I completely agree with you. I personally think being able to play PSX games using your PSP is a killer app.
I'm on my second PSP now. My first I downgraded to 1.5 and the homebrew scene was bursting with new innovations. The one thing I always wanted for a PSP was the ablility to play the Final Fantasy games (mostly VII, VIII & IX). Seeing that it wasn't going to happen I sold it.
Now I've bought a new one because of the PS3's ability to stream selected PSX games to the PSP. To my amazement, DAX has given us 3.03OE-A and we can just use popstation and play these old, yet excellent games for free. Presumably this is alright because I legally own every PSX game I'm ripping?
For me the scene is just kicking off!
I cannot thank these amazing coders for all the efforts they have put into the PSP to date. All the people Wally previously mentioned, (and the ones he forgot!).
Thanks everyone!!!
We now have fullspeed PSX emulation, what more could you want? People would have been drooling at this had it been a year ago. Let's be thankful for the coders (hence something in my sig) and what they have given us. The PSP in general would be nothing without the coders.
jon_boy_uk: ripping your PSX games is legal, and nice sig
Its not a app, its a emulator/interpretor that is within the firmware that enables emulation of ps1 games via the psp.Quote:

Aside from that - yes you're right the scene has been off for well over a year now, i just said 'for me' as in all i really wanted was psx emulation :o)
I'm really glad to hear ripping my PSX games is legal! I thought as much, but I just wanted to check :thumbup:
So then, how long till I can play FFX on it? J/K!
no harm done :pQuote:

There are many great members thru-out the psp scene, but some are out to ruin it im affraid......
But as it stands n64 is the last thing to be done, strrrnnmm gotten close, but not perfect....
How I would love to play Golden Eye 64 on a PSP. I totally agree though, some people are SO impatient it makes me sick!
I was just checking out 2.81 downgrades on google because my g/f wants to play mario....of course there's nothing yet. But I saw posts like:
"WHEN IS SOMEONE GOING TO MAKE A 2.81 DOWNGRADER? THE CODERS OUT THERE ARE SO ******G SLOW. PSP'S ARE CRAP"
Crikey! If I was a coder, I'd think sod it I'll not bother. This is all free and frankly if I had to pay a coder for it, I would. As it is, I don't so I'll send virtual hugs and kisses where necessary. (j/k)
I mean I'm au fait with PC's and programming etc, but when it comes to firmwares etc....daymn...
Someone musta bricked some PSP's in the process of finding these hacks!
Again, thanks you lovely lovely coding-type people.:thumbup:
Hmm, wally made some good points but if anything I think there has recently been a igh point around christmas with emulator upgrades and what not. It's sad when you go to a forum and someone says ( wow, great work, now could you add..........) so I know exactly where wallies comming from. Seriously though, with all the great stuff out now, what else, besides an n64 emulator (fullspeed)would really kick the scene into a frenzy like the psx emulator. Just saying, I think the scene has seen its' prime come and go.
Well, its all in how you approach coding and what your doing. I don't truely know C/C++ but i know a small bit. Dark_Alex first decrypted the 3.03 firmware. Then he must have some how interpreted Sony's code. (which is truely amazing if you blind to what which code means in a unfamiliar coding language). Then he must have went about adding hacks to run your own ps1 games and such without the use of a ps3......Quote:

Yes, he even siad that he got a couple of brick psp's thru his downdater programs and his firmware updates. So partialy reembursing him in some way would be nice.
the psp is amazing.
when i baught it i had one umd.
i never played it until i got my memory stick and
i downgraded it . what a diffrence
A system that can do anything i thought
what Cant a psp do.
and if this scene dies out . im happy with what i got now. I truly admire those who help this happen.
