Sony Issue Cease and Desist Order For Devhook

[eLAy12]

Sony needs to stop and recognize that Homebrew is PSP. Sony needs to embrace the homebrew scene. If they do, i would be happy to pay $1-$5 for legal Sony supported applications. The Homebrew scene and Sony need to merge so that we can unlike the FULL power of the PSP.

I love it when people talk like sony will allow unsigned code to run legaly and authorized..



Heres an idea. Go to gamestop, and find one of those arcade emulator pack games for any platform, then notice that pricetag on it, then have your revealation about sales, and money.


then shut the hell up forever

OK so sony shut down a site in japanese i i barely understood anyway, booster can just as easily release devhook via irc/ftp/ and a ton of otherweb sites,
Sony can such a big fat *OC*

theres only one way to skin a cat, a but million tool to do it with.

How much sooner until Sony starts cracking down on other sites? I gurantee that PSP-Hacks is next, since they host the DevHook Full install, which installs DevHook, 2.7 firmware and comes with 2.6 firmware.

People, you must also look at why Sony went against DevHook developers.

Reboot_1.50.bin is the copyrighted material by SONY, that is mixed with DevHook0.43fix.

A simple oversight of DevHook developers may have resulted in this. But Sony benefits regardless, now with Devhook stopped at the source, they can ensure that firmware 3.0 cannot be emulated.

Couldn't come a worse time...

Rather hard not to see it that way when Sony gave us homebrew on the PS2 and promised us homebrew on the PS3.

Why should PSP be any different?

[yaustar]

Because they havent got round to it yet? How long was it between the launch of the PS2 and PS2 Linux? Or the PS1 and Yarouze?

Also you have to look at this from the business angle, how the heck do you convince all the stockholders that running unsigned code on the PSP where the main company (Sony) has no control over? I am sure that will go down well with the stockholders [/sarcasm]

[Hungry Horace]

yawn. I'm bored. You're boring Zoidberg.





replace zoidberg with Sony, and you get my view of this.... so what? it'll change sod all.

Well theres a entire mameframe and billions of web sites its not going to be stoped. Why doesnt sony drop there ridiculous prices for there upcoming PS3 games 75 to 85 usd thats just going to make coders work harder.
