2.7 games on the 1.5 firmware?

**goldenmage** · June 25th, 2006, 17:54

I am a proud owner of a 1.5 fw PSP and I was wondering, does flashmod enable UMDs that require a 2.7 fw update on 1.5 fw? I was thinking of buying field commander and I didn't want to buy it unless it would work on my 1.5 fw PSP.

oh well, maybe I'll buy another PSP for those games...but I don't have the money...

Devhook changes required UMD versions above 2.00 back down to 2.00 so you can emulate 2.50 and run the 2.70 game which had been tricked to version 2.00.

I think that its possable for 1.5 to run 2.7 UMD's... but we have a good while to wait for the someone to come by and create a program to do just that. Some 2.6 UMD's can be ran on 1.5 so why not 2.7?

Well I don't know for sure, but does Field Commander run on the 2.6 fw or the 2.7? If it requires the 2.6 then I have no problem.

devhook is making a lot of progress they have 5 releses so far there up to version 0.41d so its all a matter of time./

No it's not, no matter how good devhook gets it will not be able to emulate 2.7 without a 2.7 firmware dump of which there is no why to get right now. Once there is a way to dump the 2.7 firmware then 2.7 games will be playable on a 1.5.

just wait dude. the newest games will be able to run on 1.50. like acidburn05 said "its only a matter of time". meanwhile, keep yourself busy with another game, by the you finish it there may be another devhook release.
