Will the PSP-3000 Defeat Homebrew?

With good internet speed, it should only take a week, only a day if you have MS or RS premium accounts. And many people use smaller ISOs with movies ripped.

you could have a oc48, doesnt mean crap if the torrent is only seeding at 12kb

4 mil a week?

really now, you can count the games actually worth buying on 1 hand for the entire year ... 4 mil a week in what magic beans

or piles of bull$#@! every lazy ass software developer that puts out crap on the psp

you dont sell crap, this is just an easy way to blame your piss poor sales on something else besides your piss poor software

you couldn't be more right man

poor software = poor sales = blame it on hackers and homebrew why we didn't got rich

[jrsmaster411]

piracy = poor software, most developers don't want to work on the psp because of the piracy problem, you sound like your defending piracy

A wise man once said, if it's good, people will buy it. People are getting sick of the "make it look better, over game play quality" attitude.

PSP has many great games. However, great new releases are becoming rare. Why would developers spend the extra time and money on a product that thousands will download anyway? I looked up God of War on a torrent site. It has over 90,000 downloads. And that is just a fraction of total downloads of the game. How can you say piracy is not affecting softwares?

Two months, maybe four. The fact that it still has to have the same basic framework as the 1000 and 2000 will be a liability.

Maybe the Lumines thing will "accidentally" open back up.

people that say that piracy is a result of bad games and lack of good games are kidding themselves.

Would we really want homebrew on the new psp ??

we could use our psp slims and phats for that

dunno, look at the PS3, still not hacked, i don't see why the psp would be any different

you got it backwards bad games are the result of piracy. Nobody wants to make a game for psp if everyones just gonna download it for free, hopefully nobody hacks this new psp and maybe developers will have faith in the psp and we start seeing more great games.

thank you

i would agree with that but MY GOD there has always been the most half assed port of games for the psp

need for speed underground was the first game i bought, my judgement based on the pc version and the ps2 version

why the heck does the ps2 version have a story mode and the psp didnt????

thats like 80% of the game, cut the crap video cut-scenes (or atleast degrade their quality) to give us THE GAME...

pure ass

i totally agree, i was tired of that crap on the PS1, final fantasy 8 did that to me

your looking at 1 single year old game that was the biggest thing to EVER hit the psp, what about the other hundred games released last year, that are now in the "4.99$" bargain bin

yes piracy does hurt, does it hurt more on the ps2 or the xbox where they had hits after hits after hits, or 1 game out out maybe 10 that was worth actually buying, and playing for more than a day?

Would we really want homebrew on the new psp ??

NO we dont

why ???

because then no game developer can blame their poor sales on piracy, and then they could look at what a crappy PS1 reject they made (simpsons game im looking right at you, you embarrass the ps1, and you control worse than a 32x)
