Firmware 2.82 Released!

[Shrygue]

That was shortly after 2.80 was released. 2.80 still had the TIFF image weakness and a few not all that great features along with the security patch.

2.80 added all the stuff that was listed above....2.81 was released immediatly after the tiff exploit appeared on security protectoin websites.....this has been a few months later and is just a "security update" so my guess again is that they had more time this time to most likely completely re-write the tiff library.

again thats just an educated guess.

Now it's the waiting game to see what the next update is. 2.83 maybe? Or how about 2.90 perhaps? Maybe it could go straight to 3.00, but most probably a lesser number first. I wounder what revisions to security would be added on the next update...

They may have sent this to Rockstar or whoever, Before the released it.

I guess we just have to wait and see..

Yeah seriously and we knew the update was coming for a week or so. That was on the consumer channels. Industry wise, the update could have been complete 2 to 3 weeks ago, maybe even a month ago.

Obviously we'll see when VCS comes out. But I wouldn't rule it out entirely. Not to mention, simply changing the Firmware requirement in the SFO is a enough to stop it from working on a lesser firmware PSP. Rockstar could have put in 2.82, knowing full well that the update was coming a few days before VCS' arrival in stores.

That wont stop the homebrewers but its enough to make any Sony drones update.

About DevHook, I agree with Veskgar on this one. Its better for Booster to wait until 3.00 hits. Imagine that $#@!, 3.00 gets out, BAM we got it devhooked. Not only do we smack Sony in the face for getting the legit PSone emu, but we'll also have our homebrew one when that comes out.

Well, GTA:LCS did have the gave save exploit in the unpatched UMD game sold before June this year. I suppose it would be logical to say that the same exploit might be there in the upcoming GTA:VCS. Just guessing in any case though.

As for Booster, has anyone heard from him yet?

So long VCS

[jamesmc3stripe]

i slagged QJ last week for bringing up rummors for this lol, i feel ashamed lol

[Shrygue]

In any case, new firmware updates that come out will get cracked - no matter how long it could take. 2.50/2.60 was luck with the GTA:LCS gave save exploit, 2.71 was like forever but for me, it was worth the wait to downgrade.

OMG! not another one........SONY really is sooo stupid!!!!

[YourStillWithMe]

why are all of you so amped about VCS? its the same friggin game every time!!!!!!!!!!!! all thats news is a couple of voices,weapons, and cars and you guys are set for a whole year even longer. The multiplayer is stupid, the same concept, story, that game died as soon as San Andreas came out it was a black GTA seriously, were you honestly entertained with that game? It doesnt take much to entertain people these days.
