PsRewired provides emulated infrastructure servers for a limited set of PSP, PS2, and PS3 games. On a real PS3 you reach them by setting a custom DNS, following PsRewired's official PS3 guide.

Use your own legally obtained copy of the game. ROM does not condone illegally downloading ROMs.

Supported PS3 titles listed on psrewired.com are:

  • MotorStorm: Apocalypse
  • Resistance: Fall of Man
  • Resistance 2
  • SOCOM: Confrontation

This guide is only for the PS3 setup on a real console. Check their site for the current list.

Set the DNS

  1. On the XMB, go to Settings, then Network Settings.
  2. Select Custom, then Wired Connection or Wireless Connection. If you use wireless, select your access point and enter your Wi-Fi password.
  3. Set IP Address settings to Automatic.
  4. Set DNS Settings to Manual and enter 67.222.156.250 as the Primary DNS.
  5. Set Secondary DNS to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8.
  6. Enable UPnP.
  7. Verify your settings and save.

Start a supported game and use its online multiplayer option.

If you plan to play games that still have official servers, PsRewired's official PS3 guide says to change DNS settings back to automatic, because those games will more than likely not work through their DNS.
