What is Homebrew?
Homebrew is any game or application written for a platform that does not typically allow user-created programs to run.
How to Install a Homebrew PKG
The vast majority of homebrew will come in a single file in .pkg format. To install this do the following:
- Copy the .pkg to the root of your USB stick.
- Insert the USB stick into your PS3.
- Go to "Install Package Files" under the games tab.
- Select the package you wish to install.
Your homebrew app or game will now appear under the games tab.
