobra ODE without hassle or complication. A switch allows user to toggle between use of the original BD drive or the emulator.

* Stocks of Cobra ODE will start shipping next month (February) *
