Upgrade? To a no-homebrew firmware? Never,ever.
Did update to 2.71 SE-B" though. All praise to DA for an incredible fw.
Things are a little slow right now. true most things have been done. I look forward to exophase´s releases, wi-fi for NJ´s emus, N64 updates, and of course a homebrew ps1 emu release. Has been a great time though. hopefully it will pick up.
in a last-ditch effort to keep some noobs from updating, may i suggest a series of "coming soon" homebrew ps1 emu pics and vids?:p --sorry but was too funny to not post.Quote:

anyway i'm no noob, but will update if the game selection for sony's emu gets larger and includes the good survival horror games i missed out on.
Besides i've moved on to hacking and homebrewing onto the ds:D sorry to say that even i think the emo ds is more fun than the psp. so my psp is now officially second in my life.
well with coders now deciding not to release there emulators until near perfection i can see why people might upgrade, if the guy whos doing the PS1 emulator wud just release a BETA version then it would give everyone something new to try out instead of watching webcam videos of Ridge Racer.
i come on this site everyday but for the past couple of months the only news is game reviews and sales figures.
Eh,no big deal.It slowed down pretty bad at one point last year then BAM a slew of releases.just think we can install the psp toolchain on the ps3 now :)
A whole new slew of graphical improvement and emus will be coming to linux soon because of the ps3.
I told you guy's sony wants to support homebrew....
it is dying and its dying for one simple reason - all the pre-teen newbie assholes who give the good coders a hard time over there hard work. i mean dont those newbies realise what donation means? it means to give something freely and NOT EXPECT ANYTHING IN RETURN. if the coders decide to give something it should be greatfully accepted (take notes kiddies)
i think the lack of good retail games for the system and the constant firmware battles does wear down the patience of the coders who actually enjoy there work - it would annoy me had i there skill level. to have there work then shat upon from a great height from the great unwashed, well i can see why they would leave - they dont want to maintain a community that doesnt give a shit about there hard work, and who would blame them. we have had our share of asshole coders as well (no names, this isnt a flame war) but we by far until recently had the best coders in any scene. it is a shame the little kiddies cant just stfu and take what there given and like it like we all had to do. discipline these days is down the tubes. anyway rant over you get the point.
does anyone remember how dead the scene seemed right before dark_alex released his downgrader
things come and go its like that
people die and its inevitable and cant be stopped
it was sure gonna happen to the psp scene and if it does it does
I do not think the psp scene is dead:
-most of the system than can be emulated are now fully emulated on the psp...but some are still under development (psp-UAE , multi player on neogeo for exemple)
-n64 and psx (or other 3d arcade board from the same era) will probably be emulated on time emulated at fullspeed...
-psp Homebrew game enter the age of 3d :)... it may take sometime to coder and artist from the scene to adapt...also thoses game are somewhat longer to devellop than 2d games...
so...give it time...:)
wraggerster, why dont u release those WIP youve been testing. What i mean is ask the coders to release the emulators sooner or lter to keep homebrew alive
Well corn, this sucks. I do hope the N64 emu will someday be finished...
