What, were you guys expecting positive comments? you should know better. Also, expecting an in-depth analysis of the homebrew scene from a I've-never-seen-these-things-but-I'll-write-about-them-anyway-journalist?
No, he wasn't bought by $ony he's just ignorant.
What's the real % of psp users that use homebrews or iso, 10%, 15% :rolleyes:
probably slightly higher than that. I'd say the ratio of psp users who use homebrew and those who dont is nearer 50/50
I think you are talking out of your ass with those figures. Look how many psps have been sold, millions. and how many hits sites like pspnews and the other psp homebrew sites get. Millions per day? No. Not even millions of downloads.
I bet the hb community accounts for less than 10% of the worldwide psp community.
MikeDX is probably right... I Imagine a huge sum of people that own psp's are >12 years of age. I my experiance very few younger kids know jack about homebrew development, emulation, etc because they dont exactly know what to look for. (though I was like 10 when i got into emulation :))
I imagine alot of you got into the whole homebrew scene via emulators. Everyone at some point thought "Man, wouldnt it be cool if you could play SNES on PC?" and then googled, or searched altavista or yahoo for it and discovered you could.
The DC really started the MODERN console homebrew scene and Alot of us older peoples got started with the DC, however the xbox's scene was also a huge success.
The point is, not everyone is bright enough to... read a readme and figure this out. I imagine alot of people would think it is too difficult to get into this type of thing.
That is so true when i tell my friends about homebrew stuffQuote:

sony does't wan't to allow homebrew because it can brick your psp and hacker will always make virus's to kill there time i mean if sony would allow home brew they would do it themself for example the psone emulator commig out on the psp
