Very Interesting News, as soon as any more news appears we will have it.

EDIT: Firstly people, i didnt know anything about this until a few minutes before posting the News, so i do not know the answer to half of your questions.

Thirdly, the PSX emu hack lets you share with other people, which means you can play PS1 games without a PS3, however, the games have to be the ones gotten from the playstation store and distributing them is illegal.

Finally, i do not know if Dark_AleX is working on this, but my guess is that he is, as this is basically a sooped up version of 2.71 SE. This is 2.71 SE with 3.02 instead of 2.71

I predict 10,000 noobs asking where to download the PSX isos after this comes out... and my PM box to overflow, like with PS1P.... Time to fill my pm box....

Anyway, awesome news, especially considering I just got a PS3 !!!

The news about UMD-region free is great, lol.
Sounds kinda funny but that is how I got into the homebrew scene, by trying to find an app that would allow the use of import UMD's, only now does it look like this will be availiable, thanks a lot Mathieulh and Co, good work.
