You guys want the games to stop freezing on you use 3.02 OEB...... If you use 3.03 dont use compression it only causes more problems than it solves not all games like the compression so try that. Most games work compressed but some are fickle... Don't compress them. As far as the location free player there is not enough room on the flash for it. If you want it then you can upgrade a regular PSP with the Sony EBOOT of course you lose all emulation and iso capabilities and most likely won't be able to downgrade but, if you have the money for a second PSP then this might be your only hope. besides I buy all my UMD's and convert them myself and have a 3.03 regular unit as well as my 3.02 OE-B unit. The only reason I use ISO's or CSO's is the speed advantage God the UMD load tmes are rediculous...........

FFVII works great for me. I dont have FFVIII though.

That problem isnt up to Dark_Alex to fix. Its up to Sony. Sony wrote the PS1 emulator we are using not Dark_Alex. And as we are running games not specifically made to run with the PS1 emulator the answer is to not hold your breath.

Most games work flawlessly, unfortunately Resident Evil 2 is not one of them.

That is true but I think a lot of people don't realize it. It seems like SONY will likely end up adding to and upgrading their built in PSX emu with future firmware updates.

The big question will it be fairly easy to just apply the PSX part of the firmware to future 3.03 OE updates or will a new custom firmware be needed every time SONY releases one.
