I would imagine jail breaking modern PlayStations and Xboxes would not be as interesting as the PS3 or Xbox 360. The modern generations are too close to PCs. I miss the time when console makers were also making interesting CPUs and, sometimes, GPUs.

BTW, what would be the specs for a Xbox 360? I remember the PS3 was a rather limited Linux workstation because it lacked RAM (and tge hypervisor limited access to the GPU - a limitation gone when jailbroken), but I haven’t read much about the 360 and its own weird PowerPC.
