    Bungie has hidden secret Ninja Gaiden items in Halo 3, and here are the first shots of them in the flesh.

    Players who've already put too many hours into Halo 3 are running around wearing a Hayabusa-style helmet with a ninja sword on their backs. And it's causing a storm in the forums...

    The sword isn't a usable weapon - so don't get too excited - but it looks cool. And all you have to do to get it is earn all 1000 Achievement Points. So that means you need to locate all the near-impossible-to-find skulls and the helmet is yours too. Easy that!

    Maybe this is why we hear loads of people asking other gamers to help them get multiplayer achievement points BY CHEATING? Shame on all of you! Getting the Overkill achievement will happen in its own good time...

    Bungie has responded to claims that Halo 3 doesn't run in a high-definition resolution by saying saying it's "practically impossible to discern the difference".

    The developer confirmed the lower 1152 x 640 resolution on its website, but went on to clarify that it used two frame buffers to create its final image - an unorthodox technique used to improve dynamic lighting range. Obviously.

    "This ability to display a full range of HDR, combined with our advanced lighting, material and postprocessing engine, gives our scenes, large and small, a compelling, convincing and ultimately 'real' feeling, and at a steady and smooth frame rate, which in the end was far more important to us than the ability to display a few extra pixels," reckons Bungie.

    "In fact, if you do a comparison shot between the native 1152x640 image and the scaled 1280x720, it's practically impossible to discern the difference. We would ignore it entirely were it not for the Internet's propensity for drama where none exists.

    "In fact the reason we haven't mentioned this before in weekly updates, is the simple fact that it would have distracted conversation away from more important aspects of the game, and given tinfoil hats some new gristle to chew on as they catalogued their toenail clippings."

    Halo 3 was released last week on 360, smashing sales records and receiving high scores across the board - especially from us, earning the much coveted 10/10. ...

    VideopSpy v3.0


    A spy leaves no trace behind







    Quote Originally Posted by readme.txt

    Introduction

    Let's face it - sometimes there reasons you'd like to keep some videos and/or
    pictures private on your PSP. VideopSpy lets you keep your sensitive media
    hidden from prying eyes as inconspicuously as possible.



    Summary

    The problem with blocking your media directories is that it looks suspicious
    (not to mention it's inconvenient). That's is the same problem if you have a
    program that asks for a password. A plugin works but then there's a chance
    it could be triggered accidentally. The solution is to create a harmless
    looking application which is, in reality, an application waiting for your
    password to unlock your hidden videos and/or pictures. The program will
    appear in your XMB as a calculator application with the name "BASIC
    Calculator". The calculator program is fully functional and will stand up to
    inspection. The codes must be entered with a specific key sequence preventing
    accidental activation. This version features an (optional) Instant Access
    mode, bypassing the password and unlocking your media immediately.


    How to use it

    The only way to see your private media is to enter the correct code sequence
    into the calculator (or bypass the code with Instant Access).
    The program
    swaps an alternate directory with the regular media directory, which can have
    the effect of replacing your regular media or just adding the hidden files to
    your regular media, depending on the organization of your memory card.
    Running the program again reverses the process, restoring your memory card to
    the state it was before. The advantage of this renaming trick as opposed to
    moving the files is that the former method is drastically faster.


    Controls

    Cross: Push a key
    Left|Right|Up|Down: Select another key
    Square: Quick [+]
    Triangle: Quick [-]
    Circle: Quick [=]
    Start: Exit program
    LTrig+RTrig+Select: Activate Instant Access


    Installation

    1. Copy the Calculator folder to your homebrew directory (probably \PSP\GAME,
    depending on your firmware flavor and settings). The software is designed to
    be run on custom firmware or 1.0. It can be run on 1.5 firmware, however you
    must convert the eboot to 1.5-compatible format using a program like PSP Brew.
    An alternate eboot is provided which does not display any icons in the menu if
    you want it to be less noticeable.

    2. Choose the folders you will be using, and create the alternate
    directories. Use as many or as few as you like. I recommend using 100MNV01&2
    and 101ANV01&2 and/or PHOTO&2 because they are slightly more secure as they
    don't reside on the root and therefore are less likely to be stumbled upon.

    Mode -> If you're using _____ -> Create _____
    (1) -> \MP_ROOT\100MNV01 -> \MP_ROOT\100MNV02 (mp4s)
    (2) -> \MP_ROOT\100ANV01 -> \MP_ROOT\100ANV02 (h264 mp4s)
    (3) -> \MP_ROOT\101ANV01 -> \MP_ROOT\101ANV02 (h264 mp4s)
    (4) -> \VIDEO -> \VIDEO2 (both)
    (5) -> \PSP\PHOTO -> \PSP\PHOTO2
    (6) -> \PICTURE -> \PICTURE2

    3. Put the files you want hidden into the new directories you just made.

    4. Open the "program.dat" file with any basic text editor. This is the
    configuration file. This is where you chose what modes you want to use and
    the pass codes you want. The comments will guide you where to edit. After
    you've set up your modes, you can delete the comments for increased security,
    though you might want to keep a backup. There are also two additional modes
    with affect the behavior of the program:

    (7) Instant Access Mode - Allows the user to press L Trigger + R Trigger +
    Select simultaneously instead of entering the code.
    (8) Authentic Mode - Uses a more authentic display for the calculator.


    Usage - To hide (or unhide) your private media

    1. Run the program
    2a. (Optional) Activate Instant Access and skip to step 6
    2b. Enter the first code, for example "420"
    3. Hit the [=] button
    4. Enter the second code, for example "80"
    5. Hit the [=] button a second time.
    6. A fake error message will flash on the screen for a second. Below the
    error message, at the bottom of the screen, it will show the numbers one
    through six. The active modes will show

    Lordus the author of the very promising Genesis emulator for Nintendo DS called jEnesisDS contacted me last night with regards to getting sound working on his Genesis emulator for the DS. He also gave me some sad news that he is now without a DS because the person who was borrowing him the DS took it back.

    Now until Lordus gets a new DS any updates to jEnesisDS will be put on the sidelines.

    But there is hope if the community and especially those who enjoy his emulator can help out. He has a paypal donation link on his website here http://www.workingdesign.de/

    But also if anyone has a old phat DS they dont want and would be willing to donate towards a goo cause then please contact via the website linked too.

    As soon as i get some paypal funds ill be donating and hopefully others will and support coders who give so much to our scene

    Thanks for your time. ...
