Currently, there is no mod chip designed for the PS3 to play backup copies of games. I haven’t seen any news on the forums or news-boards of major mod-chip producers, however, that doesn’t mean they aren’t working on something. As a note, if / when they do mod the PS3, whether it be via a chip or a firmware upgrade, PS3 games are burned to Blu-Ray disks because of the amount of data they can store and the quality of the video being played. This means you will need to get a Blu-Ray burner as well as blank dual-layer Blu-Ray disks which currently run at around $30 per blank disk.
