I couldn't help but laugh at this article. I don't know if Sony would be THAT generous

[Saracchini]

I will think about this when Sony release a free and oficial SDK . I never buy portable devices which dont allow me run my own programs.

AND

The PSP Sucks.
There are no developers for the future because we can't practice when we're young on the PSP.
No one buys PSP's anymore, Hardware sales plummet, Sony loses tons of money, and never releases a PSP2.

[JoeyStitch]

Yeah, somehow I doubt all of that would happen.

i think a good reason why psp games are not that great now is because a lot of developers are nervous about piracy etc. Thats understandable. But we have a big homebrew community and sony is dishing out newer sony psp which are harder to hack. In my opinion the psp-3000 is giving a chance for developers to say "Hey its safer now to develop with these milions of new psp's sold because they are almost impossible to hack. Thats what i hope happens soon. Homebrew is very nice no doubt but piracy on it is killing new and original games for the psp.
I have cfw myself and have done my share of stuff with it but i really really would like to see something new and fresh other than 10 year old games.... The PSP is said that it will last 10 years on the market. Hopefully they will make it so that is NEAR impossible to hack, not unhackable. Giving leadway for developers to do stuff for it.

lmao. too true

Piracy is a scapegoat. There has always been piracy and there will always be piracy.

sony could do all that now

they just wont, and blame the "evil hackers"

when its mostly the "evil hackers" that drive sales

proof? look at the hardware sales vs the non existant software sales
